Early morning in the Philadelphia airport and I needed a quick breakfast as I hustled to my flight. The name of the restaurant drew my attention first. However, it was too early and they weren't selling the Philly cheesesteaks yet. Too bad! I'll have to try that next time in that airport. I was about to leave when I saw Taylor ham on the menu! This is something that is not served everywhere and kind of unique to the eastern USA, in my opinion. I mostly familiar with Taylor Ham, from my time in New York City. Anyway, I thought I would try it. I was thrilled to see my server, cooking up my fried eggs, freshly on the grill. He was quick and efficient. He seasoned them up perfectly. The cheese was melted all over the eggs, nice and gooey. That was placed on top of us thick Taylor ham slice. I did not expect that! I thought it would be a thin slice of Taylor ham. I think it's the saltines of the ham, but I really like. And the bun absolutely wonderfully soft. This was the perfect find at the Philadelphia airport! I hope I can get back there to try the Philly cheesesteak next time. The restaurant was clean. The service was fast. There's nowhere to sit, but you can find somewhere else within the airport to sit and enjoy your meal. I give this a solid five stars for airport food. read more

Had an early flight out of PHL airport and decided to try Passyunk Steaks and I definitely made the right choice. A variety of sandwiches and other options I decided to go with the classic make your own breakfast sandwich where you choose your meat choice. I went with bacon and it came on a potato roll with egg and cheese. Though I love breakfast food I'm typically not hungry in the morning but today I was and I'm super happy I did. The sandwich was good I savored it. Had to stop and leave a review before I even finished it haha. If you're looking for a classic deli style breakfast sandwich that's not overly expensive this is definitely the place to go. The servers were friendly and quick. This may be my new airport go to in the morning read more

Passyunk Steaks - Bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I purposefully went through PHL to A) change it up and B) seek a local cheesesteak during my layover. I've tried airport Genos with little culinary impact (although I'd argue the brick and mortar doesn't churn out the best sandwiches either). I saw I'd be walking by Passyunk's on my way to the next gate, so I gave it a try. Order at one of two kiosks and anything you select will be given by the vendor (i.e., do not grab your beverage from the adjacent, self-service store front; they're different companies). The service was quick and easy, which is great for anyone rushing to their next flight. The resulting sandwich, however, was underwhelming. I absolutely agree and confirm what Yelper Alicia B. notes; Passyunk skimps on cheese whether you pay for extra or not. After ten years of regular travel, I know it's not impossible to find flavorful meals in an airport...but they're still rare. Often times it feels as if eateries don't try because they don't have to--you're in an enclosed environment with minimal choices and you often need sustenance. Sadly, I'd lump Passyunk's in that category. If you are interested in filling your belly, it'll do. If you're looking for a great cheesesteak, move on. read more

Passyunk Steaks - Outside - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I thought the chicken steaks were ok Not enough cheese. A decent amount of meat They were pretty busy but pushed through orders quickly. Not like any of the good places in the city, but for the airport, not bad. Expensive as with most airport food read more

This was probably the best cheesesteak we ate while in Philly! Get it with onions and provolone cheese. Yum!

Delicious! Recommended to me by more than one local, so I had to give it a try. Grab and go sort of place. Friendly staff, very fast service. read more

Not bad for an airport spot tbh. Somehow this place was ranked well above the other 2 places serving Philly Cheesesteaks, while I've not tried the others, this one was pretty tasty. Place is a simple set up with no cashier but a tablet for ordering. They unfortunately were out of sweet potato fries but the guys showed me how to file for a refund (processed in 2 days). About 10 min later I got my sandwich and it was piping hot. Good amount of meat and fillings, very tasty, only complaint would be it could've used more wiz! Anyways, no regrets here and wouldn't hesitate to grab another. read more

Passyunk Steaks - Philly all the way wit wiz. - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Just landed at Philadelphia International Airport and was craving a proper Philly cheesesteak. Found a spot in Terminal B and figured, come on, how bad could a cheesesteak in Philly be? Turns out... pretty bad. Compared to Famous Philly or Eddie's back in Arizona, this one doesn't even come close. The meat was dry, the cheese was barely there, and yet it was the priciest sandwich on the menu--"cheesesteak all the way." Maybe this is the best you can get at the airport, but it sure didn't hit the spot. read more

