Fodor's Expert Review Bukowski's Bar
Rome
This cozy spot outside the Vatican is furnished like a familiar living room with a giant leather sofa and armchairs, making it easy to meet the people sitting next to you. In addition to a strong cocktail and wine menu, the owners regularly host art, theater, and shopping events. Aperitivo (Italian happy hour) is served every evening, with a selection of drinks and the option of adding a small plate for €5.
