Pasticceria Gaetano In Firenze

If you are close, you must start your morning here.

Excellent pastry shop, highly recommended.

Historic pastry shop with a wide assortment of sweet and savory pastries. Typical Sicilian products such as cannoli, cassata, truly exquisite almond desserts. Also always present is the ArancinA with a capital A! TOP in Florence according to my personal taste. The current management is made up of very kind young people but I suppose the historic pastry chefs will remain in the laboratory given that the goodness and quality remain continuously. They also sell tobacco. They accept payments with meal vouchers for lunch breaks.

Excellent pastry shop!! Both for the first courses and for the pastry shop, exceptional staff!!!

EVEN IF BUT HAPPY Working morning interrupted by the need for a coffee and after entering this place for the first time, I was attracted by the window. I immediately tried the cannoli, excellent wafer despite being thick, the filling definitely revisited with the addition of cream and perhaps too sweet but overall good. Then I tried the lobster tail or curly or Neapolitan, as they call it, excellent and I repeat excellent flaking with an orange cream filling perhaps a little too thick but good. Lastly I was tempted by the cassata which was good overall but unfortunately its interior was far from the original taste, good but different. The excellent service, flawless and very professional, kind and smiling, makes you want to consume and return. If I could I would have given more stars. The place deserves more space, to enjoy without feeling the pressure or presence of those around you. However, overall definitely worth returning and recommending. P.S. - I also had a tray prepared with other products to try at home and I confirm everything.

One of the best pastry shops and bars in Florence. Especially with the renovation of the place it is much nicer and the guys are very nice and helpful. There is always a lot of people. There must be a reason even if selfishly I would like to always have an empty table and have a good coffee with less noise from the customers 😄... the pastas are delicious, even the savory ones and the coffee is delicious.

Completely renovated place, but pastry and kindness always at the top

Overall a good coffee shop with a variety of fresh sweets to select from, the pastries were good, but the latte was a bit cold and the taste of coffee was not strong enough. Also, it was busy and crowded even after 10:00 am, so it is not easy to find a spot. With that being said, the service was great

The Gaetano pastry shop has reopened after the renovation works and the result is surprising. Among the renovated spaces, the attention to detail and the welcoming atmosphere, the quality of the products stands out above all. The vegan croissant has even improved compared to the past, a delicate and fragrant pastry that comes close to the perfection of a French croissant. For those, like me, who only drink plant-based alternatives, the cappuccino with soy drink was a pleasant discovery with a creamy and velvety foam, so much so that it was reminiscent of a flat white, impeccable in its simplicity. A return in style!

Personale molto cordiale, prodotti di pasticceria freschissimi e davvero buoni così come il caffè. Da rivedere forse solo un po’ la pulizia degli ambienti.
