Gilli, formally Caffè Gilli, is the historic café at Via Roma 1/R beside Florence’s Piazza della Repubblica. The operator traces the business to 1733 and its permanent home on the square to 1917. Today it combines several public offers under one identity: café and patisserie service, artisanal chocolate, an Italian bistrot, aperitif and cocktail bar. These are venue areas and service styles, not separate branches.

The current bistrot menu runs from starters through pasta, main courses, salads and desserts. Named dishes include tagliatelle with Bolognese ragù and sage, rigatoni alla carbonara, truffle tagliolini, lobster linguine, roasted beef tenderloin and tiramisù. The patisserie identifies tiramisu and Torta Gilli as signatures, while the cocktail list includes classics such as Negroni and Americano alongside Gilli creations. Seasonal ingredients mean individual dishes can change.

Gilli publishes daily opening from 08:00 to 24:00, Monday through Sunday. That is the venue schedule; a specific meal, pastry or cocktail may have a narrower service window or sell out. The operator invites reservations for breakfast, business lunch and aperitif by telephone. Use +39 055 213896 or [email protected], especially for a seated meal or a larger party.

The official dine-in menus checked here list products but no current prices. Online-shop prices cover takeaway, collection or delivery items and must not be treated as table-service prices. No per-person price band is therefore recorded. The address and contact details are operator-confirmed, but the current site does not publish a venue-specific step-free route, accessible-toilet description or entrance guidance. Contact Gilli directly before visiting if physical accessibility arrangements are essential.
