Piazza del Fico, 26, 00186 Roma RM, Italy
Steps from Piazza Navona, Bar del Fico manages to be a neighbourhood local rather than a tourist trap. Old men play chess in the morning; laptop-toting creatives take over at lunch; the evening brings a mixed crowd of Romans and visitors for aperitivo. The outdoor tables on the small piazza are perpetually busy. Good cocktails at reasonable prices. One of the most versatile and atmospheric bars in the historic centre.
