Ciampini

I’m a bit torn about the gelato here. I tried the sour cherry but didn’t quite like it enough to get, and then I just decided that I’ll get coffee and strawberry. The coffee, which I had first, was very very good. The coffee flavor is so roasty and strong, it was delicious. It was also quite creamy and thick. The strawberry wasn’t as good; it tasted borderline artificial. The sour cherry had actual pieces of cherry in it, but it wasn’t sour and for whatever reason the cherry flavor wasn’t really there. This gelato place really gets a solid 3.5 stars; pricing is about the same as everywhere else at € 2.50 for a small. I’m giving it 3 stars because I don’t think I’ll be back and I would recommend other gelato places, but the coffee gelato was delicious!

Loved their Gelato, very high quality and not watered down. We were recommended here by some locals. Looks a little fancier than the other gelato places that we visited in Roma. I think they also serve lunch, we had dinner and drinks here as well and that was pretty good too.

Very good, and substantial selection. Different fare from the typical Italian restaurant.

First meal ever in Rome and it was delicious. The mozzarella and prosciutto was fresh and yummy, especially enhanced by the table olive oil. Pasta all Norma had a wonderful flavor that Was punctuated by fresh mint. What a nice surprise. Once you get the attention of the staff they are lovely.

Nice café in a touristy Piazza San Lorenzo. They serve gelato in the back and the consistency is just as silky and creamy as Gelateria Vice, which is another popular choice for gelato. I prefer Ciampini gelato better to Giolitti, which is overhyped. If you’re willing to travel outside centro, Fatamorgana, La Romana and gelateria Vice are the favorites followed by Teatro near Piazza Navona.
I was told to try the Marron Glacé, which was ok, not my flavor, but the Nocciola (Hazelnut) didn’t disappoint. The texture of their gelato is the key and it’s light creamy not too dense, so pick any flavor you like.

The gelato there is amazing! The place is also steps from the piazza where the pantheon is located. Best time to go is in the afternoon, grab some gelato, go sit on one of the steps in the piazza, and marvel at the pantheon (an amazing feat in human engineering and architecture).

MMMMM CHE BUON GELATO!
I’ve been coming here for 4 years (used to come here embarrassingly often as I worked in the vicinity– gelato is an acceptable lunch, right?). I’ve never sat down always just had a gelato on the go– prices are steep– but the product is so damn good. There’s a small selection of flavors (compared to a super store like La Palma) but they are all done well. My favorites are cocco, frutti di bosco, yogurt, pistacchio.
Conveniently located a stone’s throw from Via del Corso, the Ara Pacis, Pantheon. I can arrive at all of these places while still eating my gelato.

We took an evening stroll around the Spanish Steps and happened upon this place for a glass of wine. We ended up having the amazing Pasta Cici e pepe, pizza margarita and café lattes. They gave us the most amazing crème puffs as a treat. A full meatless meal and we were happy as clams. The staff was so accommodating and friendly. This is our new must visit spot in Rome.

Had a delicious stracciatella and mango ice cream in a cone! Best icecream I’ve ever had — super creamy and no little annoying bits of ice. Shame we only sound this gem on the last day

we came here in a daze when we first arrived to rome. it’s a good place to people watch and have some drinks and food. we ordered a pizza margherita to share, and it was fine, but i don’t think you could really go wrong w/​any pizza in italy.

I have to start this out with the price. It’s quite high.
I had the address from a CNN article. Stopped by mainly to sit down for a while (the mrs was complaining about her feet or something) and eat something.
Ice cream was our first idea, I went inside to look at pastries and savory snacks, but found them unattractive, so ice cream it was.
Some of the options on the menu were unavailable, so we had to take what was available. We particularly liked the marron glacé’ ice cream, really full of marron glacé’ pieces. Other flavors good, but not excellent.
Most importantly — Price is high, as might be expected to sit in a nice piazza right in the center of Rome (9.50 Euro for a cup with 3 flavors). They could at least offer a glass of ice water, as it was customary in Italy some years ago with ice cream.

Ok, so lets get this out of the way — its between the parliament and the Louis Vuitton store — aint gonna be cheap. Its primo people watching location. I mean it. Just kick back with gelato or coffee and the place is a virtual catwalk !
Oh and did I say the gelato was good?

Eines der schönsten und teuersten Cafehäuser von Rom. An dieser Piazza gehen hauptsächlich die Gäste ein und aus bei denen Geld nicht wirklich eine große Rolle spielt. Rundum die bekanntesten Designer-​Edelboutiquen Europas. Cappuccino 5,20 EUR Unbedeutende Vinos 0,1L ab 7,80 EUR. Hier hat sich der Gastropreis an den Boutiquen angepasst. Leider sind die Toiletten mit deutlich zu wenig an der Zahl unterirdisch schlecht und stehen in keinster Weise im Verhältnis.

Ciampini is a wonderful café’, with a real Italian spirit to it. Its location is very central, in the middle of a beautiful piazza with lots of designer shops to check out. Their gelato, ice cream, is one of the best I’ve ever had, delicious sandwiches and coffer that only Italian can make! worth a visit.

On recommendation of our Bed and Breakfast, we popped in here to refuel on our first day in Rome.
First had a fresh juice and café espresso, with a pizza romana consumed in the roman style standing at the counter. Very tasty. You can sit outside on the tables in the piazza if you prefer.
We then had a triple flavour cone for 3.50 euro. Lemone was stunning, as was Nocciela Marron Glacé was good, but a bit sweet.
One of the better gelateria in Rome.

Great lunch place in a very centrally located piazza where you can find the eponymous church, as well as posh shops — Bottega Veneta, Teichner, Profumeria Materozzoli, Nespresso, Pomellato and Louis Vuitton. Sandwiches are better than most you find in the center. Ciampini also serves some of the best ice cream in the neighborhood. However, be forewarned that you may end up paying a small fortune because of the location. The smallest serving of ice cream (not the mini-​cones) costs 2.50 euros! Sandwiches are a bit more reasonable at around 3.50 euros. You should be able to buy a sandwich, small bottle of water and espresso for just over 5 euros.

Hier gibt es Caffè, Gelato, Tramezzini, Politiker auf dem Weg ins Parlament, feine Senioras in Shoppingpausen und altehrwürdige Kellner, die genau wissen, warum seit über 40 Jahren dort arbeiten. Man braucht nicht viel Geld, es ist alles relativ günstig, aber man braucht viel Zeit. Ich könnte die Leute dort stundenlang beobachten.
