I studied abroad in Florence a few years ago, and I recommend this place to everyone who tells me they're visiting. I would literally go at least once a day, I'm not even exaggerating. I even made a TikTok video about it that went semi-viral. Every single flavor is amazing, but the ricotta pistachio stole my heart. The staff is also very sweet, which made the experience even better. I've tried a lot of gelato across Italy, and I still dream about this place. Nothing but positive vibes for this place. I simply cannot wait to go back!!
During my time in Firenze I made it my intention to try as many gelato spots as I could. Gelateria dei Neri came recommended, and since we had just finished dinner nearby we thought it was the perfect place to check out for dessert. dei Neri's setup is typical of most other gelaterias I visited; walking in we were immediately greeted by the display case with all the flavors, and they have a small seating area to the side in case you want to sit and enjoy your treat. I didn't want to overdo it so I went with one of the smaller sizes, and chose two flavors - the cream and the yogurt with cherries. The gelato was excellent, honestly some of the best I had while in Firenze. It was super creamy and full of flavor - especially the yogurt with cherries, I'm still thinking about it. Service was good, we were taken care of promptly and everyone was friendly. Overall, dei Neri is definitely worth checking out while in Firenze - next time I'm in the city I will be sure to return.
We found this gelateria based on rave reviews from a social media couple I kind-of-not-really-follow. The shop was just a few blocks from our hotel, which was a bonus, and open later, which was another bonus. It was also consistently packed. People at every table inside, people on the street outside, people crowding the door. That was a good sign for the quality of the gelato. Once inside we were able to see the array of flavors on offer, everything from the "normal" (chocolates and such) to the more creative (rice gelato, anyone?) The staff was friendly and efficient, even when they were being swarmed by groups of customers demanding a scoop of their finest gelato. We stopped in twice during our time in Firenze and both times enjoyed the flavors of the gelato and the friendliness of the staff.
There's many price points for their gelatos ranging from 2.50 Euros and up to 5 Euros (cone size) / 7 Euros (cup size). I think the amount of flavors you get depends on the size that you get. You can ask the staff to advise. We got and shared three different gelato flavors in the 3 Euros cup size: tiramisu, pistachio, and mango. We enjoyed the gelatos and the tiramisu was our least favorite since the rum flavor was a bit strong. Service was super quick during the time we went. There's a couple of tables and seats in the gelato shop and we got to enjoy our gelato treat inside. :)
My previous favorite gelato flavor: ricotta and fig. My new favorite gelato flavor: popcorn! I don't know how they come up with these unique flavors, but it I am perpetually amazed. The staff is super nice and doesn't get annoyed at indecisive tourists not knowing what to get. Psst, see above. There are even a few tables in the store where you can enjoy your gelato before they melt into a sticky mess in the summer heat.
Holy cow this gelateria is sooooo delicious and creamy! We went during night time and there was a small line out the door, but it was well worth the trek! And by that I mean just a short walk from our airbnb haha. No place to really sit down, but a good time to eat and take a stroll. Gelato: DELICIOUS! Creamy and sweet. I ordered the pistachio which I mean, you can't go wrong with pistachio gelato. Something about the dairy in Italy makes this whole thing better. The range in a variety of flavors including nondairy ones. Service: super helpful! We were tourists but they spoke basic English and helped us with ease. Everything was very straight forward.
Why 5 stars? Because I'm a broken record at this point, but it's gelato in Europe! --- --- --- My first 4 days of my European vacation were spent in Barcelona and Florence. Each night, I finished the evening with gelato. Each night, it was wonderful. Gelateria dei Neri was the grand finale. Not a ton separates any of the places I visited, to be honest. What stands out here were the flavors that were available. Cherry Mania and Ricotta were two of them and I snagged both. Neither disappointed. I will think of them fondly for all of my days.
My favorite gelato in Florence! I've returned to this gelateria every time I visit Florence! They have the most authentic assortment of flavors and truly fresh ingredients. The gelato is so creamy and soft, I dream of it. My favorite flavor is their Rice gelato (almost like a rice pudding flavor), however, it's seasonal. On my most recent visit I tried the following flavors: stracciatela, ricotta and fig, pistachio, egg cream, passion fruit, mango, and coconut. Heavenly!

Popped in for a quick gelato after dinner on a Thursday night around 10pm. The line was short, the service was friendly and the gelato was absolutely delicious. Hard to find back gelato in Italy, but my husband really loved their hazelnut and pistachio gelatos. read more

Pretty good gelato located near uffizi and other landmarks in the city. Very accessible and lots of room inside. Prices are also good and generous portions. The service is also very friendly and they have many flavors to choose from. My crema and pistachio flavors were good! Not the best I have had but very well done. Tried stracciatella as well and it was tasty as well. read more
Wow. I still dream about this place. This is the best gelato I have ever had in my life and I think it will be the best gelato I will ever have. I came here on a completely full stomach and order multiple cups of gelato. It is just that good. The cookies and cream gelato is probably the best thing to have existed. Please get it while you're here. I am so jealous of anyone that will get to experience this place for the first time I honestly wouldn't have minded if this was the last meal in life ever. Service is also amazing! They are super nice. And the place itself is cute although it is on the smaller side. Everyone and their mothers need to go to this place before they die read more

Tasty gelato! The line was outrageous in the afternoon, but we hit them on a different evening at a quarter to midnight and no line! I had a scoop of pistachio which was yummy. I skipped on the cone since I was still full from dinner. We were able to sit inside and things were super calm which was a nice change from a town completely overrun by tourists. I'd say the gelato is worth about a 5-10 minute wait tops, other than that - do away with your bed time and go much much later into the evening. read more

Incredible gelato, with standard and unique flavors. I had the salted caramel (burro salato) - amazing, the Ciccolato Grezio de Modica (chocolate with some crunchy chocolate chips) - really good, but my surprise favorite was the ricotta w/ figs (ricotta e fichi) - so creamy and flavorful, kind of like a strawberry cheesecake flavor. My daughter's cream one (like a mascarpone) was delicious, and so was my husband's pistachio. Our server was very patient while we decided. Totally recommend! read more
We kept hearing that Gelateria dei Neri is the best in Firenze. We finally stopped by and were disappointed. It was over hyped. All of the flavors (coconut, coffee, cherry and cookies n cream) were very sugary and didn't have the creamy or buttery flavor of a good gelateria. They were good but not the best that we have experienced. read more

Our favorite gelato in Florence after testing several. We had to hike out for this but totally worth it, and clear reason why there's always a line out the door. There are so many non traditional creative flavors to choose from. Personal favorites included yogurt with honey & walnuts and ricotta & fig. Though all 6 flavors we tried were good! Prices are still reasonable for the quality of the gelato. read more

This gelateria has nice seating inside, which many shops don't have, and is nice when you don't want your gelato to melt immediately. The rasberry was very fresh and the highly recommended ricotta with fig was pretty good, but not mindblowing. Worth trying if in the area, but not worth going out of your way to find. They also have a brioche option where you can choose two flavors of gelato, but the brioche seemed a bit stale. read more
