Florence — Where We Ate & Drank

Florence travel guide

We've eaten our way through 39 restaurants and bars in Florence—from Gustapanino's legendary schiacciata queues to Procacci's truffle panini since 1885.

Florence earned two spring trips from us, and the second one confirmed the first: Gustapanino's schiacciata is worth whatever the queue says, Procacci has poured truffle-panino aperitivi since 1885, and the rooftop bars point straight at the Duomo. May, September or October—the city between crowds is a different, better place.

We've mapped 39 restaurants and bars across both visits, from New Bridge Pizza Club near the Arno to the Osteria Vecchio Cancello tables we kept coming back to. Every spot here is somewhere we actually ate, drank, or stayed.
