Marzapane: Elevated Brunch

Savour a Slow start to the Morning…

IIn the heart of Flaminio, just a stone’s throw from Piazza del Popolo, lies a culinary treasure that is redefining the Roman brunch scene—Marzapane. What was once a fine-dining institution has reinvented itself, swapping white tablecloths for cozy corners and serving specialty coffee and creative breakfast offerings. With its signature touch of culinary ingenuity, Marzapane effortlessly balances sophistication and comfort.

Innovative dishes, charm, and coffee perfection await you.

Walking into Marzapane feels like stepping into a modern European dream. The upstairs café exudes warmth and charm, with family-friendly vibes, while downstairs houses an inviting bakery filled with aromas that make it impossible to leave without sampling something. Every detail, from the vintage floral plates to the artful presentation of the food, invites you to linger a little longer.
The menu features beloved classics elevated to new heights alongside an array of pastries that are as unique as they are delicious lead by pastry chef Dalila Salonia. The pancakes, crowned with fresh berries, bananas, and powdered sugar, were such a hit with my family that we ordered them twice in one sitting. Not a drop of syrup was left behind.  

For coffee enthusiasts, Marzapane is a dream come true. With a dedicated coffee menu, it’s clear that every cup is crafted with precision and care. For me, it was the first real taste of home since arriving in Rome—the best Cappuccino I’ve had in the city so far. Passing through? Don’t worry; they offer takeaway coffee, a rarity in traditional Roman cafés. And while you’re at it, do yourself a favor and grab a slice of their banana bread—it’s an absolute must!

Marzapane’s charm lies not only in its menu but also in its thoughtful details and attentive staff. Each dish feels carefully crafted, and the service strikes the perfect balance of warmth and professionalism. Whether you’re coming with friends, family, or just yourself and a book, this is a place that encourages slowing down and savoring every bite.  

With its inventive flavors, exceptional coffee, and relaxed atmosphere, Marzapane is the perfect choice for anyone seeking a brunch experience where sweet meets savoury. Whether you’re just visiting Rome or settling in for a longer stay, this is a must-visit to fuel your day. For our family, it’s become the ultimate weekend retreat—we simply can’t get enough!
