Flann O’Brien

This was by far the best casual dinner place to hang out family tried while in Rome. Seems like open all the time. Servers super friendly. Food is basic and awesome. Appetizers must have salami and cheese platter. Brochette all good, pasta is excellent. Ambience is great. Even the music mo town in Rome! Extra bonus, place was right next door to our hotel! Check it out.

Not amazing but not too bad. Stick with the pizzas and beer. We decided to eat here because it was close to our hotel by the Termini and you know what they say, «hunger makes the best spice».
There were plenty of people dining here, which is why we asked for a table. Unfortunately they are all tourists, but hey it’s not so bad getting travel tips from friendly Brits, Australians, and German just a few tables away.

Do not eat here. This was the worst meal I have ever had. I ordered a sandwich and it was inedible. They somehow screwed up a pizza in Italy. How do you do that? Are you even Italian? They even messed up french fries. This place looked so busy so we thought it would be a good pick. We were wrong. On top of the worst meal of my life, my boyfriends camera was stolen. When we told our hotel, they didn’t seem very surprised that it happened here.

I’ll never understand why this bar remained busy the entire week we were in Rome! Perhaps the convenient location as it was one of the first places we found after arriving into Termini. Famished, we ate a generous serving of pizza margherita and caeser salad. They also advertise an American breakfast if you need a taste of home.

On our last night in Rome we needed something not pizza or pasta. This was close to where we were staying and was in our Rick Steves book. I needed a burger. It was 10.5oz., cooked to order and better than I was expecting. Good and juicy with cheese and bacon that was actually crispy. My wife had a great grilled pork chop. And the kids had grilled chicken which was the best the had in the 8 days of traveling. The fries were standard issue frozen fries. The Harp was cold and perfect. Overall it was a good break from pasta etc. although the menu has pizza and pasta. The pizza looked pretty good. We held off on dessert and walked around the corner from the restaurant to a really good gelato place.

Sehr nettes Irish Pub. Nicht nur Bier und Wein, sondern auch Cocktails gibt es auf der Karte. Wir haben nichts gegessen aber das Essen hat sehr lecker ausgesehen und gerochen. Wären wir vorher nicht gerade essen gewesen, hätte ich gerne einen Burger probiert. Das Lokal ist außerdem größer als es beim reingehen zunächst scheint. Preise sind angemessen. Glaub, das war mein erstes rauchfreien Pub. Sehr angenehm, wenn man anschließend nicht wie ein Aschenbecher riecht. Und es gibt free Wlan. Im Ausland sehr nützlich.
Würde jeder Zeit wieder hingehen. :)

We were here on our honeymoon and we really wanted to see my Dallas Cowboys play the W. Redskins while we were there. We were told by everyone near and far to see American football here. WE show up and they are playing the Chargers and Chiefs. (what the hell?) dont they know its america’s team that’s playing right now?
nope guess not. so we asked the bartender at the very back of the restaurant at the 2^nd bar: if he could change just one of the tv’s to the Cowboys game… NOPE! I was so disapointed and i felt so helpless. My team is playing. you have the nfl ticket or something that let’s you see these american football games and you are refusing to change even one of the 100’s of tvs in there to my game.
Oh i was so sick about it. and as a side note: he mad me a delicious screw driver with Absolute Vodka. YUM! Oh how I wish he could have helped us bc that was good.
But no, he wouldnt change any of the 100 tvs in the ENTIRE BAR/​restaurant to the cowboys game so we left. We weren’t about to go very far since we had a big day the next day going to Ostia Antica. So we just ended up listening to it on wifi back at the hotel. (on the way home we walked by another bar on Via Firenze and Via Nazionale and they were showing no lie… DARTS! really?
Darts! I almost took a pic but thought better of it.

Omg! Only been in Rome for 8 hours and am having a fabulous time here. LUCA is making sure we’re are well taken care of. Lemon Chelo is Delish but Melon Chelo is
. sooooooo good!

Throughout my three-​day stay in Rome, I came here twice. Not because it was good but simply because it was convenient. It’s located right down the street from the M Gallery hotel, where I was staying.
The first time, we came for breakfast. And being the typical Americans we are, the ‘full American breakfast’ sign definitely lured us in. I ordered (what else?!) the bacon! Italian bacon tastes way different than American bacon — the taste, the texture, everything. I wasn’t a fan. Maybe because it wasn’t as fatty as the bacon I’m used to? Couldn’t quite put my finger on it.
The second time, my friend and I came to grab a drink — and that’s when the place was poppin. We were lucky to even nab a table for two, even though the place is huge. It was so big that it was almost like a maze to get to the bathroom downstairs. Not going to lie, I almost got lost getting back to the table (twice).
It’s definitely a touristy place. In fact, I don’t even remember seeing any non-​tourists in there. So if you’re from the states and you’re feeling homesick, Flann O’Brien is pretty much like the Irish pubs back home (except it’s 10x the size).

Für das den Tag abschließende Bier eine gute Wahl. Das Essen ist jedoch höchstens mittelmäßig. Die Kellner sind ziemlich gestresst.

Grand restaurant tres bie placés, une belle carte mais avec des produits congelés… Le service est simple mais rapide.

Burger was OK. Ravioli was only passable. House whine was good but expensive. Service kinda sucked. Good place for pricey beers and burgers.

Irish pub in Rome who would have thought it…
Its a nice enough bar offering decent beer, didn’t try the food. Football on all the TV screens, almost felt like a sports bar.
It is all part of the extensive Irish Secret Service, have you ever gone some place and there isn’t at least one Irish pub, and people drink and talk in these pubs. and with the listening devices planted in them the Irish get to hear everything that is happening ;-)
