  • Solid Tuscan dishes served under beamed ceilings (avoid the modern room to the right) or on the piazza outside.

  • Since 1846 this has been the Lucca café of choice for musical and literary luminaries. The interiors are of the period, and the food and pastries are rather fine.

  • If you love fish, you’ll get large portions of it here.

  • Since 1858 this shop has been making the best cantucci (biscuits) in Italy. Buy some to take back home, along with a bottle of vin santo .

  • Italy’s top monthly antiques market. Over 600 dealers crowding the Piazza Grande and streets around it.

  • Sample refined cooking in a 15th-century palazzo. Sample, too, the enormous wine cellar, which ranges from little-known local labels to grand foreign wines.

  • Treat yourself – or a (very good) friend – to a present from this 1870 shop, selling classy Italian kitchenware ranging from contemporary porcelain to Alessi gadgets.

  • Solid Tuscan and Italian dishes at the best restaurant in the historic town centre.

  • Get great home-made gelato and decent coffee on San Gimignano’s main street.

  • The Etruscans crafted crystal in this area. Belli is the best of those workshops carrying on the tradition, producing both refined objects and souvenirs.
