Since July

New management.
Same place, different pace.

Since July, Meridiana has been in Mauro's hands. The place is just as you know it: what has changed is the way the bar is run. Fewer things, done better — and drinks only.

The list

Drinks only.
Done properly.

No kitchen, no compromise: the bar deals in cocktails, beer and wine. It's what we do, and it's all you'll find here.

Cocktails and a bottle of sparkling wine on ice

Cocktails

Classics made with precision, plus a few of our own. Good ice, right measures, no shortcuts.

Three freshly poured draught beers

Beer on tap

Three taps always running: a lager, a wheat beer, an abbey ale. Cold, and poured as they should be.

The lit wine wall at Meridiana

Wine and sparkling wine

A wall of labels, by the glass or by the bottle.

A spritz served in a stemmed glass

Aperitivo

From 7pm, when the seafront slows down and the evening begins.

Three mint cocktails being prepared at the bar

Alcohol-free

Looked after as carefully as the cocktails: the driver is never left out.

Evenings

When the lights
come on outside

The terrace under the pines, the lights on, the bar in full swing. This is the hour worth being here for — and the one thing you'll miss if you don't drop in.

The mood

The evening,

Ice, crystal and low light: the mood we like, from 7pm onwards.

What's coming

Come by bike,
leave by bike

From September, Meridiana's bike hire passes to Logonovo e-bike, already established in Comacchio. Take a bike here and you are straight onto the Argine degli Angeli cycle path, a few steps from the bar: the lagoons, the pine forest and the neighbouring resorts all linked up, without ever needing the car.

And next year a pizzeria opens: same address, same spirit. Until then, the bar pours drinks and nothing else.

  • Run by Logonovo e-bike — Comacchio
  • A few steps away Argine degli Angeli cycle path
  • From 2027 The pizzeria opens
