Awesome!! Vegan bakery

This vegan raw bakery was introduced to me while on a vegan food tour. It was amazing. We had the salted caramel tart, the crudottos, and the pecan biscuits with a couple of oat milk lattes. Highly recommend if you’re in Florence.

Pros: All raw and vegan

Delicious gelato

Delicious raw vegan gelato ! Great staff ! Nice view on Santa Maria Novella. I would love to have this at home and to enjoy long forgotten tastes such as their incredible giuandia!

Amazing gelato

After a while of traveling in Italy and having only fruit options for gelato, this place offered all the flavors I always wished for 😅. They are nice and have a great location. We came here twice during our stay!

best almond milk I’ve had and amazing cakes

We went here on our last day in Florence and I’m so happy that I came across this place. Amazing atmosphere and the pistachio caramel tart was amazing. I’ve never had anything like it. This a great place to have you morning coffee alone or together with others. The staff was very friendly.

Although it was more on the expensive side, the price was totally worth it!

Delicious

I got the salted caramel and pistachio tart. Though it was a bit expensive it was worth it as it was very nice and the perfect size as quite rich and we had a great view from our seats outside the café

Must try mango cheese cake - raw & vegan

Pistachio ice cream is not the best I have tried in Florence but mango cheese cake is one of the very best I have ever tasted 😃

Patisserie fürs Auge

Leckerer Cappuccino mit selbstgemachter Mandelmilch. Auch die Törtchen und Desserts sehr lecker und vor allem toll angerichtet - aber verhältnismäßig teuer. Eher etwas zum Genießen als zum Satt werden.

We got obsessed with this place

We’ve been there everyday of our stay in Florence.
The staff is friendly and the menu is great. They make their own fresh almond milk everyday and the iced coffe we tried was bomb. I highly recommend their ice cream ( especially the combo salted cashew/pistachio) and their tiramisù. They also make juice with fresh fruit.

Consigliatissimo!

Posto perfetto per viziarsi un po’ con dei dolci buonissimi in un contesto molto bello in piazza Santa Maria Novella. Ci sono stata più volte e ho provato varie cose, il mio preferito è il tortino vegan raw alla crema! Davvero Wow!

Pros: Dolci vegan raw strepitosi, Location ricercata

Great coffee and incredible desserts.

A very stylish little coffe shop at the corner of piazza Santa Maria Novella. The service is very nice and speaks great english and a little german.

The coffee is cheap compared to Austria and the sweets are incredibly tasty. For a sweettooth like me they were to small. All in all a great experience.

Pros: All vegan, Incredibly tasty desserts, Great service

Cons: Desserts on the small side

Lovely spot, but…

you get an coffee for 1,50 BUT: if you stay there and they do table service you pay 3,50. they don’t tell you about that and this feels like a tourist trap for me. Sorry. Won’t come back

VitoCortese

Yes please, don't come back, because if you think a 2€ charge for a table in a Museum Café in Florence where you were sitting for an hour with service, air conditioning, comfortable and clean space is a tourist trap, probably you are not aware of our effort to make it available and all the cost this needs, you don't deserve it.
If you come and respect our job, space and service, you are very welcome 😊

Foodyhutt

It’s not about that I‘m not aware of the effort, this is not the point. It’s how you communicate this fact with your customers. I‘m more than happy to pay more, if this is communicate in an transparent way, but it isn’t really.

High end vegan patisserie

I visited this place before a visit to the Museo del 900 next door. I had a coffee and a delicious salted caramel and pistachio chocolate tart. The patisserie is so good that after the visit I had to go back for more and had a sacher. Top quality and very creative!

Very RAW, cant eat much, for certain people

I’ve had raw vegan foods before, but these ones are quite strong in their flavors. Lots of them are made with strong, raw chocolate products. Which after a bite or two is hard to finish. So its understandable why the sizes are small and the prices are high. This is an all raw, vegan place - so if you’re not a raw food fan you may not like. The pot of tea was good and helped to get the bitter chocolate down.
I do also wish the desserts with orange in them had a stronger orange flavor, the chocolate over powered everything!

Pros: Staff speak great english, Has indoor seating and a bathroom

Cons: Expensive, A bit strong in chocolate

I am sorry but what you are saying is not correct, most of my clients are not raw food fan and they love it. The dessert you tried probably is the Sacher and it has a apricot and orange filling, that's why the orange flavor is not that strong and by the way the sacher is one of our best seller.

Probably you are not a chocolate lover, so I don't understand why you had to judge the café so bad. This is your personal taste that has nothing to do with judging a place that offers the best organic quality ingredients mixed in a very balance flavor
