ristorazione — Zanè · Veneto
On the plains at the foot of the Vicenza hills, in Zanè, Locanda 61 occupies number 61 on Via Trieste with the simplicity of a place that needs no introduction: the door is open, the table is set, and the smell of artisanal bruschetta arrives before any word does.
The entrance to Locanda 61 promises no ceremony: it promises real welcome. The family-run spirit is felt from the first step in — an informal setting where the staff, described by many guests as kind and professional, turn every visit into something close to a homecoming. Even Birillo, the house dog, adds to that sense of welcome that no menu alone can guarantee.
Every day at midday the dining room fills with workers from the area: Locanda 61 offers a set-menu lunch service with daily changing main courses, a fixed thirteen-euro menu valued for its quality and price. It's no ordinary canteen — it's the place where, as one regular customer puts it, it's always a pleasure to stop by, and where the outdoor tables stretch the visit a little longer on fine days.
The wood-fired oven is the heart of the kitchen: it heats the pizzas with traditional baking and, above all, turns out the artisanal bruschetta that has become the house specialty. Generous in size and carefully made — guests call them phenomenal — the bruschette at Locanda 61 are the ones people remember, and the reason they come back, evening after evening.
Italian cuisine with meat and fish specialities, evening events with live music, and an atmosphere you don't forget: the page tells the rest.
