Eating in Bari Vecchia, an experience that goes beyond the table

It is in this context that Restaurant and Events R45 Bari has chosen to be born and grow, transforming one of the most characteristic streets of the historic center of Bari into a reference point for quality Apulian cuisine.
Choosing Restaurant and Events R45 Bari means experiencing the village not only as a background, but as an integral part of the experience.
R45 in the heart of the historic center of Bari
Restaurant and Events R45 Bari is located in Strada Palazzo di Città 46, a few steps from the most significant places in the city. The Basilica of San Nicola, a symbol of Bari recognized throughout Europe, can be reached on foot in a few minutes. Equally close is the Cathedral of San Sabino, with its Romanesque architecture that dominates the square of the same name. For those who want to complete their visit with a walk along the sea, the Imperatore Augusto waterfront offers a view of the Adriatic that needs no introduction.
A short distance from the restaurant is also the Norman-Swabian Castle, one of the best-preserved medieval fortresses in Southern Italy, now home to exhibitions and cultural events. Bari Vecchia is a neighborhood that you explore slowly, discovering every corner with surprise: the women who prepare the recchiette on the steps of houses, the churches carved into the rock, the scents of traditional Bari cuisine that filter through open doors. Restaurant and Events R45 Bari is the natural destination at the end of this exploration.
The Apulian cuisine that Restaurant and Events R45 Bari brings to the table is not separated from the territory in which it is located: it is a direct expression of it.

Eating in the historic center of Bari is not a logistical choice: it is a meaningful choice.
