The Restaurant
The restaurant is on the ground floor of the castle
where there is also a bar and lounge as well as the
offices and reception.
The main dining room is located to the west where there
is a panoramic and extremely fascinating view of the
north-east valley of Friuli, the surrounding hills up
to the peak of the eastern Alps. It has four external
entrances - old entrances to the Jesuit cells - that
connect it to the panoramic terrace where, in good weather,
the catering service is extended to tables outside.
It is characterised by its classical internal brick
decor, a typical Friulan "fogolar" (fireplace)
and its rare "scus" (dried maize leaves) chairs.
It caters for about 60 to 150 places.
A small room furnished in a different style, located
to the east with a view towards the historical centre
of Cividale, is characterised by an ancient marble holy
water stoup and the original sign bearing the old name
of the road that led to the castle.
It is ideal for special occasions with a limited number
of guests; it can cover from 20 to 50 places.
The same room is also appropriate for gatherings and
small meetings. It has two separate entrances. Any equipment
and audiovisual support can be supplied on hire. The
room is also air conditioned.
The cuisine and the wines
The cuisine is typically seasonal. The à la carte
menu is ample and the sea or earth flavours and suggestions
range from the traditional Friulan cuisine to the creativity
of the Chef, who has managed to interpret and review
traditional national and local recipes.
The wine list is mainly based on labels from the most
renowned Friulan wineries. Over one hundred wines from
the Colli Orientali del Friuli and Collio areas are
selected to accompany the succulent culinary offer.
There is also a wide selection of grappa from the best
local distilleries.
Weddings
The typical spirit of wedding banquets during any season
breaks the silence that marks the Locanda al Castello.
The environment is particularly suitable for wedding
receptions and the cuisine and table service stand out
for their quality and care. The limited size of the
dining rooms allows for ceremonies of up to a maximum
of one hundred people with the tables arranged in traditional
layouts.
Our offices are at your complete disposal to prepare
any specific offer and estimate, as well as to organise
a visit to our restaurant. Appointments can also be
made by calling 0432 733242. |
