Osteria

THE CONCEPT

We aim to bring the smells, flavors and atmosphere of traditional Bolognese taverns back to life in modern-day Bologna, a lively city with a deep sense of its own history.
A place perfectly suited to hotel guests from all over the world who are welcomed in an international style while at the same time finding all the local and traditional ingredients that are the city’s hallmarks.
Our project focuses on Bologna, its distinctive cuisine and conviviality, in order to rediscover a rich and important gourmet tradition and the pleasure of spending time together.

HISTORY

It was already standing in 1375. With its six hundred years of history, the Osteria del Cappello is a historical symbol of food and hospitality in Bologna.
The tavern was praised by Giuseppe Maria Mitelli, one of Guercino’s apprentices, for its fine cuisine: “exquisite roasted partridges covered in lard and accompanied by garnished toasted bread” (from "Gioco delle Osterie").

In 1800 Alfonso Cappelli and his son became the innkeepers and definitively established the tavern as a reference point for foreigners coming to Bologna as well as city residents enamored of home-cooked flavors: home-style cooking, an excellent selection of wines from Romagna, Tuscany and Piedmont and Lambrusco from Sorbara together with elegant rooms and electric lighting and heating won Cappello Rosso its reputation as a place where both palate and limbs could find comfort and satisfaction.

Bottega

“A heaping dish of tagliatelle cures all ills”

….where our sfogline still roll out pasta dough the old way, with a rolling pin.

Our Bottega is located only a step away from the Osteria, a small artisanal fresh pasta and dessert workshop where you can buy regional products and take our courses to learn about pasta rolled out with a rolling pin!
