This place is viral, but for good reason. Favored by both locals and visitors, Vivoli offers…read moreincredibly delicious and creamy gelato and affogato. 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!

hands down the BEST thing I ate in all of Italy…read more I would book a flight to come back to Florence for this delicacy alone. no other establishment should be allowed to call their gelato and espresso an affogato without express permission from Vivoli. sure there's a line, but it is worth every little second of the wait. they crank these out and they are absolutely marvelous. my only complaint is that they're so busy that you could only choose from pistachio and plain instead of their larger selections of gelato. 10/10!!

La Strega Nocciola was one of several gelaterias that I tried while in Firenze. I made it my…read moreintention to try as much gelato as I could in the city so when we had some down time post-lunch we thought that a little sweet would hit the spot. To be transparent, one of the things that drew me to La Strega was the name, I wanted to see what was so witchy about this gelato - and of course the positive reviews helped. The gelateria itself was lovely - soft music playing with intricate decor and a good amount of space. There were a few chairs and stools in case you wanted to sit and enjoy, though they were a little awkwardly placed. There were several flavors of gelato as expected - instead of being on display they were in tubs covered in lids. I heard that's the "proper" way to store gelato as it remains fresher, though the jury is still out for me on that one. Anyway, I got the smallest cup size where I was able to choose two flavors - so I went with the cream and the chestnut. The gelato was really good - creamy with great flavor. Service was great, and overall this was a solid gelateria - La Strega is definitely worth stopping into when in Firenze.

This shops is conveniently located not far from the duomo. The witch theme is so cute and they have…read moresome inhouse flavors available which I chose my. The service is kind and patient with those who struggle to order in Italian.
