You can get the best produce hands down here! The fruit and vegetables almost look fake!…read more Supposedly an American Magazine took a photo and didn't give this fantastic place the proper credit they deserve. If you ever visit Florence you really must stop by and get some of the produce, you will not regret it.

We were visiting Livorno and came here to check out this popular central market place. It's got…read moremany vendors selling baked goods, meats, seafood, cured meats, cheeses, and some other items. They have food vendors inside as well. The entire place is interesting and clearly been around a long time. It was about 2/3 populated with vendors, so there were plenty of empty spaces. Overall, it's one of the very few things to see/do in Livorno. There isn't a lot going on in this town otherwise.

Also sandwich shops and snack vendors. Our favorite was a salami shop outside where you can sit and have a meat and cheese platter with wine or a meat-stuffed sandwich. Their name is not on the stand but you can find them from the picture. Be sure to try their orange pepper jelly too.

If you are serious about food, there is no other place to shop in a 20 mile radius…read more This is a gem. The shop is a farmer's market featuring mostly local produce, meats, cheese, wine from local producers. The ham that the lady carves by the front door is out of this world!!! There is a filling station where you can fill your containers with wine and pay by the liter. They also have a good selection of local wines, Chianti and all, raw milk, etc. And you'll leave this place with a nice fuzzy feeling that you helped the local farmers instead of some giant industrial food conglomerate, a plus.

I always love going to all the different markets when I travel and this one didn't disappoint…read more Fresh fruits, meats, cheese, fish, pastas, bakery items, side dishes, this market has it all plus many restaurants to try. It's always a pleasure to walk around and soak in the local experience. There are a number of places to eat and I would recommend 2 restaurants to try in the market. Balsamico e Cucina - Monari Federzoni & Da Sergio "Abruzzo e le sue meraviglie " both are good for lunch or an afternoon snack. Great place to purchase gifts for the people back home.

Hahaha - somehow the overall rating for this market is four and a half stars?! That's like giving…read moreheaven a 4.5 star rating! In my fantasies, I bicycle to this market every day for provisions, which I then cook in my beautiful apartment overlooking the square. In reality, we circled the market several times, wishing we each had three stomachs so we could try everything in sight. We did a tasting of balsamic vinegars at Monari Federzoni, led by a lovely and knowledgeable young lady who spoke excellent English. Then we ate delicious little meatballs glazed in balsamic with sweet and sour onions, and tortellini with parmesan cream, washed down with Lambrusco - a five star experience if I ever had one!

If I was going to rate it any lower it would be from the smell of truffles that seems to be ever-present these days in most food establishments in Italy. Pro-tip- The bar in the center of the joint has a bunch of Valentino Rossi paraphernalia, so this tells me that if you're ever in Florence when Moto GP is on, you might want to check this place out for a drink while the race is on. Might be a good time.
