    Big beef
    Peter C.

    It's a hole in the wall spot in Woburn and it's awesome for so many reasons. It's small inside and hasn't been touched by an interior designer. It's exactly the kind of place you know could end up being a gem. Save the pretentious dishes for some high end place and give me this rare roast beef piled high on an onion roll. Wow. The beef is oh so rare! That's my favorite kind. It's a rich pink color and so tender. It comes with bbq sauce, cheese and mayo but you can customize it. Onion rings are done in house. None of that frozen crap. If you like onion rings you need to get these. So good. Light and flavorful. The guy behind the counter was so nice. He explained the roast beef options to me and other menu items to other patrons. There were some other first timers in there and the long time customers were giving advice on what to eat. It was magical. 5 star for the Roast beef and onion rings. Can't speak to the other items. They were sending out alot pizza for take out orders but I can't imagine not getting the Beef when I'm here

    A legend. Is it better than Bill's beef at C&S? By 5 votes in 2026 Battle of the Beef. Yes, it's good. Wicked good. This is a neck and neck beef when it compared to C&S, my personal favorite. Beef was super red, no gray. Bun was perfectly toasted. Service was excellent and I was able to talk with the owner, who takes great pride in his beef. This was awesome. No question. Small, tight seating area. Classic Massachusetts. Eat here and GFY.

    HUGE calzone for a small! And the roast beef sandwich with fresh hot fries.

    My husband likes to try different roast beef places on occasion, and asked if I'd join him in his trip to Pete's. I'm not a roast beef fan, but they have a lot of other choices on the menu, so of course I was in. I ordered a meatball calzone - I got the SMALL. Let me tell you, this thing was gargantuan. I only ate half of it! And it was so delicious... they added cheese on the top that added a nice crisp. The crust was perfect, too. My husband said the roast beef was excellent. Service and prices were reasonable too.

    Wow Pete's is out of this world good. Great roast beef, super rare, awesome tangy bbq sauce, perfect crispy bun. Reason why it's the 2024 beef champion. Onion rings sliced thin so super crunchy and a perfect amount of batter to onion ring. I'm impressed! Great service. Food came out quickly. Only knock on the place is lack of seating, there is 4 or 5 tables. Place is tiny, so I'm sure takeout is how they do business. Loved it! I will be back!!!

    So far this is my favorite place to get New England style beef's. The bun is made really well & holds up to all the moisture, it didn't fall apart. The meat is super thin sliced, juicy, served rare as it should be. The cheese & sauce worked perfectly together and it was delicious. Small clean place with great service with a smile. Can't wait to go back.

    i only get so many minutes, don't wanna spend 'em all on the clock  Big Beef Five Way from #PetesRoastBeef

    I've had roast beef sandwiches before. I've had it from delis, sub shops, and even the hard to find beef on wecks. However, I have to say this was one of my favorites as far as delivering on the meat. Not only was it thick stack of it on the sandwich, but it was perfectly cooked to a medium rare that most places can't match. I had the five way, which has the onion rings and horseradish sauce. I think next time I'll try the four way with the raw onions. I would eat this sandwich daily if it was nearby me. I would recommend it to everyone who like roast beef, sandwiches, and just good fast casual food in general.

    Had my first 4way. Bbq sauce, mayo, cheese and onion rings. Service was straightforward, walk up to the counter and order. Seating is limited here. The sandwich was really good. Piled high rare roast beef that was tender. Good amount of sauce to flavor the beef. It's a messy goodness.

    In Woburn for the night and wanted Roast Beef. Pete's had the best Yelp reviews so that was my choice. Small mostly takeout place with about 4 tables inside and a few more outside. Steady stream of takeout customers at 8pm on a Monday. Walked right up to the counter and with a little help from the gentleman behind it I ordered the Big Beef Dinner Plate (Three-Way) that comes with a very large sandwich, onion rings, and fries. I also ordered a 20 oz soda. The food came out fairly quickly and the onion rings and fries were piping hot and straight from the fryer. Upon opening the box the smell made me start salivating and after taking my couple obligatory photos I attacked the Big Beef sandwich. 8-10oz of perfectly cooked roast beef on an onion roll with (Three-Way) cheese, mayo & bbq sauce. I destroyed that sandwich in the blink of an eye. By then the onion rings and fries had cooled. I polished off the onion rings and about 3/4 the fries before I realized what a glutton I was and finally ceased the carnage. A pack of rabid wolves probably couldn't have eaten that as quickly as I did. Great service, large portions, and super flavorful. With tax total was $23.94 I'd eat here again!

    3 Way Wrap
    David R.

    It's been almost 2 weeks since I stopped at Pete's and I cannot get the 3 way wrap out of my mind. The super 3 way Sammy on an onion roll was excellent but that wrap stole my heart.

    Super Beef - add $2.00 for the 5 way ( American cheese, mayo horseradish onion rings and James  River BBQ sauce)

    Good spot went for lunch a few times this week and enjoyed it every time…read more The line was quick not bad

    If you've ever been to a Pressed Cafe (yes, just one), you may be forgiven to assume they're all…read moremostly alike. This review is to tell you otherwise. Some are much larger (like this one). Some are drive-thru only (like the one near my house). I'm gonna talk about the former real quick. Naturally, the menu is basically the same. On this day, I was having lunch. Ergo, I opted to try the Chipotle Short Rib & Egg burrito (as a bowl because I'm a man of culture) accompanied with a cup of chowdah. I must say...I expected there to be a bit more flavor, what - with the Chipotle sauce n' all. Alas, I had to add my own salt. This is mostly a nitpick, but really...can we please season our beef? Just a lil bit even? So, the biggest difference you'll notice at this location is the parking situation. It's....annoying. Because on the one hand, you technically have ample amounts of spaces to park in. Or...you WOULD, if not for the signs en masse that read "[insert corporate company name here] parking only - all violators will be towed at owner's expense." I find this hilarious because I feel like that would be impossible to enforce for folks parking less than 10 minutes to pick up an order like I did. So, I guess my pro tip of the day would be: feel free to park wherever at your own risk if and ONLY if you're getting take-away. If you're actually dining in, I suppose you'll have to wait painstakingly for one of the few parking spots actually designated for Pressed specifically to open. By the way, if you're picking up a take-away order, the take-out shelf is smack dab next to their side entrance opposite the side where you would normally order your food. It's one of those "blink once and you'll miss it" type things the first time visiting. From my vantage point, this place stays quite busy. Not surprising, considering the Burlington area in general. Clearly, a lot of folks come here mid-work day which is also the only reason I came here to begin with. Overall, not a bad lunch stop, though the parking can be slightly obnoxious. I'm giving Pressed Cafe in Burlington 4 Chipotle Short Rib bowls dubiously seasoned out of 5.
