From 1 to 31 August inclusive, the Magazzino Dianella takes its summer holiday. But note: the Magazzino does not close. It simply goes on holiday to Villa Dianella.
What does this mean? That at Dianella you can still eat exactly as always, at the same fast everyday pace. Only the place changes: from 1 to 31 August lunch is no longer served at the Magazzino along the road, but moves up to the villa, in the cool, among the vineyards and the hills of Vinci. Same menu, same spirit, same everyday appointment — only where you sit changes.
Same Menu, Same Pace: Only the Place Changes
The Magazzino is Dianella’s everyday lunch: fast, fresh, no-frills. Garden dishes, traditional first courses, estate produce, served with the same speed as always. It is a point of reference for those who work in Empoli and the surrounding area and for those passing through who need a practical lunch, not an elegant dinner.
From 1 to 31 August, as the heat becomes intense, that lunch changes only its address, not its spirit. It moves up to the villa, in the heart of the estate, where the shade of the stable courtyard, the breeze rising from the valley and the green of the vineyards make lunchtime a cooler moment. But the menu stays exactly the same as the Magazzino’s: the same dishes, the same fast service, the same simple, genuine cooking as always. It is not a different lunch, more elaborate or more expensive: it is the same fast, informal lunch as always, only in a cooler place.
A Cooler Break, Without Losing Time
The idea is simple: in the hottest month of the year, to offer those who stop for lunch a cooler place, without changing anything else. Service stays as quick as always: those with a half-hour lunch break find the same fast pace of the Magazzino, just with a vineyard view instead of the road.
Those who work in August know how much a real break matters, but also how much it matters not to lose time. And at Villa Dianella that break stays short and practical as always: only the setting changes. Eating in the cool, away from the heat, with the vineyards all around, in the same amount of time as always.
It is the same lunch as always, fast and unpretentious, experienced in a place that adds just one thing: a bit more coolness and greenery.
Don’t Be Afraid to Come to the Villa
There are those who know the Magazzino well but have never set foot in the villa, perhaps thinking it is a different kind of place, more formal or more expensive. From 1 to 31 August is the perfect occasion to see that it isn’t.
There is no formality, nothing to be wary of, no dress code, no different cost. Coming to lunch at the villa in August is as simple and natural as going to the Magazzino: same menu, same fast service, same price as always. Only the place changes, for the better. It is an extra possibility to enjoy, not a change to fear.
So from 1 to 31 August, when you look for the Magazzino, come up to the villa. We await you at the table, with the same lunch as always — fast, fresh, no-frills — just with the vineyard view as a bonus. The Magazzino is on holiday at Villa Dianella, and you are invited too.
