Read moreWe were walking around in our first night in Florence, and to be honest we just needed a bathroom. I saw they had cocktails and figured we'd just try it out.
Based on our night here I would 100% recommend this spot if you're looking for a spot to just relax and enjoy a nice atmosphere and good drinks. The bartenders were cool as hell and the drinks were surprisingly good!
I ended up just trusting the bartender to make us something that would set our first night out here on the right track and they delivered!
If you're looking for a cool vibe and just trying to enjoy a quick stop or even a place to relax, give this spot a try.
Heads up, they don't do table service (and that's not a negative), but go in and if they have time get to know the bartenders and let them cook.
To these guys tonight - appreciate you and helping us have a great first night...

This food, prepared in the small kitchen of the bar, tasted fresh and excellent.
With a good glass of Pino Grigio (€6), summertime juice (pineapple, orange, apple, ginger (€5)) and water, we recharged our batteries, enjoyed the Italian flavours and prepared ourselves for our next excursion to art and culture...
