Coronas Cafe: Your Must-Visit Destination in the Heart of Florence

Nestled in the vibrant streets of Florence, on Via dei Calzaiuoli, Coronas Cafe is more than just a cafe; it's a cherished local gem that perfectly embodies the Italian coffee culture. Whether you’re stopping for that essential morning espresso, indulging in a sweet gelato, or treating yourself to a delectable pastry, this cafe offers a delightful experience that leaves a lasting impression.

Walk past the charming facade, and you'll be welcomed by friendly faces eager to provide you with fast and courteous service. The menu is a haven for coffee lovers and sweet tooths alike, featuring rich espresso that many patrons rave about, along with a selection of pastries that highlight the artistry of Italian baking. Be sure to try the beloved brioche filled with creamy custard—at just 1.5 euros, it’s both a treat and an exceptional value, as highlighted by a satisfied customer: “Good espresso and pastries... that yum!”

But the real star here is the gelato. As one customer, Samantha Platt, enthusiastically described, the raspberry gelato is sublime, infused with real fruit pieces that offer a burst of authentic flavor with every bite. Here, gelato lovers can experience two different flavors, thanks to the attentive staff who ensure everyone gets to taste the exquisite offerings they have on hand. With a focus on high quality and deliciousness, as noted by Justin S, you’re sure to find something that tempts your taste buds.

Aside from the mouthwatering treats, the cafe provides a cozy atmosphere perfect for a short getaway from the bustling tourist crowds of Florence. While seating may be limited, many visitors enjoy standing at the bar, sipping their coffee, chatting with friends, or simply indulging in a sweet moment of solitude. Located close to the iconic Cathedral of Florence, it’s an ideal pit stop whether you're exploring the city or seeking refuge from an unexpected rain shower.

And for those seeking a little more vibrancy, as Amin Yeshed recounts, Coronas Cafe also boasts an ambiance that can transform into a lively space where people come together for fun and shared experiences. While the focus remains on delicious food and drinks, it’s not uncommon to encounter the spirit of joy that envelops the cafe.

So, if you find yourself wandering the charming streets of Florence, be sure to make your way to Coronas Cafe. With a fusion of stunning flavors, friendly service, and a delightful atmosphere, it promises to be a highlight of your culinary journey in Italy!

Fast service, friendly, and polite. Good espresso and pastries ( a little bit expensive for some pastries, but there is brioche that 1.5euro with full crema pasticcerà inside that yum)

Absolutely amazing gelato! I ordered a raspberry single cone and it was sublime with pieces of raspberry. You could taste the fruit. Our waiter gave my husband a taste of two different pistachio gelatos as he couldn't decide, which was so lovely of him. We sheltered here out of the rain and enjoyed our afternoon sweet treat so much. Highly recommended

This is my favorite little shop in the touristy area of Florence (about a block away from Piazza della Repubblica). It has gelato, espresso/coffee-drinks/full bar with wine/patisseries/sandwiches. All very high quality and delicious. If you don't know what your want, come here and see what looks tasty! If you know exactly what you want, thru probably have it or can make it here!

Some of the best gelato we had in Italy - and we had a lot. Enjoyed it at one of the few inside tables.The employees were friendly and very professional.

Lovely cafe with rich coffee and tasty pastry. Their signature with sugar on top and decadent custard filling really hit the spot. A chaser of sparkling mineral water is always a nice touch after your coffee. Friendly courteous service. Not many spots inside to sit down but you can still stand at the bar. Great location close to Cathedral. Great breakfast!

Well fk me.. we seen about 5 people having a casual drink and dance, thought we would grab a couple of cocktails (long Island and sex on the beach go so hard) Within half hour then an hour there was conga lines, 100-200 avid party goers and the best dance party we have ever experienced. People from all over the world came together tonight to make a night to never forget. The DJ really nailed the international dance vibes not one song lowered the vibe. Right up untill closing we had the best night imaginable here in florence. The night is what you make it and everyone is all about it once you start. Thankyou for the memories guys!
