I woke up thinking about bread. Relatable, I think. There’s nothing more irresistible than warm bread fresh out of the oven. And with how chilly these mornings are lately, warm bread might be the only thing that can lure me out of bed.

Fortunately, I am in the land of excellent forni, or bread bakeries.

Yes forno literally means oven. β€˜The best ovens in town’ has such a better ring to it, doesn’t it? It’s also why some bakeries have the name antico forno (the old oven) in Italy. It means that oven is well-seasoned and cranking out some seriously historic carbs.

In Italy, bakeries have different names depending on what they specialize in. I feel no one talks about this enough. Many throw out there - the best bakery in Rome! But are we talking about bread? For cookies? For slutti maritozzi? My Italian side screams for details, details people!

Because here we are serious about bread. No mystery plastic bag-packed bread that lasts 3 years on the counter here.

The basic breakdown for names of bread bakeries in Italy is this:

forno, panificio, or panetteria

Which name is more common? This seems to be yet again a regional thing - here in Rome, it’s usually forno or panificio. Some say panificio means a more commercial bread producer but that’s not necessarily true.


Let’s be real - Rome is a big city. We’re talking at least 7 times bigger than Milano. So, have I tried every forno in Rome? No, but I can tell you the best of places I frequent often and that are consistently slutti and fabulous.

Aka, there will be a part 2 here because I love bread, I live for bread and am always on a search for…bread.

So, let’s start with the best bakeries in Prati neighborhood of Rome.
