My time at shake cafe was overall very mid, I ordered the spicy wrap and the active breeze smoothie. Now I can't deny that my smoothie was very yummy--however the food on the other hand was very un-flavorful. I came with a few of my friends and their food also seemed to have little to no flavor. If you want to come here I'd suggest only ordering a drink or pastry. read more

Wanted something to contrast the pizza and pasta I've been dining on the past few days and this was perfect! I opted for an açaí bowl and it was delicious! Plan on coming back to try their savory vegan options! read more

Wonderful menu alternatives to traditional Italian cuisine. Just what my body needed. Had a salad with chicken. Plan to eat there again tomorrow. read more

The Açaí!! Is so good! The nuts added are a great extra crunch. I love the fact that they use all natural ingredients! The açaí was more on the yogurt smoothie style than traditional açaí, but it was well priced 9 euros, and I will come back! read more

LOVE SHAKE great smoothie bowls for a great price!! Servers are so nice and it has become a regular place to visit while studying abroad in Florence! read more

the staff was very rude. especially the girl with the short brown hair at the main location. she refused to serve the customers for over fifteen minutes. she kept looking at everyone smirking and then turning away and making fun of us in italian. other staff completely ignored the line of customers as well. i was excited to get food here because the smoothie are supposed to be very good. the wait was over 20 minutes for drinks. overall unprofessional, expensive, and disappointing. don't go here. many other local places that aren't chains that have exceptional service read more

Ordered the Acai bowl and the bagel with peanut butter. They were both very tasty and filling. Presentation was really nice and both came with strawberries and banana. Staff was really friendly and service was fast. Great breakfast spot. read more

Wonderful experience in this cafe/restaurant. We went in the morning for coffee and we where surprised, they offer good coffee at good price. Medium americano is like 250cc (8.45oz). Besides that, there's also vegan milk and vegan croissants. Saw the menu (photos attached) and decided to have early lunch before leaving the city, my mom ordered a classic English brunch and I asked for the vegan brunch plate which was delicious, good quantity and quality. The fresh apple juice was sweeter than expected so consider that when ordering. The place doesn't have table service, everything is almost self-service (there is a computer where you present a card and then order and it gives you the thing that notifies you when is ready to go for your food and later, give the card to the cashier and you'll be charged) Plus: clean bathroom and very enjoyable local read more

Smoothie was more like a juice and was not thick and became watery, muffins were not good- they tasted like they were packaged. :/

Originally was super excited to go here because I've heard good things but the minute we walked in, the workers were extremely rude to us. The red head especially. When we were ordering smoothie bowls and speaking in Italian she made fun of us and told us "just stop I have no idea what you are saying" and laughed in our face. The smoothie bowls weren't even good and we left still hungry. The workers were so unbelievably rude that we felt uncomfortable so we left. This place is overhyped and not worth the money for a crappy smoothie bowl and horrible service. read more

Randomly stumbled upon this little hole in the wall gem while wandering the streets of Florence. This spot is very tiny, but they also own the location next door which serves as their main take-away counter. There are very few seats in this location, but a lot of their food can be taken to go. After six days in Italy and only drinking espresso, I was beyond excited to finally see a matcha latte with non-dairy milks on the menu (!!!!). It was the matcha latte I didn't know I needed. They offer a wide variety of health foods like açaí bowls, veggie/salad bowls, smoothies, and juices. They also had a bunch of pastries - a lot of which were vegan including banana bread, croissants, and cakes! My partner caved and got a slice of lemon poppy bread which he said hit the spot perfectly and was incredibly moist. He was also really excited to find cold brew. The service was super quick and the employees were all friendly. Not your typical Italian food, but after a lot of pasta and pizza eating, I was very happy to have found this place! read more

An absolutely amazing açai bowl with equally great coffee! Quick and easy breakfast on the go!

So good, had it twice. Healthy options with more modern American, modern vibes. Small cafe shop, complete with smoothies, coffee and elixirs of life after a night of drinking or carb overload. Their wraps are light and tasty, turkey wrap is especially savory. read more

One of my favorite places we ate at in Florence! So fresh and delicious. Loved the vegan options!

Absolutely delicious food options, but service could be a little quicker. Overall loved the vibe

Hubs needed his daily dose of coffee, so we happened to come by Shake Cafe. We got him a large cappuccino, and I got a matcha latte. It was, by far, one of the worst matcha lattes I've ever had lol. Tasted like I was drinking straight milk with a bit of flavor and ice. Definitely needed a lot more matcha (and I don't even LIKE matcha that much). On the plus side, they have a seating area with free wi-fi...so...there's that. Poor hubs had to drink his large coffee and a significant portion of my matcha latte (that they didn't even fill up all the way) lol. Ah well... read more

If you want an açai bowl in Florence, come here!! Very refreshing, nice staff. Best vegan chocolate chip banana bread we've ever had! A good change to all the pasta. Many milk alternative options (oat, soy, almond). Many vegan options!! read more

This little point café is a vegan vegetarian or help food conscious foodie find. Nestled in the strengths of Florence Italy they have a small but great variety on their menu they have six different salads that include green bean salad tofu marinade a wonderful sweet potato salad spicy kale and a Cesar. They also have several different wraps and they specialize in fresh made juices as well as several different super smoothies their prices are excellent range anywhere from 6 to 8 dollars and all of their iced coffee's as well as lattes are under four dollars each. Considering there are so many restaurants here with heavy pastas and various meat options this was a great find. Ironically they have two of the same stores right next to each other I didn't quite figure out why that is but the business is basically split in two locations right next-door to each other. read more

