Cafe Odeon

The cafe is nice but a little pricey compared to other cafes in the area. The theater is a little noisy if you intend on studying and there isn’t great wifi or outlets so it’s hard to work here. Lovely view and great use of the space though! It’s a great spot to chit chat with friends

A beautiful place in the heart of Firenze! The vibe overall is wonderful, so elegant and truly royal. However, unfortunately, the place is so so tiny, which is a pity. Prices for drinks are quite high, at least during an event. Still, the cocktails are great, so not at all upset! Atmosphere was great, and everyone seemed to be having a good time. Definitely would recommend this spot for a night out in Firenze!

Been here twice during our stay i Florence and very satisfied. We had some drinks and some cold cuts. Very good drinks (had the cosmopolitan and limoncello spritz) and service minded staff. Very pleased :)

Wonderful place for some sommer wine! Also, check out the wine window, it’s one of the prettiest in the city.

A tiny window in a wall where you can order a glass of wine or Aperol to make your Fierenze experience special and Instagram worthy. But even more worth the mention is the friendly and top notch service by Anna who welcomes you with a smile and will make sure to cater to your every need. Definitely coming back soon. 🤗

Waitress was beyond aloof, to be so unfathomably rude takes dedication and practice. Never has someone in the service industry had this much contempt for an overpaying customer. It was almost perversely entertaining. We won't return.

I am French and I can say I had the BEST croissant there (pistachio filled) ! The barista makes great designs with the cappuccino foam. Don’t miss the adjacent library / movie theatre.

Good ambience, a bit pricey but ok

Found this one via yelp and wanted to try it. Pretty darn good! They did bring the mains at the same time as the appetizers, which I don't love. The karaage was excellent. The bruschetta was a little underwhelming but very fresh. The chicken curry was good, not spicy at all, could've been more flavorful but that's just how British curry is. The fried goat cheese salad was good but could've used more goat cheese. The burger was also good, though definitely tasted different than an American burger. The homemade bun was excellent. The special sauce was great too, and citrusy! The waiter had great energy and great English. There was a very pretty tree centerpiece (pictured) that lended good ambience. Also some misters. Would definitely return!

I came here with my husband during our vacation to Italy for the first time and we sat outside of the patio. We ordered a couple of salad and the limoncello spritzes. My husband got the caesar, and once I saw his I had to try it. So I had some of his, immediately fell in love, and he switched salads with me. Then, I ordered a second caesar salad just for me. I've never had two lunches before, but this was the best salad I've had in my ENTIRE LIFE. The ingredients were fresh and perfect, the dressing was perfectly balanced and absolutely incredible. The spritzes at Odeon were my favorite drink in Italy. They even have a wine window if you just want that. I dream about this place. 5 stars isn't enough, they can have all the stars in the world.

New name is Odeon Cafe - aperitivo no longer includes small bites ($$$). Negroni was watered down and overly sweet. Martini with gin & Noilly Prat earned stars.

This bar has reasonable prices and great service. Come here instead of Colle Bereto next door.

How I like this place! Not only is strategically linked with the amazing theater, but the kitchen knows itself around the aperitivo style. Two tables are dressed with delicious food: Italian, fusion, seafood and meat dishes and a lot of vegetables "in tutte le salse"! The outdoor is also a smoking area and it's always opened both in summer and winter seasons. Inside the place is quite dark lighted, small tea tables and armchairs, some stools. Cost is 10 € you eat and drink and then you can choose: movie or dance club? They're just 'round the corner!

If you're like me and can't wait till 10 p.m. to eat dinner like the Spanish do apertivo is perfect for you! Essentially apertivo is small snacks and appetizers that you can get in the evening prior to dinner while enjoying a glass of wine. You only have to pay for your drink and there's no extra charge for the food. Brilliant right?! The concept is great. I walked in around 6 p.m. and the apertivo was not setup yet. Basically I'm a grandma that needs to eat dinner early. Especially after a whole day of walking around. Odeon Bistro was recommended to me, but I was not impressed. First we sat outdoors in the tent because that's where everyone seemed to be sitting, but there were way too many people smoking and since I'm very sensitive to cigarette smoke we moved indoors. I got a glass of wine that was meh while we waited for them to setup the food. They had an assortment of cheese, cured meats, and a few fried things. I wasn't impressed with any of it. I decided after tasting several items that I should just suck it up and wait till dinner. I gave it 3 stars only for the affordable price. It's only 10 euro for a drink and endless apps!

For a mere 10 euro, you get a drink of choice plus all-you-can-eat aperitif (tons of mini appetizers). And Odeon does not disappoint. We had everything from grilled chicken to grilled veggies, quiche to bruschetta, rice and pasta to garlic bread. We were so full, we didn't even need to order dinner. For our drink we ordered Moscow Mules, which were delicious and served with a full slice of ginger. Get there early because they fill up quickly.

The Odeon Bistro is a very elegant cafe/wine bar attached to the famous Odeon cinema in piazza strozzi. They offer special deals for aperitivo for those who see movies at the Odeon and during film festival season there is often a special-themed apertivo. For a drink, coffee or tea it really is the perfect place since prices are normal and the ambiance is beautiful. Elegant and most definitely 'bistro' like. The food however is not very good. I have eaten a few times on various occasions and it was just boring, bland and just not very healthy. I would not recommend eating here unless you order a specific plate (I always went for aperitivo).

We came here for drinks before having dinner at Vinandro in Fiesola. The bar has character. It is attached to the Odeon theater. The menu was cute because it looked like a play bill and contained old movie shots along side the drinks menu. The decor feel super chic and it is a great place to have a drink and aperativo. We only had drinks and did not partake in the food. However, the spread looked good and the people around us seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely. The service was still good even though we only had drinks.

Lovely little bistro in the Piazza Strozzi. We had the pasta with white ragout (rabbit and olives) and ravioli in sage and butter. Both delicious. Service was competent, not overly friendly but perfectly nice, and I used my Italian.

We were walking around Florence on a Thursday night, and there wasn't much happening in the city. We came upon this pace and decided to have a couple of drinks on their outside seating. The weather was nice enough that it wasn't cold so why not hang out here? Our server was hilarious and attentive, which really added to the charm of this place. Granted we only had a few drinks, but we had a fun time in this laid back atmosphere. At the end we even got a free shot with the bartender! These guys sure know how to party, haha.

One of the best meals in Italy and France that I had. Tabbouleh with grilled octopus was tasty I just didn't enjoy the mixture of the cold tabbouleh and warm octopus. Overall I enjoyed the dish. I also had the grilled mixed vegetables as a side. That was very very tasty. Eggplant, carrot, and zucchini cooked perfectly. Great meal.

Visited with my wife on lunch time and got seated right away. We ordered 2 kinds of pasta and they were so delicious!! Great service and excellent food.
