Il Posto Delle Fragole is a bar-restaurant inside Parco di San Giovanni, run since 1979 by La Collina, a social cooperative that gives people affected by mental illness or other disadvantage a route into paid work.
It holds 4.3 on Google across more than 700 reviews for straightforward food and drink in a genuinely unusual setting, one of the few places in Europe to grow directly out of the closure of a psychiatric hospital.
Local tip: It’s a good, low-key lunch stop if you’re already walking the park; don’t expect fine dining, just an honest plate and a good story behind it.
