The folks at budget travel made a video on “how to order\u00a0coffee like a Roman”<\/strong> before I could get around to doing it!! Unfortunately it cannot be embedded here, so please click this link to open the player in a new window.<\/p>\n

\"coffee_budgettravel\"<\/p>\n

The information is accurate and can be applied to ordering coffee in bars across Italy – there are only minor variations in nomenclature by region.\u00a0<\/p>\n

My only little correction is that the editor of the video says you can’t order cappuccino after 11am<\/strong>. The rule I know is that you can’t order it after lunchtime (and most certainly not along with or right after a meal!). The\u00a0“rule” is because all that warm milk takes space in your tummy and so is considered breakfast.\u00a0What rule do you abide by in Italy – if any?<\/p>\n

Here is a working list of coffee names<\/strong> that applies pretty broadly to central Italy.\u00a0 Please Add any more types and variations in the comments section!<\/p>\n

Caffe’: short coffee known as expresso
\nCaffe’ in vetro: expresso in a glass cup
\nCaffe’ lungo\/ americano: expresso left to drip longer so that it’s “longer”, but nothing like starbucks
\nMoka: coffee brewed in a moka maker like Bialetti (see article on how to use this little machine<\/a>!)
\nCaffe’ Hag: decaf (brand name that by extension includes all decaffeinated coffee)
\nCaffe’ macchiato freddo: expresso with a drop of cold\u00a0milk
\nCaffe’ macchiato caldo: expresso with a drop of\u00a0warm\u00a0milk froth (like a mini cappuccino)
\nCappuccino: expresso to which is added warm milk and its froth. Cocoa on top is optional.
\nCappuccino senza schiuma: without foam, just expresso with warm milk
\nCaffe’ latte: kinda like a cappuccino senza schiuma, but even more warm milk (favourite for breakfast with dunked cookies)
\nLatte macchiato: warm milk with just a mini shot of expresso, usually served in tall glass
\nCaffe’ corretto: expresso with a shot of grappa or any other alcohol<\/p>\n
