The restaurant

Caffè Odeon, a place to nourish mind and body

Open daily: 11:30 AM - 12:00 AM

Caffè Odeon in Florence was born from the encounter with the Giunti publishing house, and from the project to give new life to the historic Odeon cinema, transforming it into a multifunctional cultural center.

The idea is simple and ambitious: to create a space open all day, like the great Mitteleuropean cafés, where you can enjoy dishes from different gastronomic traditions, a varied pastry selection, a carefully curated coffee service, as well as wines, cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages.

Eating, drinking a coffee or a good glass of wine have much in common with reading a book or watching a film: they are different ways of experiencing stories, through the senses. It is this connection that makes our dream a reality.

A place of history and beauty

Since 1922, the most beautiful films, the most distinguished guests, and the most remarkable events have taken the stage at the magnificent cinema-theatre in Piazza Strozzi, Florence. Come visit us.
