Bari, Italy - Scottish Football Association

There is also a good selection of eateries
specialising in food from around the
world and the usual suspects in fast
food will be on hand to fill you up for a
couple of hours.
The Baresi folk pride themselves on
their focac’cia (type of bread bun) which
they assure you is the best in the entire
country. Try it with tomatoes and the
locally produced olive oil. Another local
speciality is orechiette pasta (‘little
ears’ in English). It may cost three or
four times more but you will taste the
difference. Local wine will be cheap and
pretty decent as one tenth of the wine
drunk in Europe comes from Puglia.
bars
The nightlife in Bari centres around
Bari Vecchia, especially in the Piazza
Mercantile and Piazza Del Ferrarese
where there are dozens of bars, pubs,
cafes and restaurants. Below are a few
places which might suit your style.
There are few nightclubs to be found
in Bari Vecchia and to find one you will
have to venture further afield from the
scope of the map via taxi. Expect to pay
an entrance fee and remember bouncers
have the right to refuse entry.
Arca Di Noe
(Via Putignani 187)
Translated as Noah’s Ark, this live music
venue hosts just about every species
of music lover every week and will no
doubt bounce even more due to the
arrival of the ‘Tartanus Armius’.
restaurants
Hostaria Gambero
(Corso Antonio de Tullio 8)
Facing the Porto Grande, this eatery
offers fresh seafood served simply and
prepared by good honest chefs making it
one of the best restaurants in town.
www.hostaria-gambero.com
tel (0039) 085216018
Al Pescatore
(Piazza Frederico di Svevia 6-8)
This place in the Old Town vies with the
one above for the honour of being Bari’s
top seafood restaurant. Apparently the
fish on your plate will be so fresh that
you’ll notice the old sea dog who caught
it and sold it to the head chef nipping
out the door as you take your first bite.
Well worth seeking out.
Gusto
(Piazza Giuseppe Massari)
A busy pizzeria which also doubles up
as a classy restaurant and offers as wide
a selection of drinks as it does dishes
– including Whyte and Mackay whisky.
Open 11am-3pm and 7.30pm-1pm.
tel (0039) 0805227098.
Arena
(Via Tridente 15-21)
Bari has embraced the ‘Caraibico
Divertimento’ (pubs with entertainment,
drinks and food from the Caribbean) and
this place was one of the first to open in
the early 90’s.
Cantinero De Cuba
(Via Lattanzio 14/A)
Cuban heels in the heel of Italy! Sample
the flavour of Havana and plenty of salsa
dancing to inflame the passions.
La Habana - Bodeguita Particular
(Via San Francesco d’Assisi 45)
This small pub brings Cuba to Bari and
that includes nearly 500 different types
of rum to sample as well as exotic
regional delicacies and cocktails. Open
til late.
The Stuart
(Via Dalmazia 173)
A wee taste of home situated in Bari,
this place should be pretty busy, with
up to 10,000 Scots expected to pay a
visit to the city. Tennent’s Lager on tap,
a good whisky selection and they claim
they only shut when the last customer
goes home – what’s not to like? The only
problem is that it’s about 1km from the
Old Town and might only have room for
around 60 people.
Whisky Jazz
(Via Lucarelli, Poggiofranco
neighbourhood)
Slowing the pace down a little for more
discerning Scotland fans this little jazz
bar might be a good way to relax and
sup a wee dram of Whyte and Mackay.
(LOCAL TIME)
KICK-OFF 20.50
Wabi Sabi
(Via Cifarelli 22)
This boozer is home to live music
concerts, dancing, a wide selection of
beer and food – especially sandwiches
– and also Sky TV for the viewing of
Italian and European football. Sounds
OK to us.

Other restaurants which may delight
your taste buds include: La locande
de Pescatore (Viale Matarrese,
Poggiofranco neighbourhood) and
Nuviani Antipasteria (Via Tridente).
Younger
(Corso Benedetto Croce 80)
Apparently this is a popular bar in the
Scottish style which offers customers a
great line in entertainment from Karaoke
and DJs to Shiatsu massages.
