About Café Merenda
Café Merenda brings specialty coffee and artisan viennoiserie together in Rome’s Ostiense district, just opposite the Gazometro. Founded by Chiara Caruso, the café has grown from its pastry-led identity into a thoughtful coffee destination, with a house 100% Arabica blend from Torrefazione ’68 and rotating single-origin coffees from Aliena Coffee Roasters.
Espresso is treated with care, while filter coffee has also featured on the menu, including Moccamaster preparations. The coffee works particularly well alongside the café’s laminated pastries, cakes and savoury breakfast dishes. The atmosphere is warm, relaxed and distinctly European rather than built around the typical Italian bar format. For specialty coffee drinkers visiting Rome, Café Merenda is a strong Ostiense stop when coffee and pastry matter equally.
