Mercato Centrale Firenze

Florence, Italy

About Mercato Centrale Firenze

Florence's 1874 cast-iron central market — the ground floor has been a fresh food market for 150 years (the best lampredotto sandwiches in the city are sold here); the upper floor was transformed into a food hall with 30 gourmet stalls. The combination makes it the best food destination in Florence.

More Food & Drink in Florence

🍜

Trattoria Mario Florence

The most famous lunch-only trattoria in Florence — communal tables, paper menus, and a daily-changing menu of honest Tuscan cooking that has changed barely at all since 1953. The ribollita, the pappardelle with wild boar, and the bistecca are all revelatory. Queue outside from 11:45am.

🍜

Enoteca Pinchiorri Florence

Italy's most decorated restaurant — three Michelin stars, the world's greatest Italian wine cellar (100,000 bottles), and a Renaissance palazzo setting. Giorgio Pinchiorri and Annie Féolde have been the definitive influence on Italian fine dining for 40 years.

🍜

Buca dell'Orafo Firenze

A historic Florentine trattoria beneath the Ponte Vecchio in the goldsmiths' district — low-vaulted ceilings, white tablecloths, and a menu of Florentine classics (bistecca Fiorentina, ribollita, pappa al pomodoro) prepared by a kitchen that has been here since 1946.
