Blueberry muffin and plain yogurt with fruit and granola.
Sydney A.

Not my favorite breakfast or lunch spot in Florence but it was pretty good. staff is all super warm and welcoming and I would definitely feel special orders here if looking for a place.

I am so in love with this place. If they had Wifi I swear I'd be here all day. Best place to come in Florence for bagels and american style baked goods. They often have special types of quiches and savory casserole dishes. But their cupcakes are awesome and I love the brownies too. The coffee (american style) is OK too, although I prefer something a bit stronger ... Besides the food, why I keep coming back is because the bakery is big and spacious, lots of seating and an outdoor seating area. Big windows, always a table available, even during rush lunch hour. Like I said IF they had WiFi I would come more often ; ) HINT HINT M Bakery! I'm not holding my breath though ... it's been more than three years and still no wifi. I love this chill place and the staff is always friendly accommodating. Gotta come here for breakfast or a late afternoon sweet snack!

Breakfast bagel =)

It's easy to get lost trying to find Mama's Bakery (ask me, I got lost nearly every time I went, and I lived there!), but once you find it you're glad you toughed it out. It's hard to make out from the street, right until you're standing in front of it. This was one of my go-to places for those moments when I just really, REALLY wanted a bagel sandwich or a cupcake. Or a cookie. *ahem* I went here with my girlfriends for bagels and coffee, so I have many fond memories here. A good amount of the word-of-mouth advertising is directed towards the expat community and study abroad schools, so if you're looking for a place that feels a bit more like home then look no further. Love the coffee and tea refills too =)

Cinnamon roll and the eggs benedict.
Tina S.

The eggs benedict here is amazing. I cannot wrap my mind around the fact that the best brunch I have had in Florence is from a cafe! Will be back to eat the eggs benedict again and try the french toast!!

Sunday brunch at Mama's Bakery: benedict eggs + spicy carrot cupcake + cofee. The cupcake was fab, cinnamon flavoured and a delicate soft cheese cream topping...and then, a visit to Picasso exhibition. Great Sunday!!

Delicious salmon bagel and lovely service. Cute courtyard in the back and they offer the ever important free wifi!!!

We had the egg/cheese/ham bagel along with this chocolate raspberry muffin, deliciousness!

Great American/Italian mix of flavor! It's hard to find somewhere where they actually sell actual breakfast, but this does! This place is pretty sweet!

This is the best bakery I've ever been too. Especially in Florence. I am from the state of Alabama…read morein the US and I am here solo taking a coffee course near the city. As time passed being here, I realized I really wanted to experience more of the local places. And man is this one of them. The husband and wife that run the shop are the most welcoming and the place makes me feel like I've traveled back in time when I walk in. The quality is unmatched. I've never smelled such an aroma of bread before I walked into La Panetteria. Also, I knew just enough Italian to order what I wanted which made the experience so cool! Please stop by here if you are in the area! Ciao!

How fortunate we stumbled into this marvelous bakery quite by accident when being directed to…read moreanother establishment by our Airbnb host. When I mentioned we loved the bakery to him and had rated a bit of breakfast there every day in Florence, he said he did know of the place and it was his go to bakery but he would not have thought the recommend it to tourists! While everything we tried was delicious, they make a little savory potato and rosemary pastry that was to die for. We stopped and got a bag full for our trip to Rome the day we left. A real local gem. No coffee here but suck it up and drink water or take back to your hotel and enjoy. Most probably would not venture over if not staying in the area, but do if you are.
