Weirs The Beef!

Joe Kerr · 09-22-2010, 09:55 PM

I tried Weirs the Beef a few times this summer. I found it to be okay but not up in the top 5 of the best roast beef sandwiches I've ever had.

There is no comparison to Kelley's of Revere Beach fame in my opinion.

I went back for more so I liked it but I wish it was better.

Kelley's has a nice toasted bun for it's RB with no added sauce, it is moist without oozing juices down my hand or getting the bun all soggy like the Weirs the Beef RB. I couldn't tell if WTB bun was even toasted it was so soggy.

The steak and cheese subs were also just OK. Mine included onions but some of the fried onion pieces were onion peel and not edible. I tried some of their horseradish sauce on one of my sandwiches and it was not very good IMO.

I also noted in August that they sometimes closed earlier than their posted hours. Not just a few minutes early but a few hours early and not just one time.

I'm being critical as this is a review. I will go back again but not as often as I would if it were Kelley's.

If you Mass people think the food there is so great well just stay there. There is no comparison. Weirs Beach is absolutly beautiful, clean and safe and there is no place where you can get better service or RB

than with Tommy. We love him here and are so very happy Weirs The Beef is back.
