Have spent a lot of time in Cornwall, England, and boy do they know how to make ice cream! I mention this because the ice cream at Antica Gelateria is the best I have ever eaten. We did a three hour walking to deliberately designed to end up near here and we were not disappointed. Wonderful wonderful wonderful!

On many previous trips to Florece I had never tried despite the good reviews. The gelato was very good although a little small on the portion(that often depends on who your server is).

When we arrived in Florence, the first question I asked our hotel owner was where we could find the best gelato. He did not lead us astray when he told us about Antica Gelateria.

Yes. yes. yes. Delicious! We tried the fresh Fragola (strawberry) and the savory Amarena (cherries in vanilla) and loved both. Will definitely be going back!

The wife can't get enough of their Ambrosia flavored gelato. I, on the other hand, loved the Fragola ( strawberry). The strawberry tasted so fresh and the cream did not overpower the flavor of the fruit. And great price, too!
