Full description

Caffè Gilli has served Florence since 1733 and is regarded as the city's oldest cafe, with wood-paneled Belle Epoque interiors and a covered terrace looking out over the piazza.

Reviews

We had the best breakfast served all day. You can have the lunch menu also at any time. Its extensive. Great surroundings and the pastry is amazing. Its been in Florence since 1733. Can't fault it. Its positioned beautifully in one of Florences big square. Can't be missed.
