APERITIVIO Bars
IN ROME

HERE’S WHAT
YOU NEED TO KNOW...

  • You can expect to be served nuts, crisps or olives whenever you order an alcoholic drink.
  • But if you want the full aperitivo experience complete with food, make sure you say so when you order. So, you could say “Un Aperol Spritz come aperitivo”. But if you literally just want to drink an Aperol Spritz and don’t fancy anything to eat with it, you could always say “senza aperitivo” to avoid any misunderstandings.
  • If a bar or restaurant is serving aperitivo, you’ll usually only pay a few euros extra for the drink. But the food will be included for that price. Let’s say an Aperol Spritz costs EUR 7.00. You might pay something like EUR 10.00 for aperitivo but you’ll be getting plenty to eat for that extra money.
  • Lots of bars and restaurants open up their aperitivo buffet between 6.00 p.m and 8.00 p.m.
  • As the locals tend to eat their evening meals pretty late in the evening, aperitivo isn’t always an early affair. If you’re worried about finding somewhere to eat, it’s best to get your orders in early.
