Caffe Balduina is probably the greatest cafe in the world. Their cappuccinos are like ambrosia of…read morethe gods and they're unbelievably cheap. The best part of this cafe however, is the friendly staff. By my third time visiting this cafe the barista had memorized my order and immediately started preparing it when I walked in. The seats outside the cafe provide a perfect place to unironically smoke a cigarette while sipping Italian coffee and waxing poetry over our tortured existence. Caffe balduina is the best cafe on planet earth and if I could, I would take a private jet and fly from California to Rome every morning to get coffee here.

Loved this cafe! Plenty of space and a relaxing atmosphere. I got a cappuccino and cornetto and…read morethey were both delicious. The baristas were very friendly and offered many great options to someone we were with that preferred iced tea to coffee. This day I went in around 9am but I would love to go back at night for a drink sometime.

A gem of a breakfast/lunch spot that is a short walk away from The Vatican. Fabrica is a fairly…read moreintimate cafe that has an entry of a small garden and shop. We didn't need a reservation and we were able to get a table for six without any issue. The decor felt like we were living in a those vintage metal tin wall decor with the arrangement of bicycles, vintage art, and plants. From poached eggs and avocado toast to french toast, everything was super tasty and beautifully presented. The highlight was their desserts and I'm still drooling just thinking about them. The outside from the street might feel quaint but it's a must try when you're in the area.

They also have coffee and soft drinks. Staff aren't too warm, but are prompt and make sure your order is fulfilled. Prices aren't bad either. The store is decorated and extremely clean.

Everything was delicious! Had the smoked salmon pizza, connolino, aragostino and tiramisu.read more

This is the best Castroni in Rome…read more The Castroni by the Vatican is the most well-known of the Castroni chain, but it is tiny in comparison to the Balduina-Monte Mario Castroni. This store truly has everything to suit every gastronomical taste. Fresh espresso bar, tramezzini, panini. A great place to take a guest for an afternoon snack. The ideas for gifts are endless here. You can't go wrong giving a box of gourmet candy, and this is where the Monte Mario Castroni really shines. Beautiful fruit candies, either soft or hard chews, are available by the kilo. Plus, you can get amazing boxes of chocolate that are worth their price. Also, if you spend over 50 Euro, you can get a free Castroni tote, too. Spending over 50 is very, very easy to do here.

I love this place when visiting Rome. Yes, I know, Rome has so many restaurants that are…read moredelicious, but this place kinda feels like you're at your family's house! The people who own Homebaked make you feel like you're family! There is a lot of different kinds of food here that range from breakfast to lunch, but any time of day, I will get breakfast from here! I usually order the pancakes with eggs and sausage. The portions are similar to the ones you would get in the US so if you're not a big eater, you can probably share! I always have food to take home afterwards. They also make tasty caffe lattes and they do have soda from America (which apparently taste different to my daughter). The ambiance, like I said, makes you feel like you're at home. It's clean and comfortable. Sometimes they do get really busy and you'd have to wait for a table, but I think it's worth it.
