What people say

"When I visit Rome I always go to this caffe as I believe they have one of the tastiest coffee in town. This time, after 9 years of my last visit, the coffee was still great but it was more than a tourist attraction rather than a cafe… The best part? One time I ordered a takeaway coffee and didn’t sit down. I paid and went to the barista to collect it. He asked if I wanted sugar and I said I’d add it myself. He handed me the coffee and when I asked for sugar he told me to leave a euro in a vase he had on the counter. It was a nice coffee but they could keep it for themselves."
