ristorazione — Molina Aterno · Abruzzo
Molina Aterno is a village on the Aterno river, among the mountains of the Aquilano, where the historic centre holds its square like a natural stage. In Piazza San Nicola di Bari, Piccolomini Café reopened its doors in May 2025, bringing the heart of the community back to life.
The door of Piccolomini Café opens onto Piazza San Nicola di Bari, in the heart of the historic centre of Molina Aterno. Run by Pacitti Roberta with family care, the place has become the point of reference for the village in the Aquilano: somewhere to stop, to meet, to belong.
The counter is the centre of gravity at Piccolomini: the coffee machine always on, a display case of pastries, and service that feels like home. The café is the village's daily ritual, the morning greeting and the afternoon break, in a place that chose, above all, to be somewhere to belong.
When evening falls over the square, Piccolomini changes pace: porchetta sandwiches come out of the kitchen from eight o'clock, the big screen lights up for the matches, and DJ nights bring Piazza San Nicola to life until late. The village in the Aquilano finds its gathering place once again.
