23 Best Bars in Rome

"Quite possibly Rome's coolest bar—a moody, late-night speakeasy that's a mash up of bare-brick walls and exposed pipes and your granny's florid armchair beside frilly white doilies covered in old candle wax. The cocktails are even served in what looks like your gran's old crystal wear; but that's where the similarities end. The crowd—so-called beautiful people, with long, glossy hair and tattoos—is half of why you come. The other half, of course, is for the drinks. We love “Le Papillon,” a heady, warming blend of whisky, lime juice, lapsang tea syrup, pepper, and ginger beer." - Maresa Manara
