Caffè di Perugia
The fanciest sit-down cafe in town, its desserts are worth the high prices. It also serves a fine choice of basic pasta and meat dishes and offers outdoor seating in summer.

Ristorante dal Mi’Cocco
Don’t ask for a menu because there isn’t one at this most traditional Perugian restaurant. Diners receive a set menu of a starter, main course, side dish and dessert. You may receive asparagus risotto in May, or tagliatelle (long, ribbon-shaped pasta) with peas and ham in November. Extremely popular with students, it’s best to call ahead.

Ristorante Nanà
It’s a good sign when approximately 47 members of the same family run a 15-table restaurant. Simply furnished with a small menu, the food is ‘ nuovo italiano ’: pâté with Sardinian flatbread (€7) or gnochetti (little gnocchi) in a pepper and radicchio cream sauce (€6.50). The wine list is equally impressive and affordable.

Wine Bartolo Hosteria
Descend a staircase into a hobbit-like burrow that’s surrounded by walls of wine bottles around a handful of cosy tables underneath a low brick ceiling. Staff do beautiful things with Chianina beef – stewed with Sangiovese or as a carpaccio with lemon over radicchio.

Ristorante Sole
Sure, there are better-quality restaurants in Perugia, but you're here for the view. The pasta's not bad, and the duck carpaccio with truffles and grana might just trick you into thinking you came here for the food.
