Reviews
The atmosphere was great, with lots of decorations on the walls and a good choice of music. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to our expectations. Carolina Reaper crisps were not spicy at all, and while the Classic Cheesesteak was decent, it wasn't particularly memorable. The onion rings were quite disappointing too - taste was meh and not worth the price. On the brighter side, tater tots were crispy and piping hot when served so we did enjoy it. A discretionary 13.5% service charge was added to the bill even though there was only one person working on the floor that day, which didn't feel justified. Overall, not somewhere I'd return to.
Came for breakfast, had the Classic breakfast, food was good really hit the spot but nothing extravagant but this place is proudly an American dive bar so wouldn’t expect anything else. Interior is cool and service was good, also very conveniently located close to High Street Kensington. Would return for sure. Good for a hearty simple breakfast at very reasonable price for the area.
I finally made it to this branch of Passyunk and I think it's my favorite so far. Each one has a bit of a unique vibe and this one seems like the coziest and best for just chilling and hanging out. As always, the food is super good, we had the Buffalo Wrap, Mozzarella Sticks and then the massive Brunch option. Fantastic food.
Found a place in Central London that does genuine Philly Cheesesteaks. One word... INCREDIBLE!!! Vibes are great, staff is friendly, food delicious and fair prices, especially for Central London. An instant favorite for me! Several locations , if you see one, definitely try it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Really good vibes, well priced food. Brilliant onion rings and aubergine cheese sandwich. The deep fried aubergine and cheese steak spring rolls were a highlight. The nachos were good/ok. The quesadilla was nice unless you got a bit with a pretty big birds eye chilli, in which case it was sooo spicy! The mozzarella sticks were quite disappointing and didn't taste of anything. But overall, we will be back!
