Locale favoloso: è in assoluto il pub più bello in cui sono entrata. L’offerta è molto vasta: dalla colazione al... brunch, dall’aperitivo alla cena con piatti della cucina romana e internazionale. Il personale è cordiale, disponibile; l’atmosfera magica. L’ideale per rilassarsi, guardare una partita, sorseggiare una birra o un aperitivo all’aperto e godere della musica live. Eccellente (da provare le patatine dolci e i dessert!)read more

Oh, FO'B, a true gem! There isn't enough nice things to say about this place - basically, come here if you feel lost in... Roma and want to feel like family. It's locally owned, so you get that cosmopolitan pub experience coupled with down-to-earth Italian hospitality.
Need a delicious meal? Check. In the mood to make some friends? Check. How about a little dancing and singing to some live music? Check. Lost your phone charger? Check. Extended your trip and need to rent an AirBnb for the weekend? Check.
A repeat stop for me during my trip. Can't wait to come back!read more

Atmosfera irlandese in pieno centro a Roma. Dopo aver fatto un'abbondante e squisita colazione in stile irlandese, io e... mio fratello siamo andati via per visitare un po' la città, dimenticato vicino al tavolo un sacchetto con una guida turistica e qualche altro effetto personale. Ce ne siamo accorti solamente dopo un po', quando già ci trovavamo molto distanti dal pub. Ho subito chiamato e mi hanno riferito che avevano trovato il sacchetto e lo avevano conservato finché non ritornassi a prenderlo. In effetti a fine giornata siamo ritornati a prendere ciò che avevamo dimenticato, sacchetto che ci è stato consegnato con estrema gentilezza.
Esperienza positiva!read more
