Planning FAQ
The budget trick in San Gimignano is to get off the tourist-choked main street.
Le Vecchie Mura serves hearty local fare at long communal tables under brick-vaulted 18th century horse stalls, plus there's a lovely summer terrace outside atop the city walls. Via Piandornella 15, tel. +39-0577-940-270, www.vecchiemura.it. Closed Tuesdays.
Osteria delle Catene sits near the Porta San Matteo end of town, a medieval vault with modern art and lighting fixtures where locals gather to enjoy everything from mixed meat and cheese platters to full Tuscan meals accompanied by excellent Italian wines. Via Mainardi 18, tel. +39-0577-941-966, www.osteriadellecatene.it.
Dorandò offers a refined setting and excellent preparations of historic Tuscan cuisine, including medieval recipes—even some Etruscan dishes. Vicolo dell’Oro 2, tel. +39-0577-941-862, www.ristorantedorando.it. Closed Mondays (open daily Easter to November).
Tips
- Make sure you order the straw-colored Vernaccia di San Gimignano wine with your meal; it was the first white wine in Italy to earn the exalted D.O.C.G. status.
