Came back here twice on my short trip to Rome because the coffee and pastry was so good! The doughnut with cream and pistachio cornetto was the best I had everywhere in Italy. Service was really friendly too

If you are visiting the Museo Borghese this is a perfect place to stop before or after your visit. We had two sandwiches, two deserts, and a drink and it was under 15 Euros. This place from a volume and taste perspective kicks the tourist traps nearer the bigger sights by a country mile. The service was exemplary. They were patient and helpful. Wish we had this place down the street from our home.
