Biella Piazzo · Piedmont
Lunch on the square.
Home cooking and fair prices in the historic upper town of Biella.
A trattoria in the old town
The Piazzo is Biella's medieval upper town, reachable by funicular from the lower city. Alla Cisterna sits on its arcaded square, with outdoor tables on fine days.
Expect risotto with local toma cheese and red wine, ravioli with fondue and black truffle, vitello tonnato, roasts with polenta and simple desserts, plus a good-value fixed-price lunch menu on weekdays.
Plates and the square
“Imbattibile rapporto qualità/prezzo. Abbiamo mangiato fuori sotto il portico in un ambiente caratteristico.”

“Trattoria carina affacciata sulla piazza al centro del borgo.”