Cristall
(Piazza Mercantile 51/52)
Take it easy in this bar which has a laid
back atmosphere to complement the
fact that it is a typical local Bari bar. Has
several specialities on the menu including
‘Arabic Sandwiches’ whatever they are,
and if the weather’s nice it has room to
seat about 100 people outside.
Ethnos
(Via Duca degli Abruzzi 1)
Outwith the historical centre of town,
this upmarket joint offers the discerning
Tartan Army follower the chance to
revel in exotic surroundings in what can
only be described as a true cocktail bar
and restaurant.
Voglia Discobar
Situated in the busy Piazza Del Ferrarese
area, the Discobar will play host to the
Fans Embassy and the Whyte & Mackay
pre-match party. Expect fun, advice,
music and to sample a dram (or two) in
this lively bar setting! Tartan Army Fans
Embassy is an information exchange and
meeting point run by the TA for the TA.
Open Tuesday 27th March 7-8pm and
Wednesday 28th March 12-2pm.
Fab
(Piazza Marina 7)
A pub, disco and restaurant thrown into
one on two levels. A one-stop-shop and
will no doubt be a cool place to visit as it
is named after an ice lolly.
Finnegans Wake
(Via de Tullio 36)
To be sure, to be sure, there had to be
at least one Irish bar in Bari and low
and behold here it is. Good craic, loads
of draught beer including the black stuff
and food that’s filling - what else would
you expect?
Other bars where you can sample a
Whyte & Mackay or two are:
Caffe’Italiano (Viale Matarrese
in front of the Sheraton Hotel),
Caffe’Lucarelli (Viale Lucarelli
- Poggiofranco neighbourhood),
Caffe’Nuviani (Via Tridente),
Birreria Demetra (Via Giovene/
Corsa Timavo).
clubs
Nord Wind
(Via Giannone 18)
Known for its hard rock influence, but
every taste is accommodated here at
this busy disco pub. Each night of the
week it seems has a dedicated theme
night eg: Tuesday nights might be quite
camp and a Thursday might be for local
bands. Has maxi screens showing football
on a Sunday and it also serves food.
www.nordwinddiscopub.eu.com
Target
(Via Fanelli 234)
Loads of cocktails and beers to choose
from and the same goes for the different
styles of music on offer. Apparently there
is an open air dance floor so let’s hope
the weather is nice.
Parana
(Via Abate Gimma 194)
Popular with students, this disco
pub always tries to create the right
atmosphere for a party. Describes itself
as for people who like to dance, but
don’t like discos.
BARI
STADIUM GUIDE
The San Nicola stadium is situated approximately 5km
to the south of the city centre. The space ship-shaped
ground takes approximately 20 minutes to drive to and
is situated beyond the city’s ring road. On match days
special buses (line 20) run from the city centre from
Piazza Aldo Moro to the terminus at the San Nicola.
A taxi from the train station would cost around €20.
We are reliably informed that walking to the San Nicola
would take you the best part of an hour from the city
centre. The 8.50pm KO will also cause its own problems
so make sure you are aware of late night and early
morning trains for destinations outside Bari. Hopefully
the train and bus timetables on the websites detailed in
this guide will help.
for ongoing supporter information
www.scottishfa.co.uk
Let’s be honest, if you ever find yourself
having a bad meal in a restaurant in Italy
you are really unlucky. So it’s a fair bet
that wherever you visit for pizza or pasta
in Bari or the Puglia region, you won’t
be disappointed. Bari itself is packed full
of traditional ristorantes and trattorias
serving locally-produced specialities,
including fabulous seafood.
Scotland fans will be located in the upper section of the
South Stand (Tribune). The gates will open 3 hours before
kick-off and fans are encouraged to arrive early due to
the distance from the city centre to the stadium.
FANS SHOULD ALSO NOTE THAT ANYONE
CLEARLY UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF
ALCOHOL WILL NOT BE ALLOWED ACCESS
TO THE STADIUM.
Anything which can be described as a weapon or any
object capable of being thrown will not be permitted
in the stadium. However the authorities will permit
supporters’ flags to be displayed in the stadium.
Both police and ticket cordons will be in operation.
The police cordon will be situated 50-100 yards before
the turnstiles where fans will be searched for any illegal
objects and alcohol. Thereafter fans will pass through
a further cordon where their match tickets will be
electronically scanned.
