Art Cafe Rome

Art Cafe sits at Viale del Galoppatoio 33. It is a fifteen-minute walk from the Villa Borghese Gardens and a twenty-minute walk from the Spanish Steps. The room runs smart and elegant, focusing on a rotation of house, dance, and chart hits.

Art Cafe feels detached from the traditional rhythm of the city center, which is exactly why the local crowd chooses it over the tourist-heavy spots near the monuments. While the surrounding area holds the history of the Borghese Gallery, this spot ignores the stillness of the gardens for a louder, high-energy environment. It is the better pick if you want to avoid a standard Roman bistro, as the Mediterranean menu takes a backseat to the dance floor once the night turns.
