The story
Tucked away in the hills of Vaglia, just outside Florence, Bottega delle Caselline serves what food vlogger Sentieri Golosi calls “ma le SCHIACCIATE più BUONE di FIRENZE quali sono?”—a question the video answers by pointing to this unassuming spot. Despite a recent change in management, the same baker remains, preserving a super traditional schiacciata that locals and visitors alike seek out.
Beyond the bread, this place also functions as a trattoria, offering a selection of excellent cured meats and cheeses. The combination of a neighborhood-friendly atmosphere and time-tested recipes makes it a quiet standout in the Florentine hills—a spot where simple ingredients and continuity keep the character intact.

Reviewers celebrate Bottega delle Caselline’s Schiacciata as the standout dish, praising its simple perfection. The overall vibe is warmly rustic, evoking authentic, comforting Italian home cooking.
“This schiacciata is made with a more traditional method — no oil in the dough, just oil and salt on top. You can tell it's cooked in a wood oven. It's soft but crunchy at the end, nice and fresh, tall, very flavorful and pleasant. If you put a pound of mortadella or prosciutto in it, it's the end of the world.”
