Amos' Place

$

Within Stoltzfus Meats, a meat-centric supermarket selling all things sausage, cold cuts, and cheese, is Amos' Place, a popular deli serving breakfast and lunch. A surprisingly lengthy menu includes cheesesteaks, subs, and broasted chicken (similar to fried chicken), and there are salads for the cholesterol-challenged. Order at the counter and snag a table, or grab something to go.

Cosmi's Deli

$ | East Passyunk

If you want to avoid the neon-lit tourist-center of cheesesteaks and go where the locals go, head to Cosmi's. It's a true Philadelphia corner deli, where all the meat is cut to order and the person taking your order will let you know if they think you're ordering incorrectly; we suggest trying a cheesesteak on a seeded roll with Cooper sharp cheese and fried onions to taste what the hype is all about.

Dalessandro's

$ | Roxborough

This very popular and celebrated spot for big, juicy cheesesteaks also makes quality hoagies. Call ahead to place your order and avoid lines.

Across from Independence Hall, the world's largest Wawa convenience store (at over 11,000 square feet) is located inside an impressive historic structure and sells a grand assortment of satisfying quick bites all day long, including breakfast items and their famous made-to-order hoagie sandwiches. There's also pizza, wraps, and plenty of grab-and-go foods, such as pre-made fruit bowls and salads, along with aisles of packaged snacks. (Wawa's coffee is a local favorite, too).
