A restaurant serving good food at reasonable prices. At lunch it has many local workers who come in and just have the menu del giorno - but there is a very good choice if needed, with excellent fish and meat. The pasta is also home made.The owner looks for his own porcini mushrooms when in season, and sticks a sign outside saying "Funghi porcini frescha". Also sells pizzas, cooked in a woodburning oven.
Via Duchessa di Genova 47/A
Stresa Tel:0323 30266
It is on the corner of the road that leads to the station.
A cafe/bar with wonderful snacks and coffee at very reasonable prices - 2 cappucinos and 2 krafens (like doughnuts) at half the price of 2 cappucinos near St Marks. We heard Italians coming out and agreeing that the coffee was excellent - a real complement.
On Campo San Stefano, near Accademia bridge and Vaporetto stop.
