Jon's Roast Beef has officially become part of our annual Laconia tradition. Every year when we come up to the area, we make sure to stop in for lunch, and it never disappoints. The food is always great, but what I really love about this place is the people. Everyone is genuinely friendly and always seems so appreciative of your business. There's just an old-school New England/New Hampshire wholesomeness to the place that you don't find everywhere anymore. This trip we had the Turkey Thanksgiving sandwich with gravy on the side and the pastrami on a sub roll with Swiss and deli mustard. Both were absolutely fantastic. Washed it all down with an RC Cola, which was a fun surprise because you almost never see RC anymore! Great food, great people, and the kind of local place you actually look forward to coming back to. It's an annual tradition for us now, and I have a feeling it will continue to be one for many years to come. read more

I asked the gentleman at the counter if they make a North Shore three-way. He confidently replied, "Sure do!" What arrived was an absolute abomination. The roast beef was salted like deli cold cuts and wasn't rare at all, the barbecue sauce wasn't James River--it was some house-made substitute--and it wasn't even served on a buttered grilled onion roll. Somehow they still called it a North Shore three-way. I'm sorry, but if it doesn't have James River sauce and isn't on a buttered grilled onion roll, it's not a North Shore three-way. That's just a roast beef sandwich having an identity crisis. And for reasons known only to the gods, it cost $19.74. Needless to say, I won't be going back. If you're going to charge twenty bucks for a North Shore three-way, at least make an actual North Shore three-way. read more

Amazing sandwiches! Meat to bread ratio was exactly as I love a sandwich to be with lots and lots of meat to bread. Bread was fresh and delicious and the sandwiches were mind blowing tasty. Service is friendly and definitely a place I will be returning to. read more

We called ahead and had our sandwiches and salad ordered while we went grocery shopping. Everything was bagged and ready by the time we got to Jon's Roast Beef & Deli. And it was all delicious when we got home and ate it. Bravo! We'll do this again! read more

I asked for what they recommend and so I ordered the House Special. Best sandwich I've ever had. Roast Beef, bbq and horseradish sauce with cheese on an onion roll. Softest roll ever. It is a must try. Service was great, food was made quick. This is a must visit for anyone in the area. read more

Love the small Big Bear sandwich that is rich and creamy and filled with lots of roast beef! Staff is friendly and food is ready on time

This place has great roast beef. Loved the bread it was served on and the beef was super tender and flavorful. The guy taking orders (maybe the owner, seemed like a family business) was super friendly. He was fist bumping people telling them how awesome their sandwich choice was going to be. He told my wife she almost got here order right when she didn't get the Reuben on rye Great place for a good meal with friendly people. read more

I cannot say enough great things about this place! From the moment we walked in we felt welcomed. The staff was the nicest people we have ever come across in any place we have ever eaten in. And if that wasn't enough to bring us back the sandwiches were delicious! The roast beef sandwich was hands down the best I've ever had. The roast beef was so tender and the bread was so soft it was like it just came out of the oven. The BBQ and horseradish were the perfect flavor combo to top it off. If I could give 10 stars I would. Look no further, this is the spot! read more

Jon's roast beef has become a required stop for us anytime we are in the area. We live in Wolfeboro, so it is a bit of a hike. However the sandwiches are so good. My go to us the pastrami sandwich. I'm a bit of a purist, so I just get the meat with some mustard. However, you can get add swiss cheese. The owner Bill is wicked friendly. Definitely give it a try. read more

I called ahead and the staff member that answered was the sweetest! Really enjoyed the Boardwalk sandwich too!!

Another delicious sandwich at Jon's! Feels like we're part of the family when we're eating here! Don't miss the Reuben!

Food isn't that good, basic sandwich that can be purchased from a gas station. Not sure why everyone thinks it is so good.

