Enoteca Obsequium Wine Shop Bistrot

Loved this place, stopped here on a Friday afternoon in December and it was so quiet. We had 2 bottles of wine and shared a large platter - ended up paying about €85 (£75). Not all done is on the menu, but you can have a roam around and pick your bottle. Service was amazing, the man working there was friendly and made us feel so welcome. He even got us some treats on the house. Definitely recommend!

We stopped here after an e-bike tour that was supposed to give us this experience and didn't. I am so glad we stopped in because it was really great. I didn't know there was so much to olive oil but you could really taste the differences in each one. The staff was very friendly and offered great explanations. We each got a mixed tasting with different wines so we were able to try more. We enjoyed our experience.

We absolutely loved our time here! The service was incredible and our staff was very knowledgeable. We did the Tuscan flight and meat & cheese board. Would absolutely recommend!

Not really the experience I expected from reading the other reviews. My friend and I paid 25 euros each for the tasting of 3 Tuscan reds. The wine tasting involved a lady bringing the 6 glasses of wine and a laminated map where she pointed out where each was from (and she didn't really seem sure!) Our final glasses each had different labels on (one said cabernet, another something else) but she assured us they were both the same. So...that was it. More than 8 euros per glass with less than 1 minute of information given. Not worth it all.

An excellent place for wine lovers! The owner was polite and very knowledgeable, explaining in detail the different varieties and flavors, helping us better understand the world of Italian wine. You can sit down for dinner, open a bottle from the cellar, and if you don’t finish it, you can come back the next day and continue where you left off. The food that accompanies the wine is high-quality and well-paired, and they also offer the option to ship wines directly to your home. Warm atmosphere, impeccable service, and truly an experience worth having in Florence!

Wonderful wine bar with an excellent selection of wines, both by the glass and by the bottle. We had to visit more than once — one time we also had a few light bites: bread, cheeses, Parma ham, and Italian salami. It was really good and fairly priced. On the second evening, we tried some sparkling wines, and even got a complimentary tasting after asking about the difference between two types — a lovely touch. Warm, friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable service. We’ll definitely be back if we find ourselves in Florence again… :-) Thank you for a great experience.

We stumbled across a local wine tasting shop and met Samantha, who introduced us to the wines of the local area and her hometown of Sardinia. What a wonderful welcoming hostess. The wines were wonderful and paired well with our platter and bruschetta. What a wonderful place to sit and relax and enjoy the local flavors.

While staying nearby we stopped in hear for an afternoon glass of wine before heading back to out room to get ready for dinner. The place was packed and it appeared they only had one guy working there. He was trying his best to get to everyone, but there were delays. Yet, he still smiled and worked hard to make sure guests were taken care of. Their wine selection is very nice; they offer flights, glasses, or bottles. If you’re into wine, it’s a nice place to stop!

I tried three times to buy a couple of bottles of wine for my friend in Florence as a holiday gift. All three times my online purchase were denied by their website. After contacting my credit card company, I was told that the issue was with their website. This process took me several hours of extremely difficult tim. The next time I sent them an email wondering why this is happening? To my surprise, they conf that they had web issues and they asked me to go to a Bank, wire the money and then they would be consider completing my order!! Just like the actually thing they were the only game in town!! I contacted the actual wine maker and they sent my friend the same wine much cheaper few days later. No worries

I came here for wine tasting and you can make reservations online or call. The place is very comfy and cozy. The gentleman assisting us was friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend visiting. The prices are very reasonable. If you're visiting you will feel welcomed here. This was the best place I've visited in Florence. I love that is also a wind shop so you can also shop as you sip. The truffle cheese was so good and I did the red wine tasting.

Ok wine store, but over priced tasting menu. Stick with the glasses and you will be happy.

We were looking to buy a bottle of wine to take back to the hotel and we came across this wonderful wine store, cafe and wine bar. Their wine selection was fantastic and the guys working were very friendly. While we recognized some of our favorites from home, they made some great recommendations on new stuff to try. Excited to try them out.

This place is amazing!!! For the price of a local moderate lunch you can get a great tasting and a very generous and high quality charcuterie. Incredible value. Their selection of local wine plus some very special selections made this a very happy accident.

I will forever miss this place. We walked in an hour before closing on Sunday for a salami/cheese plate with red wine before walking to Gusta. WOW. Perfect meat & probably the best cheese I've ever had. Intimate, delicious, and great service. Amazing wine selection also!!

This was my favorite wine store in all of Florence... Mainly because of the large selection. They had wines & varietals that no one else had. Plus... you can have wine & cheese pairings, etc here. Great place! I thought the service was extremely friendly - - so apparently I had a different experience than others. But they had my favorite Brachetto d'Acqui and the largest Piemonte selection available, plus they ship to the States! Highly, highly recommend this Oltrarno gem!

Back again, a glass each of good Chianti and a Nobile. 10 euros. Last time we had the sampler of meat, cheese bread and wine. Still offering that too. Off the tourist track, across the Ponte Vecchio take a right. Worth the stop and the wine!

This was a lucky stumble upon after a full day of museums, a large lunch, and aperitivo earlier. My friends followed the waiters recommendation and had glasses of Brunello. I had a generous tasting of Sangiovese reds. We shared a "small" vegetarian cheese board. The decor is pure small wine shop, the ambiance was mellow, and the prices were reasonable.

We were hoping to find a shop to taste and buy wine, and we stumbled upon this one. We had two tastings for €15 each, and then met a wonderful customer who was a wine connoisseur. He and the woman employee of the shop helped advise us on what to choose. We selected 12 bottles and shipped them to the US for a shipping cost of €115. As of today, the cost to ship 3 bottles is €60, 6 bottles €75. We figured why not - we're in Florence. We won't regret it. It's a beautiful shop and it was a great experience. The customer who chatted with us goes there every year, so he loves it as well.

Very cute, local spot to grab a glass or two of wine! You sit inside the wine store, surrounded by bottles of wine, and it feels very local. Would recommend!

Great wine shop! Found it by chance and enjoyed the conversation regarding Tuscany. Great recommendation on an excellent Brunello.

Nice selection, helpful staff (they even understood my Italian. Can't wait to get the good stuff home. Graze mille!

They may get Great reviews from locals, but if you are an American they walk around the store with you like you are going to steal everything. The salesperson, a tall blonde, is rude, and condescending. She could care less if you buy anything. If they were giving away blocks of gold, I wouldn't go back in this store again.

My wife and I took a food and wine tour in Florence and Obsequium was part of the tour. We enjoyed this shop so much we inquired if they shipped to the U.S., happily they said yes. They were so friendly and helpful, also allowing us several tastes in choosing our wines. We ended shipping 2 cases home. Our next trip to Florence will definitely include Obsequium.
