Ai Troeggi

After the refurbishment ( August 2017 ) I Troeggi looks nicer than before and now they have 6 taps plus an handpump with a selection more than good .. The place look nice in the typical way for the Genova " vicoli " .. Maybe is missing a good bar area where to stand and talk with the bartenders but maybe they prefer the service to the tables instead .. The selection on tap was Italian micros focused .. in the fridge some little gem for genova’s selection which is very basic .. Food Is bruschetta prepared in many ways with top quality ingredients .. Don’t think we can call this place a beer bar only ,cause they have a very good choice of wine too but is still one of the best place in town !!

Posto carino diviso su 2 livelli , selezione di birrifici locali e del nord Italia piuttosto ben fatta , mangiato la bruschetta che era buona , servizio forse un po' frettoloso

We visited here Friday 10th February 2017, however it wasn’t altogether obvious to us where this place was located as they appear to have a wine shop of the same name about 50metres or so away, which we kept trying to go into their before realising our error. It’s located close to the Piazza San Lorenzo down an alleyway called via Chiabrera, just make sure that you walk on past their wine shop and following this it’s just a short walk past here once you have crossed over the next alleyway

It was really, really busy in here, standing room only for us at the bar, so I never really got to grips with the layout, however the entrance is quite narrow with some seating on the left hand side this then opens up and the bar and a food preparation area is off to the RH side. There appeared to be another room off to the left and a further room beyond the bar which had a big screen and was showing an Italian football match. We stood here having selected from the 4-5 keg choices all Italian micros I believe. It was fascinating watching just how hard the staff worked, particularly those who were preparing food, it was like a conveyor belt of stuff heading away from here to customers with lots of breads being toasted and then thickly spread with pesto, tapenade, gorgonzola and cured meats etc, you could not believe how much stuff they were churning out, we watched both them and the bartenders work really hard with the constant orders. It was one of those places that had a very busy, dare I say cluttered feel with the decor as well, a picnic blanket was laid out above your head stuck to the ceilings and then there were lots of photos from around the work with people displaying where they are with the Ai Troeggi logo etc.

Beer choice as already mentioned was all Italian, Loz had one of her new favourites this holiday Crak Guerrila, I had a Helles called SS46, both were in great nick. We liked it here, we liked the hustle and bustle and just people watching, it would be interesting coming back here at a quieter time, if indeed there is such a thing with this popular place.

Bel locale. 5 vie sempre di buon livello. Si mangia bene, ottimi prodotti a prezz i giusti tutto sommato. Frigo fornito

Venuti qui diverse volte ormai .. Posto bellino forse un po’ piccolo ma ben curato .. Poca roba alla spina ma nel frigo c’è bella roba .. Meglio di niente ..

Beautiful and atmospheric place: vaulted rooms and old cellars, in a medieval alley of the old town near the cathedral. They offer 5 italian craft beers on tap (changing periodically), plus a choice of bottles. Good food (bruschette, meat, cheeses) and good wines.

Pub con una buona personalità, lo staff e disponibilissimo e molto amichevole.molto buona la cucina (ricordo ancora con piacere l’ottima bruschetta con pesto e formaggio). Selezione piuttosto ristretta alla spina, discreta per le bottiglie.

They have 4 craft beers on draught from italian breweries and they have a very good selection of beers in bottle from italy and abroad. A very good place for drinking some beers in tipical "sampdoria vicoli".
