#Raw

Oltrarno


Should you desire a turmeric, ginger or aloe vera shot or a gently warmed, raw vegan burger served on a stylish slate-and-wood platter, innovative Raw hits the spot. Everything served here is freshly made and raw – to sensational effect. Herbs are grown in the biodynamic greenhouse of charismatic and hugely knowledgeable chef Caroline, a Swedish architect before moving to Florence.

There are cold-pressed juices, smoothies, soups, wraps, lentil burgers too, all to eat here – in a beautifully sleek and soothing, candlelit space – or to take away. Check the day's menu on Raw's Facebook page.
