Why we recommend it

La Casa del Caffè Tazza d'Oro began as a coffee roastery in 1944 and its bar, a few steps from Piazza della Rotonda, has been a favourite of Romans and visitors ever since. The counter fills quickly with people stopping for a quick espresso or cappuccino between sights.

In warm weather the house speciality is granita di caffè, crushed iced coffee often served with whipped cream, a refreshing alternative to gelato; in winter, hot chocolate takes over. Pay at the till first, then hand your receipt to the barista, as is customary in Roman bars. Bags of house-roasted beans and speciality teas are sold to take home, and the Pantheon is literally around the corner.
