Then we saw the line ups starting for the sandwiches and decided "why not" lets give it a go.
This was the best decision we made in Florence because the sandwiches were delicious and so fresh. We ended up eating here at least four times in our short stay in Florence because it was so good!
I would highly recommend to anyone staying in the area! If you go first thing in the morning you should arrive just in time for their fresh...
