Why Travelers Love Mercato Centrale
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Pretty solid selection overall: pizza, pasta, vegan, Asian, meat lover options, bakery, wine, and desserts. I ended up choosing the truffle store, which serves pasta and also sells products you can take home(truffle oil etc). There were way more truffles than I expected! The staff in the market also go around to take drink orders. Gd quality High-end foodcourt. Their T-bone is sooo Good. Gd selection of wine… Clean environment with plenty decent comfy seats. Clean toilet. Use your receipt to scan into the washroom. A one-stop location with multiple food stalls. Caters to the carnivores and the vegans. From savoury to sweet and everything in between. Plenty of different types of drinks depending on what you're in the mood for. Price is average but considering it's location, I get it. Worth checking out. The meat counter is a must. Surprise of the day is the dark chocolate and gorgonzola gelato - shouldn't work but it does oddly (if you like blue cheese). As it's by a train station, expect a bit of chaos but it's part of the charm.

Just down from the main station, this food market - more like an upmarket food court, really - has amazing local specialties. Sandwiches, arancini, supplí, pizza, pasta and wonderful cakes. Don’t miss it.

Saw a TikTok video about this market food hall and how this is great place where locals come when at the Termini Train Station. I had a had time finding it in the station but could be because of all the construction. Anyways we got two slices of Roman pizza to share and it was delicious. Would definitely come back and would try other food options
