19 Best Spots for Aperitivo in Rome

"Trattorias are generally great for aperitivo, and Saba proves the point. It's simple but stylish, with natural timber and exposed brick walls plus plenty of glass to let the light shine in. But the killer feature of this all-day joint hidden on Rome's peaceful Aventine hill is an outdoor shaded courtyard, hemmed in by bougainvillea and fragrant jasmine. In the summer, it's utterly glorious. Saba has strong wine game, with a menu showing off many of Italy's finest labels. Stay classic. Staff are friendly and approachable, and the canapés are exquisite." - Maresa Manara
