Pull Requests were recently implemented in TFS. Is there a way to force users to make Pull Requests, and have others review it before they can merge into a branch?
I've tried restricting Contribute permissions to the branch for a TFS group, but that prevented them from merging through Pull Requests too.

From the Pull Requests view, select New Pull Request. Select the source and target branches, enter a title and optional description, and select Create. After the PR is created, select Open in browser to open the new PR in the Azure DevOps web portal.
You tagged your question with TFS 2013, and I think that what you strictly ask for is not possible.
But in TFS 2015 and VSO you can access a feature called Branch Policies under the team project settings -> Version Control -> Click your Repository -> Branch Policies.
Well there you tick Require a minimum number of reviewers per pull request. If it is important that other make the review, make sure that Allow users to approve their own changes is not checked.
I have written a blog post which describes it in more detail.
