Came here only because a place closer just happened to be closed. Very good sandwiches. Ordered the MOP, and a side of gravy fries. Both very good. Will definitely be back. read more

Enjoyed the food here. The atmosphere isn't anything special but the guy who was running the front was funny and gave my son a cookie which made his night so I'm definitely not complaining. read more

Very good sandwiches with chicken cheesesteaks available. Sweet potato fries are very good as well. Quick polite service at the counter or they have a drive thru. read more

My family and I are on vacay and tried the cheesesteaks of course. They were very good. We'll be back.

Always great food! Call your order in with a pick up time and you're good to go! Especially so on Friday and Saturday if you are ordering the fish fry read more

Great local spot. No skimping on the steak or bacon. Staff was personable & friendly.

This is my go-to for a good cheesesteak sandwich at the beach. I go here several times a year when I am in town for vacation or business. The employees are great and always seem willing to provide recommendations if I want something different. The atmosphere isn't much - but, it's a sandwich shop at the beach. My goal is to get in, eat, and get out. I will be back again. read more

We lived in surfside for the winter and ate here a ton! Such good cheesesteaks! Very lean meat which is a must for me! I got the au juice sauce for doing! Yummy! We miss this place! Very nice owners and staff! Also very reasonable! Give them a try. You will be pleased! read more

Got the WIT with whiz today after reading lots of good reviews. Honestly it's very meh, no flavor and hardly any cheese. Pretty disappointing overall. read more

Would have given more than 3 but 3/4 times I've ate here the subs have been bland. Literally no flavor whatsoever. The only reason I'm even giving 3 stars is bc the Alpha Male sub was the one thing that I've had and it was great. Had me stuffed. The other 3 visits I have been disappointed with the lack of taste in the subs and they've been extremely skinny these 3 times. I work across from it and by the time I got back to my store and opened the to go tray to see the sad state of the subs I was already back in my store and unable to take it back across the street. Will MAYBE try again later in the future when maybe they're not using the same cook and HOPEFULLY, I'll be editing this review to the restaurant's favor read more

Great cheesesteaks if a little pricey for a hole in the wall and a long wait to get them prepared. In the age of covid and masks and what not, just be prepared, it ain't happening here. read more

If you are hungry for a great cheesesteak, come to Cheesesteak Factory. They have some of the BEST cheesesteaks, burgers, fish, and more. I absolutely love eating here and try to get there as often as I can. The staff is very friendly, and they have specials, and a good variety of items on their menu. It's one of the local's favorite places to eat, at least it is to this local! read more

Good cheesesteak, could have used some salt and pepper, but we enjoyed it. They were out of pierogi so that was a bummer. My kid really enjoyed the BLT sub. read more

This is my FAVORITE place to go to for cheesesteak sandwiches in Myrtle Beach! I usually get mine with everything AND I get au jus for dipping on the side. This place has a nice little pepper/condiment station. The staff has always been kind and attentive. The owner is a SUPER cool, nice, funny guy! When in Myrtle Beach, you MUST go to the Cheesesteak Factory! It's awesome! read more

Cheesesteak Factory - The MOP with jalapeños...AMAZING! - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Surfside Beach, South Carolina

Fingers Crossed That They Make Your Meal Right... Man what a crappy experience in customer service and quality product. We ordered $48 worth of stuff including 3 sandwiches. Order had one with chez whiz, one with provolone, one with no cheese. Somehow NONE of them had any cheese. They were all ordered to go and when we got home and noticed we called to inform them of the problem. The owner got on the phone and proceeded to tell me how they definitely did have cheese even though I had the cheese-less steak in my fingers as we talked. He even told me how he regularly gets complaints about the chez whiz sandwiches because it "looks" like it doesn't have cheese. (Hint: if you regularly get complaints...then Fix It!) Anyway, I mentioned to the owner that we've been there before on previous vacations and it was our first choice for lunch in this trip. He apparently didn't care cause he clearly got tired of talking to me and trying to convince me of how wrong I was cause he suddenly started a tirade saying "ok so what is it you want? What do you want us to do? You want a ton of free sandwiches, is that what you want?..." etc with a really nasty attitude. TBH, we would've been happy with a store credit cause we wouldn't have minded coming back another day, or even just a genuine apology. But after that kind of nasty response from the owner he clearly doesn't mind losing a customer that has to feed a family of 5. So after he told me to just bring back the uneaten sandwiches I did just that, I brought the 2 sandwiches back for a refund and a goodbye to the establishment. We won't be coming back. Btw...upon returning the sandwiches the staff that looked through them seemed to confuse a speck of mayonnaise to be the same as provolone melted on a cheesesteak, but also clearly noticed that there was zero chez whiz on the other sandwich. In short, this place is a solid 3.5 overall because they serve exactly what should be expected: standard tasty simple sandwiches, not amazing but decent. Not cheap but reasonably priced and made fresh (when made right). It's a 2.5 for speed so expect a long wait for your sandwich, took us almost 25 minutes. Service from staff is a 2.5 to a 4 depending on who's at the register. Management is clearly a 1 from my experience. The one thing I'll give a 4 to are the homemade chips; lightly seasoned and salted, very yummy. I don't give 1-star ratings just cause I didn't like a single experience, but I had to give it a 2 because it would've been a 3.5 until the Owner showed just how little he cares about his customers. read more

Have got there cheesesteak sandwich it was the best of the best I am from Rochester he keeps bringing the Rochester back to his place hot dogs know the garbage plate this people are the best love it read more

Cheesesteak Factory - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Surfside Beach, South Carolina

Haddock Haddock Haddock is all I can say. It is just like it is in ny. So good and very friendly people there. A customer for life.

