Originally from Louisiana, po'boys are delicious sandwiches filled with everything from roast beef to fried seafood. They're usually served on French bread and come covered in a rich sauce. The best places for po'boys near our Cambridge apartments include:

Sam LaGrassa's 

Founded by  Boston native Sam LaGrassa in 1968, Sam LaGrassa's is all about food. The team makes the sauces and dressings from scratch  and prepares the meat fresh in-house daily. Enjoy the pastrami po'boy. It features pastrami topped with Swiss and honey mustard on a French round roll. Complete your meal with potato salad or fries lightly seasoned with kosher salt. Save time by ordering online.

For food and fun, head to Boston's Seaport District, where you will find MJ O'Connor's Irish Pub. It welcomes friends and families who come to share laughter and stories over a delicious meal and ice-cold drinks. Sample the Nor'Easter fish po'boy.
