OH MY GOD. I love charcuterie so my BFF found this lovely gem on our last night in Rome. This place will blow your mind; delicious meats and cheeses plus a perfect instagram picture who can beat that?! It's a tiny little place and they don't have a waitlist so you have to stand around the door outside and keep to the honor system. When you actually get a seat, you have to go to the counter, order yourself, grab your own water...basically serve yourself! They don't have a restaurant license so they're in violation if they serve you etc. But who cares?! The food is to die for and trust me...you'll eat it all...after you snap a pic of course! read more

Cantina dei Papi - Wine Bars Near Me - Rome, RM

There's not a lot of seating inside or outside and they don't take reservations (as it's not a restaurant but a snackery) so make sure to come at off hours so you don't have to wait. Once you're in there, enjoying the delicious cheese and meat boards, with great local wines to match, you won't be in a hurry to leave. read more

Was a very fun experience to eat here The prosciutto and salami were the best I've had Kinda hectic of an environment but read the signs to understand the way things work. When entering you walk to the back to order, might seem like a line but people are eating at the little tables on the wall. We ordered the medium platter and a pasta The pasta was really oily, and the platter was more than enough for two read more

Absolutely to die for - my new favorite place in Rome! I'm so thankful to Yelp for leading me to it, as I had walked right past it a couple times without even realizing. It's quite small without traditional tables, more so just stools and benches you can set your food/drinks on (they're at the same height, so be ready to lean a bit!). Per the reviews, I tried to come at a bit of an "off time" so there wouldn't be a big line or wait - I came around 4pm and it was perfect! No line, and only a couple other people in there. There is a chalkboard menu but someone came and asked if I needed help before I had to spend a lot of time deciphering it. She said to pick between a small, medium, and large board, and she would take care of the rest, assuming I didn't have any issue with that. I asked for a small and told her one or two small things I didn't like (sun dried tomatoes are NOT my thing), but said anything else was fair game. It took probably 5-8 minutes for the board to be created, since they're all being individually crafted. I grabbed a half bottle of wine as well. In addition to the wine, they also have free water (VERY hard to come by in Italy) with a cheeky sign saying it's from the Trevi Fountain (only a few hundred feet away) and that it's the "viagra of Rome", which I thought was hilarious :D When my board was ready, I was thoroughly impressed. Not just the usual meats and cheeses you often see on charcuterie, it was a gorgeous arrangement of meats, cheeses, fruits, vegetables, jams, bread with spreads, and extra bread on the side. It was all DELICIOUS. In addition to the amazing boards and helpful staff, the vibe was really fun - it's very communal since the benches are all near each other in the small space, so you end up chatting with a lot of customers and comparing boards, each as beautiful as the next, but all completely different. And they were rocking 90's jams the whole time, which made me super happy. I was on a tour of Italy and ended up in Naples after Rome, and met some people looking for suggestions in Rome for their first visit. This place was my #1 recommendation!! It is not to be missed! read more

We were able to beat the lunch crowd and snag a table here a few days ago after visiting the Trevi fountain a few streets over. Tiny restaurant with tiny tables and huge boards full of deliciousness - meat, cheese, bread, assorted spreads, fruit & veg. Everything appears to be made in house, and they have various sizes of boards - a small, medium, and large, from what I could tell. We shared the medium for 2 people and it was tons of food. SO GOOD. They give you an extra pot of assorted bread to pile your meats and cheeses on, too. One of the types was some kind of salted white bread? No other way to describe it. I could have eaten 40 lbs of that alone. They choose what to put on your board for you, and they know what's up! Trust the masters. They have small and large bottles of wine, also. Bonus points for the friendly staff and the old school 50 Cent and Macklemore blaring over their speakers. Would return 100 times over. read more

This place was by far our favorite place to go in Rome. We had to wait the second time we went but it was worth every minute of it. The place is super tiny and intimate but creates this atmosphere that is both cozy and fun. Besides the great food and affordable wine this place had wonderful service . The service made everyone laugh and just have a great time like you were at home because they truly enjoyed working there too. I wish there were places like this in the US with spreads of cheeses and meats that gave every different texture and flavor in your mouth. A prefect place to have wine and food before dinner or even a big plate for your dinner. Go hungry and expect nothing but greatness! read more

Ok. According to yelp I deleted it. So I will do it again. This place is by the Trevi fountain. Fantastic. It is a meat shop therefore they cannot have a menu. Order the 20€ platter for 2 and a bottle of wine. Wine is cheaper than a coke and better! Comes with salamis mortadella cheese prosciutto fruit bruschetta bread. Fantastico! Delicious! Then you walk off happy and at an angle. read more

Delicious. A must try when visiting Rome. We were here 4 years ago and the pork sandwich is just as delicious as we remembered it to be.

