Pane e Salame

The other reviews weren’t exaggerating with words like “exceptional.” These were genuinely some of the best sandwiches I’ve had in my life. The quality hits immediately - they make their own fresh ciabatta, and the fresh ingredients truly elevate the whole experience.

✅ Service & Experience
• Staff were warm, friendly, and patient, and actually helpful. We didn’t feel rushed during our meal.
• They guided us through the menu properly, including drink pairings.
• They were very allergy-aware, double-checking ingredients for me, which I really appreciated.
• Overall very welcoming, attentive, and relaxed.

🥪 Food
• We ordered two vegetarian sandwiches, and both were fantastic. I had Colosseo + partner had Navona
• They have a strong vegetarian selection, including egg-free options for anyone who needs that.
• Sandwiches were generous, balanced, and the homemade ciabatta was the star.

🍹 Drinks
• Aperol Spritz for me - well-made and balanced.
• White wine for my husband - staff helped us pick.

📍 Location
• Literally one lane away from the Trevi Fountain - incredibly central and easy to access. Considering the location (usually touristy and overpriced), the pricing feels very fair.

💶 Pricing
• €1 per person table charge (normal for Rome).
• Our total was €30 for: 2 sandwiches, 1 Aperol Spritz, 1 white wine
• For the quality, freshness, and the location, this felt like a good value.

🪑 Seating & Atmosphere
• Both indoor and outdoor seating available.
• We chose outdoor; the space heaters made it warm enough to be comfortable.
• Indoors looked equally cozy.
• They have washrooms for customers inside - not the cleanest, but works.

All in all, a place that nails flavour, service, and value — absolutely worth a visit. Fantastic sandwiches, kind staff, great hospitality, and fair pricing.

Highly recommend.

Best quick bite place in the city of Rome. It was so good we went back here 3x! Service was quick and staff were friendly. Food taste amazing, bread was perfectly crisp on the outside and soft inside, toppings were generous. They also have an english menu so it was convenient. They have paper plates, forks, napkins, balsamic, olive oil on each table, making it convenient for us to grab what we need. 10/10 recommend!

Went here on a recommendation, absolutely loved it! Tables inside and out, staff were attentive, quick service and friendly. The grazing board was incredible, great choice of meets, cheese, chutneys etc. Chianti was very nice & €13 a bottle. It’s literally around the corner from the Trevi fountain and perfect for a relaxing lunch, didn’t feel touristy and was certainly great value & quality!
