Flò Lounge / Outdoor Bar

Oltrarno, Florence –

While the Piazzale Michelangelo is well known for offering the best views of Florence, the area is even more inviting during the summer when it becomes the site of Flò, a posh outdoor bar and lounge and one of the summer’s hottest spots for Florentines.

A short tented corridor leads trendy upscale patrons into an expansive outdoor oasis fitted out with various bars, seating, and lounge areas separated from each other by lush greenery and elegant sweeps of fabric, while a small dance floor curtained with silver metallic garland reflects the multicolored lights.

The décor, which changes slightly from area to area, includes candlelit lounges with summery wicker sofas or retro red cubes and black-and-white checkered benches, as well as design touches like a fairy-tale tree and projection screens showing fashion shows.

The more polished patrons can also reserve tables in the VIP area, where they can enjoy an exclusive vibe as they lounge in comfort on the modish white half-moon sofas and enjoy the stunning views of Florence.

Popular with sophisticated city dwellers dressed in the latest fashions, Flò offers a stylish scene and a true Florentine experience.