If you're deciding between this spot and the other cheesesteak place, this one is the clear winner. Their cheesesteak is absolutely loaded, packed with delicious, savory flavors, and the whiz is satisfying. The cheese fries are crispy and cheesy ... perfect with the sandwich, making it a complete meal. Plus, the combo prices are reasonable, offering great value compared to other spots at the airport. read more

Passyunk Steaks - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

By far the best cheesesteak at the airport and among the best in Philly. They use the Amorosa Bread filled with steak that's diced pretty fine on the grill and seasoned with seasoned salt. Get it all the way and you get mushrooms, onions and peppers. I prefer mine with provolone but the whiz is good too. It can take anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes to get your steak depending on how many people are ordering at once. So leave time if you have a flight to catch. The fries are good as well. Crinkle cut with seasoned salt. I get one every time I fly out of Philly. That can be once every few months or twice a week. If I'm really hungry I get a slice from the pizza side while I'm waiting. The steaks and the pizza is greasy. As it should be. That's where the flavor is. As for the ambiance. It's airport carry out only. And you order from a large touchscreen. If you hit entrees you get a sandwich fries and a small drink. The best deal if you're looking for at least two of those things. Or hit sandwiches if you're just looking for the sandwiche a la carte. read more

Passyunk Steaks - Cheesesteak all the way. - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I was working a job that was headquartered in Philly, so I had to fly here a few times a year. Well I was about to quit that job so I didn't know when I'd ever return to Philly, and I thought what better way to end this venture than to get a Philly cheesesteak. I had some time before boarding my flight so I took my hungry self to Passyunk Steaks. It was attached to a pizza place. It's more of a quick order and go type of joint, not a full on sit down restaurant. At the time they were only accepting kiosk orders. I ordered the most basic Philly cheesesteak with provolone cheese. There wasn't any interaction with the workers except the part when you pick up the order. There were no tables nearby so I took it to my gate and opened it up. It was pretty large in size qnd looked tasty. The issue is that it was as dry as the Sahara desert. I was confused if they even put cheese on it. Anyways I was hungry and despite the lack of cheese, it tasted good so I continued to eat it. But it was so dry that I had to take breaks every few minutes just to clear my throat LOL. Not sure what went wrong but it was a very underwhelming Philly cheesesteak experience in the city that's known for cheesesteaks. Note to self: Get a Philly cheesesteak anywhere but the airport! read more

Passyunk Steaks - The worst Philly cheesesteak I've ever had - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Got the cheesesteak, a spicy chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries. Great quality and quantity of food at a reasonable price for airport food. Cheesesteak was the best. Chicken sandwich sandwiches very very spicy but good. And sweet potato fries were OK - they were sweetened and had some kind of cinnamon spice, which is not my preference, but they were well cooked. read more

I was in a mood for a classic Philly cheesesteak since I was on an extended layover. Passyunk delivered. It was between terminal a and B if I recall correctly. You order from a large iPad looking screen. and you pay from the screen as well. Get your number and simply wait. I also got onion rings which were awesome and plentiful. For a fast food venue in an airport it was clean service was decent and I would go back for sure. The cheesesteak head delicious ribeye steak chopped up. there was not any beverage they served that I wanted so I turned around and there was another concessions with other drink options that sufficed. read more

Best steak you can get at the airport. The bread is just right - soft on the inside and soaks up the juices. Meat is kind of dry, but still more flavorful than the Geno's here. read more

Passyunk Steaks - Breakfast Steak - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I'm guessing this is new to the Philly Airport as there were no pictures or reviews yet, but it was here as a business. It's located right at the "entrance" to the B Terminal gates and shares a spot with a pizza place. You order via a tablet at the counter, then go to a self pay kiosk (there's one right behind you as you look at the establishment). The close one is card only but if you want to pay cash, there is a place to do that as well. I'm not a cheesesteak connoisseur by any means, but this one was pretty tasty. The steak was chopped and pretty moist. I went with Cheese Wiz just to see how it was and it worked well on this one, although it was a little saltier when I had a bite with a lot of wiz. It was a good size but the prices for $10 cheese steak and $11 for one with onions seemed excessive. Each topping I guess is $1 or something like that. I enjoyed it for sure! I still don't get the order at the food place and pay somewhere else method. It's designed as a marketplace and it's dumb for an airport. I can't imagine the confusion if it's crowded and the poor workers who have to answer questions on where to pay from almost everyone who orders. Just a terrible system, but not really the vendors' fault. All in all, it was a tasty sandwich and even though there's a Geno's at the Airport, the reviews of Geno's were terrible. I even stopped an American Airlines employee and asked him where to go and he said avoid Geno's. I'd go back for sure. I walked over from A Terminal, ordered, and ate at Vino Volo with some wine. Great combo. read more

