Roma’s Bakery & Deli
$ | (781) 932-6496 | WEBSITE
This family-owned Italian bakery in Woburn is tucked away in a neighborhood spot that feels like a secret find. Once you step inside, you’ll discover a warm, bustling space ideal for grabbing a quick lunch, picking up dessert for a dinner party, or sitting at one of the small tables and pretending you’re in your nonna’s kitchen.
The display cases cover a lot of ground, but whether you’re in the mood for a classic Italian sub on their famous bread, a sprinkle-topped cannoli, or a lemon square that tastes like sunshine, everything is fresh and will make you at least temporarily forget about the spreadsheet waiting for you back at the office.
Polcari’s Restaurant
$$ | (781) 938-1900 | WEBSITE
If you aren’t quite ready for a fancy Italian dinner just yet, head over to Polcari’s Restaurant. The casual Woburn spot is the antithesis to its perpetually crowded neighbors – there’s a calm atmosphere, amazing food, and a crowd that isn’t completely made up of people on their phones. We head to Polcari’s when we have 30 minutes to spare and want a simple house salad or arancini that’ll keep us full until dinnertime.
Pizza Market
$ | (781) 935-9955 | WEBSITE
If you’re looking to break out of your usual pizza chain + daily daydream about finding something better in the suburbs routine, may we suggest Pizza Market? The Woburn restaurant makes family dining feel easy – just place your order at the counter, then make your way to their clean, welcoming dining area up front.
There’s hardly a bad option on the menu here, but our favorites include the fresh, hot, and crispy pizza with a great range of toppings, tender steak and cheese sub on great bread, and simple chicken wings that are outstanding and come in large portions that we crave on a near-weekly basis.
Andrea’s Pizza
$ | (781) 935-2222 | WEBSITE
Tucked away in Woburn, this quick-service spot does both Greek pizza and delicious grinders (the Chicken Kabob salad with Feta is a standout), but the reason you’re here is for some of the best pizza in town. The Athenian Pizza with eggplant is a standout, which is made with delicious dough and the house dressing, as well as the amazing service. Please don’t ask us which one is our favorite, because it’s not possible.
They’re both excellent, so just order one of each, and make the most of your lunch.
Mike’s Place Pizzeria & Roast
$ | (781) 281-0038 | WEBSITE
This pizza and roast joint in Woburn feels like it was transported from a classic neighborhood spot, with a straightforward setup and a menu posted behind the counter. The food is exactly what you’d hope for from a place like this, and despite the generous portions and hearty options like the roast beef sandwiches and bacon burgers, they never forget the main requirement for good comfort food – it tastes satisfying.
Grab a few friends or family members, order a bunch of items to share (including the flavorful chicken kabob with rice and salad, the homemade-style macaroni salad, and the generous Linguini and meatballs), and leave much fuller than you planned.
Woburn Pete’s Roast Beef and Pizza
$ | (781) 935-8879 | WEBSITE
Lunchtime has been really strange lately. Besides the fact that every day feels like a blur, your midday meals have probably involved some combination of leftovers from last night’s dinner, your kitchen counter, and whatever’s streaming on your tablet. Which is all to say, you also might be having trouble remembering how a proper sit-down lunch works. If that’s the case, head to Woburn Pete’s Roast Beef and Pizza.
The top-rated spot in Woburn has a welcoming dining room that’s removed from the noise and bustle of Main Street, and serves everything from exceptional roast beef sandwiches to high-praise pizzas, as well as grilled chicken souvlaki and fresh salads that come with delicious dressings and bread squares.
Brother’s Pizza
$ | (781) 933-8585 | WEBSITE
There’s a full menu at Brother’s Pizza, but when you’re ordering, your focus should be on the calzone – a stuffed pizza pocket that arrives at your door still piping hot from the oven. Eating it does require a bit of patience because you’ll want to let the cheese settle and the crust get just right before taking that first bite.
Luckily, they’re generous with their service (you’ll probably get a friendly greeting on the phone, maybe a quick chat about your day, plus they never forget the drinks or get orders wrong) so you can relax while you wait. For $14, you’ll have enough food to feed a hungry family, though we like to use this place for a solo dinner (and save the leftovers for tomorrow). They’re always busy with take-out and delivery, which tells you they’re doing something right.
Louie’s Pizza Restaurant
$ | (781) 933-2696 | WEBSITE
This tremendous pizza spot in Woburn has a classic takeout setup ideal for those quick solo pickups when you just want to enjoy your food at home. Our order usually involves their well-done cheese pizza, a pie with flavorful sauce, and a crust that you’ll be texting your friends about before you even finish the first slice.
Krave Kitchen & Bar
$$ | (781) 932-5910 | WEBSITE
We don’t need to remind anyone about Krave Kitchen & Bar, but it’s worth pointing out that this upscale family-owned spot in the Burlington plaza now has a comfortable dining room temperature that’s made lingering over a long lunch a bit more pleasant than it was in The Before Times. There truly isn’t a bad order here, but the braised beef, on-site meatballs with spaghetti, and fresh ingredient-packed tacos are standouts during lunch.
Lisa’s Pizzeria
$ | (781) 938-0123 | WEBSITE
Lisa’s Pizzeria is a fantastic local takeout spot with a cozy dining area and a menu filled with everything from thin crust pepperoni pizzas to buffalo chicken calzones to our favorite chicken broccoli ziti in town. Their version comes with tender chicken and broccoli tossed in a creamy sauce, all over perfectly cooked pasta. Wash it down with a soda from their drink deal, and top the meal off with a slice of their fresh cheese pizza.
Many items on their menu are also vegetarian-friendly, including the cheese slices.
Nick’s Pizza, Roast Beef & Subs
$ | (781) 281-0748 | WEBSITE
Nick’s could’ve easily just been another run-of-the-mill pizza joint people grab from while they run errands. Instead, it’s become our absolute go-to spot for pizza in Woburn. The crust is crispy and chewy, and if you go with the chicken buffalo calzone, the generous portions provide a satisfying meal that also doesn’t overwhelm with spice. Be sure to add the fresh salad on the side. Their friendly staff and consistently fresh food make this place a great addition to the neighborhood.
