A culinary experience worth trying

Trattoria & Butcher Shop

Our kitchen

authentic, Salento-style, full of character

At Bettola di Pericle, meat takes centre stage. Selected daily at our butcher shop, it is cooked over the grill to bring out its authentic aromas and flavours. From succulent beef steaks and mixed grills to Puglian bombette rolls and traditional roasts, every dish is made with a love of quality ingredients and respect for farming traditions.

The flavors of Salento tradition

Alongside our meat specialties, you’ll find a menu celebrating Salento’s humble yet wonderfully rich cuisine:

  • Homemade orecchiette with rustic sauces
  • Legumes and seasonal vegetables
  • Croquettes and meatballs in tomato sauce




All accompanied by the finest wines from wineries in the Lecce area, for a journey through the flavours and aromas of our land.

The butcher shop

Our in-house butcher shop offers carefully selected cuts of meat, raised to high standards of quality and animal welfare.

You can buy whatever you like directly from the butcher shop, or enjoy it freshly prepared at the adjoining trattoria. A genuine experience where you can choose, watch, take part, and above all, savor.
