A nice hole in the wall authentic Mexican restaurant. They give you a large portion for the price and the horchata is amazing! I did a pick up order and the food came out pretty fast and workers were nice. The location is a small tidy restaurant. Can't go wrong with this restaurant if you're craving Mexican. read more

Found this place on Yelp and tried it out. Chancla meaning Sandals or Flip Flops. The restaurant is small and nicely decorated they even sell Mexican chips, drinks and homemade desserts. We ordered: Chicken Verde Enchiladas: Big portion they where really good and served with rice and beans. Rice was flavorful and not overcooked. Carnitas and Al Pastor Tacos: Yummy served with grilled Mexican onions and radishes. Free chips with beans: Good and homemade Salsa Verde yummy. Pina Agua Fresca: Not to sweet and refreshing. Over all the food was good authentic and the service was good will definitely return soon and try other food options. read more

This place will racially profile you. Upon arrival we were overcharged for our four steak tacos. My friend and I regularly order from them on door dash so we know the prices. They over charged us by $4. The price on their sign and on door-dash said their steak tacos were $3.50 per taco and we were charged $4.25 per taco. We mentioned it and they refunded us, then yet still over charged us a full dollar for tax on them. We just left at this point.. Extremely Odd. If you order you will get better service ordering online. read more

Super solid Mexican spot. Food is very tasty and portion sizes are huge. Prices are a tiny bit on the higher side but you get what you pay for for sure. Salsa Verde is some of the best I ever had. Fries on the side of the burrito is a combo I never knew I needed, it was delicious. read more

Great local Mexican spot. Meat is sometimes dry, but their sopes are HUGE. Can't beat it. And they're always very kind to me read more

Amazing food! Some of the best tacos (Mexican food) I've ever had. Their horchata is also superb! Everything is so worth the price! I'm Im full after 2 tacos but still try to finish my tostada. Service is friendly and fast! I would come here every week if it wasn't so far from home read more

La Chancla - three plates of food on a table - Mexican Near Me - Eagleville, Pennsylvania

The real deal. Small, clean, friendly. Staff only spoke Spanish so that added a special bonus! The food was great! We had chili relleno and chilaquiles. read more

A little on the pricier side, but the food is pretty good. I usually get takeout since the inside isn't anything to write home about.

I wish I would have taken pictures of the food but the shrimp tacos and the Carnitas platter were absolutely delicious. Nothing to complain about. Definitely give this business your support. They deserve it. read more

I'd been looking forward to trying out La Chancla for months after several of my spanish speaking amigos had told me about their gigantic tortas and delicioso food. I finally made it in after driving by it two days in a row; the restaurant is in the middle of a residential area and, to me, looks just like a house from the outside! Well, regardless, I made it inside and was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere is mostly nondescript, with the exception of two cute tables outside for dining al fresco. Everything looked clean and nice though. There was one server inside and she was super nice about letting me practice mi espanol while ordering and paying for my burrito al pastor that I had been craving for days. I was ravenous and didn't take a hard look at the menu to see their other offerings, but I've heard they have these huge sandwiches that feed a family and they were in the 12 dollar range. My burrito was really great, and gigantic as well. The meat was really flavorful, and it was the first time in my limited al pastor experience that I could really see and taste the pineapple. Mine looked pretty much exactly like the one in Tom D.'s picture. I am pretty happy that I decided to go in, and I'm looking forward to trying out the rest of their menu. I'm sure it won't replace my favorites in the city, but it's so nice to have options like this close to home! read more

La Chancla - dining al fresco. - Mexican Near Me - Eagleville, Pennsylvania

Good, but not great. I have 4 different types of tacos. The worst was the Chicharones con salsa verde and arroz. The best was the al pastor. I wish the mole had more spice. Each taco was really big and super filling. I think the star of the show may have been the slice of chocolate cake that was out of this world. I'll come back, but it wasn't anything to write home about. read more

Since moving to the area about 6 months ago I've been on a search for a good local Mexican restaurant. I've tried the other places listed on yelp and a few others that weren't listed but this is my new favorite. I got the al pastore burrito - of note b/c many 'authentic' Mexican places don't have burritos. Mine was wonderful, full of meat, rice, frijoles, LTO and avocado as well as a generous helping of queso fresco. I got mine to go and it was delicious. It came with fries and some fresh house salsa. They do have a menu in english, but fare is typical of any authentic mexican establishment. they have on the menu tacos, as for the atmosphere - it is pretty small, but nice and comfortable. they have a few tables with chairs out front on the porch. As they don't accept credit cards you will need to take cash. I only had $8 on me, but that was enough for my delicious burrito. They also have a cooler full of soda and fruit nectars etc. They also have mexican coke (made with cane sugar, in a glass bottle). Try it if you've never had it before - it's much better than regular coke. read more

