So nice we had to go twice, or actually come to this one once and the one next door a different time. The place next door (which is what I'm assuming the other Yelp page for I Fratellini, not I 2 Fratellini) is the OG place and the place you can buy alcohol from. Yes, you can buy it from this side but only when the one next door is open. But I wasn't in need of alcohol at 10am so it was ok. We happened to stay at an Airbnb across the street (literally 5 steps away), which I was excited for because I had I Fratellini on my radar before I booked the place, so we were able to get a sandwich and come upstairs and eat it. The place next door opens later at around 11am but we were starving after we saw David. We were just going to head back to our apt but noticed that this one was open earlier. Turns out they do this on purpose to catch more business, which I think is pretty smart. The menu and food quality is exactly the same as next door. The people working were so friendly and nice. They helped us pick the perfect sandwiches. The case is so beautiful with all the sandwich fixings. We didn't have a line for this occasion but it goes by fast and the proximity of the buildings shields you from most of the sun and all that so there were no issues.
If you're in Florence and looking for an easy and tasty sandwich while on the go, then Fratellini is the place to go. They have 2 locations (the second one is literally to the right of it) both are on a small side street near the shopping area. Both windows had 2-3 people behind the counter and can whip up was a bit undecided so they let me create my own. We both thought they were perfectly sized and tasted great. Highly recommend!
I was with my tour guide, and she asked me if I have any plans after the tour to explore Florence more. I told her that I was going to a sandwich shop recommended by friends. She said, "I hope it's not All'Antico Vinaio," and I embarrassingly responded that she was right. She said that she'll show me a better sandwich shop that is authentic, more affordable, and has a shorter line, leading me to Fratellini! So glad that she was with me because I would have not known about this place and what to order. I got #15, which is the finocchiona and is one of the menu favorites. It's salami with fennel seeds and cream cheese. It was unforgettably delicious, and I was full for the rest of the evening. Fun fact, finocchiona is a favorite of Macchiavelli, who was born in Florence. I also bought their family wine, which I wished that I had gotten more of because you will not find their wine anywhere else! I must come back so that I can eat their sandwich outside and enjoy a glass of wine, which is such a vibe in Florence.
Solid sandwich! The bread is a little more dense for my liking, but still pretty good and quick / easy to eat. The sandwich was super affordable and ranged from 5-7 euros! I asked for a recommendation because I honestly didn't know what to choose and they recommended something with truffle cream. The truffle cream was perfect. It wasn't too truffle it but enough to make this sandwich well worth it. Got an aperol spritz to wash it all down as well. There isn't much seating; only two small tables set up, but there's plenty of seating spots around the block!
Well worth the wait! We heard about lots of panino shops in Florence but decided to try this one, and I'm glad we did! It's a little shop right in the heart of the city. The line was quite long when we arrived, so prepare to wait... but they came around with menus, so you can spend the time deciding what to order. They have quite a large selection of pre-designed panini, and from that you can add or take away things. I got a sandwich with mortadella, burrata and the truffle sauce and it was delicious! If you're a truffle fan, I highly recommend. It's a tiny hole in the wall, so there is no seating... but it's centrally located, so you can bring them with you to anywhere in the city.
Came here to grab some sandwiches for lunch and there was a long line, but it was worth it and it went by quickly! Make sure that you look at their menu before getting to the front so that you don't hold up the line. I thought that the sandwiches was a perfect size for a midday lunch (considering I was having all three meals plus all of the gelato and pastries). It was the most affordable lunch that we had in the trip since the sandwiches were less than 5 euros!
Yeah, the hype is real. Just a few blocks from El Duomo in the heart of Florence, your perfect lunch awaits. When the line is long, you know it's good! And this is for takeaway sandwiches only, so it moves fast. 30+ options for sandwiches and you can't go wrong with any. All are a simple 4 euro - cheap and delish! If you're hungry, id recommend splitting another one with a friend so you can taste more than one. We got the: - prosciutto, soft cheese and arugula - salami and cream cheese - pork and truffle cream and all were incredible. Grab a stool out front or find another spot with a view, and you've got the ideal lunch!
Counter-service sandwich spot that's not to be missed! Okay, yes, I made this place a destination because Conan went there on a remote segment, but it's genuinely amazing. I tried the ham, goat cheese and rocket salad panino, as well as the tuna, tomato and onion one. At 4€ each, you really cannot go wrong.
