Cutty's · Brookline
One of the first to elevate the Boston sandwich with top-quality ingredients and house-roasted meats. See the broccoli rabe with tomato jam and mozzarella on a seeded roll.
Chacarero · Downtown Boston
The Globe's Chilean counter pick. BBQ beef on house-made round bread with cheese, tomatoes, green beans, avocado, and tangy hot sauce.
Bánh Mì Ba Lẹ & Bakery · Fields Corner
The Globe credits Ba Lẹ with stellar bánh mì for decades. The key is the crusty, baguette-like rolls baked daily.
Sam LaGrassa's · Downtown Crossing
A family-run downtown institution for weekday-lunch specialty sandwiches.
Ethel & Andy's Sandwich Shop · South Boston
A Southie favorite for quality, flavor-packed sandwiches.
