A Sandwich Lover’s Mecca – Sam LaGrassa’s 44 Province Street, Boston

Sam LaGrassa’s Deli, situated just off the Freedom Trail, is an excellent spot to refuel during your walking tour of Boston. Since 1968, this family-operated sandwich mecca has been piling the meats high. Hats off to the Rumanian pastrami & Swiss on light rye. Honorable mention to the pickles. Sure, LaGrassa’s swarms with locals at lunchtime so you know it’s good, but don’t be put off – the line moves quickly.

Each sandwich can easily feed to adult appetites. Leave room for the 7-layer bar for dessert. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are available. It’s pricey but worth it! Open Monday through Friday, 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Closed on weekends. Parking: Forget about it.
