Part sushi restaurant, part cocktail bar, part club: Coropuna is located a little further out of Rome than spots I'd usually write about, but it’s worth the extra travel time to reach this one-stop weekend spot.
The space itself is really different to a lot of the bars in the centre of Rome – an airy New York-style warehouse, complete with courtyard and terrace, adorned with Instagram-worthy greenery and lighting to match.
Although a little on the expensive side, the drinks are great - there's a good selection of cocktails and the Cusqueña beer from Cuzco in Peru is a nice touch. The food is a Japanese-Peruvian fusion - think sushi and meat plates. The nice thing about Coropuna for me is that it transfers effortlessly from early evening bar, to restaurant, to club - so once you've made the effort to get there, you can stay for the whole night!
