Vecchia Genova

This is a classic little sandwich shop with a small counter behind which your delicious sandwich will be assembled, and a handful of stools along the opposite wall for dining in (such as it is). This is really a takeaway business. And what a business it is! They make sandwiches and that’s it. Created with top quality ingredients on pillowy focaccia. I had turkey with an artichoke cream and the big guy had mortadella (his fave) with straciatella cheese and pistachios. We were both very happy and quite full as these sandwiches are big. Grab lunch there - you’ll be glad you did!

Fantastic sandwiches. The owners are very nice and you can watch them make the sandwiches on the spot. Large and worth every penny!

This place is an absolute gem! The focaccia sandwich is a masterpiece with the flavor of incredibly fresh, high-quality ingredients. The service was just as impressive: warm and attentive. Stopping here truly became the highlight of our day in Genoa. If I could recommend just one spot in this city, it would be this place without hesitation! We’re already dreaming of our next visit, thank you for giving us such an unforgettable gastronomic experience!

Good flavors and quite fresh. We tried the vicoli (very good pork) and the carmine (more salty). Very fast service as well

5-Star Review for Vecchia Genova What a gem of a sandwich shop! I’m by no means an expert on Italian food, but the sandwich I had here was absolutely incredible. The bread was light and fluffy, and the ingredients were super fresh and full of flavour. The pesto and potato cream added something really special—it took the sandwich to another level! For just €7, the portion was more than generous, and the quality far exceeded my expectations. What really stood out was the care and attention the guy behind the counter put into making it—you could really see the love that goes into every sandwich. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favour and stop by. It’s well worth it!
