Tradition by day. Aperitivo by night.
Pastry & Aperitivo Bar
Located at the entrance to Bale’s old town, San Rocco Sweet & Sour blends traditional pastries and gelato with aperitivo culture. A place for sweet mornings, slow afternoons, and relaxed Mediterranean evenings with local flavors, wine, and cocktails.
Two Decades of Sweet Tradition
For nearly 20 years, San Rocco has been a family pastry shop shaped by recipes, techniques, and love passed down through generations. From classic cakes to artisanal gelato, every sweet carries the memory of tradition, refined with a modern touch.
From Sweet to Aperitivo
As the day unfolds, San Rocco transforms into a relaxed aperitivo bar. Enjoy local wines, cocktails, and small plates in a warm Mediterranean setting — a place to slow down, meet friends, and experience Bale from morning sweetness to evening charm.

A really nice little place in Bale. We had focaccia, waffles, and an ice cream sundae. Everything was fresh, and the service was friendly and helpful. The cappuccino was also great. The ice cream is homemade and absolutely delicious.
