Monti, Esquilino & San Lorenzo


Housed in a 1920s chocolate factory, this hybrid cafe-bar, restaurant and boutique is San Lorenzo’s most fashionable address. Its top-quality chocolate can be indulged in here or purchased to take home. Enjoying a coffee, dessert or meal in the urban-chic interior will give you lots of opportunities to people-watch as the place literally heaves at night, particularly on weekends.

For a wickedly decadent treat, order a chocolate cocktail (€10) or hot chocolate (€4 to €6).