At the end of the match there is the possibility that
Scotland fans will be held back for a period of time.
However this will be communicated to the fans via
loudspeaker during the match if this is to take place.
Arrangements are being made to have a help desk
positioned in the South Tribune car park at the stadium.

THINGS TO SEE AND DO
Bari is in the area known as Puglia, or ‘Apulia’ as the locals like to call it, which is basically the
heel part of Italy along the Adriatic sea coast. Apparently the medieval Old Town is famous for
being one of the easiest cities in Italy to get lost in. Although the town has developed its own
modern, bustling new town laid out in a grid system, it’s said to lack the romantic Italian charm.
Despite this, it still has its good points. The Piazza Mercantile is where you’ll find the old HQ
of Bari’s Council of Nobles and the ‘Column of Justice’ where debtors were tied in days gone
by. This is a convenient place to meet as are Piazza del Ferrarese in the Bari Vecchia area and
Piazza Aldo Morro, near the train station. Be aware that most attractions tend to indulge in
the Mediterranean siesta but things to see and do include...
Main Streets and Shopping
The main drag in Bari is undoubtedly Corso Cavour which has a multitude of shops and bars
to satisfy everybody’s tastes. The market at Piazza del Ferrarese will also keep the imagination
occupied for a while and might be a good regrouping point after venturing into the labyrinth
of the Old Town. Bari Vecchia or Old Town, is a sight to behold itself with at least 40 churches
and three times as many shrines dotted about its intricate lanes and alleys. The plan of the
Bari Vecchia was designed to confuse pirates and Vikings, so have a compass or two handy.
Basilica di San Nicola (Piazza San Nicola)
This impressive Romanesque-style church was built specifically to house the remains of the
relics of St Nicholas or Santa Claus. The bones, stolen from Turkey by local fishermen in the
11th Century, are said to have powers to induce miracles. Let’s hope our Christmases come
early with a great result against the Italians. A quick wish for a Kenny Miller hat-trick might be
worthwhile! The splendid tabernacle dating from 1150, and the bishop’s throne known as the
Cattedra di Elia are worth seeing. Free, and open daily between 7am-1pm and 4pm-8pm.
Cathedral of San Sabino (Piazza Odegitria)
The Cathedral of Bari dates from the 11th century and was rebuilt in the 12th century after
its destruction by the Norman Guglielmo II il Malo. Situated close to the Normanno Svevo
Castle in the Old Town, the cathedral is dedicated to San Sabino, the mortal remains of whom
are preserved here. The large rose window and the Baroque portals are impressive. Open
daily between 8.30am-12noon and 4pm-8pm. Entry free.
Bari Castle (Piazza Fredrico II di Svevia)
The words ‘imposing’ and ‘castle’ are often used in the same sentence and as such are a bit
of a cliche, but the Normanno Svevo Castle in Bari is definitely imposing with its situation
just outside the old city, overlooking the harbour. Originally a Norman stronghold, the local
citizens reportedly destroyed it twice before it was rebuilt by Frederick II in the first half of
the 13th century and it has seen several changes of use since. The views from the ramparts
should be worthwhile and you can relax with a walk around the castle savouring its pleasant
gardens and palm trees. Open Tuesday to Saturday from 9am-1pm and from 3.30pm-7pm,
Sunday from 9am-1pm.
TOP TIPS
transport
The new Bari-Palese or the Karol Wojtyla International Airport (named after Pope John Paul
II) opened in April 2005 and is only 11km north west of the city, just a short bus or taxi ride
to the town centre.
By bus fans can take the shuttle service or the ‘Autoservizi Tempesta’ which will transport
you to the main train station at the Piazza Aldo Moro in around 30 minutes for less than €5.
As well as the shuttle you can catch a number 16 Amtab bus which will take you from the
airport to Piazza Aldo Moro. It will be cheaper but will take ten minutes longer. For more info
visit www.autoservizitempesta.it and www.amtabservizio.it
Bari’s main train station, as you’ll see on the map, is situated near to Piazza Aldo Moro. Three
different train companies operate from the station: Trenitalia (www.trenitalia.com) organise
routes from Bari to all major cities in Italy whereas Ferrovie del Sud Est (www.fseonline.it)
and Ferrovie Appulo Lucane (www.fal-srl.it) operate more local and regional routes. Please
make sure you know which company is travelling to your destination as the relevant ticket
offices are not close to each other or even in the same station building.