Its a damn slaughter house... I LOVE IT! This place would be completely missed if you didn't have a line out the door or... yelp... Its literally a whole in the wall with make shift tables outside and very limited seating inside. I had to squeeze my oversize body against the wall like mission impossible the whole meal to fit... so worth it though. Ill be honest, I have no idea how the ordering went, I just pointed to a basic platter and they carved up the prosciutto meats and all the compliments that go with. If you are not too familiar with the local wine, they are of course happily to oblige you with a recommendation on what to order to compliment it. The platter was ridiculous in size and portion that was more then enough for the two of us. Each bite was rich and full of flavor. read more

What a hidden gem! My boyfriend (Roman) and I (American) were looking for a quick aperitivo and were quite nervous as we found ourselves int he middle of tourist central with expensive and questionable food but then....we found this place! We enjoyed the meat and cheese board so much we stayed and ordered sandwiches for dinner! The meat, cheese and fruits were sooo fresh and delicious. They have a bunch of wines that you can get by glass or bottle. The price was excellent when you see how much stuff they give you. Service was super quick and the staff were very nice and open to explaining anything and everything thing on the menu. Definitely will be back! read more

Oh my gosh! This was the BEST restaurant we ate at in Rome. It was soooo affordable and yummy. We didn't think we could bring our baby to this restaurant because it looked kind of small but they made it happen! We scooted our stroller and baby and the three of us successfully fit in the back. I recommend coming here around 1:30 p.m. after the lunch rush. It is located near the Trevi fountain so you can go to a lot of fun touristy sites and then stop here for some food. Their meat, veggie, and cheese boards were beyond generous. Man, I loved all the items on the board. It looked really pretty too. I thought the food was pretty filling for two. Man, for two people, it costed only 20 Euros. what a good deal. I would definitely come back here again!! read more

LOVE This place is tiny but awesome! I love Charcuterie and couldn't wait to try this place out. We asked for a large board for two and it was huge! So so good. Can't wait to go back. read more

LOVED this little hidden gem in Rome!! I was a little skeptical about this place since it's meats and cheeses on a board and sandwiches. My husband insisted on this place since it didn't look like a tourist trap and had a total local vibe. The guys that worked behind the counter were super friendly and attentive and so they suggested we tried a mix board of cheeses and aged meats. The board had a great variety and was paired with bread that had a spread that would compliment the meat or cheese that it was placed next to. I was soo impressed the first time that we decided to go back the next day! The guys there also are pretty good about pairing a wine glass with your selection. I saw that some people ordered a sandwich (a panini) but I liked how the boards gave you a wider variety of things to eat. I totally recommend this place!! We will be sure to come back when we return to Rome! read more

I found this place based on reviews while in Rome. It was a challenge to find, but worth the search. You order at the counter, deli style, whatever meat, cheese, etc. that you would like. We ordered a medium board for two of us and asked the woman behind the counter to just put whatever she thought would work together on the board. Inside seating is very limited and we were lucky enough to snag the only outside table. We sat there and she knocked on the window when our board was ready. It looked amazing and so big. Since this was our dinner we surprisingly had no problem finishing it off. It was inexpensive and delicious. We encouraged many sightseers passing by to come in and order their own meat and cheese board. read more

This place is an absolute gem buried in the Trastevere neighborhood. We spent three weeks in Italy and it's the only place we ate at multiple times. The boards are a piece of art and creative genius behind the counter was always so friendly and watching her put the boards together was entertainment in itself. Do yourself and your stomach a favor and don't miss this place while in Rome. read more

This place is amazing! I was surprised to hear that there are multiple, just because the experience feels so unique. There are a variety of meats that would be hard to find at many of the marketplaces, and the way that they prepare the platters is actually beautiful, definitely picture worthy! They have different pricing levels that are all extremely reasonable for the quality and quantity that you're getting, between 5 euros and 30 euros, but realistically two could split a board for 10 euros and be very full. There is no cover charge and no table service, and in a town where it costs two euros per person to sit at a table that's a pleasure to find. I have nothing but love for this place and I would recommend anyone to go, it is an incredible experience whether in Roma, Milan, or Firenze. During our trip to Italy we came here multiple times in multiple cities just because we loved it so much. read more

La Prosciutteria on Via della Panetteria in Centro Storico is a wine and prosciutto bar. Did you hear me right? This is not your typical wine bar that also has some bites on tap. It actually focuses on everything porky just as much as it is on the reds! Personalized meat platters of antipasti, cold cuts, and cheeses come in €5 small, €10 medium, €15 large, and the delectable arrangements vary, based on the proprietor's assessment of... you. Well, maybe not really, other factors are also involved, not the least of which is his creativity. Like many places here in Rome and everywhere in Italy, they make their own house wine, produzione vini del Chianti. It's very good! Try it with your meal or with your apps pre-dinner, even if you're not a drinker of reds, you'll thank me later! Simply put, our meat and cheese platter was out of this world. That's what eating scrumptiously and gregariously is all about! Yes, please envy me! Then eat vicariously... Pictures enclosed! Authentic Italian ambiance, with a modern European vibe. Take a lesson in Italian body language and gesticulation. English will only take you so far. Produzione vini del Chianti Vini * Panini * Merende read more

