Immerse your senses in the sights, sounds, and tastes of Mercato Centrale. Pick up everything you need--meat, fish, cheese, olives, pasta, bread, and wine--to make a delicious Tuscan meal. Most vendors will let you try samples of their products. If you get hungry, grab a panini from a stall or sit down in one of the market's eateries. A local favorite is panino con bollito, a boiled beef sandwich where the bread is dipped in the cooking broth and topped with salsa. Wash it down with some fresh iced tea.

Great place to grab a quick bite to eat. They have so many options and you can't go wrong with any of them. We ate a couple of pastries from the bakery, had a beer at the bar along with some pizza. All of it was excellent. The atmosphere is wonderful and the theme of the market is great! I loved all of the drawings for each of the vendors.

Incredible foodie experience at Mercato Centrale! Here you can taste all the flavors of Italy and beyond. I even saw a food stall with ‘Japanese Ravioli’ who knew that was a thing? If you sit at one of the big tables upstairs someone will stop by and ask if you want a drink from the bar. I really enjoyed my time here sampling some of the different flavors. I will definitely return for more before heading out of Florence.