Same as "I need to find the best cubano in Miami", the mission here is to find the best cheesesteak in Philly. If you're in town plenty of options but if you're at PHL airport and you're in for a treat.. this is the only place I recommend. The bread is soft and fresh, the steak amazing and the other ingredients second to none. I asked for cheesesteak all the way and the amount of flavor in that sandwich were insane. Little greasy but.. you live once.. yummy yummy BEST PLACE IN PHL AIRPORT read more

Waiting almost 10 minutes for a couple of steak subs in an airport seems like a long time. Especially when yours is the only order they're working on. At least they were made to order. We got the Passyunk a steak sub All the way. It was all the way dry. The fries weren't great. The lemonade was really good. You can self order and pay. Wish we'd waited and gone to a different spot. read more

Quick pickup available at the airport , we stopped here to pick up before our flight, and it worked perfectly fine for us.thw pizza place next to this had a long wait, but this was a breeze read more

Had a lay over in Philadelphia in terminal c to b and was hungry. Definitely wanted to try a Philly Cheesesteak in Philadelphia. You order thru an iPad then you go to another iPad to pay, as it's an open concept quick service restaurant connected to a cashless and human less shop. Once you pay the order number goes to the kitchen and they call your name when it is ready. Good size for $11, it comes with the steak and cheese. If you want to add other toppings it's an additional $.50 to $1 depending on what you add. I also had mushrooms and onions. Very juicy, didn't feel oily. Filling and great tasting. read more

Not impressed. Had the chicken cheesesteak all-the-way. All I tasted was salt. Salty salt, in fact. Also, I wanted to ask a question, but all the ordering was on a screen and there was no interacting with customers. read more

Geno's ran out of bread before 6 P.M. (?!), so we hustled over to Passyunk. The employees at Passyunk we're working hard, which I appreciate. Not bad! read more

Cheesesteaks all the way with whiz add American: Food was hot, fresh, and between Jim's and this, you won't go wrong either way. IMO: Better than Geno's, Pat's, even Delassandro's overrated beef water sandwiches This is a very formidable and solid cheesesteak for a joint at the airport and very flavorful. If this place is near you, and you want a cheesesteak, just go and don't hesitate The place itself was clean, the grill was clean, and the employees were great and the guys were very proactive about doing things the right way and not waiting around read more

Decent cheesesteak sandwich and sweet potato fries. Costs are high for what you get and the service was slow, but the sandwich was satisfying. read more

Genuinely loved my sandwich with whiz. A lil on the salty side, but satisfying as all hell. Fries had great flavor, but needed 1 or 2 more minutes in the fryer to be perfection. Guys at the register clowned me for asking about pepper relish (idk any better), but overall made me feel like I made the right choice in Terminal B. read more

Just got through tossing my genos cheesesteak in the garbage and walked down to Passyunk. Good move! Much more interested in delivering a quality meal and fortunately for me had the food to match the attitude. Bravo! Definitely what I was expecting in Philly! Thank you! read more

Had an excellent made-to-order breakfast burger (with egg and cheese on a potato roll) here, which was easily split between two of us. Even tasted great hours later, once we were finally ready to eat. Will definitely get this one again and skip a competitor's mediocre pastrami-egg-cheese on a bagel. Just allow enough time from ordering (about 10 minutes). read more

So mid. California has better cheesesteaks than this. Wouldn't recommend this "Philly" cheesesteak. But if you're drunk, it'll help you out a little. read more

I ordered two all the way with provolone, which is supposed to have provolone cheese and peppers. There was no provolone cheese or peppers only meat. Disappointing since I was told by airport staff that this place was better than Geno's. read more

Not good. They do not add condiments to your sandwich. Sub was soggy and lacked flavor.
