I really want to like this relatively new gastro-pub on Viale Trastevere in Rome. They have an extremely interesting selection of craft beers on tap which change regularly. The décor is slightly cheesy but the fake girders and railway trappings actually make for a pretty cosy (theme) pub.
I went recently for a bite to eat and was a little bit disappointed by the menu. My companion's chicken salad was tiny. Their sandwiches are really expensive.
The best value dining option seems to be the aperitivo - for a couple of euros extra, early evening, you can enjoy a plate of bruschette with your beer, which works out as a very reasonable snack.
It gets really busy in the evening so they've organised staff to take care of table service, even if you're just ordering beers. Fairly, this doesn't make the drinks any more expensive. However, the staff are pretty keen to snatch up your glasses as soon as you've finished and there's a little sense of pressure. The first time I went, I was brought the bill without asking for it. I will be back as the beer is great, but a couple of other aspects could be improved. read more
