A speakeasy to our taste: the Jerry Thomas Project, located in the basement of the Hotel Campo de'Fiori, invites you to cozy evenings with creative cocktails. The entrance is hidden behind a bookcase that opens at the push of a button. There you lounge in chic velvet armchairs, sip your Negroni, and soak up the dimly elegant atmosphere.

The view alone is worth the visit: the Court Rooftop Bar in Palazzo Manfredi offers a direct view of the Colosseum. In addition, the cocktail bar spoils with excellent drinks, created with care by the mixologists. The ambience - modern, colorful and yet elegant - is also convincing.

A favorite among locals is Ristorante & Bar del Fico, located in Piazza Navona. Things are a bit more casual here: the bar is decorated in a shabby-chic style. Overhead, the glass ceiling gives a view of the sky, and all around, Romans and Roman women put their heads together in animated conversation. By the way, if you're hungry you should definitely take a look at the menu: it's delicious!
