Torre Aurora

Sea, cuisine & cocktails in  Monterosso al Mare

Aurora Tower cocktail bar and restaurant, set in a land of outstanding beauty right on the sea and just underneath the Cappuccini’s hill, separates Fegina’s area from the Ancient Village. The original Tower was built around the year 1000 in order to fight back pirates’ attacks. In the second half of the XIII century it was annexed to the Republic of Genoa’s property and fortified so as to oppose resistance to barbarians’ and Pisans’ incursions. Later on the Tower was transformed into a private property and open to the public in 2017. To this date the tower’s upstairs floors are of private use only therefore not to be visited.

Elia Bellingeri, the young owner of Aurora Tower, has brought to life a unique restaurant, in a strategic spot of historical value, boasting a breathtaking view over Monterosso’s Gulf and in particular over all the “Cinque Terre”, without spoiling the beauty of Aurora’s ancient tower and taking care of every single detail. The general atmosphere with its sparkly vibes to the choice of furnishings, from the renovation process with its care for the environment to the high quality of its services.

Every single dish is prepared using carefully selected and especially chosen ingredients only, i.e. the excellences of our territory, paying particular attention to the various combinations so as to always deliver perfect dishes.

All day long aurora tower’s menu offers gourmet salads, traditional dishes alongside fish and meat based dishes, fishing up with our chef’s homemade desserts.

Many labels are available inside aurora tower’s cellar as ligurian cellars’ signatures, or from big italian labels and international label such as french champagne.

Aurora tower’s “ace in the sleeve” is “barbaforte” brewery, a rising star in the widespread italian beer market. Officially the latter produces beer “in beer firm” (outsourced) since 2013, but this has been just a temporary phase leading “barbaforte” brewery very far within its market, especially considering the meticulous care which distinguishes every single one of its products.
