Palermo
Panini go glam at Pan X, a contemporary, sit-down sandwich joint with a dizzying list of eat-and-go options. It offers a wide choice of breads, including gluten-free and ancient-grain varieties, plus no shortage of vegetarian and vegan bites. Hamburgers (€4 to €9.50) are available, along with craft, gluten-free and non-alcoholic beers.
Pan X sits on a bar-lined street, making it handy for a quick pre- or post-crawl feed.
