Those who are from Rome surely know “Teatro e Cioccolata,” a very special place located at Vicolo del Cinque, 11A, in Trastevere. It is a bookstore and bar that combines a passion for books with the tasting of chocolate and special drinks, offering a unique and original experience.
Being a particular bookstore, it is not open during the day, but in the evening from 8 pm to 2 am. Hours may vary depending on the seasons and holidays. The place is very nice with a selection of texts to browse or buy. Presentations are also held inside.
It is a nice place for those who want to have a fun time with friends. But also for chocolate lovers: specialty handmade chocolates are offered, including famous shots served in chocolate cups with whipped cream, which are very popular and have become something of a local tradition.
There are many drinks on the menu, including Sveltina (shot of chocolate, coffee liqueur and cocoa), Botterella (shot of chocolate, Baileys and chocolate liqueur), Amplesso (shot of chocolate, rum and chocolate liqueur), Spagnoletta (shot of chocolate, Baileys and mint), Succhiotto (shot of chocolate, coconut liqueur and chocolate liqueur), Limoniamo (shot of chocolate, fresh lemon chill and chocolate liqueur), Multi orgasm (with Baileys, Vodka and coffee liqueur).
Prices of chocolate shots with liqueurs are moderate, generally around 3.50 euros per serving.
The place is popular for its unique atmosphere and unusual combination of books and chocolate. Frequented by both residents and tourists, it is considered a landmark for those seeking a different experience in the heart of Trastevere.
Teatro e Cioccolata is an ideal evening venue for those who want to combine culture, sweetness and sociability in a cozy and original setting, open until late at night. We also recommend it as a destination to celebrate a bachelorette party in the capital.
