Met the new manager who has cleaned up the store and we had a nice chat. I watched the chef make my order. Let me tell you the cheesesteak sandwich was sooooo good. Had the original chicken, cheese, onion on a huge fresh roll. I was hooked on the first bite. Warm sweet chicken cooked with onions then melted white cheese on top, scooped up and put on the warm fresh bread roll. I am one very satisfied and returning customer. I also got a chicken Cesar salad to go. Had them put the chicken in a separate container so the lettuce would stay fresh. The team at Bruchi's in Cheney should win an award. Highly recommend

Men's room. At least they had toilet but not in the dispenser. Is this a health code violation?

I Ordered a classic 12" and took it back to my hotel. This wasn't a fancy dinner, but I literally wrote home about it. The meat was so flavorful, the onions so tender, and the exact amount of cheese to saturate but not make a goopy mess. I'm very happy with this place, even though I only tried one thing.

I recommend getting them extra crispy. My wife is always a fan of the chicken cheesesteak and tbh, it's a hard decision which meat I get when I order because they're both so good. I hope you enjoy this place as much as I always have. It was always my first meal back on my way home from deployment. Sadly we hit up Bruschis before we even got home.

My wife and I stopped by here yesterday for a late breakfast in which I ordered the B&G plate with a side of 2 over-medium eggs. My wife ordered the Denver omellet. They didn't disappoint. The biscuits were a little dry and crumbly but the gravy made up for it. Good texture and flavor but don't forget to add a little hot sauce. My wife enjoyed her Denver. I tried it and it was solid. BTW, a ton of food. Get a to-go box even though I'm a fat guy in which I powered through mine. For me, this place is right up my alley. No frills. Just a old timey hole in a wall place that serves the comfort foods that I like. Service is great, place appears to be clean, and didn't upset my stomach after eating there. 4.5 stars out of 5. Highly recommend for like-minded individuals like myself! Cheers!
