To Rome with Love: Woody Allen's Rome and where to eat
The Rome of To Rome with Love, Woody Allen's comedy set in the capital: Piazza Navona, Trastevere and the alleys of the centre. An itinerary through the film's places and where to stop and eat.
With To Rome with Love (2012), Woody Allen wrote his love letter to Rome, after Paris and Barcelona. An ensemble film that moves between squares, alleys and terraces of the capital, showing the city at its sunniest and most ironic. Here is an itinerary through the film’s Rome and where to stop for a bite.
The Rome of the film
To Rome with Love stages a postcard Rome: Piazza Navona, the streets of the historic centre, Trastevere and terraces with a view. It is not a single-location film but a mosaic of the city — perfect for a stroll through the capital’s most beautiful spots.
Where to eat in the Rome of the film
The beating heart of Woody Allen’s Rome is the Piazza Navona area. For a break in the heart of the scene, a coffee or an aperitivo at the Caffè di Piazza Navona is the ideal stop, between Bernini’s fountains and the atmosphere of the historic centre.
Rome is the city with the most food locations on our site: from historic trattorias to elegant cafés. Discover them all on the Rome page.
What to taste
The Rome of To Rome with Love is one of outdoor tables: treat yourself to a gelato in the square, a supplì, and in the evening authentic Roman cuisine — cacio e pepe, carbonara, artichokes. The best way to live the capital like in the film.
You will find the connected stops on the To Rome with Love page.
In short
To Rome with Love is an invitation to lose yourself among the capital’s squares. Start from Piazza Navona and let Woody Allen’s sunny, ironic Rome guide you.
