Il più classico esempio di un bar di paese, genuino, verace, autentico. Un tuffo nel passato semplicemente delizioso. Prodotti buoni e genuini. Posizione strepitosa, attiguo ad un giardino verdeggiante con una vista impagabile sulle sottovalli del Fitalia fino al mare. Un vero gioiello. Al suo interno un calcetto!

Andare da Santuzzo è come fare un viaggio del passato. Non è un luogo studiatamente retrò. Gli arredi sono quelli di cinquant'anni fa e anche il gestore sembra sbarcato dalla macchina del tempo. I tempi lenti sono quelli di una volta, quindi se vuoi rilassarti e' il posto adatto. Cordialità d'altri tempi e prezzi imbattibili lo rendono un posto assolutamente da visitare

Posto a cui sono molto affezionato, quando posso passo in moto a trovare il grande Santo e le sue ottime granite.

Un posto assolutamente Magico. Dovete andarci, giocare al calcio-balilla e sperare di farci offrire qualcosa dei loro incredibili liquori fatti in casa.
