Still missing your scrambled eggs for breakfast? Still craving your fav croissant au beurre? Stay with me for a moment as I tell you about this pastry shop, which is definitely not just “another one!” Pasticceria Regoli is the pastry shop that will probably become your North Star whenever you try other sweets in Rome or, who knows, maybe in the whole world.

Traditional Roman croissant or a more sophisticated bakery – it doesn’t matter. You will fall in love with the many sweets Pasticceria Regoli tempts you with. But that’s not all.

If you’re a novice or it’s your first time at Pasticceria Regoli, you must try their flagship: the famous maritozzo. A sweet, fluffy sandwich, generous with its whipped cream which gets on your face when you bite it… A triumph of the senses. Enjoy it with a coffee at the bar of the pasticceria or a cappuccino and feel the world stop turning for a second. The big version is a real challenge even for sweet tooths, while the small one might leave you enough space for lunch.

The patisserie gets crowded from 9 to 11 AM. This traditional bakery is the real deal and has been open in Rome for many generations, yet still feeding the neighborhood of Esquilino with its deliciousness. As you enter the Pasticceria Regoli, have a look at all the photos of awards or newspaper clippings they have been mentioned in. A nice, fun little museum of memory.
