Data Records 93 is a fantastic record shop right in the middle of one of the most beautiful and festive cities in the world, Firenze, Italia! My wife and I filled several holes in our collection in here, and had a great shopping experience. Staff was super warm and just so happy to chat with us. Upon telling one staff member that I might return a bit later for more digging, he responded promptly by writing me a discount ticket for our next visit. Wow, that's service for ya. Then, when you are done shopping, walk a few steps to Gelateria dei Neri and get your sweet on! There, I just planned your afternoon for you. Your welcome.

Pretty cool to see some LP records, beautiful notebooks etc. Could definitely have spent much longer if we didn't have to leave. I had a piadina wrap that was real dry- so not recommend- but everything else was fantastic! Definitely worth it for cappuccino, chill vibe - and muffin was good.

At the desk there's take away food and desserts, that's where I found a stool to sit. The line to get a Coffee was very long and the same people that where preparing orderes juggled with the counter position which generated even more caos, I think. My orzo was good and so the ginseng my friend took, prices fair too!

I know that I'm going to sound like an uncultured American saying this, but La Feltrinelli Express…read moreat the Santa Maria Novella train station is my favorite place in Florence to sit down, drink a cappuccino, and eat a pastry. Whenever we have to take the train somewhere we first head over to La Feltrinelli and my husband and I will each get a cappuccino and we all each order a sweet pastry. I'm sure some other place makes the pastries and delivers them daily, but wherever this place is, it makes some of our favorite donuts, croissants, and other treats. My daughter and I especially rave over the chocolate-filled donut--perfectly light and yeasty dough and very chocolately. If we still have a few minutes before our train leaves we'll browse the books and gifts. They have a great selection of books, some of which are in English. I took one star off because the workers can be very brusque and with what little Italian I know I've heard them bemoan and complain about the tourists to each other. I even caught one criticizing my Italian to another worker in front of me--I figured out she was mocking me and explained I'm trying to learn the language. But otherwise, I really like La Feltrinelli in the SMN train station. I think part of the appeal of La Feltrinelli is it's the closest thing to Barnes & Noble that we have in Florence. And to be able to relax and get something to eat and drink in a nice, clean, well-lit shop before a hectic day of traveling is very appreciated.
