Such a hidden gem! Firstly, the service was impeccable as soon as we walked up. We don’t eat pork, and the staff immediately picked up on it when we asked about the meatball sandwich. They laid out all their beef, chicken, and veggie options for us. I loved how welcome they made us feel by talking us through the whole menu. We got the steak asado sandwich, a buffalo chicken sandwich, a tomato soup, and the kale Caesar. Everything was a 10/10! The quality of the bread SHONE and the tomato soup was so flavorful.

Their porchetta is truly delicious. A bit pricy, but definitely a worthwhile treat. Kudos to whoever picked out the decor as well. The down to earth atmosphere is clear and very well executed.

I stopped by Meat & Bread for lunch while visiting Austin for work. I only had a short break and loved that it was within walking distance from my office. After seeing all the positive reviews, I decided to give it a try.
The place is small, clean, and has a really welcoming vibe. The staff were extremely friendly and recommended their signature Porchetta sandwich. It definitely had great flavor and texture. It was a little oily for my taste, but still very good overall.
I’d definitely come back the next time I’m in Austin for lunch.

Delicious sandwiches. Came in from Chicago and we were craving a good sandwich. Loved the chili aioli dip. All the ingredients were high quality. Pricey place but great option

After hearing only good things about Meat and Bread, myself and some friends decided to give it a try for a week day lunch.
It’s a cute little spot on the 1st floor of the 360 Condos with both indoor and outdoor seating. Offering order ahead and counter service, the line moves quickly. The employees were incredibly friendly and helpful as we asked some questions about the menu.
We got the Porchetta, Buffalo Chicken, and Eggplant Parm sandwiches along with a side of the Calabrian Chili Aioli.
They’re known for their Porchetta and we see why. That sandwich was phenomenal in both texture and flavor. The Buffalo Chicken was a good mix of spicy and tasty. The Eggplant Parm was very good as well and had a great ratio of tomato to cheese to herbs.
I look forward to coming back and trying the Meatball sandwich and more.

Amazing grilled cheese and tomato soup. So homey. Very simple but done very very well. Great staff. Highly Recommend!

I first came across this place last year while visiting from Phoenix. The person in front of me in line bought the very last porchetta sandwich. While the sandwich I got instead was good, the sight of that porchetta stuck with me.
On a recent return trip to Austin, I made it a mission to come in early and finally get my prize. I am so glad I did!
The porchetta sandwich is, without exaggeration, one of the top three sandwiches I have ever had in my life. It was absolutely incredible. We have nothing close to this back in Phoenix, so Meat and Bread will be a definite ritual for me every single time I’m in Austin. A must-visit!

I had to check this place out myself based on the rave reviews. They are not wrong. The sandwich was delicious and the food fresh, moist, and different than other sandwich shops. Parking was challenging, but there is a near by parking garage you can pay to park. The staff were friendly and caring. I had the Porchetta and it did not disappoint my wife had a grilled cheese with buffalo chicken which was also good. I was going to take photos before biting in but I couldn’t resist once it was served.

Cute little restaurant tucked away but a true hidden gem. The porchetta sandwich did not disappoint and the people working were so friendly and welcoming.

We thoroughly enjoyed our first sandwich here last week! Ernie was a great host and guided us to their most delectable sandwiches – the porchetta and the steak frites. The flavor of the meat on both sandwiches was unbelievably good! If we lived in Austin, we would eat here regularly! Eat here- it will be worth your time!
