Osteria Senz'Oste — Restaurant in Valdobbiadene

We arrived before noon in early March on a nice day. There are very little signs that point in the right direction so you must rely on the location seen on Google maps. If you’re driving, leave your car in the few spots among the vineyards before you reach the gated parking lot. From there, you can walk 1 minute to the destination.

We did not purchase any wine but did grab a piece of cheese and cured meat from The self service fridge inside the stone house. Both were delicious and it was nice that cutting boards and knives are provided.

The view and atmosphere is spectacular and like the name implies, there was zero staff on site. Unfortunately the self payment cash machine didn’t work so we had to shove as much cash as we had on us inside the cash box.

One of a kind experience, highly recommend if you’re...

Pretty much every article you read about the Prosecco region of Italy is going to have some mention of Osteria Senz’Oste and quite rightly so. Why? This is one unique ‘dining establishment’. Firstly, there are only patrons, no staff. Osteria Senz’Oste is a self-service tavern that operates on an honesty policy basis.

Bonus: You’re just over the road from the popular Col Vetoraz Vineyard and just down the hill from the Prosecco vending machine (yes,...

We loved our visit here, something different in a beautiful setting. The views are great and even with other people around you can still find a little place to yourself. I read some negative reviews so I was hesitant but all I can say is embrace it for what it is… You can buy a half bottle for 9 euros, there are plastic cups for free and you don’t have to buy food if you don’t want to. A full bottle ranges from 15-20 euros, it is a business after all! And other drink options are available. You can use a card for payment, the machine had a glitch and the guy came and fixed it within 2 minutes. There were not only tourists visiting but Italians too. It’s also on a bus route up until around 6pm I think. It was very chilled and we were really pleased...
