What Verdiana Vespa dislikes about Babae:
Cute local we took both drinks and food, chips coming with the cocktail were old and with a nice hair inside, the cutter was good and the ribollita more or less, the drink was good. The unique dish could be better treated. View all feedback.
Omg! This is the best cheesecake I have had in my life! The place is beautiful and the service is excellent. What a wonderful experience. The prawn pasta was one of the best meals I have had in Italy.
Very cute restaurant. I came for the wine window experience but it was closed upon arrival after 9. I decided to dine in and ordered an Aperol Spritz, shrimp pasta and cheese cake. Enjoyed my meal very much . The ambiance is a vibe, I’ll definitely return when in Florence.
I was walking by here on the way to get some ink and saw a short line for the wine window. It may be the basic bihh in me, but I simply couldn't pass up the experience of being handed an aperol spritz through a tiny little window. haha. If you don't think a wine window is cool, or at least see the appeal, then you're just a hater smh. This place is away from much of the tourist traffic, so felt a bit more authentic. I made some Australian local Italian friends in line, and we ended up all drinking together and just talking about where we come from. Even though I'll likely never see them again and only remember one of their names, for those 20 minutes we are all fully present just talking about the different worlds we come from. These short interactions are one of the reasons I love to travel so much, you really get all different types of view points and perspective and get to take them with you moving forward. 7 or 8 euro depending on what drink you get is also amazing. I will 100% be back here before my trip is over! IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_
Our first wine window experience was fun. The quality of the wine was exceptional and the orange wine was a lovely change to the norm. We did visit another wine window which was more central but the service and wine was nowhere near as good as here. Also, this gives you a chance to walk around a different part of Florence which is equally beautiful. We had sandwiches to mop up the wine, they were just ok. 10/10 for the wine window experience and 5/10 for the sandwiches
What a wonderful discovery! Original destination for drinks/apperitivi was closed. There was a crowd of people in the street with glasses of wine and spritzes in their hands, so I wandered in that direction. Turns out there is one of the wine windows at the place I discovered was called Babae. I sat inside waiting for friends to go to a lecture and left myself in the capable hands of the waitress to select an apperitivi (Il Vegetariano) for me to have with my glass of Vermentino. Delicious! And the Vermentino was very nice! The interiors are comfortable and eclectic, with various types of seating, located on the main floor and an adjacent raised (and more intimate) room. Later my friend and I returned (after the lecture) to have a bit of dinner, and though we had no reservation, they tucked into a spot next to the wine window. From there we were able to observe the operations from the inside and had a lovely chat with the server who attended to the ringing of the bell. Note this wine window has been in service since the plague of the 1300 's so it 's the real deal. For food and drink we selected the Spaghettini with gamberi and the house red. Once again, delicious and a nice portion (just the right amount of gamberi). The sauce was delicate and flavorful, and the wine excellent. The people working at Babae were helpful and generous with their time and suggestions, even though they were swamped with customers. We will probably go back. Babae is located close to the Arno and a lot of the lovely shops and sights in the area, just one street down from the Lungarno, between Via Serragli and Via Maggio. Also, just a short walk from the British Institute Library (my shameless plug for that wonderful institution). Enjoy!
