Thermopolium (VI,8,8-9)

Characteristic and very widespread in Pompeii (there were 89), the thermopolia were public establishments (a sort of ‘snack-bar’) that served hot food and drinks (thus the Greek-style name): it was indeed customary to lunch (prandium= midday meal) outside the home. This is a typical, simple structure: one room opening onto the road, with a brick tap—often decorated—into which were sunk the dolia (jars) containing the goods: at times, one could eat one’s meal sitting down in the back rooms.

The Excavation of Pompeii is far from our bed and breakfast only 1 Km.
