I looked at the left and on the corner was this amazing little bakery that had all these fresh pastries? I had to try one I saw a couple people getting it. It was a cake that said melon cake. It looked like it had apple slices and was freshly baked. Some of the things are for the price itself and some of them they weigh items when they cut it. The cake was phenomenal. I am so glad I found this Bakery.

Loved the ladies at Dolce Lab & I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of each other (see note about the fact that I don't bake, ha!). The shop is adorable with plenty of seating to enjoy a cupcake or slice of cake (they have other treats too) with tea. They have a large table to seat at least 8, a cozy couch, bar along the wall up front & tables along the wall walking toward the back. So, bring your friends and enjoy this place. Maybe I'll see you there ;)

Let me be the weird girl here that did not like this place. I really am unhappy to be disappointed…read moreby a place I have been trying for more than one year to go to. Let's face it, my first criticism would be that they have unusual schedule here. My expectations have only been growing as I was failing to get in. But, finally, on a bright and particularly lucky Sunday, by a magical concordance of universal forces, I was able to enter for a brunch (last time i tried a brunch, it was open but no brunch was served that specific Sunday..). But then... I really ended up very disappointed by the food served. The 12€ brunch plate was composed of: first, an over cooked eggs with some tiny pieces of not very good quality smoked salmon (why not at least ask how people like the eggs to be cooked? anyway very few person would choose this over cooked version of an omelet). Second, a half cold very very bad croque monsieur, honestly closed to one you could buy on a highway stop: the bread was not toasted enough, the bechamel was not very good to say the least and again, half cold like this is not good! No. Then, the pancakes were ok, nothing special, nothing bad. But the jam was so common, I mean for a bakery you would expect a bit more taste. And overall, I found the portion a bit small. After this quite mediocre plate (not bad really, just not good at all), i decided to try the cupacke for which they are famous for. Well, it was an ok cupcake but nothing very good and special either. I even found it a bit dry. Last comment, there was absolutely no flexibility in changing the plate composition. You have to choose between 1- eggs, 2- pancakes (sweet or salted) and 3- "specialty of the day" which this particular day was the croque monsieur and a kind of flaky pastry filled with pesto (that is it, some flaky pastry + pesto - not anything more, that is it). So if you do not like eggs and wish to change this amazing omelet with this pesto dough, you are to be charged more, and not the brunch plate. I would understand if it were meat or fish or something elaborated, but dough ? and pesto ?? The difference was like 1€ so ok, who cares? Well it is not very important financially for sure but shows a lack of flexibility and niceness that I do not like a lot.

This review is long overdue for our visit back in November of 2024. I was looking up Nduja recipe…read moreand reminded myself this was the place that initiated my love for Nduja sauce. American/Aussie owned bakery brunch spot by the river, such a cute little eatery. We loved our visit and though it's definitely more of a touristy spot, as most customers spoke English, the food was delicious to forgo the tourist trappy vibes. We shared a plate and added some items as we didn't want to get too stuffed on our first day of Florence. We had the Nduja Eggs plate with bacon and avocado added. Nduja is a spicy Calabrian pepper spreadable pork sauce, and oh boy was it so flavorful. If I remembered correctly, Melaleuca spread this sauce on top of a fried bread and eggs. I don't see it on the menu at the moment and it's probably a rotatable dish... but it definitely kicked started my hunt for the sauce. Since this is a spreadable pork, it's not something I could bring back to the US but I was able to find it online back home. The service was amazing and the beverages were delicious. Like many Italian places, the dining room is small and bathroom is a single small room that might require a small wait if they're busy. Didn't get to try their baked goods this last time, but definitely on our list to go back for more when we're back to Florence for a visit.

I selected this bakery because it had good reviews and was only a couple blocks from my apartment. When I arrived at my friend's with an armload of Mama's goodies they said, "Oh, you went to the American bakery!" Me : Huh? I did? Of course I (an American) had somehow stumbled into probably the only American bakery in Florence. (To be fair, they may bake a lot of American style treats, but it is staffed and frequented by mostly locals. The cashier graciously went and found the one staff member who spoke English to help me. Very kind.) I had ordered about a dozen different items - cookies, brownies, pies - and we all had a great time sampling them after dinner. Every single one was absolutely delicious!
