"The quality of pastries and coffee served around the Vatican Museums entrance is notoriously abysmal. Or at least it was until Love Specialty Croissants opened a few blocks north of the busiest place in town. The pastry case is loaded with French- and Italian-style laminated delights, both savory and sweet, while the caffeinated beverages are derived from single-origin beans selected and roasted by Rome’s own Aliena Coffee Roasters. Pastry and coffee worlds collide in the Moon Love, a flaky pastry crescent filled with coffee cream and topped coffee crumble and more cream." - Katie Parla
