The story
In the small town of San Germano Monferrato, just outside Casale Monferrato, Osteria Bar Sport is the realisation of a dream for Tommaso and his wife Paola. The couple wanted to create a place where you could start the day with an excellent coffee and a pastry from a proper pastry shop, enjoy a light lunch of high-quality ingredients, and in the evening taste the best of the Monferrato territory — all in close synergy with local producers.
The result is a warm and welcoming environment, a spot to relax with good food and a glass of wine. The kitchen focuses on Piedmontese cuisine, drawing on the rich traditions of the region while working directly with small-scale producers. The atmosphere is casual and genuine, more like a neighbourhood bar than a formal restaurant, which makes the quality of the cooking all the more striking.
The restaurant’s commitment to honest, well-executed food at a fair price earned it a Bib Gourmand from the Michelin guide in 2026, an award that recognises good quality, good value cooking. It’s a fitting nod to a place that puts the pleasure of eating and drinking above all else.
Osteria Bar Sport also offers delivery and takeaway, making it easy to enjoy their cooking at home. Whether you stop in for breakfast, a quick lunch, or a leisurely evening tasting the wines and dishes of the Monferrato hills, this is a restaurant that lives up to its name: a true neighbourhood spot, done right.
