"This family-run bakery has been making cantucci ( what you might know as biscotti) for decades. The clan's patriarch, Roberto, mixes and rolls everything by hand in the back, using a recipe that he knows by heart—ask, and hewill happilyshow you the original recipe, now splattered with egg whites and cocoa. Roberto's delicate cantucci are far from the tooth-cracking kind sold at manyplaces. If you are really lucky, a fresh batch of the dark-chocolate-and-pistachio variety may have just been pulled out of the oven when you arrive."
This place serves a lot of locals and it is a never ending rotating door of patrons coming in. The theme/style is a 50s canteen bakery. We love the 'kitchen' seating at the back. A cappuccino is €1.5, large size is €1.6, pistachio cream croissant is €2, the custard nuts pastry is €1.5, cappuccino with ginseng is €1.8. The staff is super efficient and courteous.
Overall, we really enjoyed the atmosphere and food. Highly recommend this place!

Wonderful and delicious bakery in Florence that is off the beaten path! We stumbled across this bakery during our first trip to Florence and fell in love! The tiramisu and everything else we had was to die for! The two women working were so friendly and kind… we are even planning to go back tomorrow morning! Do not hesitate… go here for delicious pastries with very reasonable prices and a true authentic experience of a Tuscan bakery!

The pastries and coffee were delicious. The women behind the counter the day we visited were all delightful and friendly. There’s seating both inside and outside.

Amazing neighbourhood Pasticceria. Cheap and cheerful cups of coffee, with a wide selection of freshly baked pastries. I already miss the taste of the chocolate bigne :')

Wonderful pastry shop! This is a very typical Italian bakery. They have something for everyone and the quality is great and well priced. The back seating area is so homey and welcoming.

I visited in the morning and was warmly welcomed by two very kind staff members. However, another staff member who spoke good English came across as quite unfriendly. If you’ve been there, you’ll probably know who I’m talking about.
That said, I really liked the upbeat and lively atmosphere overall.

Ahh so yummy. The croissant with ham and cheese and croissant with custard is so heavenly. The coffee is so good here too, this is what I call a breakfast. Service is kind

A great pasticheria almost in the heart of the city. A great selection of very tasty desserts, helpful and friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere of a family business with tradition. If you visit Florence, we can definitely recommend it.
