About
Pasticceria Morlacchi, a historic family‑run pastry house in Zanica near Bergamo, has been delighting locals and visitors for over five decades. It marries the tradition of the sweetest Italian confections with a modern café and restaurant venue that invites guests to savor both artisanal pastries and a seasonal menu of savory dishes. The shop’s open kitchen and glass‑front cafe serve freshly baked breads, biscotti, hot drinks, and a daily selection of panettoni, colombe, and Torrone, while the dining area offers a la carte plates featuring locally sourced ingredients and creative aperitivo cocktails. Travelers can experience the full cycle of the art of pastry: from the laboratory behind the counter to the elegant tables in the restaurant, and finally the shop where guests can purchase gifts or take‑away treats for the road.

Whether you arrive for a quick coffee, a leisurely brunch, or a relaxed evening of cocktails and light bites, Pasticceria Morlacchi provides a taste of authentic Italian hospitality.

Guests also enjoy convenient access to a wide range of goods in the shop, from gift baskets to specialty chocolate and artisan bread, making Pasticceria Morlacchi a perfect stop for both casual diners and those in search of a thoughtfully crafted present.
