Da quando ha aperto al posto di un negozio di vestiti non sono mai riuscito a entrarci. Ieri è stata la volta buona e credo di essere stato super fortunato. Suonavano gli "Strangefaces", una cover band della madonna con gli ACDC loro punto di forza. La gran musica pompata a dovere ha sicuramente contribuito al mio voto comunque positivo. Bell'arredamento "legnoso" e minimal q.b., barman (barwoman?) brava e veloce, disposizione dello spazio intelligente con un'area lontano sufficientemente dalla musica per chi vuole anche parlare senza sgolarsi. Il palco in vetrina poi credo sia la vera chicca. Della serie "volete sapere come suonano e cosa suonano? ENTRATE!"

This place is off the charts beautiful. The lake at sunset is something that cannot be missed. The…read moreservers are also very nice and pleasant and very helpful. The atmosphere cool and hip with electro-like music and an interesting ambiance. However, there are points in time during the day that sitting at the three tables closest to lake gets full of gnats and other bugs. There were swarms of gnats everywhere and it made it impossible to eat without getting a few bugs in a drink or on a plate. Even the 3 candles we had on our table did little to keep the bugs at bay. We were happily moved to a new table but found that our food wasn't all that great. The bread tasted like water and most of the dishes on the menu were vegetarian and lacked flavor.

Looking for a rocky concert or a themed party? This must be…read morethe place. During the years it has grown a reputation for packed parties and selected shows with bands coming from all over the world. It is now becoming the spot for festivals and new generation events. The place still looks like a Theatre, with the stage at then bottom and the dance floor completely downhill so be sure to wear your snickers or a pair of flat boots or you won't get through the night! They have now installed 2 bars, one on the dance floor, the other one is bigger and serves cocktails in addition to beer. I would like them to pay better attention to toilets conditions, that would definitely increase my opinion over the place.

The convent turned prison turned affordable housing, cafe, event space, and collaborative work space is truly a modern take on restoration and a great place to pass time, especially on a beautiful day. Whether you need a place to grab coffee with friends or crank out some work on your laptop, Le Murate will fit the bill. Check out their website for a list of events to enjoy if you really want to round out your experience.

The first time I popped by, I knew this would be "her" place. With both cozy indoor seating and a welcoming outdoor courtyard, there are plenty of tables for all. The cappuccini are delicious and affordable so there are many students here. We love the staff, too, who are patient while we try to get better at speaking in Italian. There is a stage for evening music events and there is also a food/alcohol menu. We hope to take advantage of both soon!

A box office is right outside the venue and distributes tickets for the upcoming events, whose prices depend on the shows, but usually 5 to 10 €. The place gives room to local bands as well as international ones, djs and students parties. It can also be rented. Overall it's a pretty popular venue for Florentines, very casual, there's a coat room (av. 2 € per piece), a cocktail bar offering regular beers and a few different cocktails (nothing too fancy) and a few sandwiches for late night cravings. Acoustic has always been a red mark and it has not improved in time, but concerts are still fun and not a bit pretentious. Be aware that parking around this area is almost forbidden unless you come early and lines for tickets are up to 45 min. outside (cold or hot weather doesn't matter).