This was, hands down, the best Mexican food we have ever had. Dined with my boyfriends mom, who was born in El Paso to Mexican immigrants, and she agreed- it was fantastic. Lunch started with them bringing three tamales to the table; chicken, beef and a fantastic vege with cheese, all delicious! We had chicken enchiladas with mole- a huge plate with all the "side dishes", a taco bowl with carne asada, and a carne taco that was unlike any we ever saw before, like a think steak on a taco shell with avocados and more. Rice horchata was fantastic. Great service, adorable restaurant and even smelled fresh and clean. It was terrific! read more

Absolutely love this place. Food is always delicious! Orders are always processed quickly and you can't beat the price!

I was invited for a work lunch, and being overly picky I chose a chicken quesadilla. It was huge! The chicken was cooked perfectly and the veggies were noticably fresh. We were also given complimentary nachos that were delicious. The chips seemed housemade with beans and a small sprinkle of cheese. The red salsa was hot hot and to die for. I'm already planning on going again. read more

La Chancla - Sorry, I took the photo when it was half gone. - Mexican Near Me - Eagleville, Pennsylvania

Still love this place, we go all the time. But some important updates: 1. The taco I previously referred to with the pineapple is actually the al pastor tacos NOT the pork with sauce. Not sure why we use to get al pastor when we ordered pork with sauce, but probably because the kind waitress knew we really didn't ACTUALLY want the pork with sauce which is more like a wiggly chicharron. You might like it, I do not. 2. They do take credit cards, but I think it has a $10 minimum AND if you want to leave a tip on your card, you have to tell them before they run it. 3. This is our favorite neighborhood taqueria. Try it out. My go-tos anymore are the al pastor and chorizo tacos. And, for some reason, they have the best French fries. Seriously. read more

I love this place! I moved here from Southern California. And it has been hard finding Mexican food that compares to Southern California. This place hits the spot. read more

Having lived in Mexico for 7 years and knowing what GOOD and authentic food tastes like, I was ecstatic to find this place. Once you taste authentic Mexican food, you will not stop searching until you find it near your home!! We have tried other places, and this one is our go-to when we crave tacos, a quesadilla, etc. My husband and I eat here 3-4 times per month. It is a small place and we have grown rather attached to the regular server. The food is absolutely delicious and while I have tried a few dishes, I love their quesadilla con pastor so much that I keep asking for it! However, their tacos al pastor are delicious!! My husband has eaten many dishes on their menu, such as gorditas, enchiladas and chicken en mole. Their delicious food is consistent, as is their service, and I have never eaten anything here that I didn't like!! read more

Authentic Mexican food outside the dangerous part of Norristown (leave your knives at home). This place is in walking distance of my home. I rarely go there but if they are making fresh corn on the cob outside you must stop! It's like stepping into Mexico. Their signature dish that shares the name sake is a tasty treat. read more

I was very fortunate to have a co-worker bring two of us 4 of the most beautiful soft tacos (beef) & it was soooo worth it. I hadn't planned in eating tacos, namely cuz i forgot that he was bringing them in. Very very good. worth a trip if i happen to be around the Norristown area.. first impressions, so want more!!! read more

Legit Mexican place. I was the only white person there amongst 6 mexican dudes who were watching MTV Tres with Corridos playing. The server/hostess's English isn't the best, but the food is solid. They don't have paper menus or I would have uploaded one. Someone could take a pic of the menu if they sat down to eat. Menu: Tacos: Carnitas, Al Pastor, Chicken, Cebolla, ... Gorditas: " Tortas: " Chancla: Signature dish, like an oblong breadish, thick tortilla with your choice of meat, queso fresco and onions/cilantro Burritos: Al Pastor, Asada, ... Enchiladas: with either green or red sauce There's other menu items, but you get the idea. If you've ever eaten real Mexican food from a cart in New York or someplace similar, it's like that. Drinks: Jarritos, Coca-Cola (made with sugar instead of HFCS) and regular Coca-Cola as well, Fanta, etc. etc. read more

I don't think I was as impressed with some of the other reviews in here. It's a small place not quite of the 'hole-in-the-wall' nature. Off-street parking is available. The menu is simple and traditional... so if you're looking for the texmex, don't come here. Everything about it was average for this type of Mexican restaurant in Norristown. The food wasn't bad, but I've had better. I would go back. read more

