Grab a sandwich at All'Antico Vinaio, the Florence takeaway shop with a perpetual queue. Pick your fillings, wait your turn in the quick-moving line, and eat a stuffed schiacciata on the go.

📖

Full description

All'Antico Vinaio is a takeaway-only sandwich shop close to the Galleria dell'Accademia and the statue of David, built around big Tuscan schiacciata sandwiches served cold rather than toasted. Reviews split between those calling these the best sandwiches in Italy and those finding them overhyped, but nearly everyone agrees the service is fast.

A queue is part of the experience at busy hours and thins out in the off-hours. With budget-friendly prices and a typical stop of about 20 minutes, it suits a quick lunch or snack between sights, eaten standing or on a nearby step.

Reviews

The best sandwiches I had in Italy! I loved this place so much, I’m so sad I can’t have it all the time. Quick service! It gets busy during the day but the line winds down in the off hours. Can’t recommend enough! The fresh ingredients are endless and the fresh sliced cured meat was amazing!
