Top 5 Falafel Shops in Worcester

Posted by .

We’re lucky here in Worcester, we have a ton of great falafel joints. This week, I guest blogged for RealWorcester.com about the Top 5 Falafel Shops in Worcester.

There are two places that I wish could have have made the list. Patriots House of Pizza located at 332 Pleasant Street and Simon’s (closed for good).

Patriots would definitely have made the cut, but they recently removed falafel from their menu. Let’s hope they decide to rethink their decision!

Simon’s Falafel and Pizza, on the otherhand, is not open anymore. If it was, it would definitely make the Top 5. Simon’s was located right next to the Paladium, which was most of its appeal. You could grab a cheap falafel sandwhich while you waited in line for a show.

I went to Simon’s whenever the Juggalos from Insane Clown Posse invade our beautiful downtown. I bought a $4 falafel and $2 fries to enjoy while I watched as 15-year-olds dressed as scary clowns lined up to see a performance of their favorite rap-rock band. They were scary makeup and chanted obcenities. This year when Gwar played with ICP at the Palladium, I watched morosely from across the street. I miss Simon’s.

Simon’s, this is your eulogy. I wish you were still here with us. RIP.

Anyway, read the Top 5 List on RealWorcester to find out who made the cut.

    Aww, Simon’s and ICP is such a good way to spend a few hours.

    Following the links back and forth from Realworcester.com, I am unable to find the actual list.
    Your link takes me to the Realworcester comments page (no article) and the Realworcester comments page brings me back here.

    I don’t know if I don’t like falafels, or I’ve just not had good falafels. What makes a good falafel?

    Thanks for adding us as a friend on Foodbuzz. We welcome you to come visit our site!

    Can anyone actually get to the list? I cannot find it anywhere and i am literally in the midst of the HUGEST falafel craving in recorded history. I think it’s an issue with the site as i am having the same issue with the Vegan/Vegitarian friendly resturants

    I haven’t been able to get to the list either. Can someone who has seen the blog just list the 5 top falafel shops in a comment here?

  9. drew - February 18, 2009

    I moved the list to http://VegWorcester.com/top-5-falafel-2008/

    Hope this works now!
