San Pietro TTS Street Food

Street food at the foot of the 'Cupolone'

San Pietro TTS Street Food is the Roman stop of the traveling gastronomic tour by TTS Food (Typical Truck Street Food), a format created by Mela Eventi. The event transforms Piazzale Gregorio VII, in the heart of the Aurelio district near St. Peter's, into a large open-air gourmet village with a scenic view of the Dome of St. Peter's Basilica. Its location, along the charming Passeggiata del Gelsomino that connects the San Pietro train station to Piazza del Sant'Uffizio, makes it one of the most distinctive appointments in the food and wine calendar of Rome, in Lazio.

Over twenty street chefs live

The heart of the event is a brigade of over 20 selected street chefs, ready to cook fresh to order from their food trucks and kitchen stands. For three days, the square becomes the city's largest restaurant under the stars, with sweet and savory offerings, as well as vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options prepared to avoid cross-contamination.

• Italian regions: Sicilian specialties (arancine, cannoli, sfincione, pani ca meusa), Apulian (bombette, puccia, panzerotti, focaccia), Marche (olive all'ascolana), Abruzzese (arrosticini), and Roman dishes.
• International cuisine: Mexican, Venezuelan arepas, Greek gyros and souvlaki, Indian, Spanish, Argentine, and American barbecue.
• Desserts: tiramisu, crêpes, cassatine, cheesecake, and artisanal gelato.

Beer, cocktails, and atmosphere

The gastronomic offer is accompanied by a carefully curated selection of drinks: raw beer from the Bavarian brewery Landshuter Brauhaus and the Drink Lab, a mixology format with cocktails and Spritz prepared on the spot by expert bartenders. Lighting effects, music, and decor enhance the evenings, while spacious areas equipped with tables and seating allow visitors to enjoy their meals while gazing up at the Dome.

An event for everyone

With free entry and a formula designed for families, young people, and tourists, San Pietro TTS Street Food combines the tradition of Italian street food with the discovery of world cuisines. It is the ideal occasion for a gourmet stroll in one of Rome's most iconic spots, amidst the aroma of grills and the view of St. Peter's Basilica.
