This charming café invites both locals and travelers to indulge in authentic Roman flavors, creating a perfect atmosphere for a leisurely breakfast or a mid-afternoon pick-me-up.

As you step inside Vimi Cafe, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingles with the scent of buttery pastries, setting the stage for a sensory experience like no other. The café boasts an inviting ambiance where the chatter of friendly conversations harmonizes with the clinking of cups, making it a genuinely local haunt rather than just a tourist stop.

Vimi Cafe Roma's menu is filled with tempting choices. Sip on a rich, bold espresso or a smooth cappuccino that are highly praised for their robust flavors—just what you need to kickstart your day. Customers rave about their croissants, perfectly flaky and buttery, which pair beautifully with any of their coffee selections.

However, many others have enjoyed their pastries, affirming that each bite is worth savoring. As Tom Wilson noted, “the portions are large and delicious,” and with such fair pricing, it’s a great value that allows you to indulge without breaking the bank.

I visited this cafe for breakfast in the first morning in Rome. Locals usually have brioche (croissant) with espresso or cappuccino, but this place had a set menu with eggs. The staff was friendly and I had a happy breakfast time. The atmosphere is more local than for tourists, but they are kind even you speak to them in English. Credit cards are accepted.

I stopped here just to rest and recover from walking around this hilly area of Rome . Small local cafe, friendly staff. Good cappuccino. What not to like!

Great little local spot. With decent coffee, espressos and capuchino. Has options for sandwiches, salad and some pastries. Good spot to relax for a little bit or have a breakfast or refuel on caffe.
