Indoor/outdoor market with fresh produce, meats, cheeses & local goods
"Small but mighty, this flea market just across the street from Sant’Ambrogio is where magpies score statement necklaces, party pitchers, vintage vinyl records, and serving trays; there’s also a compact yet one‑of‑a‑kind selection of men’s and women’s wear, and on the last Sunday of the month it spills beyond the covered area into the surrounding streets with extra emphasis on antique furniture." - Mary Gray
"At this daily market, locals favor the seasonal produce—often with recipe suggestions from the stallholders—alongside artisanal cheeses and quality meats that reflect Florence’s everyday flavors." - Georgette Jupe
"For preparing meals at home, this market has a number of artisans and farmers selling high-quality goods they’ve made or grown themselves — and the direct contact with producers is priceless." - The MICHELIN Guide
"It has the ambience of authentic Florence and of people who really live in the city, and it makes me feel at home. All the fruits and vegetables of the season are on display at the stands so you can see what’s happening, what’s available, and what to cook with in that moment; Italy’s attention to seasonality is an important part of how we compose our menus." - Laura Rysman
"One of my biggest assets in Florence, this market is where I bring chefs to experience Tuscany’s produce and products; the seasonal offerings are so good that they end up bonding with the fruit sellers, a connection that helps everyone feel integrated into the local ecosystem." - Laura Rysman
