What travellers are saying
- Henry M13 contributionsLocated in the midst of the flea market, the entrance was tucked away behind the facade of stores selling leather goods and jewellery. The market was less than crowded and it was not a challenge to settle down. We tried the beef brisket and the roasted chicken from different vendors, both with a side of potatoes and salad. The brisket was mouthwatering, with a nice char to it. The chicken was juicy and tender. We finished the meal with gelato, an italian staple. Overall the food was delectable and appetising.Written August 25, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Melanie TNew York City, NY6,937 contributionsThis market is not in the city centre and it's a bit further, but still walking distance. We came by just after 9:30 on a Friday. There are fewer crowds here, probably because of its location, which makes it a prime spot for food tours. We didn't do one but we just wandered around ourselves. There are fewer options here than Mercato Centrale but the trade off is that you don't have to deal with all the people. They sell a lot of the same stuff - fresh produce, meats, and some vendors selling food. We tried the tripe sandwich here, which wasn't as good as the other market, but still delicious. We also bought some strawberries outside, which might have been some of the best strawberries I've ever eaten in my life, so definitely don't sleep on those.
Mercato di Sant'Ambrogio is worth the trek!Written June 10, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Be aware you won't find high fashion designer clothes but you will find an interesting array of really inexpensive clothing - shirts, sweaters, jackets, socks, etc. I was disappointed, however, that the vendors begin packing up around noon, particularly if it is raining. Plan to be there early.Written November 22, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Melanie TNew York City, NY6,937 contributionsAfter Mercato Centrale, Mercato del Porcellino is another popular market to visit in Florence. It translates to 'Market of the Little Pig' because there is a bronze boar statue out in front. You're supposed to feed it a coin, and rub its snout for luck/make a wish. You can also do some shopping while you're at it. It's nowhere as big as Mercato Centrale, which can be a good thing. At Mercato Centrale, all the vendors are trying to get your business but here, you can kind of just walk around. There are way fewer stalls, so it's not as overwhelming. They do sell a lof of the same stuff as Mercato Centrale but you may find a few different items. I ended up seeing a wallet I liked/bought here, whereas I didn't see any I liked at Mercato Centrale. However, there are items that are more expensive at this market, so you really have to shop around, if you have the time. If you don't have time for both markets, I would say skip this one since the selection is smaller.Written June 10, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Andrea D8 contributionsI was at your store on 4-18-24 and bought a leather jacket for $360 euro to be custom made, and I am wondering when it will ship?

- TheShisTel Aviv, Israel42,744 contributionsThis is a typical market street, leading to the central market building.
Most of everything here is fake, so keep that in mind while haggling with the stall owners.Written December 24, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

They had a large selection of styles and sizes. Caterina helped me find two pairs that I love, great quality and comfortable. They were kind enough to ship them to the states for me since I was traveling for another two weeks and couldn't fit them in my luggage. There is a shipping fee but it was worth it to have these great boots.
Thanks Rony and Caterina!Written May 29, 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