Nicest staff and amazing food These guys are the definition of small business owners who take pride in their work 100% will re-visit read more

WOW. We were in the area for a concert and wanted to grab a sandwich beforehand. We searched local places and saw the great reviews and decided to give Jon's a shot. AND ARE WE GLAD WE DID! First, the staff couldn't have been friendlier. Bill helped us and was patient when we asked for recommendations -- he was super helpful and made us feel very welcomed. Based off of his recommendations, we both went with the house special roast beef and deviled eggs. We found a nice spot on the pretty patio that was adorned with lots of beautiful flowers (it was late May when we visited). They brought our food to the table when it was ready, so we didn't have to go in and out as we waited for our made to order sandwiches. This trip was May of 2023 and I have been thinking about those roast beef sandwiches ever since. The best deli roast beef I have ever had. The deviled eggs were just as yummy and the portions were generous and filling! I can't recommend a stop here enough. We are so glad we just happened to find it and can't wait to go back! read more

Been dreaming about these roast beef sandwiches since 2019 and I must say, they're even better than I remembered! The prices increased a bit but what else is new. Make sure you order the House Special which is their most popular sandwich on an onion roll. We ended up ordered the "large" which is 8oz of meat and piled high!! It was absolutely incredible except we were stuffed. Definitely would stick with the regular size and save some money and stomach space! PS: The deviled eggs with bacon were a surprise star. read more

We were stopped at a red light next to Jon's and decided to pull in to grab some sandwiches. We picked up 4 sandwiches and all were great. The roast beef on an onion roll was excellent! It was a little expensive for sandwiches but I would definitely go again. read more

I've gotten takeout sandwiches from Jon's many times since that first visit 6 years ago, and am happy to say that the food and service are consistently very good. Get that roast beef special! read more

Service is friendly and atmosphere is great. You will always be surrounded by friendly regulars. But it's the food that keeps me coming back. It is always terrific. Big portions, always fresh, highest quality and very tasty too ! read more

Thank you sooo much for helping to save the day today!! My daughter's weekend wedding caterer had an emergency, and Jons Roast Beef pulled out for the WIN!!! What could have been a disaster ended up perfect because of you! The platters were beautiful, the staff was wonderful, and the pickles were divine!! And all with only about 1 hour notice... read more

Top notch service and sandwiches. These guys are doing exactly what they set out to do. We had a House Special and a Bypass on a wheat wrap. Both were fantastic. Split a large and a small between two people and it was the right amount of food. If you need a fast, friendly, delicious lunch get your booty in here! read more

Another successful Yelp find! Jon's Roast Beef and Deli is a gem in Laconia. I had the traditional roast beef with Swiss, horseradish and banana peppers. I got a large and had to have 1/2 of it to go. Great portions, you can get it hot or cold. I went cold this trip. They have deviled eggs, Buckeyes and other baked goods. They are open for lunch mostly Monday through Thursday, Friday and Saturday they are open until 7. For you gluten free peeps, they have that too, they define GF as great food read more

We stopped in today on our drive around the lake. So thrilled we decided to stop to try their food. Not only was the food excellent...very fresh but the owner, Bill, was so friendly. Made you feel like you were stopping into a friends house for a good meal. Icing on the cake was that they offered gluten free options. Roast beef sandwiches were very tasty. We definitely will be back. If you are in the area, stop in and try for yourself...you won't be disappointed. read more

Ate there several years ago and wasn't impressed by what we got. Haven't gone back. Better sandwiches at a shop just past it. I expected my roast beef sandwich to be fresh sliced and warm. Small and cold is what they served. read more

Great Food, friendly staff. Been going here for over 10 years, and have never been disappointed in either the food or service

Walking into John's you immediately get the feeling you're entering an old fashioned sandwich shop, not a fast food joint I got two roast beef sandwiches and they were both delicious Great service and food. I'll definitely be a repeat customer Highly recommended! read more

Jon's place is amazing! You can't get better hospitality anywhere else. My wife and I visited for the first time ever today. She got the pulled pork and I got the Turkey club. we also got a side of potato salad. we completely devoured our food it was so delicious!!!! but honestly the best part is the staff. sweetest people ever. definitely stop here if you are traveling to laconia!! read more

This was the best roast beef sandwich I've had in decades. Highly recommend. The owner himself was working the register, very nice man. I'll definitely be back!!!! read more

I want it to be better. I need a place like this in my life, but better. Customer of 10 years. sandwiches get smaller, price goes up, that sort of thing. read more

Amazing customer service and delicious sandwiches! Definitely stop in. I will again next time I'm in the area. ( They also make gluten free sandwiches for celiacs like me it was soo good, and I didn't get sick:) read more

