A significant contribution to the growing quality of offerings along Bologna’s bustling Via del Pratello is owed to the vision of Fabio Tiberio, Giuseppe Montanaro, and Giuseppe Doria. Their venue, Macondo, has struck a perfect balance with the city’s youthful nightlife scene, enhancing product quality while embracing the area’s dense student life and social rhythm.

Macondo’s charm lies in an intangible recipe: genuine empathy and meaningful interaction with guests, a hallmark of this London-inspired cocktail bar with kitchen. Guests often find themselves spending hours at the bar, chatting with a passionate team eager to share new labels and creative suggestions—all with warmth, enthusiasm, and a human touch.

The bar boasts one of Bologna’s most impressive spirits collections, with a curated selection of rum, whiskey, tequila, and mezcal, including rare bottles featured in tastings. Live music and a constantly dynamic atmosphere foster a truly convivial, socially integrated environment, uniting patrons across all backgrounds.

With the arrival of Christian Torcasio, one of the city’s most talented bartenders, the cocktail list has become even more refined—technical yet approachable, with a focus on botanicals, cordials, seasonal fruits, and homemade liqueurs, moving away from sugary excesses in favor of layered, elegant flavors.
