    Pistachio latte was so good! Not too rich, still get a coffee flavour. Excellent coffee and cocktail selection. Would go back in a heartbeat!

    Unexpectedly found this cafe walking along the Arno. Super nice place to stop by and take a break, absolutely loved the green interior! The food selection at the counter was superb, I tried the brownie and caffe latte and they were amazing! There was also a good amount of seating, both indoors and outdoors.

    Nice coffee shop for a pause near the Duomo and train station. They have good coffee. The salmon sandwich was really good. The carrot cake was a little bit dry. Inside, it reminds you like an old italian pharmacy, that is quite amazing. Outside, you can sit in front of a church, in a little florentine street. The only thing that I didn’t like much was that inside it’s a little bit uncomfortable the table seats, that they don’t have a back so you can’t hang anything. And sometimes there was a bad smell coming from the bathroom.

    Very pleasant service. Some light and healthy brunch options such as, a yogurt and granola bowl with fruit and honey. The Lavender Latte has real lavender sprinkled on top, which was nice. The syrup was a bit too sweet- maybe ask for half syrup.

    Stopped by here to take a break from walking and have a drink. Indoor and Outdoor seating with good options for drinks and also good options for food. Service was great and being in a tourist area English speaking was very simple. Great spot to have a drink and rest the legs.

    Such a great little spot to grab an Aperol Spritz, glass of wine, or snacks. They have a lovely menu that is extremely pescatarian, vegetarian and organic friendly. So glad that we stumbled into this place when we needed a break from the “steps challenge”. Good Lord, my feet hurt! Definitely give the spot a chance. We’ll be back for a light lunch tomorrow.

    We had the cornetto and the pita with prosciutto panini, along with an espresso and a kiwi and apple juice. Everything tasted good, would definitely recommend this place to everyone in need of a quick bite.

    Amazing little cafe with a pretty interior. The avocado and chicken wrap was very tasty. There were so many drink choices, it was difficult to pick! The staff were very friendly. Highly recommend this place.

    Such a wonderful place! The Verde spritz was so smooth. Staff is amazing! Great music selection.

  • 5/5 Ellie H. 4 months ago on Google • 7 reviews
    This was our favorite spot in Florence, we came here twice! The green spritz was delicious, and the matcha was absolutely perfect.

  • 5/5 Denisse M. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff is so kind that and I appreciate that so much. Coffee and torta di carote were absolutely delicious. The vibe was great and I’d surely come back.

  • 5/5 Giacomo 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely place very close to the cathedral but located in a quieter spot. Very friendly staff. We stopped for a hot drink and a cake and I loved their carrot cake. One can sit indoor and outdoor but in winter I always sit indoor! Will come back for breakfast!

    Had lunch at the terrace. The terrace is located near a busy street but because the terrace is surrounded by plants it feels a bit more private. The service is really good and the food it also delicious. It is a nice place to stop for lunch :)

    Best quiche I've ever had, and the lavender latte was bangin 😙👌 Also the staff are all super nice ❤️

  • 5/5 Kate 1 year ago on Google
    An absolutely wonderful breakfast here. The best in Florence! The omelette was amazing and the size of the coffee cups were huge! The croissants were delicious and all the staff were so lovely. Thank you so much for this lovely breakfast 😊

  • 1/5 Stefanos R. 1 year ago on Google
    The first day, we went to grab a double espresso, 2 people, 4€ in total, take away - everything was nice and good, the staff was helpful and friendly. The second day (on 17/07 Sunday, around 10:00 AM), we went again (as we really liked the place) to grab the same coffee for 2 people, take away. The barman (different one in this case) this time charged us 6€ (3€ per coffee). The million dollar question is: who do you think you are joking? The fact that you are in Florence, and you deal with many tourists per day, does not mean that you are the smart one, instead, you should be brain dead, Mr.Barman of 17 of July, 2022 if you think that tourists are idiots. The majority of the double espresso in Italy costs on average 2-2.2€. I did not want to argue because my mood and the vibe of the city helped, so I grabbed my extra priced espresso and went to the train station to continue my trip.

    We had a fantastic lunch here. The salads are great portions and the burrata pizza was so good!

  • 5/5 Chris 2 years ago on Google
    Total süßes Café mit guten Preisen mitten in Florenz, klare Empfehlung, der Kaffee ist sehr gut und das Personal äußerst freundlich. Really great experience! Good coffee, nice snacks, very friendly waiter, really welcoming. The cake was a little dry but five stars nonetheless. Edit: been here again one year later and it's still great! The number of seats on the terrace has more than double, coffee is still amazing, dolci as well.