This is the place to get a sandwich! I had been hankering for a nice, thin sliced, piled high rare roast beef sandwich with horseradish all weekend. We passed by this place in our travels and promptly changed course. So glad we did. There are may sandwich choices but roast beef is a star--you can order on different rolls, different sizes, a variety of cheeses and toppings. (It's like they read my mind!) They have coleslaw and potato and macaroni salad, deviled eggs. We ordered two roast beef sandwiches, warmed, with Swiss cheese and creamy horseradish, coleslaw as a side (sandwiches come with a pickle and small bag chips). Hit all the spots! The roll was a tad crunchy on outside, the roast beef rare and thinly sliced, cheese melted perfectly. We ate outside under the umbrella on a wonderfully sunny day. They also have some homemade goodies. We had the shortbread cookies with raspberry filling and these were absolutely fantastic. Staff was friendly and upbeat and welcoming! read more

Jon's is the Best roast beef sandwich around... everything else is fantastic as well. The owners and team that work there are friendly and provides great service. We vacation in the Laconia area often and we always make a point to eat at Jon's... read more

Been coming here for years. Best sandwiches around. Not super cheap for a large sandwich but the amount of meat they give you and the quality of the ingredients makes it worth the price. Will keep coming back here. Favorite is the big bear because I love mushrooms though their corned beef also slaps. People are also super friendly, one time they forgot to give us our bags of chips and one of the guys ran out from behind the counter to our car to give them to us unprompted. read more

The place was packed and ordering and picking up my sandwich was painless. This time instead of the pilgrim I always go for, I went with (for $12 including fees) a small Sasquatch sandwich in a spinach wrap. Yes, small. Since the large is aparently the second largest sandwich in the establishment and I wanted to try it first before ever getting the larger size. It was really good and worth the price. All the meats were fresh and the extras included (chips and pickle) were also great additions. Sandwiches like this really make this place worth the trip up to New Hampshire in a heartbeat. read more

Spent a couple of days in Laconia, so Jon's Roast Beef & Deli was a must. Discovered it last year and made it a point to return. Not only are the made to order sandwiches fabulous, but the staff is awesome! If you are in the area and you don't stop in, you are missing out. read more

Great sandwiches made to order. Say hi to Bill at the cash register, he is a great guy! Friendly staff and tables to dine inside or outside. We always go to Jon's Roast Beef and Deli when we visit the Lake! read more

Great food and sandwiches served at this family owned and operated eatery. They offer tasty roast beef (rare) sandwiches (choice of first 3 items included such as creamy horseradish, lettuce, BBQ sauce, cheese, etc.) and 15 other signature sandwiches including the Pilgrim (roasted turkey &trimmings), Regetta (pulled pork), Mt. Washington (baked ham & roasted turkey, American cheese, bacon, & Russian dressing), Fishing Derby (tuna salad, lettuce, tomato, Swiss cheese, & bacon), Laker (bbq chicken, bacon, & cheese), and several others. The sandwiches come in two sizes: small (bulkie roll)-$4.95 and large (9" sub roll)-$7.25, whole wheat wrap-add $0.25, served with a small bag of plain Wise chips and pickle spear. The sandwiches are sooo good, that I must get the large. My favorites are the Cruiser (thinly sliced corn beef with melted swiss cheese, cole slaw, & honey mustard) and the7th Avenue (red pastrami, melted swiss cheese, & deli mustard). They also offer deli salads, green salads, soups, Ronda's Wieners (steamed & Michigan style), chips, bakery items (in the display case), coffee, and cold drinks. There's ample seating for eat-in. The staff is friendly and they know their regular customers by name and what they usually order. I live out of the area, so when do stop in here in the winter or summer, I'm just a "phantom critic" hehe. NOTE: CASH & CHECKS only. read more

We passed Jon's late getting to the Lake on a Friday night. Mental note!!! Concert on Saturday and we decided to get something to tailgate with. I got the Boardwalk and hubby got the House. In 49 years I've never eaten tomatoes on a sandwich. I've just never been able to...until now. Not that the tomatoes are that good, they may be, I can't really compare. But this sandwich was so good I even ate the 'maters!!! Ate half in the restaurant and took the rest to the concert. Hands DOWN the best subs we've ever had. We got menus for us and the for house we were staying at. We WILL be back to this FREEDOM loving place as long as we have the free maskless breaths to breathe! No Q-uestion about it! wwg1wga read more

I have been going here on and off for the last twelve years. This was going to be my first stop this year. My wife and I checked out the menu on our way there and were looking forward to having lunch. The first thing I saw before I even opened the door was a " Let's go Brandon" sticker. If you support trump, you don't get my business! Never going there again and certainly not recommending this place. read more
