About

Drogheria della Rosa is a culinary gem tucked into Bologna’s historic city centre, just steps from the world‑old University of Bologna. The restaurant sits under medieval arches, inside a restored workshop that exudes a blend of rustic charm and contemporary comfort. Guests are greeted by the unmistakable aroma of fresh pasta and seasonal ingredients, creating an intimate dining experience that feels like a family gathering in the heart of the city.

Vegetarian-friendly options and a thoughtfully curated wine list further elevate the dining experience.
