Sciascia Caffè

Early morning breakfast in Rome. Excellent service and food. I enjoyed a lovely cup of tea and coffee here.

After a morning well spent in the Vatican, we found ourselves wandering around Prati. I wanted to stop in for a quick caffe and some time off my feet. Yelp to the rescue! This is a great neighborhood cafe not infested with (many) tourists. The coffee was good and strong, striking the right balance of flavor. The server, prompt and pleasant, was also not intrusive or hovering, just chillin. Great spot and saved for my future Roma adventures.

We came for a quick snack in the afternoon after lunch. We got 2 orange juices (4,50) and 1 maritozzo (2,50). Very fresh and quick. Cute little place for a snack. The staff are really friendly

I initially found Sciascia Caffe while looking for a caffe that opened early in the mornings and within the area that I was staying in. My first time at the caffee I was able to enjoy early morning, empty and quiet streets in Roma beforehand. Upon entering Sciascia I immediately noticed how many locals frequent the caffee. I took a look around and grabbed a menu to place an order. You will want to place an order first at the register, take your receipt to the counter, and wait for the lovely staff to complete your order. After now visiting Sciascia many times I've noticed that the locals will quickly down their espresso and isn't in the caffee for more than 5-10 mins max. It is a great place for people watching and I always snag my little table in the corner each time. I've ordered the same two items each time and I have not been disappointed -- chocolate cappuccino with a ham and cheese croissant. I am not a fan of sandwiches so to my surprise I was thrilled when I fell in love with this simple yet oh so delicious sandwich! I always frequent Sciascia in the mornings so this is a nice breakfast substitute esp after being slightly toasted. I highly recommend this caffee as it makes me feel less like a tourist and more like an Italian.

Our favorite coffee shop while in Rome! We would come every morning for about 4 days. First off, we were confused by the process since it was our first time in Italy and had no idea how to order the coffee.

So, the trick is to either order at the register first or order at the bar and pay afterwards. Pastries were delicious, the coffee was amazing, and the service was the best!

Impeccable Italian coffee shoppe. Beautiful presentation, great expresso, pastries. Close to our hotel, great location. Going back again before we leave. Best I have had

Latte and cappuccino are fairly good. The desert drinks are more outstanding. I like the pretty atmosphere and the friendly service.

I haven't found a more Italian coffee counter in Rome more authentic, historic, and and "real" than this one.

They also have bite-sized bites of bombolonis, cassata, and other traditional Italian desserts.

Great coffee, full bar, and great bites - and at great prices. This place attracts locals and makes them sing!

Was the first place I visited in Rome and was a delicious place to stop! Cappuccino was amazing and the people who worked there were kind and helpful as I tried to make my order in Italian. Visited by lots of locals and tourists, it is a fun place to people watch and see what is going on.

The is definitely one of the better cafes we visited in Rome. Service here is excellent as we were quickly tended to.

Our group of 4 ordered prosciutto and cheese cornetto, pistachio cornetto, some sort of cream filled donut (I forget the name), and of course some cappuccinos and espressos. Out of everything, I would definitely come back for a prosciutto and cheese cornetto with a cup of cappuccino or espresso. Their cappuccino is excellent with a great foam cap and the espresso used was rich and smooth.

The inside was quite busy on a Monday morning with a lot of hustle and bustle but definitely settled down a bit later on. I'd come back again.
