“This Worcester institution has been perfecting the art of Italian baking and deli sandwiches for decades, earning passionate loyalty from regulars who rave about their meatball and Italian subs as some of the best they've ever had. Beyond the stellar food, what keeps people coming back is the genuine warmth of the staff who make you feel like family, paired with an impressive lineup of fresh pastries, cannolis, and espresso that anchor this spot as a true community gathering place. Whether you're stopping in for a quick coffee and pastry or settling in for a full meal, Palma's delivers that rare combination of authentic Italian craftsmanship and authentic human connection.”

Glad I stopped by here. This place had one of the best Italian subs I’ve ever had in my life! Very very authentic Italian deli/bakery/cafe. Great place to grab food or just enjoy an espresso coffee. They also have some European products for sale.
