    The only REAL gelato I had in Italy! Every other place is tourist trap: this gelato is kept in deep metal tins, and is so creamy. 10/10!!! Flavors were all amazing too.

    Best gelato in Florence! The flavors are creative and delicious! The staff is friendly and the shop itself is cute!

    This was my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE gelato place we ate at in our entire 2 weeks in Italy, in all the cities we visited, from Bologna to the Amalfi coast. Walking up, there was a fairly long line but it only took about 20 min from us to have gelato in our hands from entering the queue by the photo booth around the corner. The inside of this place is decorated really cutely, with a shocking amount of seating inside. They have the metal container with a lid type of system (not the huge brightly colored mounds) so I had in inkling this place would be good. You do the came thing as other places, where you pay for the size you want and then come to pick your flavors. The people working here are friendly and super quick and efficient with scooping. I got the salted caramel gelato (caramello) with mulberry sorbet (gelso). This was actual heaven. I will dream about the salted caramel for the rest of my life, it was that good.

    Delicious gelato recommended by our Airbnb host. There was quite a long line to get in, but it was worth it! Medium cup was 4 euros. Unique flavors. Highly recommend!!

    The best gelato place we ended up trying out of all the cities we visited (Venice, Cinque Terre, Pisa, Florence). Sbrino checked all the boxes: metal tins with lids to store the gelato and maintain temperature, flat spatulas to scoop the flavors, natural-looking colors, and seasonal flavors. This place was recommended by someone we met who was studying abroad here. The flavors are listed in Italian outside, but if you go inside, they have English translations for the flavors as well. So many interesting flavors to try! I ended up splurging for the three scoops in a cone since there were so many flavors I wanted to try. They had bacio (hazelnut/chocolate), malaga (vanilla & wine; kind of like a rum & raisin flavor), and vanilla bourbon. So good! Very flavorful and silky and smooth texture. This was definitely one of the best (if not THE best) gelato places in Florence. It's conveniently located in the San Spirito district where a lot of the major tourist attractions are (although this was away from all the crazy crowds), so no excuse not to stop by here if you are visiting! Only wish we had discovered this place sooner!

    Only gelato I have ever had with chunks of cookies in it instead of on top. Amazing flavor and consistency. I wish I had come here every night for my trip. There wasn't a long line or many people stopping by so the service was quick. You can't see the gelato so ask to try it if you are unsure.

    The gelato here is G-R-E-A-T. They have multiple locations in Florence (Italy), but I just happened to be close to this one and visited more than once. It was way better than Perche No. You can get a cone or cup for the same price of 3.50 euros. One scoop can be split into two flavors. Pistachio is a really popular one. During my first visit, they ran out of pistachio and the lady in line behind me got really upset. They said it would take a while for them to remake more. There were 3-4 people working at the time, so they could help 3-4 parties at a time. It's a tiny space inside. I say their best flavors are speculoos and salted caramel. Enjoy!!

    This was an amazing little gelateria right by the pitti palazzo. It was the perfect cold treat during the heat of midday. It had a bit of a line but went by very quickly, and was quite reasonably priced. The variety of flavor options was extensive with basics like dark chocolate to pumpkin seed to pear with chocolate chip. The flavor was rich and delicious, with the hazelnut having bits of nuts to add a little crunch to smooth texture. The dark chocolate tasted like a rich chocolate pudding. My girlfriend says the salted caramel was the best she ever had with a salty aftertaste- every salted caramel lover's dream. Also the portions were very good with each scoop being generous. They had quite an assortment of baked goods as well, which looked delicious and unique. After an exhausting walk in the Boboli Gardens this was the perfect afterstop.

    BEST GELATO WE HAD IN ITALY. Seriously, not only was the texture and the feel amazing, the flavors were like mini explosions in my mouth. They had so many unique options as well! The Pistachio was the best we've ever tried.

    The best gelato in Florence!! I wish I discovered it sooner than my last week here the mint lime flavor is so amazing and my sister still dreams of it haha! This place is underrated and so well priced! Not a tourist trap and so worth going to! HIGHLY recommend coming here if you're in Florence!

    Incredibly tasty! Best gelato we've had in Florence.. I loved the coconut and salted caramel flavors most:)

    Mahesh P.

    Maybe the best gelato in FIrenze. Yes, i know, that is saying a lot. But I stand by my statement. The consistency/texture/ingredients are - as with most good gelaterie here - exceptional. It's the flavors that kick it over the top - dead accurate, and somehow redolent of the *essence* of whatever it is that you're having. I, literally, can't recommend this place any higher - if you can, go.

I made it my…read moreintention to try as much gelato as I could in the city so when we had some down time post-lunch we thought that a little sweet would hit the spot. To be transparent, one of the things that drew me to La Strega was the name, I wanted to see what was so witchy about this gelato - and of course the positive reviews helped. The gelateria itself was lovely - soft music playing with intricate decor and a good amount of space. There were a few chairs and stools in case you wanted to sit and enjoy, though they were a little awkwardly placed. There were several flavors of gelato as expected - instead of being on display they were in tubs covered in lids. I heard that's the "proper" way to store gelato as it remains fresher, though the jury is still out for me on that one. Anyway, I got the smallest cup size where I was able to choose two flavors - so I went with the cream and the chestnut. The gelato was really good - creamy with great flavor. Service was great, and overall this was a solid gelateria - La Strega is definitely worth stopping into when in Firenze.

In terms of the affogato, it's not worth the long lines. Tasted fine for the average coffee or gelato person. But if you like your coffee bold with deep characteristics, you might be disappointed as the massive rush tends to dilute the coffee draw by the barista. Espressos are not as rich. In addition, don't think their beans are of quality either. Collectively, it tasted fine as a combo, just not worth the heat, wait, and crowd. If you enjoy a lively pool of people with concert like ambience, this might be up your alley along with social media posting. Lower that expectation and you'll enjoy the vibe. FYI, they do not serve you through the window. You can do it yourself but that's putting you on the spot on why you are there.
