Bar Vitelli

I had an unforgettable experience at Bar Vitelli in Sicily, the iconic location from The Godfather movie. The service was amazing, with attentive and friendly staff making sure every need was met. The food was absolutely delicious, perfectly capturing the authentic flavors of Sicily. The beer was refreshing, providing the perfect complement to the meal. Adding to the charm of this historic spot were the adorable stray cats that roamed around, giving the place a unique and delightful atmosphere. Bar Vitelli is a must-visit for any fan of The Godfather or anyone seeking a memorable dining experience in Sicily!

It's a must-see for Godfather fans. But it's also a tourist trap. Expensive food and drinks and the owner is a bit gruff. He smiles after a while. I can imagine his rent is high and tables have to move. I had a nice time with a glass of wine, the "toast" and obligatory photo under the arch. You can spend much more. Come and sit where Michael Corleone did. Everyone who enjoyed the Godfather should.

It's the bar in the Godfather movie. Nice spot for a drink and wander around savoca. Beautiful little town

Definitely plan on going to Bar Vitelli and Savoca if you're going to Sicily. Bar Vitelli is charming, and Savoca itself is equally as charming. I thought I'd go take a picture and leave, but I ended up spending a couple of hours walking around the town and hanging out in the garden in front of Bar Vitelli. It's a charming old Norman town. The drive up is a circuitous, narrow road up a mountain. Gorgeous views. I accidentally drove down the back of the mountain and was afraid I was going to end up in a ditch or get caught facing a car coming in the opposite direction (there's only room for one car, and it's steep), but I was fine and had no trouble getting to Catania.

Authentic charm. Historic place with a lot of memories of "The Godfather" . Precious item the chair of Al Pacino. Village full of charm

Great little place, that doesn't charge the earth just because of its significance. Has plenty of memorabilia from the filming, but also good service and drinks.

Highly recommended this charming place. Food , atmosphere, service is absolutely amazing.

Bar Vitelli in Sicily is a captivating slice of cinematic history from "The Godfather" era. Stepping into this charming establishment feels like entering a time capsule. The rustic, sun-kissed façade and classic interiors evoke a sense of nostalgia. The welcoming ambiance, coupled with authentic Italian hospitality, creates an unforgettable experience. Sipping espresso at the same bar featured in the iconic film is a delightful journey for any enthusiast. Whether you're a cinephile or seeking a taste of traditional Sicilian charm, Bar Vitelli delivers a unique and memorable visit, leaving patrons with a sense of connection to the past.

The famous bar where scenes from the movie "The Godfather" were filmed. Inside the bar you can see pictures from the shoot and some interesting details.
Definitely the best sorbello I've tried

More than just a scene from The Godfather movie. A family owned bar and cafe on the hilltop in beautiful Savocs, Sicilia.🇮🇹. The car ride up was amazing. We love Sicilia💋

The godfather bar. All Pacino hiding in Sicily and goes to asked about Apollonia. Nice little town

We stop for some beverages and drink in this historical place. Many historical goods from Godfather film.

Loved this place, surprised to get a table right outside the famous doorway. Memorabilia inside was cool as well. Lemon Granita and a cannoli on a blisteringly hot day was really nice. Service was excellent even though it was chaos at times due to tourist buses arriving.

Godfather fans must visit where the ask of daughter hand by Michael to his first wife father happened inside this bar. The church is nearby as well. Super cool memorabilia

It was fascinating to sit and drink something in the same cafe where the Godfather crew once had been. The owner of the cafe was friendly and polite. The staff is friendly. I had godfather kokteyl and it was super. Everything was amazing.

Those who liked the movie definitely will should be go here. Atmosphere,village and bar are wonderful, Myself felt like in the movie and The Godfather.

Even without the Godfather connection, this would be a great café bar to visit. The views are amazing and the period decorations are perfectly preserved. With appearances in The Godfather movies, though, the number of tourists make the whole town of Savoca a very busy location, with busloads of tourists and many languages spoken inside and outside. Luckily the food and drink are good, with Sicilian favourites like granite (frozen lemon sorbet drink) and prosciutto sandwiches on offer. The prices for the sandwichea are 20 euro with the tourist supplement added, so rest assured the owner of Bar Vitelli knows what they've got here! Standard granite limone is 4.50 and very nice on a warm day. There's not a huge selection of competing cafés in Savoca, but there is one across the town square and a baker around the corner, so one could have a drink at Vitelli and search out food elsewhere, which is what we did.

An amazing experience! We felt we travelled back in time, and that at any moment, Michael and Apollonia would enter the bar too. The bar is wonderfully preserved and cared for by the family of the original owner, Maria D'Arrigo, the lovely Sicilian woman who charmed Al Pacino with her granite, and who passed away in 2009. We felt honored to meet her nephew who is currently taking care of the wonderful bar. You can see lots of photos from the famous Godfather movie that was filmed in Savoca, or even the original chair that Al Pacino was sitting on while proposing Apollonia's hand in marriage to her father in Bar Vitelli.
Wonderful Sicilian experience, and all the best to the family that put Savova on the world map.

Its a must for godfather movie fans ❤
