I walked by and something called me in to this cute little cocktail bar and sandwich spot. We had the best conversation and cocktails and felt at home. Definitely recommend! Renee and Andrea are awesome!!!

Amazing sandwiches, delicious coffee and really friendly crew. Love the ginger mayo twist on the Jersey Boy. Also a nice touch on supporting a local artist. A must-go during a trip to Florence!

These sandwiches were fantastic! The Sloppy rob was so good (best pork sandwich I've had in a long time) we ended up ordering another one and the nautilus was very refreshing and delicious :) the bread was perfect and the flavors corresponded. Employees were very sweet and the drinks were great as well!

Retrobottega delivers an exceptional experience with its amazing cheese board and impeccable service. Their well-deserved rating is a testament to their commitment to quality. Vegetarian options abound, complemented by a superb selection of house wines. A must-visit for any food enthusiast. Five stars!

In 3 weeks traveling all over central Italy this was hands down the best sandwich I had. Viva Fiorenza sandwich was the best! Fig jam prosciutto, aged pecorino and tomato pate. Soooo good! Can't wait to try the rest and very helpful and friendly staff and owner!

Delicious sandwiches (I recommend the Sloppy Rob or Spider Pork) - the Cocktails we’re also very good. Will probably come back tomorrow!

I still dream of their sandwiches. Every time Im in Florence, I stop by (once or twice haha). They were all super nice and made me feel welcome. I always drink their Aperol Spritz and their most delicious sandwich (forgot the name, but here are some pics)

Best sandwich I have had in so long. The Vina Florenzia (pictured) was a favorite, with stellar spreads to add to the bread and meats and cheeses making up heaven of a sandwich. A lot of good sandwiches in this city, but I can’t wait to return here.

I always say that the bread is the most important part of a sandwich and this place doesn't understand that. I got the mortadella and pesto sandwich and the bread is the same that you would get out of a supermarket and the meat was above average. Overall meh, didn't finish the sandwich. Only tried one though.

Wooow sandwiches!!! They have one of the best panini. We also tried the famous All’antico vinaio but we liked better these sandwiches, they deserve at least the same fame. The guys move very fast and you can enjoy staying inside at a bar table to enjoy the panini with a drink. We stayed 4 days in Firenze and ate 2 times here. Just amazing. Try any sandwich, it will be amazing. And the guys there are so friendly and helpful.

We had a quick lunch here and ordered the Sloppy Rob and Viva Fiorenza at the owner’s recommendation and had a glass of Prosecco each (it was good just thought it important to note why our meal might be a bit more expensive). Both were excellent and the owner was incredibly welcoming and polite and very interested to see how our food was. The Rob reminded me of a roast beef poboy from back home in Louisiana with great flavor. The Fiorenza was more what we expected from a Tuscan sandwich and the fig jam really made it pop. Would highly recommend this place as a quick quiet stop or you can grab and go from the table out front. Our bill wasn’t bad at around €25.

We stumbled across this shop on the way to a walking tour and it was possibly the best sandwich I've ever eaten. We tried one which included a good amount of freshly shaved mortadella, ricotta, basil pesto and a hint of lime zest! You could tell this sandwich was made with love... ❤️

My favorite spot in Florence. I go to school right in the city center, they know that I will show up at least 4 times a week. Depending on the hour of the day THEY ( all 8! of them) know what is my “usual”. The food is excellent, not to mention the choice of wines and spirits ( if you are a gin Tonic’s fan ask a for the Ginepraio). Cozy and very beautiful environment, love every single one of the staff member utterly. Remember: tipping is the sexiest thing you can do. Always. Ladies and Gentlemen

An absolutely amazing place to eat. As a group of foodies, we ended up lunching here three times during our time in Florence. The sandwiches are so tasty, made in front of you with only the freshest ingredients. The wines to accompany them were superb, and the staff couldn’t be more friendly. Eat in at the counter, or take away to enjoy as you walk. It’s no wonder that it’s so popular with locals. Highly recommended!

Best sandwich I had in Italy! We were staying next door and had cappuccinos here almost every morning. Get the pastrami sandwich , it’s amazing! And the service its even better. I recommend this to any one.

Visited Florence about 3 weeks ago and I miss this spot already. We didn’t try the food but the smell was delicious and the drinks were crisp. The staff was also completely wonderful and we especially loved the woman we met who helped us when we arrived. She’s from California and we had no idea. We hope to return someday to try the sloppy rob!

Amazing place and super friendly stuff! Made us feel very welcomed. The cibarie were delicious so was our cold brew. We will be back for sure. Love and kisses from your friends from Greece.

The most amazing place with the most amazing staff! They treat you like family and the place feels like an immediate home. The food is INCREDIBLE!! And together, the vibe of the place cannot be beat! I will be back tomorrow for sure. The place is a gem within Florence and the quality of the food and people has made my trip so far. Thank you so much! ♥️♥️

Great cheese platter and sandwiches. Great drinks. Amazing staff and good vibes. Renee and Andréa took such good care of us, going above and beyond. We came back twice in 3 days. Everything you can hope for as a tourist while travelling. Thanks guys!

Absolutely delightful place with absolutely stellar sandwiches and accoutrements. The vibe, the staff, the music, the street activity, everything about it was just delightful for a late afternoon sandwich. Their take on focaccia sandwiches are fantastic. Classic Firenze with a modern twist. Def stop by here.

Initially we only stopped for two coffee, we stayed for a serious delicious lunch, they made two smaller sandwiches and delicious home made lemonades for our kids. The sandwiches are very tasty. Everything is made fresh to order, the aperol spritz tasted delicious and the espresso was spot on. The staff was beyond friendly and helpful. Would come back more often when in Florence.

Where to start! We popped in following reading a favourable review in Discover Italia magazine and I’m so glad we did. The Spider Pork SCHIACCIATE was amazing! So much flavour and quality ingredients. The atmosphere was fantastic, the guys behind the counter were fun and friendly and clearly enjoy their work. Highly recommend a visit if you are ever in Florence. Fabulous food. Thank you. PJ & Pauline

So glad we stopped into this little shop before dinner. Giovanni was the best… we were deciding between a few reds and he let my friend and I taste them all. Hole in the wall ambiance and amazing hospitality.

This is a must try during any busy day in Florence. our family ate lunch here both days while in town. The sandwiches are completely original but still "Italian" and right at home in Florence. It was a wonderful and refreshing break from the typical Italian food found elsewhere. The staff was very friendly, and very willing to explain the menu and offer suggestions. Our kids loved the made-to-order fresh squeezed lemonade and orange juice. We had several different sandwiches over the two days and all were great. They had a vegan option when we were there but I can't say if they always will.
