“Best cheesesteaks in town!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 6, 2012

This is one of those places you may pass by every day and think nothing of it due to the location and the outer appearance, but you are missing out! Philly's by far has the best cheesesteaks in town and the staff is always friendly and most of them get to know the patrons by name.

There are only 3 tables or so inside as it is meant to be a takeout place, so keep that in mind. Also, I would recommend calling in your order as it can get very busy at times and there is usually a wait in the evening due to their popularity.

“Great Cheesesteak Sandwiches!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 25, 2012

Everytime that I go, to Pensacola, I stop here, for a sub, and they're always fantastic. My only complaint is that the price is kind of steep. For a large plain sub and a 12 oz. can, of soda, I gave the clerk a $10.00 bill, and only got a few coins back, as change. You can have lunch, at lots, of all-you-can-eat, buffet restaurants, for much cheaper than that.

“Best cheese steaks in Pensacola area!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 11, 2012

These folks know how to make cheese steaks! These are the authentic deal just like in Philly!
Admittedly, it is an out of the way hole in the wall in a neighborhood strip next door to a pizza take out joint, and offers little in the way of ambiance, but it is worth driving a little out of the way for.
There are three or four tables, but most folks order to go.

“Best Cheesesteaks and Italian Subs - I Love this place!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 19, 2012

I visit my father in Pensacola once a year every year and as soon as he picks me up at the airport I say, we need to stop by Philly's so I can get a cheesesteak! For a cold sandwich my favorite is the Old World Italian.......so so so Good! During my stay I go back at least 5-10 times for lunch, I just cant get enough of this place. When in Pensacola Florida, do yourself a favor and go eat!

“Almost as good as the original”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 18, 2012 via mobile

Ok, having spent 3 year living in Philly and eating my fair share of Pat's and Geno's, I would be tough to please.

On the positive side, bread was fresh, steak and chicken parm both good, and a welcome break from the chain sub shops.

They have a cooler with a good selection of sodas, but this is a take out place. At most there are 8 small tables and the unisex restroom makes an airplane bathroom look luxurious.

Plenty of folks called ahead their order, so it took longer than I expected, maybe 10-15 minutes.

The worst crime of all, no Cheese Whiz! I was at a loss for words, but just got some surly remark from the counter help.

Keeping with the Philly theme, they had Tastykakes or dessert. Yumm!
