Little gem in a big city! This place is a small little place but the staff is very friendly and the coffee is very tasty. I had a chocolate croissant and it tasted very delicious. I love that they have all these recipe books lying around. read more

It's legendary so there was a line but the gentleman playing music in the square made the time pass by enjoyable. Once in the shop you could see how fast the staff were moving from taking orders to checking customers out so best to have an idea of what you want as to not hold up the pace. First bite was prosciutto heaven. They did not skimp on any of the ingredients. Mozzarella for day and finishing off with lovely pesto. Absolutely impressive!

This place was so incredible, we went TWICE during our 3 day stay in Rome!…read more We had tried the other "super famous" Italian sandwich spot earlier in our trip and it did NOT deliver. Pane e Salame, however, was delicious!!!! On our first day in Rome, my husband and I decided to search for a lunch spot nearby (we were staying near the Trevi fountain), and I found this place had pretty good reviews. We got there about an hour after it opened and requested a seat outdoors. They have a tiny patio across from their entrance, but they fit quite a bit of people in it! We initially wanted to order two sandwiches to try more items, but I'm glad we just shared one - they were big and filling! We also had the small charcuterie board to share which was plenty of food for us both. We shared a bottle of rose, and all in all, we paid under $50 (usd) - what a steal! This was the perfect first meal in Rome. The food was incredibly fresh, the service was great, and the outdoor seating allowed us to experience the streets of Rome. 10/10 - would absolutely go back.

Our sandwiches were cut in half and one half was big enough to make the average person full. We got five sandwiches for only about €30! The place was not a tourist trap, but i have to say, the seats at the booth were uncomfortable to me, and the place was a bit small. Sorry i do not have photos. But overall, I would recommend to go here. Amo questo posto! Io e la mia famiglia abbiamo preso diversi panini e li abbiamo condivisi tutti. Abbiamo preso un grande piatto di cibo che era abbastanza grande da sfamare 10 persone! I nostri panini erano tagliati a metà e una metà era sufficiente per saziare una persona media. Abbiamo preso cinque panini per solo circa 30€! Il posto non era una trappola per turisti, ma devo dire che i sedili nel booth (il tavolo con divanetti) erano scomodi per me, e il locale era un po' piccolo. Scusate se non ho foto. Ma nel complesso, lo consiglierei di andarci.

People served poor quality high priced food. We learned our lesson for this second trip and are using Yelp too. Thanks to Yelp and Pane & Vino, our first meal in Rome was fantastic!!!! All the sandwiches have this incredible and well seasoned juicy roast of pork except one which is the burger. Each sandwich has a different bread...red is colored with tomatoes from Mt Vesuvius. Black is colored with squid ink (don't worry there's zero squid flavor). Yellow is colored with Turmeric! My husband got the burger. It was absolutely delicious! I got the special...HELLO! Incredible and big so you can totally share it or take your time they don't push you out. There's alcoholic options along with sodas and waters to drink. The owner is wonderful! He refers to his restaurant as his house (so he'd never charge a fee for you to sit and eat there) and his menu items, creations, are his "children." He speaks 6 languages fluently so no worries if you don't speak Italian, he also speaks English, Spanish, French, and then 2 others that aren't Latin based. (He also speaks an additional 2 dialects not so fluently but hey, he's doing well in my book and very helpful to the 4 different couples and families that were in his tiny restaurant while we were there. Eat here afterwards before your Coliseum tour. Also, he's happy to give you suggestions for the area...he recommended a gem nearby of ST Clementine basilica to go check out some newly discovered ruins! It was incredible and we would have never known without him offering. We loved the food so much that we made it our last meal before leaving Rome as well!
A yummy thing happened on the way to the Colosseum …read more.. Pane & Vino is a tiny sandwich shop near il Colosseo that specializes in local porchetta (stuffed pork loin) and is run by the friendliest owner of all time. He gets to know every customer on a first name basis. I'd go back more to see him than to have a sandwich. Seriously, he's pretty awesome. The menu is simple and focused on sandwiches featuring their famous porchetta so we tried two recommendations from the peppy proprietor. While waiting, I got a miniature bottle of Chardonnay and my spouse sipped a Coke Zero. The Traiano Porchetta sandwich (12€ - 4 stars) is an original creation of the out-going owner with a mighty Mustard-flavored blend of Roast Pork, Sun-dried Tomatoes, and Grilled Eggplant. I like mustard and, therefore, liked this specialty much more than my wife, but we ended up ignoring portions of the so-so bun. Pane & Vino Special Porchetta (12€ - 4 stars) was a huge sandwich with the sliced Roast Pork Porchetta plus Mozzarella Cheese, Grilled Eggplant, Grilled Peppers, Mushrooms, Lettuce, and Mayo on classic Italian Pane. It needed more mayonnaise or a sprinkle of balsamic and olive oil for my tastes, but there was no denying it was a hearty hero. There are lots of pane bread and sandwich shops in Rome, but there is only one -- Pane & Vino -- run by the most welcoming of owners ever. If I'm in the neighborhood again, I'll be sure to stop in for a casual chat and some yummy porchetta sandwiches on the way to the Colosseum.
Absolutely worth the hype. This was one of my favorite sandwiches ever! Second and third generation…read moreowners Claudio and Luca run this tiny storefront near Piazza del Popolo. When I arrived there was no line, so maybe I got lucky, just one couple in front of me already inside the shop. Take a number and wait your turn. It's worth it. Sandwiches are made on pizza bianca, a crisp and chewy flatbread native to Rome. They will fill your sandwich with whatever you like, and then weigh the sandwich to price it out. I got mortadella, stracciatella, pesto and sun-dried tomatoes. The sandwich was phenomenal, so delicious and memorable that I recreated it when I got home to the US, bread and all. The sandwiches may seem simple but the ingredients are the best around which really takes things to the next level. Don't miss it if you're in Rome.

It was delicious as it had porchetta, caramelized onions, dried tomatoes, basil, and garlic mayo. Only deducting 1/2 star because there was not as much meat as pictured on the menu and the sandwich is looked smaller than the picture. However, they have lots of really cool beers if you're into that. They also give out stamp cards for ordering regularly and I love that the stamp is a donkey!

Very cute eclectic little spot! They have many choices including vegetarian! You choose; they cut in sizable squares heat it up n serve!

As soon as we sat down, the waitress asked us what we wanted and she came back three times in the span of five minutes so I definitely wish I had more time to breathe and look at the really large menu. I got the vegan sandwich and it actually blew my mind that it was vegan. The cuts of meat were so realistic and the vegan Parm also tasted so close to the original. Altogether, if you had just gave me the sandwich and I was eating it I wouldn't have even questioned that it was vegan. The sandwiches here are so delicious, I would definitely come back.
