Rude man working there - Edit
I went here two times. First I paid 3€ for water that comes out of a tap and 6€ for a very small tiramisu. The cost of a cappuccino is 4€ on the menu which normally costs about €1.50. The cappuccino is as small and one of the worst I’ve had in Italy. There were many people coming in the borrow the restroom and the girls were very sweet saying it’s fine to borrow their toilet. I came back the next day having to pee very badly and the man working there came and told me I can’t borrow the toilet and I said the day before the girls said it was fine and he said “no it’s not fine”

really good - Edit
The pistachio ensemble was absolutely incredible, and knowing that it didn't contain refined sugar made it even better. Also really liked the dessert in the glass, the cookies were not so much my thing. But overall really amazing desserts!

Amazing Vegan Cafe - Edit
Came across this place and was hesitant as raw vegan is not my thing and I have never really enjoyed anything raw vegan.
Read moreThis place changed that. The options are amazing, ordered a sampling of everything and each item was incredible. Not a single miss. Nothing about their offerings seemed raw vegan at all.
If you are in Florence you need to stop here.

Perfection! - Edit
This was one of the best desserts I've had in my life, it's hard to even describe how excellent the flavour and how incredibly balanced it was. It is pricey but well worth it, if you're a fan of hazelnuts and chocolate the hazelnut chocolate mousse ball thingy😋

Pâtisserie toute végane !!! Tartelette noisette et crème au chocolat délicieuse pour 6€, des petits cookies très bons à 2,50€ et autres sucreries élaborées ou plus simples.
Read moreAttention, c’est 7€ par personne de consommation minimum pour s’asseoir à la terrasse, ou bien 1€ par personne. Mais il y a des marches juste à côté, donc prenez à emporter😉
Pros: Délicieux, Tout végane !
Cons: Prix minimum pour s’asseoir en terrasse, Un peu cher

Una cafetería monísima - Edit
Me gustó el local especializado en el chocolate en el centro de Florencia. Eso sí, tras ser de muy buena calidad, era muy caro. Por ejemplo, la caja de bombones que compré estaba de rechupete, pero me costó 17€😅

Good, but not exceptional - Edit
The café offers a good selection of raw vegans desserts, cookies and ice cream (six flavors when we visited: mango, raspberry, dark chocolate, gianduja, hazelnut and salted caramel). We tried their pecan biscuits (with figs, strawberry and raspberry) as well as their ice cream. The biscuits weren’t that spectacular (I didn’t enjoy the softness of the biscuit) and their ice cream was good. They have space inside and a nice terrace outside.
Read moreIt’s worth a visit if you stroll by, but if you are not a big fan of raw pastries, opt for their ice cream.

READ THIS!!! - Edit
‼️‼️‼️
Read moreREAD THIS!!!I had to edit this, i gave this café a 3 star ranking and explained why and after reading me and my family's reviews they answered us with very discriminatory and xenophobic comments, they were more aggressive especially towards my dad, they told us to go back to our country and that if we're poor it's our problem.
It makes me really sad seeing people like this especially when all the other places in Italy (even not vegan places) were so so welcoming and nice. I'm not asking for niceness, just respect and if they cant do that I have to give a bad review, I wont stand it.
Note: happycow doesn't let me give 1 star

AMAZING - Edit
Absolutely incredible. We had mango cheesecake, tiramisu and a chocolate ball with white chocolate inside. Therefore two coffees and three desserts it came to €28 which was reasonable and acted as a meal for us in the summer heat in Florence. Wouldn’t say it’s an expensive place, it’s quite reasonable considering they make it all themselves and 100% raw etc.
Read morePros: All vegan, Reasonable prices , Lovely seating area

Poor services - Edit
The products are ok but not that great. I was surprised to be charged 1 euro for a (suposed) filtered glass of water.
Read moreBeside this both toilets have no papel. I guess this vegan place is saving too much trees. 😅
As a vegan I was expecting much more. But it is what it is.
Pros: Nothing that much
Cons: Charging for glass of tap water, No toilet paper
VitoCortese
You just complain because you are cheap and don’t want to pay for water, not our problem.
Read moreIn Italy you pay for it and by the way, a glass of water costs 50cents.
Then, if you can’t recognize the high quality of our products, you should go back to your place 😊
Francisco Guerreiro
Cheap do you mean poor? I suggest you to check a documentary that I produced called Universal Basic Income: a path to freedom. It's free. www.rbidoc.com (episode 3, about poverty). Thankfully financial resources are not a problem but I'm amazed that you analysis relied on our supposed income. Not very vegan I may say. Also I seems you don't know your own country since we've been to a lot of other places and were never charged by tap water (your high quality product 😅). So I can understand it is also common that there is no toilet paper in the wc in Italy? No. Just in your establishment. Stating that I should go to my country shows your're a xenophobic person. I'm Portuguese but also an European citizen. Me and my family have been very welcomed in Italy by several hotels, restaurants and italian citizens. Let me say you and your business are the less positive experience. But again I'm not judging Italy by your small business. Wishing you all the best specially how to anger manage your posts in social media. 😉

Too expensive - Edit
They charge the glass of wather (1€) for me this is not acepteble even if they say its filtered wather. We came from Portugal and i have never paid for a glass of wather.
