Florence crowdfunding campaign starts to reopen iconic Amici Miei bar

A crowdfunding project has started in Florence that aims to reopen Bar Necchi, the iconic bar from the film Amici Miei, at 17R Via de’ Renai. Until two years ago, in fact, there was another bar in the environment, which closed its doors, and now Ydeo srl, the company specializing in merchandising that this summer opened the first “Supercazzola Store” a short distance away (at 21 Via de’ Renai), is managing the campaign that is to lead to the reopening of Guido Necchi’s bar where, in the film, Count Raffaello Mascetti, architect Rambaldo Melandri, journalist Giorgio Perozzi and Dr. Carlo Sassaroli used to hang out.

By participating in the crowdfunding campaign, on the website www.barnecchi.com, fans of the film will support not only the rebirth of a symbolic place in the city, but of what aspires to be a new gathering space, a living and vital place in the heart of Florence, a symbol of one of the most beloved films in the history of Italian cinema. “Bar Necchi,” emphasize the campaign organizers, “will be much more than just a bar where you have a coffee and don’t even notice: we want a place to meet, a home open to everyone, to culture, to music, to good food. We want a place where you will look forward to going to relax, to eat, to drink, to spend an evening with friends, the real ones. At Bar Necchi the day ’desina’ and in the evening you will dine enjoying themed dishes inspired by the film and its characters along with Florentine and Tuscan dishes accompanied by excellent cocktails from the Supercazzola Mule to the Cippa Lippa to the Antani Perfect without forgetting the legendary rinforzino. There will be no shortage of La Tognazza wines, created by the legendary Ugo and carried on by his son Gian Marco, dinners with our favorite actors, and fun Bar Necchi and Supercazzola T-shirts and gadgets. On Sundays, the Necchi has to take Carmen to the ’cine’ and therefore the bar will remain as per tradition closed, but we will not leave you alone: during the day we will have fun with the legendary zingarate every week with a different destination and tours its film locations in the heart of the city of Florence while in the evening we will organize screenings of cult films of Italian comedy in an outdoor location.”

Those who decide to support the campaign will receive in return gadgets and prizes depending on the amount donated: t-shirts and sweatshirts, the “SuperTazzola” mug, La Tognazza wines, stickers, books, aluminum water bottles, even guided tours of the film locations in Florence. Goal: to raise 20 thousand euros. And the campaign already seems well underway.
