The Quadrilatero osteria documented since 1465: only wine and beer, long wooden tables and you bring your own food from the market. Monday to Saturday until 21:30.

Six centuries serving wine
The Osteria del Sole is on Vicolo dei Ranocchi, an alley in the Quadrilatero, the market district behind Piazza Maggiore. The first documents that mention it date from 1465, and the house still follows the same rule as then: here they serve drinks only. Wine and beer; no soft drinks or food. What there is are long, shared wooden tables, and the freedom to bring whatever you want to eat.
How it works
Before going in, stop by the shops around, on Via Pescherie Vecchie or Via Drapperie: mortadella, a piece of parmigiano, bread. You go in with your package, order the wine at the bar and sit wherever there is room. It is the most Bolognese aperitivo there is and the cheapest, because you only pay for what you drink. The website does not publish prices.
Opening hours
Monday to Saturday, from 11:00 to 21:30; Sunday, from 12:00 to 16:00. For information and group bookings, call 051 0033127.
On a wine night
It opens in the afternoon before you go to the Enoteca Italiana, about ten minutes on foot away, crossing Via Indipendenza, and is two minutes from the Albergo delle Drapperie, for those sleeping in the Quadrilatero.

Qué pedir: a glass of the house wine and whatever you have bought in the shops on Via Pescherie Vecchie or Via Drapperie
