Bastione

We had lunch here and it was pretty packed with people, but luckily we got the seat with nice view. Lasagna was great, and we ordered aperol spritz, latte macchiato, and apple strudel to complete our meal

We Had some refreshing Drinks after taking the lift. The View is amazing. The Personal was Not the friendliest but quick. Prices were good.

Amazing views as definitely best views of the lake...l recommend walking back down as its not as bad with paved walkways. The cafe makes a good stop over if thinking of trekking up towards the chapel. Views are very panoramic offering a birds eye view of Riva

The kitchen is closed for the season but they serve sandwiches. Do NOT order a sandwich. It was wilted old lettuce, 2 thin slices of no flavor tomato and a thin slice of cheese on plain white bread. The tiramisu was good and fresh squeezed lemonade was good. Service was really bad. We had to wave someone down and they just put our food on the table and quickly walked away. Of course the view is amazing and the lemonade and tiramisu were great.

Beautiful spot with stunning views — worth the €9 entry per person. Great place to enjoy the scenery, though the drinks were just okay and the snacks (chips and basic olives) could be improved. Still, a lovely experience overall!

Well worth a visit, OAP's go free too!. Great views of Riva and surrounding area. The castle ( Bastione) is small but historical. The food at the eatery looked very nice though I never tried.

Bastione Lounge and Restaurant is the perfect spot to enjoy an afternoon coffee with an unforgettable view of Lake Garda. Perched on a hill overlooking the lake, it offers panoramic views that are stunningly beautiful. Adding to the charm, the restaurant is located right next to the historic Bastione castle, making it a unique place to relax and take in the area’s history. To reach the restaurant, there’s a convenient funicular that takes you up the hill. It’s a short, scenic ride that makes the experience even more enjoyable. Tickets for the funicular are around 5 euros for a round trip, and it’s well worth it for the ease and the views along the way. Once at the top, you’ll find the outdoor seating area provides an unobstructed view of Lake Garda, creating a serene atmosphere that’s perfect for unwinding. Whether you’re here for the views, the coffee, or the historic charm, Bastione Lounge and Restaurant is a must-visit when in Riva del Garda. The combination of nature, history, and relaxation makes it an unforgettable experience.

A little touristy spot to enjoy the views, drink a capuccino or beer. Prices reasonable for this kind of place. Can be reached either by cable car of on foot (entry about 100 meter up the road). Access to the little castle is free. There is a trail up to the chapel, but it seem to be a bit on the harder side.

Great food with an incredible view! Not overpriced, as I had worried of a place in its location. We stopped by for lunch after hiking up to the Santa Barbara church, the food was a welcome reprieve. The carpaccio di carne salada was very good, as was the octopus. Cover charge was 5€, but other than that, prices were reasonable.
