Amazing, the Central Market is adjacent to the train station Roma Termini and has public bathrooms that are free to use with purchase at any store. The store will give you a receipt with QR code that you will scan to enter the bathrooms. The Bathrooms are on the first floor in the back, near the pizzeria. The bathrooms are VERY CLEAN and definitely worth even buying a bottle of water for. Highly recommend the Daniele Meini (La mozzarella e i formaggi) where they have amazing salads, pastas, and sandwiches. Got a mixed salad (insalata mista) with prosciutto and Burrata which was Buonissimo! It came with tomatoes, fresh olives, and a packet of olive oil to add to your liking. They also asked me if I wanted balsamic on top, which was an excellent touch. They also have a pecorino Romano cheese wheel that they will use to cook your pasta in. Don't just take my word for it, upon check out, our hotel staff highly recommended checking in a little early to our train so there's time to check out the Mercado Céntrale! read more

Good in terms of food market that is nestled in a train station but if looking for authentic flavors this place does not do justice. Quite a few vendors but a lot of them selling stuff that is not freshly made, we tried a few vendors but were not impressed. Pro tip - if you need to use the restroom, you need to buy something at the Mercato and use the barcode on the receipt to enter the restroom. read more

The Italian food hall aka Mercato Centrale is right next to Tremini train station. Perfect place to go to right before or after your trip. We had just finished a 4 hr train ride and were HUNGRY. The entrance is outside the station, but a quick walk. Once you are inside, it's overwhelmingly filled with food galore. Everywhere you look there's an option for desserts, coffee, alcohol, sandwiches, pasta, pizza, meats, American food, Japanese food, and many other Italian specialties. Some tough decisions to be made here. So depending on your appetite, have fun! The piadina wrap came with ham, cheese, greens, tomatoes, and truffle cream. Sounds basic but that truffle cream gave it an edge and the wrap was loaded. The meatballs were so so good! Like rich fatty goodness. The meatball itself was juicy and that tomato sauce was thick and beefy. The braised beef was tender and paired with the salted potatoes and salad it was a well balanced plate. This was our first food stop in Rome and it only got better in the days to come. Great welcome to Rome meal! read more

Arriving late in Rome at the Roma Termini station, I was glad that this food market was open only about a block away. There are a lot of different food stalls here. I ended up getting a Cacio E Pepe pasta from one of the stalls and I really enjoyed it. Also the drinks at the middle stall were excellent. read more

Pretty solid selection overall: pizza, pasta, vegan, Asian, meat lover options, bakery, wine, and desserts. I ended up choosing the truffle store, which serves pasta and also sells products you can take home(truffle oil etc). There were way more truffles than I expected! The staff in the market also go around to take drink orders. read more

Better and more unique than your typical airport fast food - but you are still so close to getting the "real thing" at a traditional restaurant. My crew tried several things and left the food court a bit unsatisfied. Walk a few more blocks! read more

Trapizino was good! I picked not a great flavor of anchovy and buratta. The texture was not my favorite. My husbands meatball was a bit better with the soft/crunchy dynamic. Overall the mercato was BUSY and what you would expect from a train station. read more

In all honesty, I think this place is just ok but I felt weird about giving it three stars because one of the stalls we visited was actually great. We went to the Mercato Centrale in Bologna and had a lovely experience so I expected that same theme to continue, but I was wrong. Walking in, there was a lot of potential. There are a lot of stalls and endless things to choose from. We were only in Rome for two days, so I wanted to try some of the famous Roma items, like suppli and artichokes. The first place I went to had both roasted and steamed artichokes. I got one of each and appreciated that the person working warmed them up. The steamed was to die for delicious! She also convinced me to try a potato sandwich thing that wasn't warmed up. It was not good. It tasted like it would have been better warmed up. The second place I tried was the suppli place, which also serves other fried items. Again, I can see the potential but cold fried items are just gross. They should re warm them. Also, the service was bad here. I ordered in Italian and the person just stared at me, I actually wondered if I spoke English on accident. Then another person comes up and asks me to speak English please because the other person only speaks Italian. What? This same person was also more interested in flirting with the guy at the stall next door so there's that. The last place we tried was the "American" place (yes, my husband needed a hot chicken sandwich in Rome, even though I was avoiding all the Asian food because we can get that at home) and it was amazing. The food was good and the service was even better. read more

