Inside Ditta Artigianale Via dello Sprone Specialty Coffee
Ditta Artigianale Via dello Sprone Specialty Coffee sits quietly near Ponte Vecchio, offering a modern take on Florence’s café culture without the usual tourist bustle. This spot blends the buzz of a specialty coffee shop with spaces designed for working, meeting, or simply enjoying a slower morning. Its location, tucked just off the Old Bridge, strikes a balance — close enough to key sights but removed enough to maintain a calmer pace.
Inside, two floors provide a mix of seating options that accommodate solo visitors hunched over laptops as well as small groups looking to chat. The upstairs room, in particular, feels set up for productivity with ample table space and natural light. Outdoors, the terrace extends the experience, inviting people-watchers and locals who enjoy a coffee break in the fresh air without wandering far from central Florence.
The coffee here is certainly the main draw, with a variety of carefully prepared options spanning from classic cappuccinos to more innovative drinks like the cafemisu—a cappuccino with hints of tiramisu made using ricotta, which gives it a distinctive creamy twist. For those who appreciate filter or V60 brewing methods, the preparation is meticulous and clearly aimed at showcasing the beans' nuances rather than masking them with sweetness.
Alongside the coffee, the menu caters to light breakfasts and brunchers with offerings such as scrambled eggs, smashed avocado toast, and croque madame. Pastries, while not the star, serve as a decent complement—best chosen by scanning the display first to decide what suits your mood. This place also leans slightly toward health-conscious choices, reflected in items like "healthy" croissants and salads, fitting for those who want a purposeful pause rather than a sugar fix.
Service here has a friendly, professional rhythm — staff members are attentive without being overbearing. Table service is available, which adds to the relaxed, sit-down vibe for those staying longer, though it’s worth noting that ordering from the counter and standing means a lower spend, a practical point especially for budget travelers or quick stops.
Overall, Ditta Artigianale Via dello Sprone appeals most to locals, remote workers, and coffee enthusiasts who value quality and atmosphere over tourist-centric hustle. Early to mid-morning or a lazy late afternoon are ideal times to settle in. Whether you’re here to power through emails or slow down with a unique coffee twist, this spot offers a refreshing contrast to the more historic, bustling cafés of Florence.
