Theater cafè

On the northern side of the Ridotto, after passing through an open transverse corridor frescoed in 1765, there ischarming little room in which one can observe the ornamental paintings made by master Francesco Tellaroli, in 1787. Said small room housed the Cafeteria, otherwise known as the Buvette (Buffè) of the theater.
Originally, this room was the executive headquarters of the Academic Regency. A little later, mainly due to supervening, pressing needs of a military nature, the necessary conversion of use into a fencing school took place, the conduct of which was entrusted to the same valiant academicians.

Today, the Caffè del Teatro Grande – Berlucchi is a historical café located in the heart of the city, where to indulge for breakfast, a snack or an “aperitivo” surrounded by a unique environment.
