( Via del Pigneto 18; Circonvallazione Casilina) Forget the other bars that
line Pigneto's main pedestrianised drag, with their scattered outside tables and styled interiors. This is where the
locals head. This traditional 'wine and oil' shop has sold cheap beer and wine for over 70 years, though not so
much oil these days. It's outside seating only.

Via Casilina Vecchia 42;
7pm-2am Tue-Thu, to 4.30am Fri-Sun; Ponte Casilino) Circolo is one of Rome's best nights out, serving
up a fine menu of fun: there's Screamadelica, with Italy's alternative music oracle Fabio Luzzietti. Regular gigs
feature international alternative stars: think the Ravenettes to Patti Smith. The large garden area is ideal for
chilling out. Sunday is vintage market day.
Forte Fanfulla
(

; Via Fanfulla da Lodi 5; Circonvallazione Casilina) This cultural associ-
ation is all vintage chic and left-leaning punters. There are regular live indie, jazz, reggae and rock gigs, plus vin-
tage sales, jam sessions, art-house films, documentaries and poetry readings.

Beautiful exotic jewellery that is the work of the artistic partnership of Roberta Paolucci and Paolo Giacomelli.