So I went in today and ordered the burrito because I tried to order the bake chicken but they said they dont make it .i pointed to it on the menu still didn't help.Anyways the burrito was mediocre at best. The rice was the best part. Food had no flavor really and i didn't eat all day.Thats speaks for it self almost anything is good when you haven't ate all day. I was in the area for work and tried it due to the yelpers but anyways the burrito was no bueno. read more

Very very good food. The best Mexican food ever. If you don't come and eat here your loss because the food and service is excellent and at a good price. Plus they reopened today after they closed for 2 weeks for renovation and the place looks great.Viva Mexico cabrones read more

$13 4 tacos and tostada de camaron. So good and priced just right. Need to support them more regularly. Great food.

Found this quaint casita via Yelp and my little family and I LOVE it. It's a quiet sunny day and every thing from the carnitas to horchata reminded me of home if you're in town looking for authentic, fresh eats with a kind staff- this is the spot read more

The quesadillas are handmade and amazing. Tacos are great. Servers are nice. Check this place out. One of the best Mexican places around.

Everything is very good. Massive everything. Quesadillas are literally like a foot long! Tortas are huge too. Prices may seem quite high ( $13.00 that time I went for 1 'torta de milanesa', usually $6-$7 other places) but when I received my food it was BIG! Go try it out! read more

La Chancla - Shrimp tostada....one of the most amazing things I've put in my mouth EVER!!! So fresh , and just amazing - Mexican Near Me - Eagleville, Pennsylvania

La Chancla is the real deal Mexican joint. It's tucked away a bit northwest of Norristown but definitely worth it. The name translates to "flip flops" To start they give you chips and a spicy salsa verde that has some avocado chunks in it - delicious. La Chancla is known for a few items: - Chancla - this is their house special "huarache" which is a fluffy tortilla topped with beans, meat, cheese, onions, lettuce, etc. This is a must try - for meat, I like it with carne asada or tinga de pollo. - tortas - the tortas (mexican sandwich) here are giant size. Try it with milanesa or al pastor. - Quesadilla - it is massive and authentic (made with a crispy corn tortilla stuffed with meat, lettuce, and cheese) Grab some horchata to wash it all down and cool off your mouth. Cash only. read more

A Norristown gem...The Tortas are amazing. Stopped on a whim and did not disappoint. Highly recommended.

Had a great Lunch here today! I have been disappointed by some of the Mexican lately but this place hit the mark! Be aware they only take cash. I had the Pork Tacos and Beans and Rice and Two tables next to me had Platters. The Steak, Braised Chicken, The house Dish A "sandal" with chicken and a nice looking Burrito. The place was nice and clean and the owner was very nice. Well worth a try! read more

La Chancla is a traditional Taquería that specializes in tortas (sandwiches). I really want to like this place. I can walk to it from my place. But, I've had several things on the menu and I'm just not a fan. The owner is really nice, and the service is fast. I've gone through all the standards (tacos, burritos, enchiladas, quesadilla) and it's all bland to me. Admittedly, I haven't had a tortas because I'm not truly a sandwich guy, but I'd expect you to hit the staples right first. There's a million Mexican places in Norristown. I guess I'm still on the hunt read more

This place is great! Large portions at inexpensive prices. The service is friendly. The menu offers plenty of good choices. The dining area is casual and outside seating is available. They also have off street parking. This is one of my favorite places to eat. read more

Absolutely delicious, authentic Mexican food. Huge portions at great prices. I had the chicken enchilada with green sauce. It was spicy but SO good! Looked and tasted very fresh. Its in a nicer part of Norristown and has a cute outdoor seating area. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is comfortable. They don't serve alcohol but it's worth the visit just for the food! Excellent! read more

I walked in there one day is it smelled so awful and it looks so dirty that I turned around and left.

Highly recommend the steak torta and don't forget the sauces! Food was a bit costly, but considering the portions and authenticity of a Mexican cuisine was worth it. read more

Definitely not somewhere I would recommend for good Mexican cuisine. The only reason I give it 2 stars is because it's located near me.

La Chancla catered my daughters wedding, and I'm so glad she decided on this restaurant. Many of us had the "sandal" looking burrito (mentioned in another review) and we had a choice of sizzling steak/chicken or pork smothered with rice, beans and many other toppings. The portions were substantial, and wedding guests raved about the food. Thank you again, La Chancla read more