We really wanted to try this place. There was a charm to being exposed to different food vendors in Italy. Came walking all the way from the Trevi fountain area. 30 miles about. You can do it it was a treck. But be careful we did not know but apparently this is a rough neighborhood. read more

We came here around 1-2pm after the lunch rush. There's a ton of food to check out so you'll probably come here more than once. The food was pretty good. The best thing I had there so far is the pizza cone. That was delicious. The gelato is also good. Some of the reviews say there's bonci pizza but I don't think it's there anymore. Just a pizza that looks like bonci. I didn't have it but it looks good as well. read more

CONVENIENT food market at Roma Termini. Lots of different options, so your family members/group members can choose whatever, from steak to Japanese foods! Prices vary greatly from 3.50 euros to over 20 euros. Some of the food counters offered samples, which I enjoyed. The crunchy fried chicken breasts (forgot the picture) were so tasty (13 euros including lettuce salad & roasted potatoes). We got 3 different spulli's (=crochettes), for 3.50 euros each, of which were delicious! My delicious medium rare sirloin salad (with salad & 2 pieces of bread) was 20 euros. The staff were pretty nice, service was pretty quick. This place is much nicer, cleaner, & less chaotic than the one in Florence. read more

When we arrived at Roma Termini, we were looking for a place to eat with all our luggage and found out the Mercato Centrale was so close by. There were countless vendors to order food or coffee from. I ordered a cappuccino and a croissant. The croissant was amazing! And the cappuccino was delicious and strong, which I desperately needed. They had plenty of sandwiches, burgers, ramen and more. Great place to eat at for everyone in your group! read more

This Italian pizza pocket was hands down one of my top 5 favorite foods in Rome. Went back for a second time, and would've gone for a third if we had the time! The focaccia was soft, the anchovies were salty, and the stracciatella was creamy- the perfect combo. The market was super fun- tons of great food options, cute ambiance, and people were super friendly! Absolute must try read more

This is such a fun place to scope out all kinds of food! I am always a fan of a fancy food court. This place has all kinds of options, but my husband and I settled on sandwiches from the pizza place. Both were good, but the focaccia sandwich was delicious! They were a little pricey, but you can take them to go and get drinks cheaper elsewhere. read more

Mercato Centrale - Sandwiches - Patisserie/Cake Shop Near Me - Rome, RM

In general I love food halls like this one. But the quality of the food here was not the best. I think it may depend on the vendor. If I had to come again, I wouldn't go to the vendors that have food already prepared on display. I went to one of the stalls serving sandwiches and trays of pasta. I ordered the porchetta sandwich and the eggplant parmesan. As I said, it didn't taste fresh. It was similar to what you might buy from a grocery store deli (in the US) or a hospital cafeteria. Two other family members ordered from a different vendor and had the same unfortunate experience. Price-wise, it also doesn't seem that much cheaper than traditional restaurants in the area. read more

Amazing food court at the termini with so many options a must go while waiting for your next destination from Rome! My best experience was at trapezzini which was on the bucket list for a while. Pizza meets sandwich and creates this delicious easily hand held delicacy full of meat and flavors. We tried the chicken cacciatore and a pork one, also tried suppli at a place which was huge but ok read more

There is a wine bar and delicious pasta, pizza, pasteries, salads, gelato, burgers, fresh juices, "street food", and more.

Ok, first of all this food court set up at the train station is every carb lover's dream!! There are soo many options here, and not just strictly Italian food. I even saw there's ramen, and other Asian foods. Plus, there is a full bar where servers will walk around to check if you'd like to order any alcoholic beverages. How clever are they?? Anywho, I got the cacio de pepe--a simple pasta dish with very minimal ingredients but ohhh soo delicious! I also got a chance to watch the chef make it in front of me. Again, this is a food court so please don't expect fancy schmancy service but this is as good as it gets (especially for the price)! Grazie! read more

Market Central is the equivalent translation of Mercato Centrale and it suits the meaning. This market has a grand variety of Italian specialties done well, such as fried asparagus (yum must get!), espresso, local Roman pasta - Cacio e Pepe, fresh pasta, grilled meat, pizzas, gelato, wine pours and etc.! Convenient spot for people who are getting on or off to the main terminal, so it suits the market name! The shops take credit cards. Communal seating with music playing and there's restaurants upstairs. read more

