Forno Feliziani

Vatican City, Borgo & Prati


Ditch the tourist traps around the Vatican Museums in favour of this tavola calda, Italy’s version of fast food. Instead of ordering from a menu, you choose from dishes that are ready and waiting: waitstaff usher homey pastas, roasted vegetables, pizza by the slice and handmade pastries from the glassed-in kitchen to the counter – the perfect fuel for before or after sightseeing.
