    Can a sandwich change your life? In a single word: absolutely yes definitely. Women will find you irresistible, your employer will promote you, crowded streets will part in honor of your presence. Incredibly friendly crew here is going to create the best sandwich of your trip. Enjoyed a porchetta sandwich and tried a couple craft beers - huge selection of quality beers to choose from. Highly recommend dropping in! If you’re lucky, they may have a shirt in stock to purchase. You’ll be the highlight of the PTA meeting when you rep this place back home.

    God, where to start. Perfectly sleazy Italian men. Gripping decor. The hot sauce is a serious must. I was moved by the experience. Tip: try seducing a member of staff. I ended up with an extra handful of prosciutto and an authentic beer+ fag experience with these charmers. I’ll be back boys. And I know you’ll remember me 😘🥵.

    Super tasty sandwich. Very friendly staff and really nice atmosphere. Tons of options and really cool vibe. If you don’t see anything you like just make your own combo. The sandwich was fresh and warmed really nicely which made it extra tasty. Really solid. Had the bob Dylan.

    So yummy and a great variety of vegan options. Went with the roasted egg plant, arugula, basil and olive spread vegan option and it didn't disappoint!! Bread was lovely and fresh and the guy working there was so friendly and super fluent in English, even offered us a free beer and meat to try (although I declined☺️). Definitely would go back!

    We’ve been coming to Trastevere for years and happened upon this awesome find!! The selections are so fresh and tasty the bread is just awesome and the meats are fill with such good flavors. Not overbearing. Just good solid flavors. Two Santana sandwiches. My gosh they were so delicious. The staff are the nicest and generous with helping and just chatting with you as well.

    Fresh ingredients, LOTS of selection, good service. The only con is the lack of outdoor seating. I had the Pink Floyd and my husband had the Santana. THE BEST.

    Amazing sandwiches!! The theme is famous singers, and there is a different sandwich for each one. You can also make your custom sandwich if you would like. Prices are very cheap, hard to pass 9-10 euros, and the sandwich is very filling. The guy who made the sandwich was very nice and funny. Recommended!!

    A must visit in Rome! The prochetta sandwiches are great. It's a very small little shop where they make the sandwiches right in front of you. Delicious 😋

    Fantastic sandwiches. My girlfriend and I came in before drinks and the music and food was great. The man behind the counter gave us a great recommendation and it wasn’t the most expensive one as many places do! Open till early hours, will definitely be coming back on our trip! Thank you team at Donkey Punch!

    Tastiest porchetta sandwiches! The owner is really nice and gives tips about how to make your sandwich better, which you can make up from zero, choosing bread type, meat (they also have several vegan options!), cheese, sauce etc. To die for!😍

    Huge selection of panini for good prices. I got a Van Haven and it was very good and tasted authentic. The food is prepared fast, but it’s way better than the fast food sandwiches that we have in the US. They also have a good selection of beer. The person working there was very friendly.

    Loved it! Be aware there is often quiet a cue for sandwiches to be made so do not come hangry! We ended up going to the bar next door for a café and walked around the area while we waited. This spot came recommended by my boyfriends coworker! Fun sandwich shop that is not the typical tourist trap in this popular area. Heads up there’s limited seating so unless you get luck with a bar stool, be ready to stand/walk. The staff gave great recs for additions to the sandwiches! I had the Eric Clapton with added crudo and my man had the Eddy Van Halen. Both delish. Would come back!

    Stumbled upon this little gem when exploring Rome for the first time. I am solo travelling from near Manchester England so hearing Oasis is a little bit of home for me, plus I have always loved Oasis!! Visiting this place cured my home sickness and that’s before I even get onto the food, drinks and lovely people! I didn’t know what to order so I asked the chef to decide for me. It was insanely good and the honey ale was yummy 😋 food so fresh, tasty and put together with care and expertise 👌 I stayed for a second beer and could spend longer in there, but I probably should explore Rome haha! Conversation good made me feel very comfortable in this unknown Territory. I’m big art and music fan so this place was like a dream for me. Thank you, I will be back for sure. Great name by the way haha 👌

    Charming sandwich place with tons of options to customize your very own sandwich. You can choose your preferred bread type, vegetables, proteins, and sauce. Of course, you can also select from their wide selection of rock themed sandwiches, too.

    Amazing sandwiches. Get the porchetta, it seems to be their specialty. Very friendly personable staff too.

  • 4/5 David O. 11 months ago on Google
    Great selection of sandwiches and beer. I recommend the Purale beer. I docked one star as the avocado in my sandwich was not fully ripe enough.

  • 5/5 Katherine G. 11 months ago on Google
    We stayed at an Airbnb just above Donkey Punch so we visited multiple times. Y’all. This is the best little place. Amazing sandwiches with the freshest ingredients. The workers are so attentive and so so kind! The vibes are great inside. Definitely need to visit at least once!

    best ciabatta I had in my life, very cool borough, friendly staff

  • 5/5 Erin M. 1 year ago on Google
    Best sandwiches in Rome and in such a cool spot. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and fast. The prices are insanely good as well. 10/10 recommend!

  • 5/5 Faith J. 1 year ago on Google
    The rolling stones porchetta sandwich was delicious! I will go back before I leave rome.

  • 5/5 Echo D. 7 months ago on Google
    I loved this place, the two men working here when I visited were very nice, I really liked the feel of the place and as someone really into music I got a kick out of the mural and the sandwich names but the best part by far was the food. There’s a good selection of vegan options, I ended up ordering the Kiss and I don’t know what all went into that sandwich but what I wouldn’t do for another :D

  • 5/5 Kira M. 9 months ago on Google
    Super cool spot, the staff were super nice and the food amazing. Got a hot dog and designed our own sandwich and both were 10/10. Definitely we be back during our stay in Rome to try some of the sandwiches on their menu as they all look great

    Some of the best and most unique sandwiches in all of Italy. The staff is extremely kind and accommodating — they will go the extra mile to make your day. The Santana, Nirvana, and Donkey Burger Deluxe are exceptional but you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Super affordable and if you’re a student you can get a free drink.

    Best sandwich we had in Rome! Very friendly staff who speak good English. So many options and they are willing to make changes to fit dietary restrictions. I highly recommend this place. They are open late for a late night meal as well.
