I was told they would pay me money for it, so I am giving it 5 stars. Don't trust any other reviews either.

Pretty expensive for what you get, basically a DIY sandwich (as in choose your ingredients), 9€. Personnel was extra nice but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend. At this point just go to a regular restaurant lol.

Really good “fast but fresh” place in Lecce. The puccia comes in a freshly oven-baked bun and it’s filling and generously stuffed with fresh ingredients. Big plus: the fries are also cooked fresh, yet the waiting time is short—just a few minutes. The staff were friendly, smiling, and helpful, and they spoke English. The place was clean and tidy, and there’s a terrace to sit outside. Price-wise it’s not the cheapest (we paid €17 for a puccia + a pint of beer + fries with ketchup), but considering local prices and the quality, it felt fair. Honestly, I can’t think of anything negative—perfect for a quick lunch, and it’s open even during siesta.
