Nick's Famous Roast Beef

I was expecting a bigger sandwhich for the money. It was more bun than meat. The pizza roll could have been cooked a little longer. Dont sleep on the onion rings, cooked perfectly and taste was exceptional.

Have been coming here for years. I love their food. Wish they had my locations closer to my home In Gloucester, It’s always worth the drive

Local spot for beef sandwiches. I bought a Super Beef on an onion roll. Its was good made to order. It reminded me on an Arbys roast beef but the quality of the meat doesn't compare to Nick’s. Just the make up of Onion Roll, cheese & BBQ sauce. I'd go back for sure. Restaurant is located in a corner location which can be difficult to navigate parking.

Local eatery. Fantastic! Been going for 40 years and will keep going till I die. Wanna know how good the food is? My ex flew into Boston so I could deliver him a large with sauce. That's how good the beef is.

Had not been in a many years, but definitely hit it out of the park. Been a long time since I’ve had a decent beef since moving to the Wolfeboro area. Definitely need a good beef place up here. But when in the area definitely need to return.

Smallest super beef I’ve ever had. It’s a jr. on an onion roll. Do better, Nicks!

I walked in and was greeted by the friendly staff, I already knew by my instincts that this was gonna be good….. I was right! the roast-beef was so nice, the cheese was so creamy and melted and was absolutely divine…. The sub roll was so soft and fresh, I couldn't wrap my head around how fresh it was…I loved it. fries were so good….. I would absolutely highly recommend Nick's to anyone that wants one of the best subs in the north sore. great food, great staff. I will go back again when I can.

Wicked good beef. Junior is perfect size. Would like to see sauce for moz sticks warmed. Fires need work which makes them easy to pass on. This place is gold.

We drove 250 miles especially to Nick's roast Beef to try their roast beef sandwich. And yes, it's the best roast beef sandwich I've ever had. We had the "Super Beef" on onion roll which was loaded with warm roast beef with 3 different types of sauces. BBQ, cheese sauce,...and I forgot the other. And somehow they just worked. The cashier lady was extremely nice and informative, she can tell we're not locals. I thought only wagyu can melt in your mouth but Nick's roast beef can also do it. Leave your dentures at home because chewing isn't required. The restaurant has limited seating which is really the only down side. It's dining area seems to have this 80s diner feel with a lot of yellow colors but doesn't feel dirty at all. The seats, tables, counters are all very clean which is always a plus. As good as Nick's roast beef is...I wouldn't drive 250 miles again just for the sandwich but if I'm in the area within 50 miles, I'll be sure to stop by.

Super Beef Onion Roll Three Way for breakfast at the opening. A good morning for sure.

A piece of plastic in the roast beef sub. Very disappointing and disgusting. Upon informing them, the reaction was like nothing happened.

I am NOT a fan of roast beef. That said, when in Rome, I had to try the north shore beef; and if you're going to try something, why not get the best. For me the 3-way is a tad much. Google it. After spying a couple of locals...the JR. is the way to go. I surmise that this is so the sandwich does not get soggy and is manageable. 1 is enough (with onion rings) but uh...(I ate 2). Horseradish sauce and onions were my add-ons. *The sauce is light IMO. **May want to ask for a side of horseradish sauce should you have an option to add more. BBQ sauce may also be a legit choice but I witnessed all sorts of combinations. There is a sign above the counter that lists the options- many combinations of add-ons available. Onion rings- as a connoisseur, A+...light batter, fresh and perfect. Great food, great service. Definitely will be back.

Everything! What can I say about Nick's? If you are ever in or near Beverly, Massachusetts, this MUST be on your list of places to visit for lunch (or dinner). I guarantee you will not be disappointed. The service is fast and always accurate. However, be prepared to wait in line to order, as Nick's is small, very popular, and is usually quite busy, no matter the time of day or night. I now live in Florida, but whenever I return to Massachusetts I make it a point to visit Nick's. I only wish they had a location (or 5 locations) in Florida.

Awful. I ordered a Super Roast Beef. Nothing super about this. It was a Big flat empty bun with a small size portion of "meh" roast beef. This cost me $11??? Not sure what the hype is about this place.

