Here is a small selection, not exhaustive, of the most famous Roman cafes. Simple beverage in most countries, coffee in Rome and Italy can lend itself to a certain complexity, which can be tasted in various ways: espresso (classic short coffee), lungo (elongated), ristretto (shorter coffee), macchiato (with a cloud of milk), latte (with milk), corretto (watered with alcohol, often grappa). In addition, coffees often offer other clean preparations, such as accompanying coffee with chocolate and/or ice cream, etc
Next to the classic bar, some pastries, groceries or bakeries also sometimes serve very good coffees or cappuccinos.

Very nice cloister with a loggia on the first floor which hosts a bar and cafeteria terraces with tables. Ideal to relax, having a drink, a coffee or a cappuccino.
Simple and little bar, the San Callisto, usually called the Bar, is fairly economical and offers good ice cream or hot chocolate. It’s friendly step during day or even in the evening where an eclectic population, local and foreign, happily occupies the terrace. Too crowded some nights, like Friday or Saturday.
