"Manu forever!!!"

We’ve been coming to this charming bar for four years, and it never disappoints! While prices can feel a bit sensitive to inflation and the drinks are on the lighter side, the quality is exceptional—especially the gin and tonic on tap. A bit more beer variety might be nice, even if it’s not a brewery, but the experience is still top-notch. Shoutout to Manu, Matteo, and the new team—they make every visit memorable. We’ll definitely be back!

"Unusual & Interesting Cocktails"

This solid silver-tier cocktail bar offers an intriguing selection of unique and delicious cocktails, complemented by a self-service snack buffet. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, though it can get quite busy at times, which may slow down table service. Overall, it’s a stylish spot for good drinks and light bites.

"A good aperitif"

This is a very nice place with excellent service and a friendly staff that makes you feel welcome. The vegetarian buffet is tasty, though a few dishes can be a bit light, but overall it’s satisfying. Prices are fair, making it a great spot to enjoy a relaxed meal.

"Aperitif in Trastevere"

This bar is often crowded and can feel a bit overrated. The interior is nicer than the exterior, offering a more inviting atmosphere once inside. Cocktails are average, but its convenient location on the way to the river makes it an easy stop if you’re passing by.

"Super after dinner cocktail"

I’ve been coming here regularly since it opened, and it’s always a welcoming place. While there can be a short wait at times, the staff is consistently kind and attentive. The cocktails are simply fantastic—definitely worth the visit!

"Just ok"

We stopped by for a drink and the aperitivo buffet, but the place quickly got busy—even shortly after opening—and we snagged one of the last tables. The service felt rushed, as if the staff were trying to turn over as many guests as possible. I didn’t enjoy my drink, though my husband did, and the food was acceptable. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re mainly looking for a budget-friendly meal; there are definitely better options elsewhere.

"Quirky"

This quirky bar is a hit with both locals and tourists. The service is generally friendly, though it can be a bit slow at times due to limited staff on the floor. The drinks are excellent, offering a unique twist while still covering the classics, along with beer and wine options. It’s a completely different experience from the usual spots—definitely a cool place and a must-check-out for anyone looking for something memorable.

"Overrated"

This spot works well for an aperitif or happy hour, with good drinks and an included buffet that makes it worthwhile. The buffet is vegetarian-friendly but has options for everyone. Service, however, is poor, and it feels like tourists may be treated differently. Overall, the drinks and buffet shine, but the service leaves room for improvement.

"Very good drinks, although a little pricey."

The drinks here are aromatic, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared, with perfectly fitted ice that enhances the experience. While the quality is excellent, the prices feel a bit on the high side.

"First-class drinks and cool service"

I don’t usually rate bars on Tripadvisor, but I’ll make an exception for this one. While the decor is a bit run-down, the music can be annoying, and the crowd tends to be young, the drinks are truly excellent and unpretentious. The standout, though, is the service—friendly, cool staff who make the experience enjoyable.

Freni e Frizioni

A lively aperitivo bar in Trastevere offering creative cocktails and generous buffet-style snacks. It’s a favorite for sunset drinks and social evenings.
