Wow, I was looking on Yelp for a bakery and the directions took me to a place that it was not…read morethere. So I figured I don't think it closed, but I just couldn't find it and I was walking. 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.

Located inside the mercato centrale and easy to locate, and you can't miss this spot. Next to the…read morepizza shop, this one got a lot of dessert items. We ordered strawberry trimasu and mango cake. Both tasted fantastic !!

This place was such a treat! A small shop where everything is gluten free and so close to the train…read morestation. Staff there spoke enough English for the transaction. I am mainly writing this review to encourage all my fellow celiacs/gluten intolerants to go here, get into the chest freezer right by the entrance, and grab the pain au chocolat (chocolate crossiant). I'm still dreaming about it weeks later. ;-; was so ridiculously scrumptious.

This shop is small but packed with gluten free treats. Everything in the bakery is gluten free…read moreincluding GF beer in the fridge. They have amazing croissants and little pies and cookies stuffed with Nutella. They also have slices of pizza and appetizer-like food that they can heat up in a toaster oven, however I would stick to the baked goods because you can get really good gluten free pizza, calzones and pasta at multiple restaurants within a few blocks of this bakery. They also sell bread and whole cakes but we only sampled 4 of their baked goods. It's a relief to have so many options when visiting a new city. If you're looking to save money by stocking up your hotel or apartment with breakfast foods, this is a great place to go. It was surprising how inexpensive the items were compared to what we pay for the luxury of a gluten free muffin in the U.S. There were GF donuts listed on the website, but we didn't see any in the afternoon, so my advice would be to stop by early if you want the opportunity to choose from everything this lovely bakery makes.

So we were headed to ZA ZA but the line to get in was around the block, so we looked at other…read morerestaurants in the square and found this gem. The place La Salmoneria, the food was simple but so Devine! The place is elegant, modern and classy. The staff are attentive, friendly, and informative on the preparation of the food. If you ask me this is the place everyone should be lining up for!!!

This place was great, we ordered pizzas, salmon, and calzones. The menu has a lot of salmon on it…read morebut it was probably some of the best salmon I've had. Service was quick and efficient (not so common to find in Europe) and the ambiance was nice with outdoor seating. (It was hard to get pictures of all the food since everyone ate it so fast).

Don't Miss This Café!…read more L'Incontro Cafe is the kind of family-run spot every traveler hopes to find. Incredible pastries, smooth coffee, fair prices, and owners who treat you like longtime friends. English-friendly, warm, and genuinely passionate about what they serve. Perfect location near Santa Maria Novella. If you're anywhere on Via Nazionale, go. This place is going to blow up -- catch it early.

Great Coffee and Great Prices…read more There's not much else that hasn't been said in other reviews. The pastries are great, and the coffee is great. It's not too far from the train station and it's a great choice for those on a budget, too. It's quiet, with some nice music playing in the background. The workers are friendly and personable. I cannot think of a single thing wrong with this place. It's one of the best coffee shops my wife and I have visited on our honeymoon.
