Romantic weekend in Florence, Italy

Watch Sunrise at a rooftop

Our last night we stayed at Hotel Piazza Sul Duomo, which has a private terrace only accesible for guests that can enjoy the views from there. We spent almost every time up here, we watched a beautiful sunrise and a sunset. So bring a pizza and enjoy the views.

tip: If you are looking for a romantic hotel or a place to propose to your love one, this is the place

Ponte Vecchio

Probably the busiest place in Florence, the most beautiful location is in the bridge right in front of it. Unfortunately we didn’t take any photos here as it was packed every time we came and we just enjoyed the view as we didn’t want to queue for a photo.

Although we were lucky to see an air balloon floating over Ponte Vecchio, it was truly amazing.

Have a drink behind the Duomo

We all know prices in big cities can be very high, and Florence is not an exception as most of the places are quite expensive.

We found a cute little terrace right behind the Duomo with only a few chairs where a glass of wine was only 3.5 euros and got a complimentary tapas and chips, so not bad compared to all the crazy places here.

Watch live music at Piazza de la Republica

The most popular square in Florence, there are so many restaurants and cafes in this square and lots of activities for the kids. It’s a typical place where tours start so you will find big groups of people here.

Where To Eat – Vegan friendly

Mister Pizza

Located right in the duomo square. Even if it looks touristy the pizza is really good and have vegan coconut cheese that was incredibly good. They also have gluten free options.

Be aware it can be very popular and busy, so if you can’t find a table, don’t worry! You can order it to take away and bring it to your rooftop or to the river like we did.

Su Guan

The most popular vegan restaurant in Florence, an authentic Chinese food restaurant. They were really nice to us and explained every dish. Highly recommend it if you come to Florence.It gets really busy so make sure to book a table or come early.

Trattoria da Guido

Found this little cute family own restaurant while we were walking around Florence.

It is one of the oldest establishments and decided to give it a try and had some amazing bruschetta and very nice wine. We paid less than 10 euros for 1L of wine and bruschetta for two people.

Rooster Cafe Firenze for Brunch

On our last day we found this cafe where they had vegan options for breakfast and had one of the best fluffy pancakes ever with coconut cream on top.
