Locanda Dei Guasconi

Locanda Dei Guasconi is a popular place located close to Piazza Paolo VI. It has a nice glassed-in outside area, a big menu and a cosy interior with exposed brick and lots of wood. Stop by and have a blast.

Dining

Brescian cuisine is well-known for its authenticity and its richness. Thanks to the city's history and the natural diversity of the surrounding area – rivers, lakes, plains, and mountains – the range of different local produce is huge: meat, fish, cheese, olive oil and of course wines from the famous Franciacorta region. Many of the popular dishes on offer have been eaten since the 15th century, such as grilled meats, rich meat stews, risotto, and polenta. The area north of the historic centre has a number of very cheap trattorie, popular with students and workers.
