Hangar Florence

A bar and a social space

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. Other than traveling, the things I treasure are: farms and farmers' markets, cooking/hosting dinners with friends, tasting/learnin...
""Hangar" in Florence is a whole different world. It's an after-dinner bar with a funky-kitsch and part-time spiritual/esoteric side. I ought to come more!"

Hangar is a place I ought to go to more often. It is another world, to say the least. As far as Florence bars go, Hangar is my favorite, because it is an anomaly. If I had to describe it in few words I’d say it’s a funky-kitsch kind of place with a part-time spiritual/ esoteric side. It opens at 21:30, so it is necessarily an after-dinner hangout.

The inside is filled with an electric assembly of objects that could each be a stand-out piece in a different bar. Put all together, they collide to make a dream-like space. On the bars off hours, the space holds events such as reiki-shares, meditation seminars and drumming circles. If you're looking for live music, check out their Facebook page for upcoming concerts.

Two things to note: all costumers have to get a membership to the bar, at a cost of €3, but if you’re like me you’ll definitely want to keep coming back, which makes the membership worth it (especially since the drinks are pretty low-cost). Secondly, like any good Florentine spot, they close for the month of August—presumably to rest, rejuvenate, and perhaps party elsewhere for a change.

Florence Spotter Veronica

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. Other than traveling, the things I treasure are: farms and farmers' markets, cooking/hosting dinners with friends, tasting/learning about wine, discovering new places, dancing, spending time in gardens, and walking in the hills in and around Florence. Why Florence I originally found myself in Florence in 2015,...

The Gran Cru

The friendly bar downstairs

"The Gran Cru" is something between a beer shop and pub in the south of Florence. I like how it has a friendly atmosphere and the tips by owner Francesco.

Game changer gelateria

"Edoardo" Florence is a lovely gelateria just on Piazza Duomo that I love. The prices are above average, €3 for the smallest portion, but it's all organic.

Lila Toys

A toy store without gender stereotypes

Their idea of what a toy shop should be is: gender-neutral (it sounds like a revolution to me!). Kids are free to touch everything and to choose on their own.
