What a cute little spot in Florence!…read more 1. I was craving boba while in Italy and found this spot while walking around. It is such a hidden gem. We loved it so much we visited twice. 2. We tried the matcha fagioli rossi granita, mango con mochi, and matcha latte. I didn't have high expectations but everything was so good and refreshing. The matcha latte was one of the better matcha drinks I had while in Italy. 3. The interior is really cute and the employees are friendly and helpful. 4. Like someone else said, if you need a break from gelato, come here!

The former was a blend of taro paste, sago, and boba in a light but creamy soup. The latter was a mix of lychee jelly, fruit pieces, shaved ice, and aiyu jelly in juice. Refreshing, light, and not too sweet--perfect for an after-dinner summer treat. I would absolutely go again if we had time!

The lines seem long, but they move quite quickly! Pro tip: choose the left line if you're ok with classic or pistachio-topped affogato. It moves much faster compared to the right line. Also you can also order gelato in that line! We came here twice during our trip here. The espresso is freshly brewed after they line your cup with gelato. It's perhaps also the priciest spot we've been in our whole gelato/affogato adventures in Italy - 6€ for classic and 9€ for pistachio topped affogato. However we thought it was worth every euro! They also have gelato options as well! I got a piccolo cup, which is 3€ and comes with 2 flavors. I got their pistachio and hazelnut flavors, and my goodness, it was the best gelato I had throughout my whole trip. The pistachio comes through very nicely without and the hazelnut packs a punch of a flavor! Also I was able to take my gelato and mix with the espresso from my affogato to try some new combinations. Must go if you're in Florence!

The shop look like Willie Wonka designed them and they are stunning. I am a bit leery about large batch, high production, factory gelato, but when in Sienna, oops wrong city. Venchi is to pretty not to try once. The interior has a highly polished and fancy glossy magazine look while the gelato is piled high. I ordered the stracciatella, vanilla gelato with chocolate bar shaving that melt in your mouth. A simply memorable flavor that I've previously seen but never ordered. This is delicious, packed with flavor scoop with a slight crunch. I know chain food places are taboo, especially in Italy, however this was another exceptional scoop of gelato. A flavor definitely one should not skip. Go in, look around and try Venchi gelato as the store design is beautiful and the gelato is equally delicious.

La Loggia degli Albizi boasts a warm and welcoming atmosphere with an all-round authentic Italian vibe.

The pastries tasted amazing.  It was good value for the money. The staff who worked here were really professional and friendly, and we felt very welcome.
