La Vineria, the Reggio family's century-old enoteca, sits in the middle of Campo de' Fiori with cheap glasses at the inside counter, a wider outside markup and a piazza-side crowd that locks down the square through the late hours.
TipA glass at the inside bar is the deal; tables on the piazza carry a markup for the view. The kitchen is short, eat first elsewhere.
Bar dei Brutti has been a San Lorenzo dive anchor since 2011, with two scruffy inside rooms, outdoor tables on Via dei Volsci and an under-five-euro cocktail list that draws students and locals through the late hours of the university quarter.
TipCash works best; the cocktails are cheap and strong. The piazza around the corner is the late-night spillover when the bar fills.
Il Vinaietto has been a counter-only wine bar near Largo Argentina since the 1960s, run by Marco Maccione and Giancarlo Ministeri with a long list of Italian regional wines including organic and natural pours and a street-side crowd that spills onto Via del Monte della Farina.
TipDrink standing; there are no real tables. Bring euro coins for cheap glasses and ask the owners for a regional pick.
Lanificio 159 occupies a 3,500 square metre former wool factory on the Aniene river in Pietralata and runs house, techno and disco nights on Fridays and Saturdays from September through May, with occasional Thursday live shows.
TipThe club sits north of the centre near the Aniene; budget for a taxi back since transit ends well before the floor does. The complex also houses a restaurant if you want to eat before the doors open.
Shari Vari Playhouse occupies a seventeenth century palazzo a short walk from the Pantheon, running daytime cafe and restaurant service that turns over to a clubby night programme of house, hip hop and commercial sets on weekends.
TipThe Friday and Saturday late slots fill with a student crowd and the dress code tightens after midnight. Reserve a table if you want guaranteed entry on a peak weekend.
Spazio Novecento occupies a thousand square metre hall inside €'s Palazzo dell'Arte Antica and runs as one of Rome's biggest weekend dance rooms, with house and commercial nights drawing a capacity of around 2,000 across two floors.
TipThe room is huge by Rome standards and the night peaks past 02:00. The € metro is the easy way in; the last train home is well before close so plan a cab.
