All'Ombra
della Piazza
Behind a natural wine or a craft beer there are people, faces and stories. That's where All'Ombra della Piazza comes from.
“Behind a natural wine or a craft beer, a special flour or a slowly risen dough, there are people — with a face, a voice, a smile and a story that is different every time. Quality comes from people, from hands and from the heart, before it comes from things.”
That's where All'Ombra della Piazza comes from.

The counter
Cicchetti
1 piece — €1.50Our cicchetto brings together two passions: the Verona-style tartina and the Venetian cicchetto. From the tartina we kept the beauty and the softness, from the Venetian cicchetto the fragrance — building a bread that keeps the topping soft and turns crisp in the oven. The Ombra cicchetto is a small work of art: a painting where the ingredients are the colours and our hands are the brushes.
The flavours
- Marcolin creamed salt cod, Leccine olives
- Marcolin creamed salt cod, oven-baked potatoes
- Marcolin creamed salt cod, oven-baked radicchio
- Stracciatella cheese, sun-dried cherry tomato, oregano
- Stracciatella cheese, anchovy, baked escarole, oregano
- Stracciatella cheese, friarielli greens, fig and orange jam
…and many more flavours, changing all the time with the seasons.
Mini pizzas
Small as a hand, 24 hours of rising, 150 grams of highly hydrated dough: that's why it loves a final pass in the oven for maximum fragrance. Ingredients are everything: cheeses, cured meats and vegetables prepared daily. Beyond taste, we like to create beauty — “you eat with your eyes first”.
