Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We have been going to Cristall for 7 years every February but were very disappointed in the food on this particular occasion. The salads we had were bland, tasteless and over priced. They used to do the best salads in Bormio. We suspect there has...been a change in ownership and therefore a serious dip in standards.More

We stayed 4 days in Bormio me and my family this time. And we eat at least 2 times a day in cristall bar. Lovely food and very professional staff. We also like it because it’s very clean and cozy atmosphere. It’s a perfect place...to also bring the kids. When you sit outside it’s a lovely view of the mountains and slopes. We love cristall bar. They have all kind of food and it’s super good. We will come back soon:) Love from SwedenMore

Have been here for lunch twice this week. Day 1. Pizzoccheri and Sciat... local dishes. Loved the pizzoccheri so much we had it on Day 2... with a beautifully fresh panini... and our request for a cappuccino after lunch was not sneered at as can...be the case in Italy.More

Delicious local dishes are a must-try. I've been there on different occasions and would gladly return. Great for big meals as well as aperitifs alike.

Great place to meet after a day on the slopes, the family who own the bar are very friendly, the food is great, this is our fifteenth year on and off, so we know a good Bormio bar when we see one.

We've been visiting Bormio for many years & have always had a very warm welcome at the Cristall bar. Their menu gets better every year and we had a great meal last night. Lots of local and regional dishes plus great burgers, sandwiches and pizzas...too. Their pork shank was excellent and one of the best spaghetti olio, aglio, peperoncino you'll find.More

Here I had the best carbonara in Bormio! The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The fresh orange juice made me want more and more and the carbonara.. it was the best I’ve ever had I think (sure, the fresh air and physical activity at...the mountain made me very hungry too). The menu was diverse enough and prices reasonable. When in Bormio try this place out!More

We ate here several times because it was good, had nice service, and was open for full meals in the afternoon. My husband was delighted by availability of a very good Tuscan wine for just four Euros a glass. Pasta was very yummy. Salads were...generous. Fresh squeezed lemonade! Thank you, Bar Cristall!More

Was looking for a quick pizza dinner; don't be fooled by the pizzeria next door. But we lucked out with some shared salad plates, and then a great burger (the Gavia burger). Not much of a wine selection, we probably should have gone for a...beer instead. Not very crowded for dinner.More
