Luckily, there are multiple take away restaurants on that same street so it was easy to go grab some food and bring it back to the pub. Service was friendly enough.

We ordered one of their more natural red wines available chilled, and Pane & Olio EVOO, and Salsiccette al Tartufo. The bread was so fresh (baked in house daily), and also came with a spicy olive oil option as well as salt and pepper and a plate to dip. The sausage was the perfect little snacking cup with toothpicks and overall everything went well with our wine. They also gave us the little circular baked crackers to dip in our wine. When we were called we were moved to the main dining area which was adorable. Nearly every table had unique artwork on the surrounding walls. We then ordered more of the same wine, the Bonaccia salad, and the Parmigiana di Melanzane con Ricotta Salata. The salad was SO good. It was perfect with lemon and delicious olive oil dressing and an even mix of lettuce, cooked diced potatoes, olives, octopus, sundried cherry tomatoes. The eggplant was a fantastic texture, not too soft but tender and the cheese on it was immaculate. We were too full for dessert but the waiter offered us free limoncello shots as a night cap. My favorite part of this spot was how fun and kind the staff were to us. Letting me practice my Italian, giving great recommendations and overall being super accomodating. I'd love to come back.

What an Experience! Our first taste of Italian cuisine in Italy did not disappoint--thanks to Pepy's Bar! Nestled right on the corner of Via Sistina, this gem offers more than just a meal--it delivers a vibe. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming, and the ambiance set the perfect tone for an unforgettable evening. Special shoutouts to Daniele, our amazing waiter, whose friendly and calm personality made us feel right at home. He was incredibly patient as we tried to communicate what we wanted, and his warm demeanor made our visit all the more enjoyable. And of course, MOSE', who turned our dinner into a mini photoshoot with his charm and energy! Now let's talk food: the fettuccini bolognese, lasagna, and pizza were all plated beautifully, served in hearty portions, and absolutely delicious. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. We sipped on wine and beer to quench our thirst, soaking in the experience. And now... we wait for dessert. If you're in Rome and craving an authentic Italian meal with top-tier service, hurry up and go to Pepy's Bar. Trust us--your taste buds will thank you! read more

The AC/DC and Beach Boys blaring at 8am is quite a wake up to experience over breakfast. Overall great breakfast selection that is not some sort of sweet pastry. They have the sweet stuff too, but Rome had pastries coming out of its ears, so a savory offering is a nice change. Eggs, omelettes, toast, full English breakfast, avocado toast. Their side of bacon is a whole salad plate of bacon done crispy, so plan to share. Or be gluttonous, you're on vacation, right? Dinner is another beast entirely. 80s seat music, people smoking inside, and a limited but nice beer selection. No one will give you side-eye for ordering your burger well-done here.
