AntiCafe, especially in contrast to most Italian cafes, sets out to do something different, to…read moreappeal to students and casual coffee drinker alike. If you simply want a place to step in out of the weather, you can pay for a coffee normally and drink it at the bar or tables inside at the front. Yet, if, like me and many other students, you are looking for a place to work for hours, you have come to the right place. AntiCafe allows you to pay for time spent at the cafe, offering a quiet workspace, coffee, and light snacks, as many as you wish to have. The WIFI functions properly and you can focus on what needs to be done, instead of whether or not the place will throw you out if you overstay your welcome. You simply take a ticket at the front as you walk in, take a seat at any of the tables behind the counter, and pay when you leave. Make sure to show your student ID too, as there is a discount offered for students. Otherwise, if you don't need to study, there are board games available to play with friends. Try this place out!

AntiCafé is a lovely establishment that saved my butt (more on that later), so I'm obviously…read morebiased, but here are some other reasons why AntiCafé is a great spot! AntiCafé is workspace/internet cafe that offers you unlimited refreshments, snacks, and WiFI in a comfortable atmosphere for working or relaxing. You pay per hour, with their no-stress system of paying when you leave, as opposed to a fixed set of time upfront when you first enter. Printer services are also offered at the cafe for 10 cents per color page. AntiCafé has really accessible hours (9/10am to 10pm) and is exceptionally easy to find (2 minute walk from San Giovanni Stazione on the A/red metro line, 3 stops away from Termini Stazione). The prices are extremely cheap and reasonable, and clearly laid out on their website (4€ first hour/3€ for next hour/14€ for the day; + several subscription options). There is also a student discount! The cafe itself is well lit, modern, cozy, and clean. If I wasn't in such a rush at the time I visited, I wouldn't loved to take a little break from the hustle and bustle of the city here. There is a variety of set-ups available within the cafe, from larger tables for groupwork, couches (with board games!) to lounge, or individual tables for those flying solo. How AntiCafé saved my day: as a first time Ryanair flier, I did not have the foresight to double check that their wild policies of charging for check-in/boarding pass printing at the airport. I knew that I could circumvent these charges by checking in online/via the App, and showing my electronic boarding pass at the airport. I did not double check that FCO (Fiumicino Airport) does not accept electronic boarding passes. In a mad dash to print out my boarding passes before my flight the next day, I found AntiCafé and made it in roughly 40 minutes before closing. The staff was wonderfully patient with the non-Italian-speaking me, and informed me that for the printing services I did not have to pay for my time (just for each page instead!). For their printing services, you must email your documents to the staff and they will print out your documents for you. As I flubbed around with my phone, suddenly forgetting how to technology in my frazzled state, the staff calmly helped me navigate the mobile website and get everything printed out for me accordingly. It was a refreshing experience compared to some other less pleasantly patient service experiences I've had in Italy. Really memorable for me, personally. All in all, a really neat spot with everything you could ever want from a workspace cafe!

When my friends and I asked the manager of our hotel where he would take his family or friends for…read morea casual dinner in the San Lorenzo area of Rome, he recommended La Pantera Rosa. So on our first night in Italy (this was years ago), we decided to try this restaurant out, and we were pleasantly surprised! Smart casual restaurant with a good selection of local food. We tried quite a few things and everything turned out flavorful. Our waiter, Mike, made it a fun and engaging dinner with great service and hospitality. I would definitely return here on my next visit to Rome.

Lovely staff and amazing food, I highly recommend this place.

The staff was very accompanying given the language barrier, and did their very best to make sure we understood what foods were specialities and which wines we should select with them. Given this was a 5 star dining experience we did not expect after coming across this restaurant on a walk by our hotel I definitely recommend this place to any and everyone. If you are an English speaker this is still a welcoming restaurant, which is something I can't say the same for at most Italian high dining/ upscale restaurants. Personally recomend the lobster as it was amazing.
