The Panini Press Opens in Berkley July 6th, 2009!

After 20 years of working in foodservice, the owner’s dream of starting a grass-roots local franchise has finally been realized. “My hope is to provide Metro Detroit with a reasonably-priced, uniquely-local specialty sandwich alternative to the national chains.” Two things are true about Metro Detroit: we are loyal to our communities, and we love great food.

The Panini Press Goes "Locovore"!

What is a Locovore? It’s not a carnivore, it’s not a vegetarian, it’s a person who eats fresh, local ingredients. The Panini Press uses locally grown produce and locally made ingredients whenever possible. “It’s all part of my passion for food and love of Michigan.” Local products are better for everyone; they are healthier, taste better and support local farmers and businesses.

We are in the News!
