Rex Cafè

15 Best Bars in Florence | Condé Nast Traveler

"At Rex, a nautical theme meets trippy disco-ball decor and plush vintage furniture. Open since 1990, the funky, artsy lounge is a defining piece of Florentine nightlife and a favorite among locals. Rex has long had a reputation as a loud, crowded nightclub—the whole place turns into a giant DJ-fueled dance party after 10 p.m.—but recent efforts by Mose Giordani, one of the leading cocktail geniuses in Florence, has turned it into a destination for respectable drinks and bar bites. You'll find well-executed classics, as well as some innovative house creations." - Coral Sisk
