La Locanda

Cosenza


Just off Cosenza's pedestrian-friendly shopping street La Locanda is a centrally-located and versatile spot that's a favourite with local families. Pasta, steaks and salads are all good value, but La Locanda's point of difference are their pinses, a cross between a flaky flatbread and a pizza. Try the Vescovo with spicy sausage, crispy potato and basil.
