The new Café Ginori project brings the timeless elegance of Ginori 1735 to the world of hospitality, and will be launching its first concept at Florence’s iconic St. Regis hotel. Combining nearly three centuries of porcelain craftsmanship with a modern culinary twist, the café offers a dining experience steeped in Italian heritage.
Guests will dine surrounded by Ginori’s Domus home decor and Oriente Italiano wallpaper, enjoying a curated menu of Italian classics presented with the brand’s signature 'Art of Plating.' From breakfast to aperitivo, each dish will be served on Ginori’s exquisite tableware collections, including 'Il Viaggio di Nettuno' and 'Labirinto,' elevating every bite into an artful moment.
The café is not just about dining -- it’s also a shopping destination where patrons can purchase Ginori’s celebrated collections. Following this Florence debut, Café Ginori will expand globally, with Abu Dhabi’s St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort opening in 2025 and more locations planned worldwide.
