We ate in two restaurants on the square, neither remarkable in either service or food. It's a pleasant little town, one of the larger in the Chianti region

Wine festival second weekend september, just super. Always something going on ,on the piazza. Famous butcher at the square. Wineshops. Hotel and restaurant Verrazano.

Whenever I have reason to be in Greve (at least once a month), I always take time to do a circuit of this charming piazza. Interesting shops and a good bar for a pastry and espresso (Bar Lepanto).

Nice and relaxed atmosphere to have lunch, dinner or just walking around. People are just amazingly friendly.

The shops around this piazza were fun to browse. We enjoyed a gelato after walking 2km up to Montefioralle. There is a fountain to fill up your water bottle along the way.

Most amazing collection of everything meat wise we have ever experienced
