You don't need to window shop the mostly tacky jewelry on the Ponte Vecchio again. I was feeling ashamed because I was on my 3rd gelato that particular day, and then I overheard a group of girls talking amongst themselves while waiting to order. One was reminding another that it was her 4th gelato of the day. I said a... More

The staff serving gelato is usually pleasant but the staff of the cafe are rude and sometimes threatening the Gelateria does a lot more business Thasn the cafe they share with. So when the crowds block the entrance to the cafe. Which the Gelateria is within, the cafe staff push and shout to tourists to get out of the way.... More

This place is simply wonderful - the gelato is SO good and it was so nice having happy people serve the multitude of tourists who flock to Florence.... so often we are a bother. I tried gelato at a couple of different places but the variety and flavous were great not to mention the nice seating area (with air con)... More

Wow... lovely chocolate ice-cream... I ate ice-cream every day, and this shop was one of the nice ones.. I did have one ice-cream from a patissiere which had ice in it... yuck... that was very close to the tourist spot of the ponte vechhio..

In a city of good gelato this gelateria did not disappoint. Right off the bridge in the Oltrarno we joined the others in line for some very good gelato. You can take your gelato outside and rest against the bridge wall for a fantastic view of the Arno and Ponte Vecchio.

I have had gelato everyday since I arrived in Italy and this the best gelato yet. I still have a couple more cities to go but I am still dreaming and talking about the gelato I had there. Must go and try it for yourself.

Let me say that while on a two week vacation I ate gelato a minimum of 20 times. This was without a doubt the best of everywhere we tried. I loved it so much I made the wife stop by with me 3 times just so we could try another flavor. I love chocolate, and their chocolate gelato offerings were... More

We spent two weeks in Italy in May 2013 and went to the most aclaimed gelaterias in the country: "the one" in San Gimignano, two very traditional ones in Rome... but we would always remember Gelateria Santa Trinita in Florence as the best one! The nocciola flavour is to die for!!!!

My first gelato here was white peach which was the best gelato I've had in Italy. Today they had yellow peach which was also very good. I had the 1.80 euro cup and it was plenty. It is a beautiful place - look up at the lights while you're waiting.

Went on a recommendation from a friend from Florence and thought it was the best I had in town. Tried another local favorite as well as many flavors at the gelato festival that happened to be going on, but this was the most satisfying. The place is bright and cheery and the line is long but quick. Prices are reasonable... More