An oasis of healthy, American food in Italy. If you are craving something a little better for your body, this will do the trick. I visited a couple times and have to say it was a welcome break! They have a ton of fresh pressed juices (Velvet Beets!), a variety of smoothies, coffee drinks, and a full menu of bowls and sandwiches. My only complaint was the cold brew. Wasn't the best, but hey, after two weeks of espresso, it still hit the spot :) read more

Stumbled upon this gem when I got lost walking around the city one day. I got a lemon ginger and cayenne pepper shot. It hit the spot! As an active girl from Southern California, I needed a break from all the pizza and pasta. Today I ordered a spicy fajita wrap and I could taste all the freshness. This place has so many healthy options. I'm in love with it! Will be back to try more of the menu. read more

Very small but very cute little cafe. Can't really say much about it since the only thing I got was a croissant. The croissant was flakey, sweet and soft. So it was a good croissant. Compared to some other cafes this one is a hint more expensive (my croissant cost 0.20 more). So would I come in again to get a croissant? Probably not since i could get a cheaper one that tastes the same somewhere else. But if i was getting a juice or something more original then I would come back. read more

Although I love pizza and pasta, I definitely some wholesome veggie meals and I absolutely love Shake Cafe. I've been almost 3 times this week alone. While they are a bit pricey, I'm willing to splurge to get fresh salads/wraps/smoothies and other fresh baked goods. read more

The cocomama shake was so good! Not too sweet, and very refreshing. Makes for the perfect snack to go. read more

Love all the shake restaurants. They are consistently good and healthy options. I usually get the super green shake, spicy fajita wrap or lentil salad. Always made the way I like it!! There also many other options but I tend to stick to what I like. For instance, they have sandwiches and croissants that are prepared which is great if you want to grab something very fast. The rest of the item take less than 5 to 10 mins to make. There are there that I know of that are all in good areas around he city center. I would suggest any of them. The only complaints I have which apply to all is that the cashiers are also waitresses do I see them handle both the food and cash which I find gross since they don't wash their hands in between! Also if the restaurant is busy it's take a while since there generally is only 2 or 3 people working and the restaurant is fairly small so gets crowded Bottom line..come here or any of the other shake cafes for a healthy and delicious meal. The staff are generally friendly and the food options are always consistently good. Also they are all in good locations as well Pros Great healthy options from shakes, sandwiches to salads Great location Friendly staff Cons Cashiers are also waitresses and don't wash their hands better handling cash and food :/ read more

This place is the best and all the people that work here are the best. Rachele is the nicest cashier/ barista I've ever met.

I stopped in here for a smoothie but their other offerings of wraps, bowls and the like look good too. The smoothie (yogurt, blueberry, coconut, honey & banana) was good but was lukewarm when I expected something cold. The staff seemed overworked and a little disorganized but were pleasant enough - felt bad they had to deal with some rude, needy tourists ahead of me. read more

Love love love this place. Staff is super friendly and ingredients are actually super fresh. It's such a refreshing break from the pasta and pizza in Italy. I come here every day and don't get sick of it because the options are endless. If your ever craving a juice, smoothie, wrap, or excellent make ur own salad. COME HERE! read more

This wonderfully decorated, modern, and surprisingly hole in the wall cafe was one of our best eating experiences in Florence. The cafe poses as a tiny juice bar and we had actually entered it to quench our thirsts but just by walking a few steps forward, we found out that there is an entire restaurant associated with the Cafe and we were right on time for brunch! We were lucky because it was a relatively slow day and the waiters served us our food, but usually the cafe is a self-order, self-serve, and self-cleanup facility (like a high-end cafeteria) something the locals already seemed to know. I ordered the vegan bagel and the Detox juice, both of which were tasty and filling and very healthy at the same time! I would definitely visit this café again if I visit Florence again, especially to try an assortment of the vegan pastries they offer. read more

Good cappuccino to go. Available in 3 sizes for takeout. Medium size was 2.50€ - a steal!

One of the best options in Florence for healthier food. I'm not a huge fan of the smoothies, but the wraps are really great, and the ambience do the bigger restaurant is very nice read more

I was having a hard time finding vegan breakfast food until I came to Shake Cafe. They had a few vegan pastries to choose from, including the jelly croissant I decided on. I also got a delicious smoothy. Perfect place to start the day. read more

Delicious and just what I needed after pizza and pasta every day. The juices and açaí bowls are bomb

I was excited to try Shake's smoothie bowls after seeing them on a friend's Instagram story, but, unfortunately, they were quite disappointing. I ordered an acai bowl and a chia bowl and thought it was cool that they let me choose my own unlimited toppings. The bowls came out fast, which was impressive, but they tasted bland and were not worth the money. One of them was way too sour and had chunks of ice all through it. The other was a little better, but still had almost no flavor. What saved our meal, however, was the avocado toast. It was to die for! I noticed that most people were ordering it, and for good reason. It was huge, flavorful, and topped with a fried egg. It also came with a hearty bed of greens. If I go back to Shake, I'll definitely get that again! read more

The juices and smoothies were tasty and the workers were accommodating. Went here twice during our stay in Florence and enjoyed the vegan chocolate croissant and vegan wrap. The second time we visited Shake Cafè the service was slow because our order was not received by the kitchen. Other than that, Shake Cafè was a nice spot in Florence for a light meal. read more
