La Bella Candeloro In Messina

I was expecting something a little better....

Do you know what “shrinkflation” is? Basically, it is when the price of a product is kept the same but the quantity of product is decreased. This successful one costs €1.50 and once would have been called mignon… now instead they are the “normal” size. Good yes, but small and expensive.

The best focacceria in Messina, both traditional and tasty variations.

Great place, I often stop there for lunch with my girlfriend and we love getting different things, and they're always delicious. We recommend it to anyone in the area, and my favorite dishes are the olive sandwich filled with ham, cheese, and tomato, and even the burgers have that homey, authentic flavor. My girlfriend especially loves their puff pastry, like a classic San Daniele! Excellent family-run business with courtesy, quality, and great prices!

Good rustics, shame about the rude counter clerk who cuts the focaccia, I often don't use them there for him.
