‹ Where to eat alone in 50 cities › Florence
Table for one · Florence, Italy
Florence rewards one: wine windows and wine bars by the glass, a lampredotto counter in the market, and trattorias that seat you with strangers.
Lunch is the solo meal here. Shared-table trattorias like Mario are lunch-only and half the price of dinner.
San Lorenzo · Via Rosina 2r
Wherever they squeeze you in at the shared tables
Weekday lunch only, arrive by noon; Friday is fish
Get: Ribollita, then the bistecca if it's on or the roast of the day
A family trattoria since 1953 that seats everyone with strangers, so arriving alone gets you in faster.
Walk in, lunch only