You like pig, wine, and rock n' roll? Welcome to La Prosciutteria Trevi. This place is run by some bad-ass ladies who build a mean board. Said board is made of olive wood and every inch of it is covered with Italian goodies: meat, cheese, grilled veggies, more meat, and bruschetta. The music is fun, the place is itty bitty, and the wine is gooood. Try the lambrusco. It's not sweet at all, but dry, fizzy, and berrylicious. It goes perfectly with the board. By the way, the one that we ordered was a medium and it was already over 2 feet long. Yeah, it comes in bigger sizes. Have fun ;-) I recommend going here when Roma is napping (i.e., not at lunchtime and not at dinnertime). read more

One of the best sandwich shop in Rome. I had the porchetta with mozzarella, arugula, sundried tomatoes, and onions. Huge sandwich that will definitely fill you! When in Rome, stop by here!!! read more

Cantina dei Papi - Porchetta with arugula, mozzarella, sundried tomato and onions - Wine Bars Near Me - Rome, RM

I went here my very first two days in Rome. For a cheap sandwich, this place is really good. They have all different types of meats, cheeses, spices, and even vegetables. I ordered a "create your own" sandwich with tapenade, mozzarella cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and artichokes. For €4 it was filling, but very salty. The bread had salt crystals on it and, combined with the tapenade and mozzarella, tasted like someone poured packets of salt into my mouth. That made it kind of dry. But hey, if you want something cheap and like meat, this is the place for you. read more

TL;DR - Charcuterie board If you're a fan of charcuterie, this place is the place to be. Place gets crowded but it is well worth the wait. Great platter of cured meats, cheese, and pickled garnishes. Get yourself a board + wine and you'll be satisfied with the price and quality of food. read more

When in Rome, do as the Romans do right? This is perfect place to get some apps and drinks before dinner. This small, local spot was the best place my friend and I went to throughout our time in Rome. They have a great selection of meats, cheeses and red/white wines you can choose from. From my experience, you can choose a small, medium or large charcuterie board of their choosing of what types of meat and cheeses on them. We were originally going to choose a small, but the guy at the counter told us to get a medium and I'm glad we did. No need to choose your meats and cheeses because they will do all that for you! Everything was so fresh and you could really tell they really care for the quality of their meats and cheeses. The board had different types of fruit, as well as different types of spreads on soft bread which really complemented everything. They also give you a small bowl of bread with your board. I ordered a glass of sauvignon blanc, and my friend ordered another white wine which was literally the best we've had in Rome so far. I think that says a lot about this place and how great this establishment is. Tip: -I know this sounds cliche coming from a tourist, but this place is NOT touristy at all! The surrounding area is full of tourists, but surprisingly this place wasn't as busy as I assumed, we waited only 10 mins! -They also have other dishes as well! (Pastas, sandwiches, etc) -Our seats were pretty cramped, but instead of waiting for a table, sit on the stools across from the counter! We had the cutest wine holders I've seen. They should make stuff like this in San Francisco! This will be the first place I'm heading to whenever I come back to Rome! read more

While in Rome, I was advised by a friend who was a local to come here. Located right by the Trevi Fountain. If you like cheese, cured meats and bread, you HAVE to come here. The place is small and has very limited seating, but for 20 euros you get a platter of meats/cheeses/bread that's enough to feed 2.

My favorite meal in Italy was right here. My boyfriend and I came with friends (based on their recommendation) midday for lunch. We were seated within minutes, but this tiny place had almost all their tables full. This place is very DIY since they do not have a restaurant license so they cannot "serve" us. Which is fine, we had no issues ordering at the counter and getting our own forks and knives. Their meat platters, which is a MUST TRY, comes in sizes and is per person. €5 for the small, €10 for the medium, and €15 for the large. The people working behind the counter speaks very limited English and basically told us that the meat platter differs from table to table and is a random mixture based on how they feel?? Not sure if anything was lost in translation there, but looking around, it does seem that they put a variety of combos per each platter. Definitely get the platter because you get a variety of meats. They were all very good but my favorite was the ham drizzled in sweet balsamic vinegar (I'm going to try to do this at home from now on!) They also serve sandwiches and pasta dishes. The house wine, ordered by our friends, is €2,50. Unfortunately I am not a wine drinker, but even I was in awe at the price per glass. The decor & atmosphere of this place is super cool (although cramped). It is very hipster and intimate - a great place to carry a convo with friends and enjoy authentic Italian cold cuts & snacks. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Rome. You will be missing out if you do not pay this place a visit! P.S. Their bathroom is also pretty cool in a weird grungy dungeon kind of way. read more

Holy mackerel was this place good! We tried coming here two weeks ago, but it was jam packed and we were starving. We made sure to beat the lunch rush this time, so we would get a table and a sandwich. We got there just before noon and barely beat the lunch rush. I had a tomato, mozzarella sandwich that was definitely the best sandwich I've ever had. The ingredients were fresh and abundant, with the perfect bread: filling ratio. My husband had the pork sandwich and he was in heaven. We are definitely glad we returned to enjoy a sandwich and this place will definitely become a must if we are ever in Rome again. read more

Each board comes with bread that is fresh baked. The cheese and meats were incredible to say the least. The wine selection is also marvelous. Don't miss out on this place!!!! read more