Bari has a decent bus service and day passes should cost no more than a couple of Euros.
There is a bus information office at Piazza Aldo Moro and the city’s Tourist Information Office
is also situated just off the square, tel: 080 524 23 61. Please remember to frank tickets in the
machines onboard buses or before boarding trains as failure to do so can result in a fine of at
least €50. The Old Town or Bari Vecchia is within walking distance from Piazza Aldo Moro and
should not take you any more than 15 minutes. Bari’s road traffic can seem chaotic especially
at rush hour, so take care walking around the city.
left luggage
Luggage can be left at the main railway station or at the Stazione Maritima Ferry Port, but it
might be quite pricey.
taxis
Official taxis in Bari are white and, as it’s very difficult to hail them on the street, your best
bet is to find a rank which should be close to main squares especially near the Piazza del
Ferrarese and the Piazzo Aldo Moro. Make sure the meter is running when you start your
journey, unless you agree a price. Call Radio Taxi (0039) 080-5543333 www.taxibari.it , Evident
Airport on (0039) 0805316166, or Apulia Taxi (payment by credit card) (0039) 080 5346666
to order.
NUMBERS
security
Like all cities Bari has a problem with pickpockets and bag snatchers. In fact the Baresi people take great delight in telling visitors about
the risks in the Old Town. The main culprits are the ‘Topini’ (little mice) – teenagers on mopeds who snatch your bag and ride off – as
are the ‘i Cheyenne’ – groups of thieves just looking for an opportunity to nick valuables. Always be vigilant when out sightseeing and
only carry what you need. Leave spare cash and valuable items in hotel safety deposits. It is also advisable to leave your passport at the
hotel and carry a photocopy on you. It is best to make sure your passport is valid for more than six months before travelling. More
and more Scotland supporters are sensibly spreading their cash around their bodies in case they are robbed, so perhaps a few Euros in
the sporran, some in the sock and the taxi fare home in another safe place might be a good idea.
If travelling to Bari by car, remember to lock the vehicle and never leave valuables inside, even if only for a short time. Street parking
is not advisable, but there is a free parking area south of the main port and for less than £10 you can leave your car all day at a multistorey car park just east of the main train station.
If you succumb to the pickpockets always make a complaint to the police about the theft (furto) at a police station within 24 hours.
You’ll need to make a statement for an insurance claim.
police
Polizia (the state police who wear pale blue trousers) and Carabinieri (military police seen in black uniform) are the two types of
police in Italy who we will come into contact with – incidents can be reported to both. Generally they keep a low profile with goodnatured fans and are approachable. The main police station is near the castle at Via Giocchino Murat 4, call (0039) 080 5529 1111 for
further information.

smoking ban
A national smoking ban came into effect in Italy in 2005 and it is now illegal to smoke in a
restaurant or bar, punishable by a fine. Act graciously if asked to go outside to smoke. There
may be some places where a smoking section is provided but these appear to be few and
far between. As far as we know, outside areas of bars are not affected by the ban but visitors
should watch out for “Vietato Fumare” (no smoking) signs.
Stadio San Nicola (approximately 5km south of the town centre)
Nicknamed the ‘Spaceship’ or ‘l’Astronave, the impressive home of AS Bari was designed by
famous architect Renzo Piano and was built for the World Cup in 1990. It can hold up to
58,000 fans, but regular attendances can dip below a tenth of that capacity for the Serie B
side’s league matches – a far cry from when David Platt and Paul Elliott strutted their stuff in
the early 90’s. But no doubt it will be full to the gunnels… sorry full to the dilithium crystal
nuclear booster rockets when the national team takes on us Scots. There is not much to do
round about the stadium, mainly because it is built between a motorway and Bari’s ring road,
and there are no official tours.
prices
Stadio Della Vittoria or ‘Bambino Stadium’
(Piazzale Vittario Emanuelle Orlando – the other side of Porto Grande. Not on map)
This former home of AS Bari is nicknamed the ‘Bambino Stadium’. Italian dictator Benito
Mussolini built it in the 30’s as a reward to the citizens of Bari for producing the most male
babies in Italy in a specified period of time.