The only place I must return to in memory of living here. Still the best roastbeef sandwich!

Can't say enough good things about Nick's. Learned about Nick's back around 2007 when my brother who attended college in the area brought us here. Fast forward almost 10 years later and, when vacationing in the area, I knew I had to go back. I remembered it being small, but it was even smaller than I remembered (or maybe I'm just bigger), but just as good -- and maybe even better. Not being from New England or growing up eating roast beef like this, I wasn't sure how to order. The staff was so kind and patient and gave their recommended order which I went with and it did not disappoint! A roast beef with mayo, bbq sauce and cheese is now my go-to for my next visit. Everything is cooked perfectly and tastes AMAZING. We also tried their zucchini sticks, which were delicious. To put it simply, you have to come here and try it out, even if you're an outsider and don't understand what all the fuss is about hot roast beef sandwiches. It will show you the light and you'll never regret it.

Food is usually a hit or miss behind whoever is cooking. Service is superb and quick but I can't express enough how hit or miss the register people attitudes can be. Some are extremely rude and some are super nice. I was in the other night and it was extremely unprofessional for the girl at the register to bring up a break issue and start an argument with the fry guy because she "doesn't take breaks at 830", I may have completely misunderstood it and it wasn't my business really anyway but in my opinion it really shouldn't matter when you get a break as long as you get one. And all coworkers should be getting treated fairly but if there's an issue between people, bring it out back instead of doing it in front of customers, it's just unprofessional.

The food was unbelievable I got a 3 way roast beef and I can honestly say it was one of the best roast beef's in the Northshore. Service was good it was quick and the workers were nice. The only thing was it was expensive and they didn't give me as much beef as I would of liked.

I'm not usually a Roast Beef fan, but Nick's has converted me. This has a very "family ran" business feel and it shows in the delicious recipes they use. We got the original roast beef sandwich with everything on it. I highly recommend getting it how they wanna make it. So good! Getting into the parking lot was a little tricky since we had to cut across traffic to make the left turn, so be prepared. It was worth risking our lives for :)

Was my go to place. Unfortunately no longer. What was once a fantastic roast beef sub 3 way, is no more. The amount of beef they give you now is skimpy, the price hike and the quality of the roast beef has taken a turn for the worst. To be clear. These comments are from my multiple experiences I had there recently and I am commenting only about their roast beef. Staff is friendly and efficient.

Never disappoints. Beef is always cooked perfectly. Chefs kiss every time. Staff is always pleasant.

I walked in and was greeted by the friendly staff, I already knew by my instincts that this was gonna be good..... I was right! the roast-beef was so nice, the cheese was so creamy and melted and was absolutely divine.... The sub roll was so soft and fresh, I couldn't wrap my head around how fresh it was...I loved it. fries were so good..... I would absolutely highly recommend Nick's to anyone that wants one of the best subs in the north sore. great food, great staff. I will go back again when I can.

Great sandwich shop esp roast beef must return soon great service tasty onion rings

Nick's roast beef is the best. Regardless of your hunger level, there's a sandwich for you. The horseradish sauce gives it a little zip too. The fries are simple, but hot and perfectly cooked. No bits and pieces either. We'll worth a try.

Hate to say it, but Nick's has gone downhill since pandemic. Funny but my friends don't go there either. Could be everyone having less meat, not sure. We don't crave their Sammies after our last couple of trips. The folks inside are still wonderful, welcoming. This is the local divey place that is affordable and gives a good value. BUT now it's not quite got that edge of draw that it used to have. Sorry guys.

Nick's is a legendary north shore fast food joint and rightly so. Great quality, great slection and great service. A fifth star would certainly be earned if they cooked their french fries to completion every time. Fix that!

This is the best roast beef I've ever. I cannot stress this enough - if you come to Beverly and don't get this, you effed up! Good service with a fun vibe. I'll definitely be back!

So good! Girlfriend brought me here. I'm a California guy and she's from Beverly, so simple but so perfect!!!

I'm not a local but this seems like an old school roast beef place which they did well. I got one of their roast been sandwiches with horseradish sauce and they asked me how I wanted it (medium ease) and it was great. Older place and staff and you can tell they care.

