Breakfast
Forno Monteforte on Via del Pellegrino has built a strong local and visitor following for its maritozzo — the classic Roman cream-filled bun — alongside dependably good cappuccino, with reviewers frequently calling it one of the best bakeries in the city. A moderate line at the entrance is standard rather than exceptional, a sign of consistent popularity rather than a passing trend. Its solidly high culture and local scores alongside a good must-see score reflect genuine standing as a beloved Roman institution rather than a purely tourist-driven spot. It's an excellent, affordable stop for a classic Roman breakfast.

What people say
"Very good breakfast. We had our accommodation close, and we loved it so much that we always took breakfast here. Maritozzo was perfect, and very good capuccino. Pastries also very good. Nice breakfast vibe, always full of people but that's understandable since it's so good."