local quirks
Lungomare Nazario Suaro
Known locally as the ‘Lungomare’, this pleasant promenade snakes its way along the Adriatic
seafront from Porto Vecchio up parallel with the old city walls to the Piazzale Cristoforo
Colombo. It is a relaxing walk and there are numerous restaurants and bars to stop and rest
those weary legs and have a refreshing drink. The entire promenade is said to be 8kms long,
but the beach is best described as modest.
things to avoid
Harbour Area
Here’s a fact – Bari was captured by British and American forces during World War II and was
used as a strategic port by the Allies for supplies used to conduct raids in other parts of Italy
and Germany. On December 2, 1943, the Luftwaffe launched an air attack on Bari resulting
in the sinking of 17 Allied ships and more than 1,000 casualties, including hundreds of deaths
from mustard gas. It’s thought that bombs from the raid hit a British ship containing mustard
gas, which was sitting in port as a deterrent. Much of the old town of Bari, which is close
to the port, was reduced to rubble. The Bari raid was dubbed ‘the second Pearl Harbour’
and became known as one of the most notable Luftwaffe exploits of the war. It was also the
only poisonous gas incident of World War II. For all you nautical sorts there are boat trips
available in this area if you want to recreate Rimini 1990 moments. Although official trips are
recommended!
WINNING WORDS
ESSENTIAL CHECKLIST
As a whole Bari is not as expensive as other Italian cities, but like anywhere else prices will
vary in bars and restaurants. Expect to pay between €3-€5 for a glass of beer. There is good
value in sitting in a local restaurant and sharing a meal and a bottle or two of the local vino.
tipping
10 % is more than generous or €1-5 for a waiter in a restaurant. Some restaurants have
service charge added. Taxi drivers don’t expect a tip in Italy.
The number 17 is considered unlucky in Bari. Queues are commonplace in Italian shops and
banks so prepare for some frustration. ‘Pennichella’ is the Italian equivalent of a siesta and is
taken by a number of locals in the afternoon around 2.30pm-3.30pm.
telephoning
Telephone cards for public payphones are available from Tabacchi (sign is a white T on a dark background) as are tobacco, travel tickets,
stamps and lottery tickets. To call the UK from Bari dial 0044, then the number you wish to dial minus the first zero of the area code.
It might be cheaper to use public phone boxes rather than your mobile. Always check with your mobile phone provider before you
travel in order to ensure compatibility and continued use abroad.
money and banking
Cashpoints or ATMs (Bancomat) are plentiful and most accept bank cards with the Cirrus or Maestro facility. Banks usually open
between 8.30am-1.30pm then from 3pm-4.30pm Monday to Friday. Italy’s currency is the Euro. More often than not, banks have better
exchange rates than Bureaux de Change. Currently the exchange rate is £1 = €1.48.
british consulate
The nearest British Consulate is in Naples at Via dei Mille 40, 80121
tel (0039) 081 4238911
email [email protected]
The Honorary British Consul in Bari is David Gavan. His details are:

Only phone his mobile (0039) 335 403802 in an emergency.
His email is: [email protected]
While in Italy it’s best to avoid the expressive use of hand gestures which can cause real
offence. Slapping the forearm at the elbow and thumbing the nose as well as offensive finger
salutes should not be used. Family ties are especially strong in Southern Italy so avoid careless
comments. Many Italians are very protective of their Latin Catholic traditions especially near
Easter time, so approaching churches bare chested, or any act inside the building which could
be deemed disrespectful should not be considered.
health care
weather
The main hospital should you need one is the Policlinico, Piazza Giulio Cesare, which is the other side of the railway station.
tel (0039) 080 559 1111
Bari is in the South of Italy on the Adriatic coast and we will be visiting at the end of March,
so there is a good chance that pleasant spring weather will be enjoyed by all. But there is
always the chance of chilly nights and rain – so come prepared.
time
Italy is one hour ahead of British Standard time.
Make sure you have a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC available at UK post offices) which will make emergency care available
to all visitors to Italy. However it is recommended you take out full insurance while travelling abroad.
