Lettere Caffè

Trastevere & Gianicolo


Like books? Poetry? Blues, folk and jazz? Then you’ll love this place: a clutter of bar stools and books, where there are regular live gigs, poetry slams, book launches and DJ sets. Between 7pm and 9pm, you can graze on the vegetarian aperitivo buffet when you buy a drink (beer and wine from €5, cocktails €7).
