Stef Condello

There is almost always a line out the door, but Stef makes sandwiches that are worth the wait.

Stef left behind a career as a primary school teacher to open a small sandwich shop on Lygon Street with his mum, Diana. Under the name Stefanino Panino, he crafts made-to-order sandwiches that sell out daily with delicate cuts of Italian cured meat and fresh toppings.

Since then, he's set up shop at Collingwood Yards with a retro-inspired deli space where he continues to produce the best hand-crafted panino the city has to offer.
