  What visitors say

  The Santa Croce setting is wonderful and for many Florentine families it is a yearly tradition, with food from various countries. Critics find little real craftsmanship, wholesale goods, above-average prices and a market that never changes.

  Lovely for the atmosphere and a standing dinner - not for craft shopping.
