Open Baladin

Centro Storico


This modern pub near Campo de’ Fiori has long been a leading light in Rome’s craft-beer scene, and with 40 beers on tap and up to 100 bottled brews (many from Italian artisanal microbreweries) it's a top place for a pint. As well as great beer, expect burgers (€9 to €18), a laid-back vibe and a young, international crowd.
