A coffee institution and legendary café with the best coffee in Rome. Bring their yellow 'mocca' and a bag of freshly roasted coffee beans home with you (they make for the perfect gift).
Open since 1938 and still one of the most loved addresses in the city, Sant'Eustachio makes its espresso to a recipe that has never been shared – slow-roasted over wood, the machines hidden behind aluminium panels so no one can spot what they actually do.
