ristorazione — Albano Laziale · Lazio
In the Castelli Romani, where the lanes of Albano Laziale converge on the Duomo, an artisan pastry shop has kept the flavours of this land for generations. The sign is simple, the location unmistakable: directly opposite the cathedral, at number 7 Via De Gasperi.
The entrance opens onto a place many locals from Albano have known since childhood, brought here by a parent's hand. Family-run management has passed down gestures and recipes without interruption, building a loyalty measured in decades. The outdoor tables, facing the church square, make a stop here part of the daily rhythm of the historic centre.
Behind the counter, rows of maritozzi with raisins worked into the dough: large, soft, filled with cream right to the edge. They are the signature product, the one people travel from outside the province just to try. Alongside them, flaky croissants — especially the one filled with dark chocolate cream — complete a breakfast that leaves nothing to be desired.
The ovens speak of in-house production, where every dough is made on site in the workshop. The mosto doughnuts (made with grape must) appear only in season, tied to the calendar of the Lazio grape harvest: those who have tried them describe them as unlike any other version they know. The mixed berry millefoglie, available to order, brings this same artisan care to the tables of special occasions.
From breakfast to cakes made to order, this page gathers the full offering of Pasticceria Al Duomo along with the details for reaching it.
