Josh TaroliMay 29, 2017There must be poems about Sciascia's "caffè eccellente". They line the cup with some liquid chocolate, before adding the espresso. Stir a bit before drinking. An absolute must for every Rome visit.

MisoSeptember 11, 2016Spent a lovely Sunday morning sat against the wall with a couple espressos and cornettos followed by a couple americanos because we couldn't bring ourselves to leave! Beautiful cafe and atmosphere.
- Merve AkcasuMarch 7, 2018Such a cozy coffee place. After Vatican, we had our coffee and biscuits here and continued to Castelo Sant’Angelo. Perfect choice for Italian coffee atmosphere. No need to say but perfetto coffee!
Tom in RomeApril 7, 2018As I often do, I’m taking Katie Parla’s advice and including this, although I’ve only been there rarely. It’s a grand old caffè in the Italian tradition; good coffee and great service. Treat yourself.
Sonya RytovaMay 2, 2022A real Italian cafeteria with the cutest shop inside! Hot chocolate is incredibly delicious. In the morning you can get very tasty fresh croissants! Cool sandwiches - all day (warm them up🤌)
Constance | @croostifoodiNovember 5, 2018Very good coffee - try the famous espresso with chocolate. Venue looks nicely old and traditional. Great Italian experience for a quick coffee.
Emre B.June 2, 2017Very good coffee in an authentic shop. Great idea for a break in between Vatican and Castel Sant'angelo. Don't leave without trying tiramisu.
LaylaJanuary 9, 2019Lovely coffee and variety of pastries. Such an authentic atmosphere, come here for a quick breakfast before going to see the Vatican ;)
AnastasiaAugust 5, 2015Amazing. The interior, the cups, people, everything is splendid about this place. The coffee is great and brioches are to die for
Shahad 🍯April 9, 2019Highly recommended cafe .. we tried coffee prestige and 1919 it was amazing .. and don’t miss their tiramisu too
Konstantina 👑November 29, 2015Nice place for a quick break from sightseeing.Beautiful atmosphere,the staff doesn't speak english but is friendly and very smiley!!- A BJuly 27, 2015Granitas are really tasty, the service is helpful and pleasant. Authentic and cozy place, not touristic yet close to Vatican. PS their coffee beans are well priced
Κωνσταντίνος ΣουλελέςOctober 16, 2015nice decoration, it's not a place to relax but for a quick coffee, they don't speak english but they are so polite and friendly. music is pop and there is wifi available
Maxine VanvuchelenApril 27, 2018Very nice cappuccino and very friendly staff! Excellent choice to sit down for a while.
Ish RaiJanuary 7, 2017Had the best coffee and pastries here. Coffee is definitely a must when in Vatican City.
AmateurConciergeJune 5, 2015Come for a nice Roman macchiato if you are in Prati. One euro: can't beat regulated coffee prices
Jouni PirhonenMarch 26, 2022Recommendation to order Caffè espresso l'Eccellente and croissant with cream.
D OAugust 28, 2014It's a very small coffee shop not to far from the Vatican but in my humble opinion they might just make the best espresso in Rome or the world.
Alice LinDecember 11, 2012Get the caffe with chocolate. It's basically an espresso with chocolate. Best in Rome!
Efisio PalaOctober 31, 2017Delicious Italian breakfast with cappuccino & brioche. You can also buy freshly ground coffee there.
Reese WallingSeptember 28, 2019Best espresso shop (so far). Delicious chocolate espresso drink and the pastries are great too.
Eugene FeudorovOctober 5, 2016Spectacular place, only beautiful Italian visitors :) and not expensive. And sure lovely cappuccino👌
Krystallia DimitriadouJune 3, 2022Delicious espresso and cappuccino. Tasty pastries. Great service and a lovely interior!
Lena SJune 12, 2023Coffee is great, croissants are ok. You should order at the counter, get your food / beverages and then find a seat. The waiter is too overloaded, so you'll be waiting for him forever
Σίσσυ ΚουτσοδήμουFebruary 20, 2018Espresso with chocolate was fantastic! Try also the desserts and take back home coffee!

"Great scenic 270 degrees views of the city up top. The walk up and around the elevated castle is worth it, but don't get too carried away taking photos, because each level brings an even better view."
James Kuang - 9.4
"After all these years the architecture still has a total wow factor. A great view of St Peters and a must have photo opportunity"