Nicks roast beef is awesome. Giving north shore core! Yummy stuff nice staff and great milkshakes!

My hubby used to live in Wenham and he insists that a visit to Nick's is a "must do" when he returns home to visit. Nick's is located in a strip mall with a challenging parking lot situation. Don't be intimidated. The food is worth it. When you walk in, it's set up like an old school diner. You order at the counter, and are assigned a number. When your number is called, you head back to the counter to pick up your food. I ordered a roast beef plate -- which is still a sandwich but with sides. The sides offered with the plate are French fries, onion rings, and a salad. I asked them to hold the onion rings and got a mountain of French fries that our party of 4 shared. The food was delicious!!! While it's not on the menu anywhere (but should be!)-- they do offer gluten-free buns.

First time visiting this north shore establishment & will certainly be back! Perfectly crafted Jr. Roast beef w more than enough meat, horseradish, onions, lettuce & tomato & crispiest onion rings! Very attentive staff, quick service & welcoming atmosphere. Stop in for a filling sandwich at a reasonable price (considering todays economic headwinds).

Love this place!! The best roast beef and real French fries. I want to get the Onion rings next. Very nice people behind the counter. Always am greeted not just how can I help you.

Nick's Famous Roast Beef in Beverly, MA has quite honestly the perfect sandwich - their super beef three way. While New England has amazing Italian and seafood - when I return here, a beef from Nick's is always my first stop. It should be yours too.

Best roast beef 3 way ANYWHERE. THE BEST chicken fingers and chicken finger sub w feta. Great owners, so hard working and kind.

They got my order wrong not once but four times. I ordered a roast beef with just mayo- they gave me one with cheese. The girl suggested I eat it that way because "if you take the cheese off now it will be all gooey!" I looked at her like she was crazy and asked for a fresh one. I ordered a bottle of water, but she gave me a small chocolate shake, then a small cup of water, then cutting my losses I gave up when she gave me a small bottle when I had paid for a large one. I spoke with the guy standing next to me who had returned from his car because almost everything in his bag was wrong. ????? Too much competition to deal with this level of incompetence.

My last couple of takeout have not been as great as I am used to from Nick's Roast Beef. Not sure what is going on, but the roast beef sandwich does not have the same great taste I expect. Also, the French fries are terrible. I am so disappointed. The fries taste "blah". Seems maybe the oil they use is different. I detect a fishy oil taste and the fries have no taste. Please. Please. Please go back to producing the product you used to.

When my father was a kid, he and his brothers always ate at Nick's. It's become our family spot. Even though my dad isn't here anymore, it still feels like he's waiting in line behind me to get his two roast beef sandwiches with mayo. The beef here is exquisite. Juicy, fresh, and tender it literally melts in your mouth. The best accompaniment is mayonnaise but I've heard the barbecue sauce here is pretty excellent. I've never had it. Just mayo on a toasted bun. Their onion rings are phenomenal. They're not thickly breaded like other places, but have a thin crunchy batter that is salty and peppery. Delicious! I miss Nick's now that I'm living in Virginia. But I'll always find myself waiting in line whenever we visit. Thank you for the memories Nick and family. We miss you.

There's a reason they were voted best sandwich in Massachusetts. They are fantastic ! . It's tough to drive a mile on the north shore without seeing someone selling roast beef sandwiches , some are chains others mediocre at best . This is it ! My recommendation go to Nicks you won't be disappointed !

I don't know what's changed but I'm not pleased. I got a three way large beef and I definitely felt like the beef wasn't rare enough and instead of a stack of roast beef like you used to get there was more bun than roast beef. Considering their charging the cost of a Super beef and you get a large. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. I'll give them one more shot but if they do mcScrooge thing again I'm done with them.

Who knew that North Shore is home of the roast beef sandwich? Best roast beef sandwich ever - supported by the dozen placards on the wall that all say Best Roast Beef in America. Get the Super Beef three-way (mayo, bbq, white American cheese). It's a two hand operation but globs of sauce and ribbons of beef will still fall despite your best efforts. The beef is so perfectly rare/carved so thin, you swear you can see through ir. Not enough beef? They also have a roast beef salad. Maybe get the mozz sticks instead though.

