Twist Bistrot Florence
An original and vintage bistrot
Laura from Florence
Twist Bistrot is the right place to stop if you are quite sad or tired. You'll find a friendly atmosphere any moment of the day, surrounded by vintage and colorful objects. It's like you have a drink inside a vintage market and most of the objects are on sale. If you found somebody to have a chat with, this is the right place. Otherwise, you can sit at a table and enjoy the music (almost exclusively from the '60s/'70s).
It is one of those places where you feel at home, attended by regular local customers that give you the feeling that you are surrounded by friends even the first time you go there. Furthermore, if you want a fancy night you can wear a vintage dress and attend one of their drag queen shows. Take note: it's better if you book a table in advance for one of these events!
It's a 5-minute walk from the Duomo.
My favorite moment: sitting at one of the tables outside the Bistrot drinking a cocktail and eating some chips and a tramezzino.
See you there!
