Giovanni Poggi is the friend in Rome you never knew you had

In 1991, Giovanni opened La Botticella to create the classic pub atmosphere he was unable to find anywhere else in the city.


Since then, it's taken on a legendary status as the go-to watering hole for both locals and visitors ready for a drink and a laugh after a long day of sightseeing.


With 8 Italian craft beers on tap, great cocktails, fantastic Italian wines, and hard-to-find liquors, La Botticella is the perfect spot for a pre-dinner drink or a post-dinner nightcap.

Located In The Heart Of Rome

"100 steps off Piazza Navona toward the Tiber River - part saloon, part museum, part wine bar, full-time people watching location with a chill atmosphere ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀


Best bar prices in that neighborhood of Rome, within steps of some of the best mid price restaurants that Gio is glad to recommend. Airline crew watering hold where you'll meet the same folks that likely brought you to Italy or will take you home.


Short answer: don't miss this place."
