Support your local - and not-so-local bookstore!…read more Visited Rome last week and while enjoying Campo de Fiori and Taba Cafe saw this place. I just started learning Italian half a year ago so thought I'd drop in and see if I could find a modern Italian novel that doesn't have post-modern Italian, but something I could reliably derive grammar and vocab from. So I tried my best to get that across to the bearded gentleman who I suspect is the proprietor. What a great guy. His English may not be perfect, but it's far better than my Italian! We went from that brief exchange to some chatting about Italian cinema and Monica Vitti. He pointed out the cool vintage movie posters decorating this place. May seem like a little thing, but experiences like this just made me love visiting Rome all the more. Grazie mille!

Mondadori retail is an Italian chain of bookstores called Librerie Mondadori. I believe I've seen…read moretheir other location downtown, agh sure, city centre, Centro Storico. That other one is rather large, this one is smaller. There are also namesake outlets in the shopping malls. They could be franchises, I'm not too sure. The store offers children's area with toys and games, there is a space with gadgets and gifts featuring stationery, and the rest of it, well, Italian and other European titles and popular American and British books in translation, like Harry Potter. All books grouped by genre i. e. divided by sections, fantasy, romance novels, best sellers, featured, travels, maps, discount section, etc. They hold author events and celebrity appearances, just like U.S. bookstores.

Very small 1-room bookstore selling all-English books in Trastevere…read more About 20% of the store is Italy travel-related books. Ok to stick your head in real quick, but not worth a trip out of your way to visit.

If you're into anything from history of cultures to yoga and meditation to all things religion and spiritual this is the place to go. You can easily get lost in all of the options.

We were staying in Rome and just walking around the neighborhood looking for something to do when…read morewe stumbled onto Red. It was the books that drew us in, but decided to stay and grab a bite to eat. I had a chicken sandwich and my fiance has a caesar salad. Both dishes were delicious! They were very flavorful and the most American meal we had while in Rome. My sandwich also came with fries which were perfect. They had an extensive wine list and many patrons were just having a glass of wine and sharing small appetizers. The ambiance was quaint, and would recommend this spot.

This place is such a great find. If you were looking for a place to have breakfast or brunch, you…read moremight accidentally pass it, as from the outside it resembles a book store. Ahhh, but this is part of its charm. The place has a quiet and cozy atmosphere. There are books and reading material aplenty. They have fresh (real) orange juice (albeit it was a bit pricey at 4 euros for a small glass). They have a wide array of prepared breakfast items ranging from yogurt with granola, to sandwiches, to postres. Be on the look out for it's big red sign and stop in for a peaceful way to start your day!
