Trattoria Cacciatori
Trattoria Cacciatori is a restaurant set inside a medieval castle in Peschiera Borromeo near Milan. The building features stone walls, wooden beams, fireplaces in various rooms, and an outdoor courtyard with a pergola where Lombard dishes are served during warmer months.
The castle was owned by medieval figures including Bernabo Visconti and later the Borromeo family, from whom the town took its name. The family operating it since the early 1930s has carefully restored the building while preserving its historical character.
The restaurant occupies a medieval castle that has been home to important historical figures, and this heritage shapes how guests experience dining here today. The family running it has kept alive simple Lombard traditions while making the space welcoming, creating a place where history and everyday hospitality meet.
The restaurant is open Tuesday through Saturday for lunch and dinner, with Sunday lunch only, and reservations are required. Its location near Linate airport makes it convenient for travelers passing through, and the courtyard pergola offers pleasant outdoor dining during summer months.
The restaurant plans to open a bakery within the castle to continue making house-baked breads and focaccia using premium flours. This expansion shows how committed the family is to craftsmanship and ingredient quality.
