Cocktail Bars in Rome, Italy

Salotto 42 is a hip bar located in the beautiful Piazza di Pietra near the Pantheon in Rome. We went to the locale a few Fridays ago after hearing rave reviews from our Roman friends. Of course we went for the aperitivo as we know it is the most economic way to enjoy a bar in Rome. There was a healthy sized crowd of people spilling out into the piazza which we took as a good sign. Inside the dimly lit bar there is an assortment of couches in the center of the small room while either side is lined by bar stools.

The focal point is the giant T.V screen which continually broadcasts an image of fish in an aquarium adding to the modish atmosphere inside. We tried to enjoy the night from the point of view of a tourist and we just find it hard to justify a skimpy aperitivo with poorly mixed drinks and snobby service. Seating is inadequate if you would like to sit and relax, but maybe during the week it is not as full allowing you your choice of seating. All in all you can find better value for money elsewhere in Rome.
