An obvious touristy spot given its location near the Uffizi but very friendly staff who was more than willing to keep the ice coming during a hot summer afternoon. Coffee slushy is a good choice too

This café has been here since 1872 when it was a chocolate factory ! Sit back, look at Palazzo Vecchio and sip on a hot chocolate with whipped cream ! Florence’s Historic Cafes : http://bit.ly/1iv6gt1

"Rivoire in Firenze is the only place for the Negroni , because it's where Luca Picchi works. He wrote a beautiful book about Count Negroni and he makes the ultimate Negroni " per @Dannosphere

Guide tells us this was the first place in Florence to sell chocolate to the common folks, instead of just nobility. Hot chocolate is an espresso shot of thick chocolate syrup !

I really love this cafe .. food and deserts are delicious .. my best desert dish is the strawberry tart .. soooo fresh

known for the hot chocolate , rivoire is in the middle of the historical city center but with salty prices

Friendly staff , touristy spot but sill deserve a break here for delicious mocha and Gelato

Enrico Rivoire , from Turin, opened this chocolate factory in 1872. The furnishings date back to 1900. Tip: savor the excellent chocolate overlooking a sunset-tinted Palazzo della Signoria . Read more

Try one of the best hot chocolates in the city ! Like all cafes , it costs less (a lot less in scenic places like this one) to stand at the bar rather than sit at a table.

Located at the Piazza della Signoria, Rivoire offers you a beautiful view and extremely high prices. It's up to you to decide whether the former compensates for the latter.

Hot chocolate + orange juice + croissant breakfast . Perfect for people watching .

Excellent views of the square. Wine and beer is good. Food is ok. Spaghetti bolognese is their best dish.

Good coffee with nice view on the palazzo.

Delicious food, serving breakfast , lunch , pastry , chocolates and great coffee

Opened in 1872 by Enrico Rivoire , chocolatier of the royal House of Savoy.

Ate a decent spaghetti alla vongole variant there. The club sandwich is huge.

Swift professional service in a great setting and awesome hot chocolate . Must try!

Take a coffee (ristretto) at the counter (1,10 €) and try the rum baba ! Very good

Amazing view and really friendly staff .

The brioche was ok,tiramisu was very small but the coffees were good.The prices are quite above the average.Nice to have a coffee with a Vecchio Palace scenery.

The complementary olives are amazing!! (The food too)

Tiramisu is good, warm service and beautiful place with Firenze scenery

Delicious torta fi frutta fresh fruit cake & torta millefoglie cream puff cake

Expensive, but very good cafe . Best option is to eat at the counter.

Don't leave Firenze without trying their "cioccolata con panna". Trust me, it is superb!

Nice service. Beautiful place. Hot Chocolate is quite expensive - costs 6'50€ and is quite small

loved the ravioli , the best I had in Tuscany so far.

Good staff , coffee and view but tiramisu was microscobic. It is so small and not delicious. Quite expensive and overrated place. If you go, do not order tiramisu .

Fantastic toilet very clean ! ????

Hot chocolate was overpriced & overrated but place is set in a great location. Service was friendly (very!). Outdoor seating .

Beautiful view with not so expensive food and drinks.

Come for coffee & cake ... stay for the people watching

Not to be missed espresso spot along with Gilli.

Not cheap like the description but is a great place!

Don't get fooled, the prices here are an extortion. The staff are unpleasant, hot chocolate is lukewarm and not really worth €7! You pay for the view so don't expect a good product or service quality

Expensive, but great service and the location is unbeatable

Dessert was great but make sure you pay an exact amount. Our bill was 22 euros and paid 30 euros and the waiter never gave our change back.

A table on the piazza offers a glorious view of the Palazzo della Signoria and a front row to observe the locals.

Coffee and apperitivo under the look of Michelangelo's David!

Fantastic tiramisu !

Amazing rich hot chocolate

You go here if you're rich and American.

Best hot chocalate ever !!!

The best cappuccino & hot chocolatemilk of Firenze!

If you fancy Nutella try Rivoire chocolate cream gnammy!!!!!

Near the square..touch the michellengelo..and drink chocolate ...

Hot chocolate please and thank you.

Try the hot chocolate . It's so good.

Very unfriendly place
