Forno Campo De' Fiori

Tucked away behind the bustling flower vendors of one of Rome’s most iconic squares, Forno Campo De’ Fiori is the kind of place that locals have cherished for generations. This unassuming bakery offers a welcome departure from the typical Roman breakfast of cornetti, instead specializing in the art of pizza al taglio—sliced pizza sold by weight that’s meant to be eaten standing up or on the go.

The star attractions here are deceptively simple. Their pizza rossa features a thin, crispy base topped with nothing more than a whisper of tomato sauce and pools of golden olive oil, yet somehow achieves something greater than the sum of its parts. The pizza bianca variations are equally compelling, whether topped with paper-thin potato slices or the classic Roman combination of anchovies and delicate zucchini flowers.

This is quintessential Roman street food at its finest—unpretentious, affordable, and absolutely delicious. There’s no seating to speak of, but that’s part of the charm. Grab your slice, find a spot against one of the nearby fountains, and take in the view of the neighboring piazza with its Michelangelo-designed palace while you eat.

Whether you’re looking for a quick lunch between sightseeing adventures or simply want to experience how Romans have been snacking for decades, Forno Campo De’ Fiori delivers an authentic taste of the city without any fuss or fanfare.
