Premetto che sono di parte, perchè quelle logge hanno popolato il mio immaginario di bambino attraverso i film della saga.... ma detto questo ieri sono arrivato al caffè Don Camillo dopo 5 ore di guida in moto, e sono stato confortato da un super piatto di salumi locali ed un rinfrescante Lambrusco, ottimi per riprendere il lungo viaggio con il ricordo dei sapori della Riva Destra del Po.

Un buon locale in centro a Brescello Sono stato in questo bar con la mia ragazza in occasione di un fine settimana a Brescello. Abbiamo provato il locale sia per un aperitivo serale sia per la colazione mattutina. Questo esercizio commerciale si trova nella piazza centrale del paese di fronte alla chiesa e sul lato destro del Municipio. Sono presenti molti tavoli anche all'esterno. L'interno è arredato in vecchio stile, si respira un'atmosfera quasi fuori dal tempo. Sulle pareti sono appese fotografie tratte dai film di Don Camillo e Peppone. Il locale propone anche piatti caldi durante le ore dei pasti. Io ho preso uno spritz per aperitivo e un tè accompagnato da una cheesecake alla nocciola per colazione. Le porzioni sono generose e ho trovato tutto molto buono. I prezzi sono molto buoni ed economici.

Wir sitzen an dem Platz,an dem Don Camillo auf eine Provokation hin eine Schlägerei anfängt und mit einem Tisch um sich wirft. Das Personal ist sehr aufmerksam und freundlich, ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Die empfohlenen Speisen sind ausgezeichnet und günstig noch dazu. Man hat sofort das Gefühl, als Freund behandelt zu werden. Ich kann jedem Brescellobesucher nur eine Einkehr in diesem Caffe' empfehlen.

Wir wurden sehr freundlich und schnell bedient. Das Essen war hervorragend und günstig. Der Platz hat natürlich besonders für Liebhaber der Don Camillo Filme einen ganz besonderen Reiz.

Waren hier schon ein paar mal und uns hat heute ein junger Mann bedient. Der Service war sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Ein Vorteil wenn das Italienisch nicht ganz sitzt, er konnte sich auch in Englisch gut verständigen. Das Essen kam zügig und war ausgezeichnet. Die Getränke, wie ein Aperol Spritz rundeten den gemütlichen Abend ab. Preislich war alles im Rahmen, für die Portionen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
