Their gelato is tasty, not overly sweet, made with good and fresh ingredients and if you want to try, they will let you sample. They use the metal containers (which let you know it is authentic gelato) I liked it so much, that I went twice during my stay! I had the lavender and cream and the lavender with dark chocolate. Both were delish!

Our daughter and fiance always wanted the affogata. This must have been an old restaurant as it had a wine window. The shop does not operate the window, but I kept seeing people knock on the door and getting handed affogato. Then I saw my daughter do it and saw her fiance handing her the cup. LOL. So many people do this and take videos. They both enjoyed the affogato enough to go 3 or 4 times during our visit.

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!

Not your normal ice cream parlor…read more We were strolling through Florence's narrow cobbled streets and saw this. Looked new and different. We entered and they welcomed us and explained their work and how they sell gelato by weight. It was 24 euro/kg. You get the cup/cone and you can choose your choice of flavor, and get the chance to operate the machine. Choose your toppings and they will weight it and tada... It was cool, what more cooler was their ambiance and scene. Swings coming out from the ceiling, Wallpaper, cute tables-all making it super cute and "don't wanna leave' place. I also ordered hot chocolate and believe me I was drinking p**S in the USA. This hot chocolate was really thick, felt I am drinking melted chocolate. So happy with their gelato-coffee and their cool ambiance. You have to come and try this.

Super annoyed that we had to ask what the flavors were. WellX when the tags are all in Italian.... Having said that, they have some amazing unique recipes. The matcha was legit. Nothing artificial about it. My foodie teen said the ambrosia was "so complicated with its layering of flavors". (Had to ask this one too, Yogurt honey and cinammon, I think this is when he started getting annoyed with me!) you really get the cinnamon at the end, but in a good way.

Prior to our trip, Gelateria Perche No was lightling up the internet. Located on a small side street is the cool gelato spot. The alley out front is stuffed with travelers walking around and enjoying a cool scoop. I looked over the possible selections and yes, chose the stracciatella. A full size scoop of creamy delight with shaved chocolate chunks inside. I did have to laugh as several people ordered scoops, then tried to get a photo of it. Due to the heat the scoops were melting rapidly and the gelato was leaking all over their arm or clothes. If you are in Florence, stop here at Gealateria Perche No for a delicious scoop of cool gelato.

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.

The cherry was just okay but I really enjoyed the black sesame. Hubby had pistachio and a strawberry cheesecake, and I liked the pistachio. There aren't many flavors to choose from, which is one of the signs of a good gelato place. While the gelato itself was good, the flavors didn't really appeal to me so I kind of just settled on those two. So if you want to try the flor di latte, seems you need to go way earlier than I did.
