Panificio e panelle da Vittorio

This little bakery near the Church of Saint Cataldo is the spot locals swear by for panelle — those thin, crispy chickpea fritters that are a true Palermo street food staple. You build your own sandwich from whatever's on offer, prices are seriously low, and there are a few tables if you want to sit down and eat properly. Expect a queue — that's usually a good sign.
