-
Rome’s premier literary café since 1760, best known for its popularity with the 19th-century English Romantic poets.
-
Good for a very pricey spot of tea and other daintily British edibles. Opened in 1893 by a Derbyshire lady, it was the ex-pat hub of the later Grand Tour era.
-
A little bit of Bavaria right near the Spanish Steps, complete with wood benches, pretzels and litre-sized mugs of beer.
-
The right-wing bastion in the long-standing Piazza del Popolo café war, with cheaper espresso , better ice cream and a restaurant upstairs (the Rosati is more stylish, though).
-
Art Nouveau rival to the right-wing Canova across the piazza, this has long been the haunt of left-wing intellectuals.
-
Rome’s most central disco has remained popular for years, with a pizzeria in the evening and dance music cranking up at midnight. High cover charge on weekends, but always an A-list crowd.
-
Perfect mix of tradition and modernity at this large, relaxed wine bar. Recently, they’ve added outdoor tables for enjoying their fine pastas and pizzas.
-
Self-styled “Scottish pub” with an occasional DJ and, Monday to Wednesday, live music.
-
Post-Modern wine bar serving salads and sandwiches with a few tables outside. They also have a very good speciality foods store at Piazza di Spagna 65.
-
Every British ex-pat seems to have adopted this Victorian-style pub as his or her own, lending it an air of authenticity.
