Bramante designed this cloister in 1504. Someone had the inspired idea of putting a café in it. The result is one of the most atmospheric places in Rome to have a glass of wine. Surrounded by Renaissance arcades, contemporary art, and the particular silence of a courtyard that has stood for five centuries.

Our take

Come on a weekday morning when it's quiet. Order a cappuccino, sit in the cloister, and forget what century you're in.