I'm from Philly & have lived here for 2 years. I drive past this place every day & never came here bc I thought there was no way it would meet my expectations. Well, I was wrong. PERFECT CHEESESTEAK!!! I will definitely be back! A taste of home read more

This place advertises they use ribeye steak. When I got the philly, the decent bun was filled with the steak mix. They didn't skip on the portion. However, the steak was so chopped up, it was like eating a steakum. I was expecting some resemblance to ribeye. The flavor was ok, but nothing special. The service was ok, except the lady that took my order never smiled, and looked annoyed the entire time I was in there. I probably won't go back. Try Jellie Bean and Co. just up the road for a better sandwich, and truly wonderful sidewinder fries. read more

The order was ready very quickly. It was a still warm when I got home. I felt that they forgot the mayo and I didn't see any cheese either. I felt the lettuce was cut to thick/wide and the tomato dices were also to large for the sammie. It was my first time eating there. read more

I made an effort to visit here while on vacation in the area and get a cheesesteak as I love a good cheesesteak. Last year I was unable to make it in and despite the reviews having taken a downturn from the prior year I was determined to give it a try. I should have heeded the prior posts. I ordered a cheesesteak to go, paid and waited. And waited. And waited. Thankfully all this waiting gave me ample time to watch things. Things like... The flys circulate around the food toppings (ex. lettuce, tomatoes, sauces, etc.) that are used for other meals. Or how about the cook who uses smokeless tobacco and while over the grill turns his head to spit into the trashcan to the left of him. Or how about the tables being left to sit, uncleaned, after the few patrons that sat there had left. Or how about the utensils being used for both raw meat and cooked meat at the same time...that also had a fly or two land on it. Or how about the people walking around with the gloves on scratching themselves or going outside and coming back and grabbing all kinds of things with the SAME gloves on. Or the 2 people just standing around doing nothing while the one spitting guy tries to cook two orders on one grill with two more grills sitting idle. Look, I like a mom-n-pop place and don't expect a super clean place but there was plenty that could have been done by the 2 people standing around to keep things neat and tidy. Oh, the food is ready. Great. Only took 24 minutes to cook it up with one customer ahead of me that also waited. Let's bite into this and taste a...ugh, stringy, fat-laced meat. There's enough cheese but the steak part was terrible. After spitting out 2 of 5 bites into a 10" cheesesteak due to stringy, fat-laced meat I wrapped it up and tossed it. Disappointed. The quality was genuinely terrible. I will not be back and could not recommend to anyone else. read more

The cheesesteak rocks, the fried haddock dinners are just like the ones I used to get in Rochester, NY. Now Dusty brought in Zwiegle hot dogs!!! Love the white dog trash plate! Thanks D for giving me some home town cooking!!! read more

We did take out. Service was fast. Food was fabulous and hot when we got home. We got the mozzarella sticks, MOP cheesesteak and the CBS toppings on a salad. All was good and plentiful. Huge menu with a lot of selections. This place is hidden gem! read more

I am a local and hadn't been here in over a year because I had not had a great encounter. I decided to give it another try tonight. I went through to drive through, waited behind someone else for 10 mins. Get to the window, a sign says no orders through drive through. (Ok my fault it's been a while) I park and go inside I'm the only one inside to place an order. I'm at the counter and the woman says let me take care of the drive through truck. (Umm no first come first serve is the proper customer service way). Mind you I waited another 8 minutes while she rung up separate orders and an add on order for the truck that arrived to the pull up window after me. I ended up leaving and not ordering. One more mention is she said well it's 45 mins wait for pickup you could have ordered ahead. Well. I tried. Phone didn't work either. Needless to say I walked away, didn't order and will not be back. What a shame read more

They are east coast, have a a Philly cheesesteak, but offer no sweet peppers?? I'm from Philly. I know a Philly cheesesteak when I taste one. This was not that. Too much wiz overpowered what little flavor the steak and onions offered. My daughter had an Italian hoagie. A cross between Subway and authentic. Just ok. Overall, a C+ effort, but not enough to go back. read more

It was our first time eating here.... won tickets off the radio..SAD to say if we had to buy the subs they would have gotten them back..... chips were SO salty didn't eat them.... mushrooms were NOT grilled... the subs looked as though they threw them in the box....very bland.... I was born and raised here... My friends did try to tell me that the food has went downhill but we said oh what the hell lets try it.... hopefully in the future for all others that do eat there the cooks will take a little more pride when cooking... btw i have served ALL over this beach so I'm speaking from both sides!!!! read more

The best cheesesteak sandwiches around! I used to go to "Peppers" in Socastee which has awesome cheesesteak sandwiches but, since I tried The Cheesesteak Factory, I'm going here from now on. Their fish fry on Friday and Saturday is by far the best fish fry in all of Myrtle Beach. You get the whole fish(haddock) fried to a nice golden brown, French fries and some homemade coleslaw. read more

Went there 3 days ago. The cheesesteak sandwich lacked flavor and the bacon cheese fries were way too salty.

