What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners rave about Vinarkia Della Pavona's vibrant atmosphere, expertly crafted cocktails, and extensive wine selection, often highlighting the affordability of local wines. The friendly and knowledgeable staff enhance the experience, making guests feel welcome. While primarily a bar, the food, including charcuterie boards and eggplant parmigiana, is also praised as delicious.
"We quite enjoyed this small but cozy wine bar and restaurant. Small outdoor seating, cozy bar area, a few inside tables, and some garden-like outdoor seating. Friendly staff and several good wine options for under €10 per glass. Also, beer on tap. The food menu is small with only a limited number of options. It get more crowded as it gets later! Of course!
We will be back!"

"Cozy outdoor terrace restaurant with excellent food and local charm
A hidden gem in the old town. I had the Eggplant Parmigiana and it was absolutely delicious, full of flavour and perfectly prepared. The recommended red wine from the region paired wonderfully with the dish, and I finished with a refreshing Limoncello.
The outdoor terrace was peaceful and inviting; the atmosphere was relaxed. Service was warm and attentive throughout.
Price-performance is excellent, especially for such a central location. I would happily come back!"

"We chose Vinarkia fairly spontaneously, but were so glad we did after two hours of wonderful service and fantastic drinks.
The team are both welcoming and informed, so if you're coming to take advantage of their wine credentials you won't be disappointed. We were there for a couple of spritz before dinner, and honestly one you've had a couple here you'll realise the difference with the many others you'll be served around town... these are people who care about the drinks they serve.
It's also just a brilliant vibe. Great playlist, and lots of opportunity for people watching. The charcuterie boards looked delicious from a distance as well.
Were we not here for only a night, we'd be back straight away."

The Best Bars In The Tuscan City Of Lucca, Italy
Zingy cocktails and a huge selection of Italian wines are poured each night at this vintage-glam wine bar and shop, with a heavily beamed ceiling, glossy dark-wood booths and hanging baskets and barrels by the entrance. Wines by the glass are hugely affordable and owners Nicola and Rebecca are happy to make recommendations. You may want to spice things up with the rum-based Marley Fizz, blitzed with passionfruit and tonka beans, or the watermelon- and Campari-laced Mamacita.
In Search of the Best Negroni in Lucca
It is cosy in winter and the outdoor areas are lovely at other times of the year. The front is good for people watching, but there is also a back garden with melon trees. Mainly a wine bar, although they have a small, changing cocktail menu which always has delicious options, including a Negroni riff, often an infusion of some sort.
Restaurants and Bars in Lucca
This is a lovely wine bar in Lucca which offers free apertivio with your drink. The buffet included breads, pizza, salads and rice, which is a great way to warm up your stomach before dinner. There are cosy booths to enjoy your drinks and, for us, play cards.
