Welcome! The Loving Cup has stood for CC years on the Aventine, even when our patrons can't. Enter our elegant lamplit main patrons' rooms or step next door to purchase your own take-home amphora of the best wines in the Empire!

Our Chief Sommelier, Timon, and our sophisticated and well-trained wait-staff will be happy either to serve you with the finest Falernian or drown you in the cheapest mulsum-and-water, or take you behind in the alley to deal with any credit problems! Our fine musicians will delight the ear while our sommeliers will arrest the palate. The most succulent toasted dormice in Rome!

The Loving Cup has been a legend on the Aventine since the days of Gaius Gracchus (he sampled our wares just before he was tossed in the Tiber. They say he splashed with a smile). We belong to all the best Roman drinking clubs and private rooms can be had for all purposes for a modest bit of baksheesh.

Make The Loving Cup the locale for your next celebration, or take home a cartload of amphora from our Vintnery today!
