Reviews of Maialino Deli & Cafe

J. M.

Really nice place. Had a nice chat with the owner, radio playing in the background, couple of locals who’re clearly in regularly. Had the Lorne sausage & egg with some added bacon with brown sauce; orange juice; and a couple of cappuccinos. All excellent.

A pleasant Deli, when you are looking a coffee or lunch. Very kind and professional staff, really excellent customer service. Variety of sandwiches on offer, good prices too.

This hidden gem in Edinburgh’s west end serves some of the best food and coffee in this part of town. The lunch menu features unique Tuscan ingredients, freshly baked Italian rolls and some of the best flavour combinations you’re likely to find in a sandwich. Pro Tip: the double pancetta breakfast roll is a game changer. The mushroom, spinach and egg option is very good too! Claudio the owner is a great example of how small business customer service should be done. 5 stars.

We've had our lunch from here two days running and it'll be a miracle if I find a better sandwich anywhere else, anytime soon!! I've had the PLT both days as well as their soups and a buttered roll. The soups both days were really good and full of flavour and the buttered roll for dipping was soft, fluffy and well buttered. The PLT however......wow!! The single best sandwich I have ever tasted and that's no exaggeration!! I'd happily eat one for lunch every day!! Do yourself a 'Flavour' and check this place out!!

G. K.

The sandwiches and other foods here are made so well with the best products. They look good but especially they taste so good. Definitely worth give it a try and I am sure you will come here to upgrade your lunch experience to exciting!

They have the best breakfast rolls in the West End, no question about it. The pancetta roll really does have to be tried. Along with the good coffee and friendly staff it really is excellent. The offerings for lunch are also excellent, a wide variety of rolls and toasted sandwiches with a great range of cured meats and continental cheeses. Watch out for the meatball and tuscan sausage specials they do as well.

O. S.

This is by far the best sandwich shop I have been to in Edinburgh! Or maybe the world. The guys who run it get weekly imports of cheese and cold cuts from Italy and make all sandwiches fresh to order. The Piadina 2, daily special on Tuesday if one of the best toasted flat bread sandwiches I have ever tasted and I always try to make the pilgrimage every Friday for the Spicy Meatball. It also functions as a deli and you can buy cheese, cold cuts and antipasti to take home. Great for a Friday treat!

P. T.

Highly recommend this little cafe! Delicious sandwiches, friendly service and very reasonable prices to top it off. A real gem.

S. M.

One of the best places for lunch in Edinburgh. Ingredients are top quality and allowed to stand out in uncomplicated sandwiches. Can be busy at lunch time but definitely worth the wait, highly recommended.

C. R.

Delicious cured meat sandwiches, as well as soup and toasties. Some seats inside, but expect to take out at peak times. Try the roast squash salad if you want a healthy option, meatball subs are good on a Friday.

J. R.

One of the best lunch spots in all of Edinburgh. Delicious, freshly sliced delicatessen meats and cheeses in a sandwich. The fillings are gloriously uncomplicated and allow the quality ingredients room to breath, the chorizo and pecorino with aoli is amazing. Soups are always top notch too, freshly made and always changing. The smoked pork and pearl barley broth is superb. Staff are always friendly and personable, although expect to wait a little while as the ingredients are freshly sliced for your sandwich. Never had the time to have a proper meal from here, judging by the care and pride put in to what I have tried I can only assume they are top notch ingredients served simply and with a deftness that allows the food to speak for itself. You pay over the odds for the quality ingredients and freshly prepared food, this isn't always worth it but in Maialino I wouldn't hesitate.

I'll be honest - I'd never heard of this spot before a friend suggested it for a quick catch up over lunch but I have a feeling it will rapidly become one of my favourite spots for lunch. It's clean and freshly decorated - a large high table for sitting in, and a bench with a wall table for a quick snack on your own. The menu is large - a big variety of ciabattas (lovely bread, somehow soft and chewy at the same time compared to the often stale versions lots of cafes use) with all sorts of charcuterie and deli fillings, and a couple of good veggie options too. I would have liked to be able to mix and match, but with a slightly overwhelming range, it wasn't a problem finding something I liked! Prices were reasonable, I think it was about £3.80 for my sandwich.

C. B.

Beautiful cobbled street location and a cool Italian theme combines to make a great lunch stop. Sandwiches are priced very reasonably and taste fresh and delicious. Definitely coming back.

J. H.

Like a bacon roll? Try the panchetta instead, mind blowing! Also their sandwich selection is brilliant. Nice people, nice place, top coffee. A hidden gem.

M. B.

I think this is the best place where eat italian homemade sandwiches. The staff are very kind and funny. The prices are cheep ( around £4) and the quality is very high. Totally recommend.

Great deli with limited seating, so make sure you arrive early. Daily sandwich and soup specials are outstanding. Best sandwich shop in the area.
