Veronica from Florence

About me I am an artist/dancer/freelancer, originally from Los Angeles, California. I began traveling at age 17 and feel like I have been traveling ever since (naturally, I'm a Sagittarius). I like to say that, in 2015, I fell down a rabbit hole here in Florence.

Caffè Notte Florence

A bar with a crowd

""Caffè Notte" in Florence is a laid-back corner bar. I recommend you get their wine, even if it means spending a few extra euros -- it's still reasonable!"

This is a laid-back corner bar, nestled among the quieter streets of Santo Spirito. Wine is reasonably priced, starting with 2 euros for a 1/4 calice of the vino della casa. However, I’d definitely recommend spending a few extra euros for one of their more important wines, which are still reasonably priced.

At apperitivo hour, they serve their house-made schiacciata (flat bread), and sometimes have a selection of local prosciutto for tasting. The bar's central location makes it a great place to begin the night. Whether you’re later heading to a concert, or a film, or maybe just back home, it’s a great place to pause for a casual drink, and catch up with a friend. If hunger arises, no need to think about looking for another spot, they also have an extensive menu, including salads, crostini, and pastas.

If you are more of a night owl, you can definitely count on this place as a nice atmosphere to finish a night as well. The bar is open until 2:00am on Fridays and Saturdays and 1:00 am on Sundays.

Il Vecchio E Il Mare

Best Pizza In Florence?

Their pizzas are nothing short of incredible, thanks to a carefully crafted dough left to rise for 36 hours. But remember to save room for dessert!

Cantina Pacini

Wine & oil from the neighbourhood

"Cantina Pacini": a wine and oil shop (est. 1935) in Florence I like to visit. If you're lucky, you'll be visiting when they have fresh oil from the mill.
