Trattoria-pizzeria-bar-alimentari. C'è tutto in questo non-locale in cui fermarsi per ogni occasione. Molto frequentato da lavoratori per colazione e pausa pranzo. Il cibo proposto è casalingo, con buone porzioni, buona qualità e prezzi onesti.

May be hard to find at first. We were given the reccommendation by the farm we were staying at, La Selva, which is on the same road. Also nearby is a pony club/ riding school. It is a few kms outside Siena center.
We were tired after taking numerous wrong turns on our drive from Pisa to Siena and instead of our estimated 5:30 arrival at Agroturismo La Selva, got there instead at 7:45. The adults were at wit's end and did not want dinner, but just to go to sleep! However, our group of 7 ranged from 8 to 72 years of age so that was not a good idea. Marco, the son of the owner of La Selva , recommended La Vecchia Miniera. We went there reluctantly, with much doubt and not much goodwill left after the long drive.What we found was a packed restaurant where although we showed up with no reservation, did not bat an eyelid or try to embarass us in any way, but got us a nice table in corner inside ( I am not European and hate sitting outside in any case), with a menu in English as well as a menu in Italian. Most of the other customers seemed to be Italian. The food was traditional with an unusual but very pleasant twist and the list of local wines were ssssssssoooooooooooooooo reasonably priced and extremely drinkable that both nights became 2 bottle nights! The bread was out of this world and even those of us (me being one) who were there for a drink and to make sure no one got lost, all ended up having three courses!On the second night, in better frame of mind, we realised that above the great food, (calzone, mussels which normally only I like but which the kids asked for the next night, pasta in wild boar sauce, best pizzas in the world!) what brought us back was also the fantastic service staff! Red (hope I got the name right) was fantastic and explained all sorts of things to us (even probably really stupid things). All the staff were great, only calling on the chap with long hair (Red) when questions got too scary. We even learned why grappa comes in two colors! And my husband, trouble maker that he is, sent my daughter to pay the bill with our English debit card, thank God, not the Singapore credit card) even though I told him a small place like this would probably only deal in cash. Again, no problem, Red sorted it out, without any fuss or embarassment to our very sensitive teenager.So, to sum up, I am sharing this because when we got back to our last stop, my mother in law's in UK, this is the place everyone remembered of our Italy trip (Rome, Florence, Siena, Venice) most. They certainly don't need the good review as they were packed the two nights we visited anyway. In fact, I would say if you you are not staying at La Selva or somewhere equally close, then please make a reservation in case you are not able to get there early enough. But this is one of the genuinely good places in life, where you don't have to pay the earth for a great experience. I have heard the diving in Sardinia is good, so I am sure I will be able to make an excuse to come back to Italy and Tuscany , in a couple of years. And I will definitely come back to this place then. Thanks for all the great memories!

Il locale è carino ed offre molte possibilità , il personale è gentile, ma forse causa troppe prenotazioni e troppo afflusso c'è una gran confusione. Capitate per caso di sabato sera siamo state accolte con gentilezza e simpatia, poi abbiamo dovuto aspettare parecchio per mangiare. Sicuramente causa troppa gente, ma anche per disorganizzazione interna. Mangiati crostini e pizza, non cattiva e non superlativa, nella norma. Speso poco.

Just finished an amazing pizza. We were in town on the 1st of May and there was a limited amount of places open, so went for Chiccoâs for pizza and so glad it is was open. Absolutely fantastic. The best pizza I have ever ate! Loved it.

Lovely place! The staff are really friendly and the food is superb. They offer gluten free pizzas and these also seem to be hand made. The ambience is really nice and there is parking nearby. Excellent all round.Thanks for the positive review, I hope to see you soon

Ambiente informale dove si trovano buonissimi dolci, ottima pizza e altrettanto gustose proposte per il pranzo. Personale gentile e velocissimo e prezzi modesti per un pranzo più che soddisfacente con porzioni abbondanti. Sicuramente da tornarci!

amazing restaurant in top of a private lake Surrounded from some of the best vineyards of chianti classico. Fonterutoli mazzei e rocca delle macie. you can book a table in a fantastic Floating platform on the lake, or in the table all around the lake. kid
We were fortunate to be guests on wedding which took place in ValleChiara. This is absolutely gorgeous place with original Toscan view, but what makes it truly special is the lake. Restaurant is just in front of the water. We have enjoyed this gorgeous night with beautiful sets and stunning food: we have tried so many dishes which are piculiar for Toscany. And great wine of course!

We ate twice here while staying in the hotel, once inside and once out by the pool. Meals were very good. The head waiter or maître d' was great, couldn't do enough for us. Pleasant ambiance.

Small local pizerria which serves take away and in house. This is no turist trap. Mainly locals eat here. Very quick service, you can see how your order is being prepared just 2 meters from your table. Very reasonable prices. 1 pizza costs 7 eur. Bottle of chianti wine 8 eur. Espresso 1 eur. They serve on disposable dishes. Pizzas were very tasty. Good value for money. Would recommend if you prefer to eat like locals.

The pizzas are really nice and tasty. Excellent value for money. Staff is friendly but maybe a bit slow with the service. If you are in the Siena area with car and don't want to drive in to the center of Siena, this is a good choice.
