Looks great but I'd be overwhelmed taking orders, especially if it was busy crunch time.
Correct you are, proper rolls are vital to a great tasting cheesesteak.

Sarcone’s is the gold standard. When they had the deli opened years ago, their sandwiches were killer. The best.
The variety of rolls they make are excellent. I don’t know if they still make tomato pie but it was pretty good as well ( have you ever had a bad tomato pie? Nah, me neither ).
Thought the same thing until my recent order from Whiz Kids in Bethlehem Twp was screwed up and I got one by mistake. Surprisingly, I loved it and get them whit wiz occasionally. Adds a nice tangy flavor.
For the Lehigh valley people Whiz Kids is pretty good. I think Bayou in Bethlehem has them as well, same owners.
I was just going to post that I just mooch off of my Penn State friends.We haven’t done our Boursin cheese steak extravaganza in a few years.
We may be due this year. Will keep folks posted. McAndrew stamp of Approval!

If you’re on Facebook and like to try different places for hoagies and cheesesteaks, the Hoagie Gurus page is well worth the follow.
Yinz don't know chit. Bennet's, original shop in Kennebunk, ME, Portsmouth, NH, and near Fenway Pahk.
This is a video I send to friends who ask about Philly steaks....gives a good look at 16 spots. Not sure about the vegan one though.....

I finally made it to Jim's Steaks (4th & South, in Philadelphia), which reopened on May 1, 2024, after being closed for 21 months after a fire did serious damage to the building. It did not disappoint -- it remains in the top 5 of cheesesteaks, IMHO.
I want an invite. I’ve heard about that tailgate.We haven’t done our Boursin cheese steak extravaganza in a few years.

Anybody remember Feeb’s in the Chicago area? It was Beef’s spelled backwards. Italian seasoned beef by the pound with poppyseed rolls - use the same rolls for hot dogs out there. They also gave you a little container of au jus with some horseradish sauce. Oh man, heaven on earth.
Was just back in the area and got a cheesesteak at "Steaks" in west Chester. It was one of the best I've had. Ranks with anything in the city.
Outriggers bar and grill in Sebastian Florida. Prime rib cheese steak ( one of the best ever) side order of sweet potato fries, drizzled with honey. To die for.
It's technically Micco, not Sebastian, but you're not wrong.Outriggers bar and grill in Sebastian Florida. Prime rib cheese steak ( one of the best ever) side order of sweet potato fries, drizzled with honey. To die for.
Where is the best cheesesteak? Well! I found it. It is the shop where everyone goes to get their cheesesteak fix. For me it is CC Peppers in State College.
Granted, I haven't tried them for about twenty five years, but I never saw the appeal of CC Peppers.
So what is your point? I haven't had spinach, broccoli, kale, liver in more years than I can remember, I never saw the appeal of any of them.
Campus Steaks is very good, as is We Are. My favorite cheesesteak right now in State College is at Local Whiskey. The large is actually 2 10” steaks, so it’s great for taking one away to eat later at the hotel or on the way home after a game.
Tks,. Every few miles it's a different area. lol. I believe the name of the sandwich is the "hightide"
The bars Local Whiskey and Central Reservation share the same kitchen. When Cheesesteaks are on the menu at Central Res. It’s the same sandwich. And yes, you nailed it. The Cheesesteaks at those bars are very good.
Yes, they are the same kitchen and both are connected. I’ve just always had better luck getting seated at Local.
Had one of the best in recent memory at Joe's Pizza in Loyalsock the other day. They make their own bread - it looks sort of like flat bread, but it's just a roll.
Cheesesteak Hoagie - Steak, cheese, lettuce, tomato, mayo.
This is what their own baked rolls look like (looks like a turkey sub). They seem to be made so you don't have to gouge the middle of the roll out and still fit all the good stuff inside.

Agree On the Local Whiskey cheesesteak. I know this is a thread about cheesesteaks but the chicken sandwich at Local Whiskey is outstanding as well.
Sort of looks like a “ Wedgie” roll which are pretty popular here in the State College and surrounding area and western Pennsylvania for “ hoagies“.Had one of the best in recent memory at Joe's Pizza in Loyalsock the other day.

My rule of thumb is if they advertise “Philly Cheesesteak” then it’s not going to be good.
