About

Trattoria Al‑Boia Partanes is a family‑owned osteria nestled in the heart of Merano’s historic old town, opposite the Palais Mamming museum. Its stucco‑lined courtyard and stone‑courtyard rooms echo medieval charm, while the open terrace offers sweeping views of the bustling market square. The menu celebrates Mediterranean flavors, featuring classic Italian staples and regional specialties – from fresh seafood and truffle‑infused tagliatelle to rustic braised meats – all prepared with seasonal herbs, garlic, tomatoes, olives and locally sourced ingredients. Light, airy lunches and decadent dinners run from noon until midnight, with a dedicated kitchen from noon to 2 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. The friendly staff, led by owner Marco, are known for their warm hospitality and prompt service, ensuring each guest feels at home. Their wine list showcases fine regional wines – from sparkling Brut Meran to crisp Pinot Grigio – pairing beautifully with the dishes. A well‑designed menu adapts weekly, making each visit a fresh discovery. Best to visit in late spring or early autumn when the weather is mild and the crowds thin, but the terrace remains lively into summer.
