About Caffè Gilli Firenze

Florence's oldest café, open since 1733 — a Belle Époque room on Piazza della Repubblica with a legendary pastry counter, extraordinary hot chocolate, and the most beautiful interior of any café in the city. The morning cornetto-and-cappuccino routine here is quintessentially Florentine.
