We are very lucky in Ponte a Serraglio to have Bar Italia. It is open from early in the morning until late at night every day of the year. I go every morning for coffee when I am in Ponte a Serraglio, a perfect start to the day.
Recently, owner and barista extraordinaire, Annalisa, took over the Tabacchi beside the bar. The space is being renovated and will reopen soon as an extension of Bar Italia. All Tabacchi services and some new ones will return with the opening on 5th April.
Bar Italia will close from 24th March until 5th April in order to complete the final renovation work. I will certainly miss my morning coffee and aperitivo at Bar Italia!
Bella Bagni di Lucca 
Wonderful place, we went there every morning when staying in BDL a few years ago….
I agree! I love it.
oh wow… looking forward to seeing pictures. I always enjoyed that very eclectic little shop.
I will be here for the opening, it will be fun.
it’s a great place – best pastries – wish them all the best
It is indeed, it is the life and soul of Ponte a Serraglio.
Congratulations, Annalisa! I can’t wait to visit again and see the expansion! Bar Italia was a daily highlight for me when visiting Bagni di Lucca. It was so nice to see people sitting and chatting with one another instead of on their phones!
Bar Italia is a great place to meet friends!
