Botteghe Antiche

Botteghe Antiche faces Piazza Plebiscito in the historic center of Putignano, beneath the palace that houses the Museo Principe Guglielmo Romanazzi Carducci di Santo Mauro. Its name recalls the artisan workshops that once animated this part of town. The restaurant brings that connection with the past into a setting where contemporary design accompanies the older building. Inside there is space for up to forty diners. In the warmer season, tables extend onto the square, with aromatic herbs around the outdoor area and the church bell tower forming part of the surroundings. Chef Stefano D’Onghia builds his cooking around memories of regional food, reinterpreting familiar preparations through presentation and technique. Ingredients follow the seasons, with an emphasis on small producers and a sustainable supply chain. The result is a changing menu rather than a fixed collection of dishes intended to remain identical throughout the year. A basket of bread and focaccia made in the kitchen welcomes guests at the table, giving the meal a direct connection to the restaurant’s own daily preparation. Wine is another substantial part of the offer: the cellar lists eight hundred labels, encompassing conventional and natural wines. The restaurant’s character comes from the combination of its position on the square, its interest in local culinary memory and the chef’s willingness to reshape that inheritance. Tables can be requested through the online booking service or by telephone. It is a useful choice for visitors who want their meal to remain closely connected to Putignano’s historic center.
