Things To Do
All’Antico Vinaio
We have been to Florence twice and to this sandwich shop five times. It's that good. Don't be overwhelmed by the lines, they move quickly, and the wait is well worth it. Grab any of the sandwiches and take a seat on the street and enjoy!
Ponte Vecchio
We got engaged right in the middle of this bridge, and then two years later, bought our wedding bands at one of the jewelry shops on this bridge. You will cross this bridge several times as you explore Florence, but take time to check out the stunning views of the city from the center point.
La Cité
We were introduced to this bar by our friends Caroline and Jackson and loved it. With great wine, good pastries, and books everywhere, it makes for a lovely and chill night.
Gucci Giardino
Dip in for a quick afternoon cocktail or espresso at the Gucci Giardino cafe. The outside seating area is absolutely stunning and we love the Gucci espresso cups!
Mercato del Porcellino
Also known as the Market of the Little Pig, you have to go and touch the brass pig! This is one of the several spots where Ethan tried to propose to Allyson but she was just running amok. During the day, it's a bustling market where you can find jewelry, scarves, and leather goods. And at night, there is often live music being played in the street - perfect for a nighttime dance.
Vinaino Fiorenza
It took us a while to stumble back upon this small wine shop, but it was serendipitous when we did the night we got engaged. Order a glass of wine and sit inside, or grab a to go cup and continue your strolls through Florence.
Osteria dell'Enoteca
If you're looking for an incredible Florentine steak, you may find several, but this is the one we recommend most in the city.
