Do as a roman 
A short guide made by a Roman native

If you’re vegetarian like me here you can find also places that are plant based or offers vegetarian options 🌱

When in Rome…

I was born in Rome in ‘98 and since when I received my first mobile phone I started collecting places like restaurants, art galleries, and more

If you’re looking for a Roman experience by visiting something that isn’t on your “tourist map” read this one.

Let’s assume that you just arrive at Roma Termini station and you need something to eat. This restaurant offers both classic Roman dishes like carbonara, amatriciana, and tiramisu and also veggie options (thus if you’re vegan you can also enjoy a veggie carbonara or a veggie tiramisu) 

It’s not as expensive as it seems but it’s worth it I promise. Just remember to make a reservation at least 1-2 days before otherwise because the place is small 

If your hotel is near Lungotevere try Queen Bee. They open a couple of years ago and the staff of very qualified. The prices are in line with the competitor and…guess what the are also vegetarian options 🥳

Queen Bee restaurants 

If you have an account on the Fork you can make a reservation through the app 

Last but not least Buddy Veggie is near the Pantheon. This restaurant here is plant-based mostly and you can also make a reservation with the Fork 

Near Piazza Trilussa, more in the Trastevere district, you can find these two places where you can have an aperitif or an after dinner

You won’t get disappointed because the drinks are very good 

This amazing park have a soft spot in my heart because is were I spent a lot of beautiful moments with my friends during the adolescence.

In spring there are a lot of organized groups and tourists that visit this place by walking or renting bikes. 

I recommended to spent all day here, maybe in April were the temperature is not so hot and the dawn is romantic 💘

This is a little bistrot near the park where you can find vegetarian and veggie option. 

You can have breakfast, lunch, aperitif and pizza to take away and the price is in line on what competitor offers. 

Bistrot 3.9 is a bistro that opened last year in the Statuario area, accessible by bus or by taking a stroll from the back of the park*. 

You can find vegetarian options, but the owners will ensure you lack nothing in terms of hospitality and culinary needs. Nicola and Luca care deeply about their customers, and the atmosphere they provide is familial and welcoming.

*Inside the park, there is a sports club where the shuttles that accompany tourists for organized visits often stop. If you wish to go on foot, it's possible but the route is a bit lengthy; nevertheless, you can reach the Statuario neighborhood by heading in that direction

Last but not least, located in Statuario area near Bistrot 3.9, you can find Angelo Pezzella, specialized in typical Neapolitan pizzas.

I recommend making a reservation at first because it's always full, especially during the weekends
