Il Pipistrello
About
Pizzeria Il Pipistrello has been a Florentine favorite for more than three decades, offering a warm, authentic atmosphere and a menu that showcases local culinary traditions. The kitchen is dedicated to classic Tuscan‑style pizzas, prepared with high‑quality ingredients such as buffalo mozzarella, fresh basil, and locally produced cured meats. Each pie is baked in a brick‑stone oven that imparts a crisp, smoky flavor, and the menu also features seasonal salads, fresh seafood dishes, and an assortment of gluten‑free options for guests with dietary restrictions. The restaurant is designed to feel like a local tavern, with a lively kitchen that invites diners to watch their pizzas rise and a cozy dining area that accommodates families and couples alike. The establishment stays open from 19:30 until midnight every day—except Tuesday, when it is closed for a brief break. This late‑night schedule makes it a popular spot for after‑dinner drinks or a relaxed weekend meal. For those who prefer a quieter setting, the dining room offers table service, while a small outdoor patio provides a pleasant option for al fresco dining in warmer weather. Whether you’re a pizza enthusiast looking for a genuine taste of Tuscan craftsmanship, a family searching for a friendly place to enjoy a meal, or a vegetarian seeking a well‑prepared dish that caters to your needs, Il Pipistrello delivers quality, atmosphere, and excellent service—all in the heart of Florence.
