Antico Travaglio
Tavern and ice cream shopThe Osteria Gelateria Antico Travaglio is located within the walls of the Castle of Monteriggioni, in a suggestive and fascinating medieval setting. Our story begins in 1998 by the will of Fabrizio, owner and inspirer of the cuisine, and the restaurant was born in the expertly renovated rooms of an old stable, then a blacksmith's workshop, as if to underline the profound connection with our history and this wonderful city. Since then, we have offered you the opportunity to spend moments of absolute relaxation in a timeless atmosphere. Our fresh pasta is all home-made, as are the desserts.
The second courses are cooked following ancient traditions, where grilled meat is the restaurant's signature dish, like the classic Fiorentina steak. The homemade naturally leavened bread pays homage to our strictly local cured meats and cheeses; furthermore, a small but careful selection of Tuscan red wines accompanies our dishes and delights your palate for any occasion you wish to spend with us, from a quick snack to the most important lunch or dinner or even for a romantic after-dinner at inside our garden.
