    This Caffé was my favorite memory during my visit in Florence. I think about it often now that my trip is over. I was greeted with the utmost kindness from both the customers and the employees. I continued to come back multiple times during the few days I was there. The people, the atmosphere, the food, it all made it feel like I was at home. And to top it off, the owner’s mother and aunt both made all of the pastries and cakes that I tried, which were the absolute BEST I’ve ever had. I can’t wait to come back on my next trip!

    Very nice and small cafe. We had two Aperol Spritz for just 5€ and the Aperol was the best one I’ve ever had! Really recommend!!

    Excellent coffee shop and bar, with friendly staff and an impressive display of meats and cheeses for your focaccio or ciabatta sandwich. A relaxing haven.

    Super cute bar with lovely staff. If you want to have a nice aperitivo or a light lunch in the center of Florence you should be heading here!!! Highly recommended - fair prices (not that obvious in Florence) Ps: I’m Italian and I can say this a good place to eat and drink !

    Visited Jan 2023. Whilst wandering the streets of Florence we found this small café. Ordered Cappicino and a Warm Milk along with a piece of lemon cake between us. The cake came out warm and with cream as well as 2 spoons. The coffee was good and so was the milk but the cake was fantastic! Nice and fresh, flavoursome, warm and a size that was enough for 2 people. And all this for 6.50 euros! It might take a bit to find but worth it. Service was friendly and quick.

    The English menu was hand-written and smudged, so I wasn’t 100% sure what I was ordering, but it turned out to be the BEST sandwich I have ever eaten in my life! It might not look like much but it was simply the most flavorful sandwich ever. Made fresh with eggplant hummus made in-house earlier that day, goat cheese, prosciutto, arugula and fresh (delicious) bread—I want another one right now! (Coffee was also good!)

    Charming little hole in the wall cafe and bar. Very resonably priced and a nice place to rest your heels after walking around the city.

    Friendly people and wonderful tagliere We had a plate of various cheeses and salamis. The owner went into extra trouble to cut everything with a separate knife that had not touched gorgonzola, to make sure my boyfriend would be safe eating everything (because of his allergy to cheese mold). The wine and his homemade pastes were delicious too. Everything he served us comes from small local farms. A must-try!! ps. Great coffee too

    Came here while on my trip to Florence and it was definitely one of my highlights. The service was amazing and the staff were lovely. The hot chocolate is a must have and the food was so flavoursome. I’m obsessed with all the little finer details such as their handwritten menus. Definitely recommend

  • 5/5 L B. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious sandwiches and spritz. Friendly staff who happily made up a vegetarian sandwich with everything we wanted. Quiet and great to stop and relax. Definitely try this sweet cafe.

    We've had an amazing, fresh and made on site sandwitches and iced latte. Top atmosphere and service, highly recommend! Also, honest prices and no service fee.

  • 5/5 Carissa W. 1 year ago on Google
    Panino made to order - fresh and delicious. Paired with a spritz, a perfect combination before climbing the duomo.

  • 2/5 Harry M. 2 years ago on Google
    Our cappuccino tasted like the espresso had been made with old coffee ground. We had to throw it away. What a waste of money and resources. One star extra because staff was generally friendly, even though he seemed to be somewhat unfocused.

  • 5/5 Breanna W. 9 months ago on Google
    Amazing staff, amazing food, amazing atmosphere. It really felt that I was in the heart of florence. The handwritten menus made it feel like you are home. Can't recommend this place enough.

    Great cake and delicious coffee. Wonderful service. Full recommendation.

  • 5/5 Theresa D. 1 year ago on Google
    Fabulous little place serving coffee, soft drinks and a small but well chosen selection of wines. We had a lovely local Chianti as well as some small aperitivo which included delicious charcuterie and cheeses. The owner was very warm and friendly and described what he was serving with knowledge and passion. We thoroughly enjoyed a number of visits during our recent stay in beautiful Florence.

  • 5/5 K F. 1 year ago on Google
    Very cute caffè with lovely staff. The cake (Schiacciata alla Fiorentina) and the granita were really good. (If you like lemon don't miss out on the granita, absolute bonkers!) Prices were definitely ok compared to other places around! I'd recommend.

  • 5/5 Joy B. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious cake and lovely coffee. Also happily made a warm milk for my husband who can't have coffee or chocolate. The cake was plenty for us to share and the lovely lady there have us 2 spoons without is even asking. Very reasonable prices.

    Perfect taglieri: homemade pestos, cheeses, ham, salami etc. Good wine. Nice place with character. What's more, the lady at the bar is adorable 😉

  • 5/5 Felicia N. 1 year ago on Google
    High quality meats, cheeses and appetizers from local sources. We went for aperitivo and we were so impressed. The waiter took the time to explain the origin of all of our food to us. We will definitely be back!
