Al Picchio, 40, Via del Lavatore

Located just one minute from the Trevi Fountain, Al Picchio is extremely good value for its location. Staff are friendly and there is a nice atmosphere, particularly in the cavern-style part of this eatery downstairs.

Pick bruschetta to start, risotto for your main, and you'll get a full meal for less than €10.

 

Open daily from 9.30am-3.30pm and from 6pm-10.30pm.

Bar Gelateria, Piazza di Trevi 90

 

It might call itself a 'gellateria', but you can get a pizza in this 'gellateria' for just €6. Its location is second to none -you can hear the bellowing water from the Trevi Fountain which is just around the corner as you eat. Marvellous!

 

Open daily from 7am-1am.

 

American Bar, Borgo Angelico

 

With many combo-deals such as 1 coke+1 pizza for €5, or 1 sandwich+1 coke for €4, you can do worse than a quick snack from American Bar. Handy if you are peckish before or after a trip to the Vatican Museum
or St Peter's Basilica.

 

Open daily from 10am-5pm.

 

La Caravella, 32 Via Degli Scipioni

 

 

 

If you fancy pushing the boat out a little and spending more than € 10
when eating out , La Caravella does combo-menus for €11. Choose from a wide variety of first and second courses, while potatoes and salad are included also. Drinks may hike up your bill a bit though.

 

Open daily from 11am-4pm and from
6pm-11pm, closed Thursdays.

Gelato! Gelato!

No matter where you are in the Eternal City, you are never far from a 'gelateria' (ice-cream bar). Choose from one scoop or two, small cones or large, and a wide variety of flavours such as nutella, banana, sorbetto (fruit sorbet), while for the more adventurous there are pistachio,
amoretto and chocolate liqueurs. Gelaterias open some time around 12 noon and stay open until midnight. A cone with two scoops shouldn't
cost more than €2.50.
