Just down the street from our hotel, a very good pastry shop. In every town or city we visited,…read morebakeries were ubiquitous with breads and pastries a constant temptation. This shop is small, with limited space inside. There are tables on the sidewalk outside. For the full selection of baked goods, you have to be there early in the morning. In such a small town you'd be surprised at how quickly the stock is depleted. They are closed (by law) on Mondays. As in most bakeries in Italy, the croissants with jam or cream are very popular. Our young daughter fell in love with their mini sugar donuts (ciambella). She ate 5 or 6 one day on multiple stops there! Prices are very reasonable. I enjoyed my cafe latte each afternoon, served in a tall glass. Wish I had one right now. Even my wife who is not a coffee lover enjoyed the cafe lattes.

I hate fruitcake but this stuff was stellar, boldly spicy, perfectly sweet, and packed with just the right amount of pistachios, almonds and fruit.

I'm glad they're stuck in Greve!

This little bakery in the heart of Lucca was very busy and popular with locals. We stopped by in…read moresearch of a quick breakfast and were almost overwhelmed by all the choices. We chose a mini lemon fruit tart, croissant, palmier, and some kind of cream-filled choux. The croissant was our favorite with perfect buttery layers. Nothing else stood out in particular, but everything was fresh and well-made. Prices were reasonable. There's no seating in the bakery, which is to be expected in Italy, but there is outdoor seating a short walk across the street. On a nice day, it's really quite lovely sitting outside and people-watching while you enjoy your pastries.

The cookies are all crumble in your mouth fresh, with an attention to quality that is immediately apparent. Each offering has a unique style and flavor, and everything is very reasonably priced. The staff is super friendly, especially if you're making an effort to communicate in Italian. And as you'd expect, this cafe has a neighborhood, local feel. It's stylish and lively, but not overwhelming. One of our favorite spots in Montecatini.

My mother and I were on vacation in Montecatini at a hotel that was a 1 minute walk away (dangerous). Our morning routine was to get a cappuccino and un caffe. The espresso was strong and full of flavor. Most days we came back later in the day and tried other varieties - all great. Now about the desserts....nothing like I've ever tasted in America! Everything was so clean, had unique tastes with a perfect amount of sweetness - just mouthwatering. The prices were super low too. One visit we got 5 pastries for 8 euros. Giovannini makes me want to vacation there again ASAP!!
