😠 We were blatantly discriminated upon based on how we looked…brown skin color apparently was not welcome. We were about to be seated outside in a nice seating area facing the piazza by one employee and then the lead host (the guy with left ear ring) walked over and immediately said no and to offer us... People often mention great, cocktails, nice, drinks, table,

    We were blatantly discriminated upon based on how we looked…brown skin color apparently was not welcome. We were about to be seated outside in a nice seating area facing the piazza by one employee and then the lead host (the guy with left ear ring) walked over and immediately said no and to offer us the inside seating only. There were many open chairs in the outside piazza and so it was very obvious what was happening. Don’t support racism…don’t support this business.

    👎🏼 Beautiful place but not inclusive at all! They looked at us once and it seems like we didn’t fit their profile…. I have not felt so un appreciated as a customer like in forever! I DO NOT recommend them. Let’s show them our Latino power 💪🏽

    A great spot on the sidewalk to eat small (tasty)dishes and drink something. Service is quick and polite. A nice way to end your evening.

    A great bar at a beautiful square! It offers cozy outdoor seating, so you can enjoy the view. There is also heating lamps, in case you are there later in the night. Inside the atmosphere is also unique, which makes your drink pause more special.

    Santa Cocktail Club: A really classy cocktail bar. We booked a table here to celebrate our Anniversary with a few cocktails. We’d specified we wanted a non smoking room, but when we arrived, a table had not been reserved and we were offered an area in the smoking room. We were asked to wait, select some cocktails whilst a table becomes available. We decided to leave as it was uncertain how long we would have to wait. It seems like a really nice option for some classy cocktails. There is a minimum spending fee however. A great location too with a great view outside in the courtyard.

    We had a great time in this hip spot in Florence.Techno tunes were blaring and they even had a DJ. I volunteered to take over, but for some reason they didn’t want a soccer and volleyball Mom from the US on the turntables. Whatev, I’m a hip Mom. 😂 Love the drinks and snacks, but it’s a bit on the expensive side. It’s located inside an awesome hotel, so that’s expected. It was a fun experience!

    No snacks served with the drinks, as usually there are in Cocktailbars. The cocktails and mocktails furthermore tasted so bad, i could make them better by getting some Schweppes and lemon from a discounter supermarket. Not the standard we were used to and not the same you get elsewhere for these normal prices.

    We stumbled on this place because the lighting on the building looked nice and they were playing some great music which made a nice chill vibe. We didn't have a reservation but they accommodated us anyway which was great and much appreciated as they did seem very busy. Food and service were great! We ended up having a night cap here all three nights which was nice. The manager (name is slipping my mind, but very well dressed with an earring) was very attentive and was part of the reason we went back all nights. I definitely would recommend and would visit here again if I'm back in Florence

    The best cocktails in Florence- very fresh and perfectly made. The service was also exceptional and the aperitifs were a lovely addition. We shall certainly be returning and highly recommend

    We came for a drink to finish up the night. They stop serving food at 10pm but continuing to serve drinks. Beautiful works of art - the drinks were delicious. There's a specialty cocktail with Hennessey and my friend said it was the one you had to get! Get dressy or go casual, it's a beautiful place to be.

    Beautiful location for delicious cocktails! The piazza was less crowded than others which made the experience even better. The drinks were delicious and the staff were very friendly. We liked it so much we went to the rooftop location in Rome! We would definitely go back.

    Great for sundowner. We were pleasantly surprised by Santa. We thought the drinks were over priced but amazingly they come with bites which are exquisite and the drinks are amazing which made this a solid experience even for the money. Don't be afraid of the price. This place and the scenery are worth it.

    Super nice atmosphere, people, waiters are super nice and efficient and it's a great place to have a drink, wine, etc with some snack food watching the piazza de Sta.Maria Novella

    The best cocktail bar of Florence. All the staff is great, especially the waitress Klaudia !

    Unfair treatment: Sitting with my Asian wife at a 4 person table. Asked to move to make way for a group of 4. Was ok to move but when got to other table which was small with no proper chair to find beside me was a table fir 4 with 2 Italians. I felt racially profiled as I was not Italian. Easier for the 2 beside us to move but they are Italians.

    Very comfortable, great view, nice staff. A bit too expensive.

    One word: Electric. Great place to have a cigarette and a dance. Great cocktails, I suggest the Michael Jackson. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating.

    Went for the cocktails and wasn't disappointed. They make alle the classic ones. Great service. Their signature cocktails are amazing. The price is worth for the quality. Fresh fruit ingredients in all of the cocktails.

    Simply perfect. Best cocktails in Firenze. Beautiful atmosphere, wonderful, great food. Couldn’t ask for more.

    Coctails are simply great: flavours and parfums are an experience to try, in a very nice location, one of the best squares in Florence. The way they are presented is of a great impact. The food is simply delicious and the staff are very friendly and efficient. A place of great atmosphere where to try a drink of international level at any time: from an aperitivo to an after dinner. The music in anjoyable but the volume is perhaps a little bit too high.

    Gianfranco was amazing. He is super service oriented, advising us on the best hidden places in Firenze while making the best cocktails for an evening out. Definitely recommend
