Reviews Summary
La Bottega di Perugia is highly praised for its exceptional quality paninis, made with fresh, local ingredients. Diners rave about the authentic flavors, friendly service, and incredibly affordable prices.

"Amazing, tiny place. I cannot recommend this place enough. The sandwiches we top quality. The guy was so nice. Not really a place to sit down and eat but the piazza is a very short walk so that didn’t matter to us. The prices are great. I can’t wait to go back to Perugia mainly for a sandwich!!! Great place!!!!"

"This delicatessen in Perugia is a must if you're passing through. It’s the perfect spot to grab a sandwich and enjoy a glass of wine. They offer excellent products with a wide variety of options.
The staff is very friendly, and while the shop itself is quite small, being a traditional deli, you can take your sandwich to go and enjoy it outside or while strolling through Perugia. Prices are absolutely fair for the quality of what you get."

"Great experience and quality meat and cheese sandwiches. Very local experience. But be careful with their local wine - it's super alcoholic 🙈"
