Roscioli Caffè Pasticceria in Central Rome

How much is too much?? I thought of this when I entered Roscioli Caffè Pasticceria in Rome because I wanted to try everything- fresh panini, maritozzi, cornetti, coffee etc. It was thanks to the excellent reviews by my friends living in Rome that I got a chance to try Roscioli Caffè Pasticceria. Hands down one of my favorite places to eat in Central Rome (near Campo de’ Fiori), Roscioli Caffè is also a stone’s throw away from Antico Roscioli Forno where you get piping hot goodies from the oven!

Roscioli Caffè Pasticceria in Central Rome

Roscioli Caffè Pasticceria is a Bar owned by the Roscioli family. They take both their coffee and pastries quite seriously and you will realize this the minute you enter the place around 8 in the morning. 

Roscioli is fully packed with locals and tourists alike. It is a typical noisy Roman bar that is worth visiting for coffee and pastries.  There’s a small counter where you can stand and have your caffè or there is an option of going inside in the seating area. (free Wifi too!!)

For my coffee, I sometimes stand at the Bar like the Italians do and on other times I sit and enjoy my cappuccino at leisure. Roscioli in Central Rome also has a great selection of delicious treats such as the heavenly Maritozzi pastry. You can even buy fresh bread for your dinner at home!
