Drinking & Nightlife
Bolzano after dark will come as a surprise after sophisticated but snoozy Trento. The
pristine city centre may be hushed at 8pm, but it's a different story 'round midnight. Fol-
low the locals heading for Piazza delle Erbe or the beer halls - including local Forst and
the Bavarian Paulaner - along Via Argentieri and Via Goethe.
Enovit
(Via Dott Streiter 30; 10am-1pm & 3.30-8.30pm Mon-Fri, 10am-1pm Sat)
An older, well-dressed
lot frequents this warm, woody corner bar and shop for expertly recommended, gener-
ously poured local wine by the glass. If there's a crowd, and on Fridays there
always
is, it
kicks on past closing.
WINE BAR
Il Baccaro
WINE BAR
(Via Argentieri 17; 9am-8pm Mon-Fri, to 3pm Sat)
Scurry down the cobbled passageway and
poke your nose into this wonderful wine burrow, with a good blackboard selection of re-
gional or Friulian wines and delightful hosts.
Stuzzichini
(snacks) are a euro or two and
are made to order.
Hopfen & Co
( 0471 30 07 88; Piazza delle Erbe 17; 9.30am-1am Mon-Sat)

and sausages cooked in ale (meals €18).
