    Inside
    Christopher S.

    For drinks and aperitivo this is a good spot. Drinks are €10 as of May '24 and well made. Staff is also nice here as well. Inside is clean and well sorted. Supposedly they are one of the inventors of Negroni, which was quite good, so I will give them that. Spritz was also good. Would come back for drinks and possibly food. They also have pastries and espresso.

    Steamed lasagne

    The dinner we had was incredible! I had a steamed lasagna with truffles. Usually lasagna can be heavy but this version was considerably less heavy and was delicious. Our family and friends all had different dishes and we tasted them all. We did not have expect to have such good food in a central tourist spot such as this!

    Fruit tart

    I just drank the BEST hot chocolate and ate the silkiest fruit creme tart I have ever had in my life! Incredible! I highly recommend to indulge and sit and watch the world go by!

    Italian Breakfast for €22
    Lucila P.

    Beautifully appointed cafe with outdoor seating perfect for people watching on the Piazza della Signoria. They have open seating and invite you to sit wherever you'd like, however some servers were clearly and audibly upset about their tables being taken by small parties. The food was ok, for €22 you can probably find a better breakfast, but you are paying for the location so why not!

    This place is so fun. The seats are pink and the waiting staff are all full of life. We only went for drinks and dessert and I think it's so worth it to go..we went twice in 2 days haha.

    The menu is wonderful and full of variety! The location absolutely perfect and the ambience unique yet enjoyable! There is plenty of seating and a good selection of snacks, food, desserts and drinks! The prices are reasonable but the service is quite slow. We had to ask to check and see if we order up front twice and then we had a server sent our way after 20-30 mins of waiting. Other than the long wait this was a lovely little stop along the way on a rainy day in Florence!

    Pastries - my favorite was the Millefoglie
    Alessandra O.

    The views from this cafe are priceless and the cappuccino and pastries are absolutely delicious ! We stopped here for a late morning breakfast and had to try three different pastries as we couldn't resist! We enjoyed the millefoglie with the crema filling (Italian custard), the apple tarts and the baba au rum and not a crumb left in our plate. We also purchased a bag of their hazelnut biscotti to take home - can't wait to try them!

    Was in Florence and had to go try the hot chocolate, and Rivoire was highly recommended as the #1 spot in Florence for it. We went in just for the hot chocolate, and it was really good! The atmosphere and environment is really nice and cute, and the servers were all in uniform and very friendly as well. This is a great place to check out, and very much recommended.

    What a view of the palacio becchio, where you can enjoy a drink and some appetizers after walk of around the city. Service was good, drinks were good, but location is pretty hard to beat

    View and Service is why you sit at Rivoire, not ham or turkey sammiches for €35 for two. Food is almost worthless, unless you get dessert which is the specialty of the house. We had a great time

    I had to find out if this was the best hot chocolate in the world. Definitely a contender, much more research needed to confirm. Definitely one of the top three hot chocolates I've ever had, very rich and sweet but not too sweet. I loved the ambience, the jazz music playing, the wonderful hostess in the front. The waiters were amazing with their starched white uniforms, they must've been hot (it was 89degreesF!) , but they were so gracious and kind. I got the chocolate and it was wonderful from the case. My salad was crisp and delicious with perfect amount of dressing-I got the fourth one Tuna with white beans. I extended my trip just to come and visit here and I'm happy I did. A true gem in Florence, I do recommend.

    Tourist trap. As soon as we asked for the bill they were nothing but rude. Not even a goodbye or thank you.

    Lady working the front desk was extremely rude. Do not go here. Food is terrible and service was incredulously long.

    Caffetteria Piansa - La miglior miscela di caffe' finalmente in via Gioberti

    I give these guys a solid 5 stars. Now that I have moved back to this neighborhood, my morning…read morecoffee stop is without a doubt Piansa - which is a fairly new shop. I call it "coffee with the newsies". Always greeted with a smile from either a groovy pair of glasses or a couple friendly guys with newsboy caps. It's definitely hipster and the decor reminds me of a cosy brooklyn coffee shop. My kinda place. I have become a regular and I might add that the coffee is quite good as I take my espresso senza zucchero (without sugar) so I really experience the taste of every coffee i drink and this coffee is smooth! They also have a lovely selection of morning pastries. Yesterday I finally stopped with a friend for aperativo. Good move. We had some nice apero spritz and they brought us a charcuterie tray. We had some fun conversation with the newsies and were asked to sign their espresso machine. Christened as regulars!! Great way to start out our night. Of course I have already been back today for my morning coffee.

    Really cute cafe just a little ways from the amazing bakery up the street. The baristas are well…read moremannered and snappy and the espresso very clean, creamy and light. My espresso was out in a minute after ordering, and I shot mine down with some Italians from the neighborhood. There isn't quite enough room at the bar to drink, but if you sit down you'll be charged a fee, so the cafe is best if you're looking for a quick espresso, unless you plan on staying there long term and sitting down to eat, read, relax. It was fairly quiet in the cafe, so it'd make for a good place to work or catch up with a friend.