Your one stop shop for all your favorite Italian food and desserts (plus drinks)!!!!! Located conveniently inside Roma Termini (the main train station in Rome) along with tons of other services that one might need while travel here such as car rental, souvenir shops, etc... This wasn't our first choice for our first dinner in Italy. Fortunately, we both passed out for a good few hours after arriving in Rome, by the time we woke up, it was already early evening, tired, hungry, we didn't feel like looking to go anywhere far, plus, our bnb host recommended this place. Just less than 10minutes walk from where we were at, it wasn't a hard decision to make. I'm not too fond of "food court", but extremely glad we came here. Mercato Centrale is definitely food court on steroid with more than a dashing look, casual, loud (the final World Cup game was going on that night I believe), but intimate regardless. With so many choices to choose from, you'd want to do a full walk through to check out all they have to offer before making the decision of what to get. We had one of the most delicious pizza from here, which I can't remember the name of the shop, but it's located toward the end, across from the center bar. Everything is order to made fresh here, this include pizza and pasta. The desserts and pizza were delizioso! We ordered 2 different pasta, one was something with capers I believe. The other was pasta carbonara with shaved fresh black truffle. Neither one made a memorable impression on us. Except they were a bit pricey, around $20/ea, more or less. The black truffle one was kinda worth it tho. If you're staying nearby or have some time to spare at this train station, I highly recommend checking out this place. The food is usually done quickly. However, depends on the day and time, it might take a little time to find some empty table and chairs. read more

This little mercato, though a little crowded, offers everything you need to get a good meal in before you head off to wherever you're going. From sandwiches to pizza, and even sushi. Although, I doubt you'd get sushi here. We tried a slice from Bonci, which does different flavors of square slices. Most slices are around 3 €.I had been craving potato pizza, so I got a slice of the beef and potato. The flavors were good, but the potato slices didn't adhere to the pizza very nicely. For the most part, I was happy with the value of the pizza and happy to find some square slices. read more

Located in the Roma Termini station the Mercato features a collection of food stands offering a diverse selection of foods. After a day of walking through Rome we decided to try it out and pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food. We ordered some of the alici frite (fried anchovies), some Cartoccio Pesce Fritto (fried cod) from Lluca Saladino's la cucina di mare; a slice of eggplant pizza and focaccia from Gabriele Bonci's il pane e i dolci and a cannoli from Carmelo Pannocchietti's le specialita Siciliane. Not only was the food delicious, the focaccia was the best we had ever had. There is bar seating and regular seating giving you a choice in a really busy environment. read more

Housing some of Rome's biggest names in Food, and only a half-hour from FCO by train, it is merely 60-minutes after landing that guests visiting The Eternal City can be eating Charcuterie, Cheese, Pizza and Pastries at Mercato Centrale Roma. Building on the success of a similar project in Florence, Mercato Centrale opened in October 2016, and occupying a former afterhours meeting place for railway workers the two-storied section of Stazione Termini Roma is nothing short of a dining destination from 08h00 until 23h59 daily. Found at via Giolitti 36, and easily accessible from any part of town by way of Metro or bus, it is immediately upon entry that Mercato Centrale's quality becomes evident, balls of fresh Mozzarella visible on one side while Baked Goods from Bochi occupy the left. Crowded but spacious, a variety of seating options ranging from counters to tables found adjacent various booths, guests in need of a drink merely need flag down a waitress, everything from Cocktails to DOP Wine available to compliment dishes ranging from Beppe Giovale's well-sourced Charcuterie to Ramen by Akira Yoshida. A source of fresh Produce to locals, but equally home to a Restaurant from Oliver Glowig, it is strongly recommended that first-timers take at least one lap before making decisions, though those looking to save time should consider starting out at "La Pizza" by Pier Daniele Seu as lines grow long for made-to-order Pies during peak times. With a Pizza from the man behind Seu Pizza Illuminati waiting to be stretched and fired, a walk across the dining area to Il Trapizzino should be the next step for many, the invention of Stefano Callegari essentially a hemisected slice of Focaccia stuffed till overflowing with classic Roman recipes such as tender Chicken Cacciatore or breaded Eggplant Parm. Returning to La Pizza after ten minutes, a pair of wood-fired ovens and staff of five working non-stop, suffice it to say that Seu's Amatriciana is nothing short of a steal at €10, the fluffy cornicione evidence of lengthy fermentation with good blistering while toppings of San Marzano Tomatoes, Black Pepper and Pork Cheek nicely replicate one of Rome's most well-known Pastas. Left to decide between sweet and savory to finish, and eventually deciding on the latter based on this day's agenda, fans of fried Food should not overlook Martino Bellincampi, the "explorer" of this ancient and universal cooking style using Peanut Oil to produce everything from Fish and Chips to creamy Cacio e Pepe Suppli and surprisingly elegant Pasta Fritta Amatriciana. read more