Ordered ahead by phone and picked up using the drive thru. Food was delicious! We had 2 of the meat & cheesesteaks that were great, and the funnel cake fries are RIDICULOUS! Will definitely be returning here! Only thing I would change would be online ordering through their website, but that's no biggie. read more

The Friday fish sandwich gets 5 stars from my husband. He said it was the best in Myrtle Beach! My daughter and I give the cheesesteak 4 stars. Good food! read more

My family and I visited the Cheesesteak Factory on our annual holiday vacation. My parents tasked me with finding a local restaurant and I of course looked on Yelp to find a hidden gem. It wasn't long before I stumbled across the Cheesesteak Factory and we all agreed we should try it. When we walked in we were greeted by friendly faces and mouth watering smells. The restaurant is relatively small but very clean. It took us awhile to order because there were a lot of options. I chose the regular cheesesteak, fries, and a brew. The cheesesteak was by far the best I've had. My family also enjoyed their meals and thanked me for finding the restaurant. All in all a great experience! I can't wait to go back to South Carolina to visit Cheesesteak Factory!! read more

My husband and I have been there twice. The first time was a year ago. We both got the philly cheesesteak and chips. Its was amazing. No complaints and we knew that we would be back. Fast forward to a year later and I'm totally disgusted with the total change of food quality. We got the exact same thing as last time (stick with something we know we liked last time). So many things wrong! The meat tasted and looked like a cooked tire, lettuce was rancid and wilted, the chips were soft and super oily. Not to mention the workers were very rude and disrespectful while there. The cook didn't have a hair net on his head or very long beard. The kitchen also looked like it hadn't been deep cleaned in a year. Moral to the story, I'm not sure if they switched owners or if they just got extremely lazy, but I am sure that my family and I will not be going back. read more

We came here because my husband wanted a cheesesteak sandwich. I'm not a fan of any fast food, but when I saw their sign advertising that they serve Zweigel's hotdogs from Rochester NY, I took a chance. The only hotdogs I've ever eaten are Hebrew Nationals or Nathan's. I expected Zweigel's to be similar. I took only one bite. It had little taste and an unusual texture as well. The bun was dry and cold. Their sweet potato fries were acceptable, but their tea was tasteless. To make it worse, the cost of my hotdogs, fries and drink was twelve dollars. On the way out, we saw the manager/owner, who was very pleasant, yet when I explained my bad experience, he did not offer a refund. My husband enjoyed his meal, but I won't be returning. read more

This place was great back in the day, but we will never go back! The house made chips were soggy, the cheesesteaks were ok at best. The guys in the kitchen were cussing and so loud that I had to ask them to keep the bad language down because it was offending my wife. Save your money folks! $30.00 for 2 half assed cheesesteaks and soggy chips was a total rip off!! Never Ever Again! Bye Felicia! read more

Was delicious highly recommend! Best Philly cheese sub i've had in awhile. Definitely try the gravy fries was something i've never had before read more

I met the owner, Dusty who took orders at the counter, as well as the drive up window. Dusty takes the orders and sends them to the kitchen via a rope and some large clips (which I found quite funny). He began to explain how he left a job at a large food corporation and moved to Myrtle Beach and opened up Cheesesteak Factory. This restaurant is deli style with only the freshest ingredients, without additives and produce from local farmers. All salads are hand made daily and bread is also fresh. Because of their fussiness with freshness, the wait may take a little longer, but it's worth it. I was present when they were baking their home made chocolate chip cookies. And no, I saw no cheesecake on the menu. Their french fries are fresh cut, not frozen, and they were fresh tasting and crispy, delicious. We ordered the pastrami sandwiches, with melted swiss, which weren't microwaved, were tasty and delicious. The cost for 2 pastrami sandwiches, one order of fries and two drinks came to about $21.00, tip is optional at the counter. We will definitely be back again, in the very near future. I hope this review doesn't create too long of a line. read more

FIRST! Wow this place brings me back to my winter and summer vacations in Surfside. Of course I ordered a cheesesteak with the stereotypical cheese wiz. I'm no wiz, but I know a cheesesteak when I see a cheesesteak. This restaurant is a great place to take your children. They are family friendly. I hope you all come to eat here. read more

Under new ownership, a guy from Philly owns it now and you can tell immediately. Prices are still a little steep but are completely worth it as portions have increased, taste is on-par with the best of them, and the staff really goes out of your way to make sure you're satisfied. Plus, their sweet potato fries were out of this world. Change is good. read more
