 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi
We are looking at heading to MdC (been to Selva and Corvara last couple of years and loved them). Après is not a major thing for us but we like a couple just as we come off the slopes...anyone any advice on places? we will be staying at Hotel Dahu - anyone stayed there and have any tips? thanks.

There are some nice bars around the main square. We normally head down there after we've had a quick beer at the hotel we stay in so we can drop off our skis and head there. The one we use is the Suisse and has a very nice atmosphere, sometimes hard to find a seat; quite genteel.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

We are booked for what will be our third season in a row to MdC. We being, my wife, 2 boys (4 & 6) & I.
We may be enjoying a different type of après than what you are after but a couple of bars that we like are:
Bar l'Abruzzo - not in the centre but close to the hotel we stay at. We like it, maybe not everyone's choice but always a good crowd of locals. the staff were good enough to put the 6 nations Italy v Ireland game on the TV for us (and accepted defeat graciously) They serve snacks & as with most places we have been to in Italy, the boys were always welcome!
Caffe Dolomiti - very small but very good. Nice atmosphere & maybe the best burgers in the Dolomites!! It's near the Belvedere, same building I think but upstairs. Really like this place. Did I say it was small!!
Stube de Franz Josef - I think that's the name of it, downstairs beside Hotel Majestic. Cosy & a nice atmosphere. Nice wooden booths which are good if there is a group of you. Good service, although the 3 places I've mentioned all have good service & friendly staff.
As I said, we are a family who pop in with our boys for a couple of beers in the late afternoon or early evening. So maybe looking for something different to yourselves. These 3 bars are favourites with ourselves. There are others at the bottom of Groste & Spinale lifts/runs. At Groste you have Bar Jumper. On bluebird days it gets busy in the afternoons. There is an outdoor bar normally with a dj playing dance music - not my thing but it attracts a big crowd. At the base of Spinale there is a bar, name is escaping me at the minute. Again if it's good weather the terrace can get very busy & it can be a good place for people watching. Although sometimes I have to look away as you just know some people are going to slip & slide on the hill down towards the Audi Ice Drivinf experience!!
Hope you enjoy Madonna Di Campiglio. We love it & can't wait to go back!!!

+1 for the Bar/Caffe Dolomiti -- great Peroni on draught and it's not far from the Dahu, down the hill past hotel Diane, and turn left at the hotel Alpina. The Franz Josef is further down
the hill and in the pedestrianised area next to the Majestic hotel which has a piano bar - not the cheapest place in town, we also a couple of ether bars , the names of which
escape me at the moment. The Dolomiti was my prefered option-- it helped that it was next door to the Alpina, where we stayed and they also showed the rugby.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Go to a bar where you can sit outside. People and dog watching being the major sport in Madonna.