This place is my jam when I'm in Rome . It can be busy , loud , crowded and chaotic but it's the place to be for good food, fast . Lots of Italian food options but also some American classics : hamburger , hotdog, fries , grilled meats . They offer everything from the most simple food like sandwiches and pizza to fancy truffle dishes. Most important , it's fast, convenient, good portion sizes , reasonably priced and there's no cover charge like you find in most Italian restaurants. There are also free toilets and they offer table service (servers to bring drinks and clean off table ). After your meal , try a dessert called Profiteroles at the food stand connected to the middle bar . It's in a dessert case with an array of other delectable sweets. It will rock your world! I had it three times during my most recent Rome stay. FYI, Mercato Centrale is open until midnight! It's attached to the Termini train station . read more

We had one last dinner in Rome before heading to the airport and I'm so glad we spent it here! Being right next to the train station, it is incredibly convenient to get a good meal without going too far when you're on the go, especially with luggage. I got a plate of absolutely delicious orecchiette from la pasta fresca, a yummy and fun trapizzino from la trapizzino, and some gelato from il gelato. A little bit of everything here! Also loved the use of sustainable paper plates and utensils. read more

My hostel told me about this place during my first night but I didn't realize it was actually a fancier food court. I thought it was some hole in the wall sketchy food hall at the train station initially so I skipped it and went to the worst tourist trap pizza place. Later, I dropped by right before my train to the airport on my last day since it's in the same station. I ordered pepper pasta from the pasta place, which was good but not fabulous. Likes - lots of options - "fast" food - takes credit cards - the pasta was cooked fresh but got cold fast Dislikes - crowded - average quality and taste - atleast my cacio e Overall: Worth checking out but not a must go place! read more

**BEWARE IF YOU HAVE A U.S. WHITE CDC CARD** They no longer allow you to sit in and eat at the mercato centrale without a green pass. The US white cdc card is no longer sufficient here. Only option is to take away, which is a bummer since the food served there is a lot better fresh and right away. Sad update and disappointing. Really wanted to sit, enjoy food, enjoy a wine or beer, and people watch in this vibrant space. Kind of discriminatory towards foreigners even if fully vaccinated. The person checking for green passes in the front even called the manager of the place and he confirmed that they got new direction to enforce this.. whack. read more

My eyes were bugging out as I walked thru this gastronomic beauty. Fresh pizza was being rolled to my left, fresh desserts were being dressed to me right, and I spied fresh seafood within the displays. My one regret was I didn't eat here sooner and my hotel was walking distance to this hub. I only ate here on my last day. Bummer. I would have ate here every single day. There is absolutely something for everyone here and the choices are endless! The waiters are attentive and super nice. I had the: Beef tripe smothered inside fresh bread (located on the right hand side all the way in the back) Fried whole artichoke Fresh carrot,orange,lemon juice Fresh ravioli with cheese filling Mandarin gelato I wish I had more compartments in my stomach to savor all the other dishes I was eyeing.

Il Ramen Vegans and vegetarians take heart. You have vegan ramen available at Il Rsmen!

I'd go for a little less salt - but that's me. You're not going to fill up on this, but not a bad thing with so many other tempting items all around. For me, great comfort food. Who doesn't love ramen. And if you do, while it won't be the best ever, it surely makes the cut. Also, not a bad deal at €9, considering you're at the Terminal. read more

This market gem was found by chance near the central train station , which in itself is a bit usual. It is a concept with multiple fresh restaurant counters, pizza, pasta, cheese, beer, wine, bakery, sushi, fresh fish and even more upstairs. Everything is fresh looking and not run down or dirty looking. Actually looks quite new. Came in a Tuesday evening and it was packed with locals. Hard to get a table. Everyone was very helpful and spoke English. Waiters also walk around and can take your drink orders. Excellent place to hang out and eat and drink.
