Excellent - Edit
I have eaten at Shake Café twice and enjoyed it. I’ve had a plant-based bowl and a plant-based brunch. Both were excellent. The service is great. Unfortunately, the place is rather noisy due to the echoing acoustics and loud music.

Good vegan brunch plate - Edit
We enjoyed the breakfasts we had there. They have a fully vegan brunch plate (with sweet potato fries, pancakes,...), vegan banana bread and plant milks. Not everything is clearly labeled unfortunately

Best vegan brunch spot - Edit
Since we could not decide, we went for the vegan brunch plate. Was the best one we every had. Would recommend to order it if you are really hungry.

Gran opción cerca de la Academia - Edit
Buscábamos una opción para comer cerca de la Academia y fue una gran elección. Pedí un plato verano y tenía tortilla, papas, pancakes y tomaste. Me encantó.

Healthy food! - Edit
This location is really big with many tables inside and outside in the courtyard as well as some outside on the sidewalk. Toilet available.
Read moreBefore 10 AM it's self service, so you have to order at the counter by the door. I got the vegan banana and chocolate pancakes for 10eur and a medium chai latte with oat milk for 5 eur. Unfortunatel, you have to pay 0.5eur extra for plant milk. The pancakes came with a lot of fresh fruit and they were sweet but delicious. The stack consisted of 3 pancakes. It was filling. The chai latte was your typical super sweet version.
Would recommend as they have many vegan breakfast options and because the pancakes were delicious. They also open very early.
Pros: Many vegan options, Delicious vegan pancakes, Nice location with many tables
Cons: Plant milk is 0.5eur extra

I would rate it five stars! - Edit
I didn't expect much since it's not a completely vegan restaurant, but I was pleasantly surprised and we ended up going there twice.
Read moreWe opted for their vegan brunch plate, which had a chickpea omelette with vegan feta cheese and cherry tomatoes, avocado toast, and sweet potato fries served with harissa mayo. Additionally, we enjoyed both the chocolate chip and banana pancakes, as well as a slice of banana bread topped with coconut yogurt and blueberry jam. We also tried the miso glazed tofu vegan bowl, which was delicious.
For drinks, we had an espresso and a hazelnut mocha made with hazelnut syrup, an espresso shot, vegan chocolate chips, cacao powder, and pea protein milk, plus two smoothies: Espresso Boost and Raspberry Power Shake.
Everything was absolutely delicious, and I highly recommend checking this place out!
Pros: Delicious food, Lovely atmosphere, Friendly staff

Vegan panettone with pistachio and chocolate - Edit
You can buy two types of vegan panettone (I guess only in winter time). One is with pistachio and chocolate (28€), the other with hazelnut and chocolate (don't know the price). I only tried the one with pistachio, but it was reallyy delicious! Can recommend, and I'm considering to make another trip to Florence next year around the same time 🥰
Read moreWe also had breakfast here, good vegan options, good portion size, can recommend 👍

Firenze Stroll - Edit
While out walking around Firenze, jumped on Happy Cow to find a place to eat and the HC community gave this place rave reviews. It did not disappoint!
Read moreSettled on the Hummus Wrap and some chips & guacamole.
The wrap was great but messy!
Pros: Great meal options, Flavorful food
Cons: Hummus wrap was messy due to the juices within.

Delicious food - Edit
Many clearly labelled vegan options. Some things also have a vegan option if you read the description further. I had the vegan burger which was amazing and possibly the best bean burger I've ever had. Chai latte was also really nice. Would recommend

Vegan Croissant - Edit
So they have a few vegan options and I took a vegan chocolate croissant oat milk cappuccino. They charge 50 cents extra for any milk alternative. It was a good coffee and it’s nice to get an vegan croissant, but the staff wasn’t that friendly.

Horrible service - Edit
The food was alright, the wraps a bit overly toasted and only folded to the middle so everything would fall out eventually on the bottom. The service was really bad, it took super long to get noticed and for the staff to prep the food, the staff was unfocused and hardly doing their job.
Read moreCons: really bad service , felt very unwelcome

Bad bad bad - Edit
The coffee was the worst we’ve had in Italy. They charge 50C extra for plant milk. The vegan brunch was so weird. The banana bread was stale and so strange to be served with the savoury food. The cream and jam on top of the banana bread made me feel slightly ill. The chickpea fritter was not great. The avo on toast was not seasoned. The portion was enough for two. But I wouldn’t bother. Nice environment felt very chain like however.
