    Very convenient way to grab a quick bite and glass of wine, to then enjoy them while looking at the beautiful buildings and people passing by. Unfortunately the street smells like piss. The sandwich was cold and a bit dry and the ingredients cheap. The "roast pork ham" was just sliced ham from a grocery store.

    Very famous pizza (Panini) shop in Florence. The menu has many options (over 20 options) of different fillings. The panini only cost €4. There is always a queue so you might have to wait. There is not table service. They put some chairs outside in the street for people to set, eat, and go. The staff working there are very lovely and the shop has a great location. Definitely recommend to stop by and try their paninis.

    This place does not look like much from the outside, but the food is good. Open fire grill, lots of meat to choose from. Ok service by a semi english speaking lady, but the bbq master chef is very friendly and speaks english. No aircondition is worth mentioning, so be careful, it gets hot inside. The price levels compared to quality and service are in my view a bit high, but sure worth a visit.

    Great and cheap sandwich in the heart of Florence. This is definitely in my top 3 choices for sandwiches in Florence. Not my number 1 but it’s up there. I ordered number 28 (roast pork ham with truffle cheese) and it was delicious. You can’t go wrong with this cheap and yet delicious sandwich.

    Best “schiacciata” you could ever find in Florence! Perfectly crispy from the outside, with vegetarian and vegan options available. I love this place, it’s so genuine, being managed by the same family from 1875, generation after generation, the feel and the whole experience in this place is outstanding! Strongly recommended!

    I’m in Florence for a week and I have already been here twice. May go again. Best sandwich I have ever had. I got the number 1. Update: I went here 3 times in my stay in Florence and now try to recreate these sandwiches at home at least once a month.

    Great little sandwich shop in a central location. We came here twice. Very convenient they have someone handing out little menus that you can look over before you get up to the front of the line. Would recommend to anyone in the area.

    I've heard about this place and wanted to check it for myself, but every time I was in the area there was a long line of people waiting for a sandwich. Finally I got there and the line wasn't long, because it was early, and I was maybe 5th in line. The line moves pretty quick, and we waited maybe a couple of minutes before it was our turn. There is a menu on the wall where you stand in line and also some printed menu for you to grab next to the door, so by the time it was our turn we knew what we wanted. We got the wild boar with butter, and the salami with artichokes. After you order and pay, €10 for 2 sandwiches and 2 bottles of water, you get a ticket with a number, and you wait for your order to be called. There are some stools to sit, if you can catch one, or just walk around the corner and sit on the stairs. We got our order after about 10 minutes. The bread is fresh and warm, and the ingredients are high quality. Simple sandwiches but prepared the right way. The place is operated like a tourist trap, and most of the crowd are tourists, but it is absolutely not. The quality is great and the price is more than fair, and you get good value for your money. There are many places to get a sandwich in the city, this is definitely one of the better ones.

    Incredibly sweet people serving the most amazing sandwiches I’ve ever had. I had the #28 I believe. It was ham with truffle cream. I’m not sure I’ve ever tasted a sandwich so flavorful with such simple ingredients.

    Pretty good sandwiches. Don't think it would be worth lining up if the line is long though. I had the roasted pork with green sauce. Sauce was amazing! Wished it had more meat though, but can't complain for the price they offer.

  • 5/5 Hamdi D. 8 months ago on Google • 28 reviews
    The staff is helpful and polite. The bread is fresh and tasty. The sandwich was excellent in every way. The white wine, which costs two euros a glass, was excellent. You should undoubtedly stop by this tiny to-go café when in Florence.

    Great hole-in-the-wall spot for a quick lunch. We happened upon I Fratellini on the way to the Basilica of Santa Croce and ordered two absolutely delicious sandwiches for only 5 Euros each. You can customize and add ingredients for only 50 cents more, but with 30 options it will be difficult to find a menu item that doesn’t fit your preference. Staff are super efficient and very friendly, and there are many stools right outside for you to quickly enjoy your sandwich. I highly recommend the #28, prosciutto with truffle cream. Also great aperol spritz and wine options to have with your food. There may be long lineups depending on when you arrive, but it goes by very fast.

    go there and meet the kindest chef on earth, don’t look at menu because his recommendations are always right and correct, ask about wine so you will get the best one - super nice place in small street for small and bigger hunger ! very nice spot - sending a lot of kisses and love !

    Hole in the wall shop that offers a large variety of amazing panini. The people there take care in what they do and it shows. I ate there three times in three days and was always very satisfied. I recommend trying the number 28 ( the crema tartufata was soooo tasty) but i don't think you can go wrong with anything. Recommended without question

  • 5/5 Rovik R. 1 year ago on Google
    Classic hole-in-the-wall deli that’s Erbes a wide variety of sandwiches and drinks, all for four euros per wich! I had the porchetta which was pretty good, but a bit dry. Luckily I had a glass of 1,50 euro wine to wash it down! Line moves relatively efficiently.

  • 5/5 Cathy M. 1 year ago on Google
    Highly recommend the number 1! My husband also enjoyed the 16 as well. There was no wait around lunchtime and the staff were friendly and helpful.

  • 4/5 Philippe B. 1 year ago on Google
    Located in the old town, the tiny spot offers some tasty sandwich. The success of this place is measured by the queue at rush hours and this is well justified. Great sandwich priced at 5 euros. You can additionally wash it down with red wine. Efficient serving staff. On the down side, sandwich could be more generously stuffed.

  • 5/5 Cecilia C. 10 months ago on Google
    Great aperitif at one of the quirkiest tiny bars of Firenze. Enjoyed spritz and crostini following the recommendation of a “fratellino” (little brother), top quality served with passion and pride for the family business. Just when you are looking for authenticity in this busy wonderful city!

  • 5/5 Maya 11 months ago on Google
    I loved this place!! Way better than the famous sandwich shop down the street, in my opinion. For some reason, the cream cheese they used really struck a cord with me. Very light and refreshing. I got the no.1 on their menu (proscuitto crudo, crema di formaggio e rucola). Also, I really appreciated how they had English descriptions.

  • 5/5 Amber R. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious food, wonderful & impressive service, plus at a great price. Got the # 28 and was very happy, would definitely add the sun dried tomatoes to any sandwich there, adds great flavor and moisture.

    Such delicious sandwiches a stones throw away from Uffizi. Amazing service, so friendly and fun. Went twice within a few days and the line moves very quickly so don’t be put off if there are a few people standing around! Would highly recommend. Also many vegetarian options.

  • 5/5 Hadi S. 1 year ago on Google
    Super fast sandwiches very reasonable price. Lots of choices. Really enjoyed number 9 and 30.

  • 5/5 Beth Z. 1 year ago on Google
    Simple, yet fantastic. The staff was so welcoming. This is really a hole in the wall, primarily a take-away sort of place. However, there were a few outdoor tables. The staff welcomed us to sit and brought our bottle of wine (5 euros) to the table. We enjoyed three excellent paninis and the wine for 17 Euro. We will definitely be back!
