    Hard working, multi-lingual, cheap, great service and quite funny (I said "hello", the counter guy said "hello" back, I laughed and he smiled - loses something in translation I think though). The front of house was efficacy personified and I loved her sharp and quick temperament - as I imagined all Italians to be - and she probably ensures single-handed this place is making money. Not that it wouldn't- my delicious sausage stuffed panini (almost too big to eat at lunch time) with a coke (with three other similar orders) cost me a shade over 30 euros (seated too) thus demonstrating exactly how good quality cafe food at reasonable prices should be done in this hyper-priced city. Worth the detour.

    Very kind staff. They gave us wine based on our sandwich choice. It was a good match. The wine was very good. The sandwich was a bit dry, but delicious.

    Best sandwich in Italy! I hear there is often a line now, believe me it is worth the wait.

    Stumbled on this place while looking for late breakfast and it was amazing. Schiacce were to die for and the service was friendly and nice. 5/5, if you are around definitely check it out!

  • 5/5 Memento M. 1 year ago on Google
    Founded and run by a lively group of young Florentines about 10 years ago, and now available in three different locations: on via Verdi, via Gioberti and via Pisana. I love this place for the quality of the ingredients, its fun, laid-back atmosphere, the fast service, and the local crowd. Go here for a glass of wine with a "schiacciata", a typically Tuscan salty flatbread (similar to focaccia), stuffed with cured meats, cheese, veggies, and spreads in any of the infinite combinations they offer. Also available: cheese and meat boards, and salads.

    Excellent and authentic panino made with high quality ingredients. Great staff and cool vibes. One of the best in town!

    Delicious sandwiches and wine!!! The service and atmosphere where awesome

  • 5/5 Michael S. 4 years ago on Google
    Do not go to any other panini or sandwich place. The ingredients they use here are fresher and higher quality. This was the most phenomenal lunch food I had in Florence. The staff was so kind and when I asked for an experience in Tuscan flavor they obliged.

  • 5/5 Laura C. 2 years ago on Google
    They let you customize your sandwich toppings, so I went for a vegetarian panino with mushrooms, truffle sauce, fontina, and mozzarella. Delicious, quality ingredients, and a good salty focaccia bread. Plus the staff were really friendly and the prices were affordable. If you want to skip the line at All’Antico Vinaio, come here!

  • 2/5 H. T. 1 year ago on Google
    My first schiacciatina and almost my last: just a boring sandwich, dry af. Disappointed so much i didn't finish it and went to try another place (retrobottega) where the quality was much better (although it's still a sandwich, guys, let's not get too crazy about it).

  • 5/5 Joe S. 1 year ago on Google
    Just ordered a couple of light and delicious sandwiches - Il Moro and La Laureata. Bread warm and toasted. Staff friendly and helpful. A delightful break from all the heavy 3-4 course meals we've been eating for the past 3 days. Enjoy your sandwich there or around the corner at the main square and watch interesting people walk by. Vivace Firenze.

  • 5/5 Bianca I. 2 years ago on Google
    Great experience! Had the mortadella sandwich and it was delicious! The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere was local. Would definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 Angeliki �. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious food, very friendly stuff. The "mielosa" panini is a must!

  • 5/5 Lora B. 1 year ago on Google
    We loved everything about this place from the delicious meat and cheese boards and sandwiches to the Aperol spritz and wines to the wonderful service from the nicest servers in Florence and such a great local atmosphere. It was our go to while in Florence. What a treat! Thank you!

    Love coming here for an aperitivo! Great vibe and staff

  • 5/5 Karl L. 1 year ago on Google
    It's been almost 3 years since we stumbled upon Lo Schiacciavino by chance when looking for Piazza Di Santa Croce. This is such a nice, laid back local establishment. The staff and locals were very friendly and welcoming. Great wine! Great food! Grazie mille for a great evening.

    Great sandwich and salad, atmosphere and service were brilliant. I would recommend and will return when possible.

  • 5/5 Nona G. 7 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    The products are extraordinarily fresh and high quality and they have a great selection of wines. The food is marvellous but the most important thing is the atmosphere. As a person who has spent descent time in Florence and visit many place I haven’t found such a vibrant atmosphere and staff . Marco and Taif are a great team and they always know what you exactly need. They make everything personal and put their entire pure energy in the food that they bring you. After few drinks it is inevitable to not become close with them and this is a sure sign that you will return again. Thank you for the great memories, good, wine and lots of laugh. Really a place worth trying even just on your own!!!!!

👍👍 You'll always see queues, but they are actually quite fast, so don't stress! They helped us with recommendations.
