Un bar museo. Accogliente e ben arredato. Consiglio di andare, anche solo per vedere l'ambientazione che merita. Da un caffè, a un aperitivo, a una tisana il titolare soddisfa ogni esigenza.

Il locale è storico ma non c'è alcun intento apologetico. È un piccolo museo. Il personale è cordialissimo, il cibo è buono, il luogo è ben curato e vicino al centro. Ottimo!!!

Ci sono due elementi principali che convivono in questo luogo, che sarebbe riduttivo chiamare solo bar. Il primo é quello storico visto che una volta entrati ci si rende conto di essere in un piccolo museo che riporta immagini e iconografie dell'Italia Mussoliniana. Il secondo é quello del bar e della piccola ristorazione che sono comunque ottimi. Consigliato e assolutamente originale.

Locale stupendo, personale gentilissimo e le brioche al marzapane sono squisite. Non avrei mai conosciuto questo posto se non fosse stato per una persona molto cara che mi ci ha portato. Grazie e ci tornerò ogni volta che verrò in questa bella cittadina di Forlì.

Un museo della storia del Ventennio, una collezione privata che supera qualsiasi museo pubblico. Veramente lodevole la proprietà per aver saputo trovare pezzi così rari e legati al territorio. Ovviamente servizio e menù sono assolutamente in linea e diventa un piacere sorseggiare un ottimo cappuccino mentre si imparano dettagli di una storia poco nota e mal scritta.