2 great Roast beef plates today! Thank you Nicks! Deliciousness! Haven't been able to get there in the last couple of years , did today & was not disappointed

A classic for a reason. The best MA style roast beef place there is. The standard for the New England roast beef sandwich. I sometimes go out of my way to stop in Beverly and get this. As for a super beef "three way". It isn't sexual. Though you might have a mouth orgasm. It is the large roast beef sandwich with bbq sauce, mayo, and cheese. The rest of the food at the restaurant is solid and fresh. But honestly, why would you bother with anything other than that sweet sweet roast beef?

After a long day of travel to Boston my partner and I were craving the famous Nicks Roast Beef. It was our first time at this restaurant and we were beyond excited. As you walk in you are greeted by a team of smiling faces who are all happy to help you. The menu is on the wall and you walk up to the counter to order your delicious choices. After much deliberation we settled on two super Beef sandwiches that were all the way: BBQ sauce, mayonnaise and cheese, onion rings and a large fry. Damn. IT WAS JUST AS AMAZING AS I ANTICIPATED! The roast beef was juicy and delicious and perfectly complicated with all the sauces and cheese. The fries and onion rings were perfectly crisp. I will forever dream of returning to this place! Definitely make sure to check it out!!

Clean place. Massive roast beef sandwiches. Crispy hot pizza. Service was prompt and courteous. They even gave us a couple baby slices as a free appetizer while we waited less than ten minutes for pie.

Best roast beef for the buck loaded with cheese, mayo and their special sauce. Good menu selection. They give you A LOT of fries. I, personally, am not a fan of shoe-string fries but the sandwich made up for it.

Ordered the cheeseburger sub it was really good. Woman who took my order was very sweet. Highly recommend coming here.

Can't beat the OG Nick's. Back in the neighborhood after years and it's always good.

Disgusting I'm literally about to throw up this is gross I don't know why I ate one it is gross

over rated, much better places to go , I found Mickeys on Elliot much better, never disappoint

I love their chicken fingers, french fries and salads. Normally, I'm not in the mood for a roast beef, but they're very tasty.

Nicks has never been a disappointment in the thirty years I have been going there. While the roast beef is beyond compare, the onion rings, chicken fingers and fries are also the best around. The staff is always friendly and efficient, and the certainly know how to move a line. Two thumbs way, way up.

First time in Massachusetts and we wanted to experience a roast beef sandwich. This sandwich brought so much joy into our lives. Out of all the roast beef sandwich shops out there, we made an amazing decision to go to Nick's! I really want to go back inside rn and buy another one just so I can experience it again. Also, everyone is friendly in there it's unbelievable. Love it. Thank you!! Edit: it's been over a week and I am back home in Ca, sad and missing Nick's Roast Beef. I never going to find a sandwich shop like this back home I miss it.

Something comforting about quality and menu staying the same for many years. Prices have stayed reasonable. Known and loved by all the locals. Biggest seller are roast beef sandwich with homemade BBQ sauce on good roll, generous portions. Thank you Nick's for excellence.

Sandwiches are tasty and the size is good. The parking lot is a nightmare, so give yourself extra time to wait for a parking spot to open up.

I have had some good beefs here in the past, but they have since gone way down hill. How many times have I told them "onions well done, beef rare", and how many times do I get onions raw, and beef medium at best? This time was a major no no, they covered one of the beefs in sauce that was ordered and listed on the slip without it. My girlfriend hates sauce on her beef, and she didn't have a single bite of it. We called to get a refund. We explained that we couldn't come in because we drove 45 minutes each way and were not going to be in the area again soon. The Manager's response floored me. She said she wouldn't give a refund over the phone because she couldn't know if I was scamming her. Yes, she basically accused me of lying about my experience at her restaurant. This place is going to sink to the bottom of the North Shore roast beef scene if it continues to treat its customers this way.

I was visiting the North Shore and was starving. Saw this place and rolled in. I got a large meatball sub. DELICIOUS! I inhaled it. Great food and the cashiers are funny with their back and forth banter.
