I am going to Rome Italy at the end of March. I have never been there before. I am on a budget and want to know how much I can expect to pay per day for meals?
Answer on What is the cost per day Rome?
It depends on where and what you eat. If your hotel includes breakfast, you should take advantage of that to help you cut meal costs. If not, most people here have a brioche and a capuccino or espresso for breakfast and you can do that for a couple of euro.
You'll be able to find a lot of places where you could get a panino, bruschetta, or pizza by the slice for 3 to 6 euro plus a euro or two for a drink. A pizza will typically be 8 to 13 euro. For comparison, a McMenu value meal at McDonald's goes for around 7 euro give or take. Generally, the food will be cheaper and better if you're not in the immediate area of the major tourist attractions. Restaurants post menus, so you can check what's offered and prices while you're out exploring. I usually end up spending 25 to 50 euro for dinner when I'm out exploring, but you could eat well for less (or much more in some places).
