Ever thought that a cafe and a bar would win international accolade and fame in a small town of 15,000 people in Italy. That is exactly what Barcentoundici has done in a town called Castellaneta, most famous for being the birth place of one of the first superstars in the world from Hollywood, Rodolfo Valentino.

The cafe is drawing attention not just for its food, but for the way it makes every guest feel welcome. Regulars and first-time visitors alike have been sharing stories of staff remembering their names, accommodating last-minute requests, and going out of their way to make the experience feel personal.
"It's not just about the food — it's about how you're treated the moment you walk through the door," said one longtime customer. Staff members are known for greeting guests warmly.
Owners, Isa & Claudia, credits the restaurant's culture to a simple philosophy: treat every guest like they're a guest in your own home. Staff training reportedly emphasizes empathy and attentiveness over rigid scripts, allowing servers to respond naturally to each table's needs.
The restaurant has also been recognized for its inclusivity, offering thoughtful accommodations for dietary restrictions and creating a welcoming atmosphere for families, solo diners, and large groups alike.
