The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Prati
Just steps away from the chaos of the centre, Prati is the closest Rome gets to calm. Meticulously planned in a neat grid, quite unlike neighbouring Borgo, Prati is a local favourite for its aesthetic organisation and wide streets lined with a range of boutiques for every shopping fantasy. Nonnis pushing baby carriages and gossiping teens own every inch of the sidewalk, but that’s only during business hours. Once the sun sets, quirky sidestreet bars celebrate aperitivo hour, those evening cocktails that help wash away the tensions of Roman life.
How to get there
- Ottaviano - San Pietro - Musei Vaticani • 6 min walk
- Lepanto • 10 min walk

- Emily M1 contributionGreat drinks and hot bartendersBest bar I have ever been to hands down. One bartender in specific (can’t remember his name but he has lots of neck tattoos) invented a drink on the spot that blew me away. He was also so kind and welcoming and a cutie. Made my night:)Visited December 2021Travelled with friendsWritten 17 December 2021
- ReshadRome, Italy1 contributionStaff speaks english, most of the drinks are under 10 euros. Place is pretty cozy considering its in the basementCheap drinking place for students and young tourists. Staff speaks English and Rum n Coke is pretty good for 5 euro. Overall, considering that drinks in most places of Rome costs over 10 euros, its pretty good.Visited March 2022Travelled with friendsWritten 7 March 2022
- Mick V1 contributionGreat bar in Prati areaWent to Rome for a weekend and stumbled upon this little bar in Prati. This was the best bar I have seen in Rome so far. The bartenders were extremely friendly, the vibe was great, and drinks were cheap. Highly recommend for a great time!Visited March 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 10 March 2023

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I love coming to the Basement with my friends to hang out and watch the games every Sunday! We also come for Pong Wednesdays. It’s a great casual place for drinks, a great night out, and they have very good cocktails (get the Green Goblin). Max is the best!
