LOCATION
Highlander Pub is open every single day of the year! Currently, we are open from 11 am till 2 am daily.
Some of our guests have a bit of a hard time finding our pub! Indeed we must admit the The Highlander Pub is quite well hidden even if it is only 5 minutes walk from famous Roman sites like Piazza di Spagna (Spanish Steps) or The Pantheon! Indeed it is one block away from Palazzo Borghese and The Italian Parliament is only a minute walk too!
Here is the best way to get to us from The Spanish Steps. Now you need to follow these verbal instructions and apply them on the little map below. So, from the Fountain in Piazza di Spagna you take Via Condotti (the famous street with fashion stores) walk all the way until you cross Via Del Corso. You will see the Fendi Store and that is where Via Condotti changes names with Via Fontanella Borghese. Keep walking straight until you reach Largo Fontanella Borghese. Go straight through the largo for another 50 meters where it touches Piazza Fontanella Borghese with the vendors of paintings and antiquities. Turn left at that corner and you will start walking on Via della Lupa. Highlander Pub will be on the right hand side of Della Lupa with the entrance in Vicolo di San Biagio, about 50 meters from the largo!
