slides: The Five Best Meatball Sandwiches in Worcester

Thursday, December 18, 2014

Patrick Sargent, GoLocal Worcester Contributor

In Worcester, the meatball sandwich argument is something that could probably go on forever. The Shrewsbury Street area seems to have a tight grip on the meatball sandwich industry. All five places on this list are within less than two and a half miles from one another.

An important reason for this is the strong Italian-American presence in the area of Belmont Street, Shrewsbury Street and Plantation Street. These places know how to make a great meatball and how to sandwich it between two warm pieces of Italian bread, some provolone cheese and some delicious gravy.
