With its slightly kitsch, pop art-inspired aesthetic, Rush Grande won’t appeal to everyone, but it has an undeniable sense of playfulness, and you can’t argue with a location like that.

The structure itself also fits into the category, and the wooden beams are a nice touch that keep the interior grounded in the area’s history, even if the contrast with the art is striking.

The Duomo Cathedral, the Uffizi Gallery, and the Palazzo Vecchio are all a genuine stone’s throw away. Home to some of the city’s most famous historic squares, this area is...
