Start your day at Sant'Ambrogio Market

Arrive while the market is properly working, notice what residents buy and build a simple breakfast or lunch.

Why it is worth doing

Sant'Ambrogio is a neighborhood market before it is a visitor stop. Florence speaks here through ingredients, prices and daily habits.

How to plan it

  1. 01

    Go Monday to Saturday between 8:00 and 11:00.

  2. 02

    Walk one complete loop through the covered hall and outside stalls first.

  3. 03

    Choose one thing to eat there and one item that is easy to carry.

  4. 04

    Continue toward Santa Croce before the market closes and the area changes pace.

Local tips
