Perditempo runs an eclectic bookshop, record store and bar on Via San Pietro a Maiella near Piazza Bellini, with two scuffed inside rooms, sidewalk tables.

Cammarota Spritz has anchored Vico Lungo Teatro Nuovo in the Quartieri Spagnoli as the city's canonical one-euro Aperol spritz counter, with a tiny inside.
