📖

Full description

Caffè Rainer is a small pastry-focused cafe where reviewers call the viennoiserie the best in Florence, naming a pistachio pain au chocolat and the canelés as standouts. The coffee and the efficient, friendly staff get consistent mention, and guests staying at a nearby hostel describe making it their daily morning stop.

A note from one visitor: the front door sticks, so it takes a little effort to get inside. It opens at 8:00 on Saturdays and is closed on Mondays, and works well for couples and solo visitors after a quality pastry and coffee.

Reviews

Easily the best viennoiserie pastries in Florence. The pistachio pain-au-chocolate was fantastic, the plain all butter was a little dense but still better than any other I've had here.
