I love a good airport food stop This was perfect to grab a bag of pretzels for the flight and as travel gifts ! Who doesn't love a pretzel? The pretzels were fresh baked with a choice of dipping sauce . Service was ok. But nothing different from most food courts .

I literally just tried Auntie Annie's pretzel dog for the first time ever in life last Saturday and here I find myself again, having a pretzel dog, but from Philly Pretzel Factory. Honestly, I didn't find PPF's pretzel dogs to be as great as AA's, but they were pretty good. The pretzel itself was a little more harder in consistency than I would have wanted. I think maybe if they were a little fresher I might've liked them better. May have suffered the fate of being under the heat lamp too long. Nonetheless, I got two plain pretzel dogs with mustard and a delicious cherry slushy. The fries in the pic came from Tony Luke's btw.

Mh pretzel was hot and buttery. The perfect snack before a flight. Service was friendly and place looked very clean. Loved my pretzel, just wish I had gotten more!

Their pretzel's are usually worth the not egregious airport price This pretzel was hard and likely sitting waiting for purchase for too long My two cents, only buy product that is turning over frequently

Pretzel Dog
Colin J.

These pretzel nuggets were sad little lumps of dough, with the consistency of soggy cardboard and the flavor of stale salt and dawn dish detergent. And the pretzel dog? A depressing mess of rubbery bread wrapped around a lukewarm, flavorless mystery meat. It's a meal that makes you question where it all went wrong--for the restaurant, and for yourself.

And that's another $1.08

Once again I am puzzled by food offered inside airport terminals and the associated service. I ordered and paid for two Pretzel wrapped sausages. After my transaction went through, I asked where are the condiments (mustard, etc.) I was informed, that's an extra $1.08. OK so the logic for telling me this fact after I've paid is what? Answer: laziness or ignorance.

Bargain breakfast, esp. for an airport : bagel sandwich and coffee $6.50 !!

Forgot to mention this quick, easy, and TASTY spot (esp. for breakfast!!) that I "discovered" during a recent quick getaway to Philadelphia. Though just about EVERYTHING tastes better on a pretzel roll, I goofed and got a bagel, which was ok too... Great coffee, quick service, and (semi) reasonable prices (for airport food!!). FINE choice for a quick bite when passing through PHL!!!

I arrived to the Philadelphia airport last night. I was exhausted, frustrated, and to make matters worse, my hearing aids had died during my previous flight. In other words, I had to rely on pen & paper & lipreading. Nevertheless, the restaurant worker, Anthony Douglas worked with me to make sure he had my correct order, at that when I signed, Deaf, he knew how to communicate with me. You would be surprised by the amount of people at restaurants that won't even bother with me. Finally, the food was fresh and hot, not lukewarm.

I frequently visit Philly Pretzel Factory including their locations in Center City and their Bryn Mawr location. The one thing I like about them, is there consistency. They always manage to provide a solid pretzel. However, this location served pretzels that were severely below their average. I came in today and as warmly welcomed by the staff. I just ordered three soft pretzels and they came out nice and hot. However, upon biting into one, I was really disappointed. The pretzel lacked salt, was dry, hard and lacked flavor. Obviously, I'm not expecting a South Philly pretzel, but this pretzel was just bad. The only things I really liked was the fact that the staff was pretty nice and that the pretzels were rather inexpensive. Due to the fact this Philly Soft Pretzel factory is in the airport someone will probably thing Philly pretzels taste like this. Well, they don't. Altogether, I think Philly Soft Pretzel serves a solid Pretzel, but these ones were just not good.

You'll find it where the Terminal F foodcourt intersects with the main corridor. Many variations and permutations of the classic Philadelphia pretzel. Plus pretzel dogs and pretzel spicy dogs. Pretzel dogs are a personal guilty pleasure. And the thought of a pretzel spicy dog was impossible to resist. For less than four buckaroos, the Philly Pretzel Factory delivered a good sized super spicy dog lovingly wrapped in a warm pretzel blanket. This would have been a good deal anywhere, but considering it was an airport deal, it was an excellent deal.

Steak and Cheese stuffed pretzels
Crystal C.

I got the #3 combo (cheesesteak filled pretzels with a bottled drink). It ran me $7.50. The lady at the register could use a little pep. After ordering a combo she robotically asked me if I wanted a drink. When I said "Doesn't the combo mean it comes with one?" She just said yes and looked at me like she still needed confirmation that I did want the drink. The drinks were in a fridge that were self serve. Once I got over there I realized it was only minimally stocked. It's 9am in the morning and you're already out of everything? Seemed to me like there was just little effort towards customer service at this location. The pretzels were good, but not great. I liked the concept but could have used more filling or a dipping sauce.

My $1.50 snack prefect pretzel ps ask for one and this is what you get...you don't have to buy the 3

I got the egg tart on recommendation as well as a cheese pastry, pandan cake and red bean moon cake and everything was delicious! The cheese pastry had the softest exterior with a warm cheese filling that was savory but light at the same time. The moon cake was very rich and perfect for sharing! The pandan cake and egg tart were perfectly not-too-sweet, which is why I personally tend to gravitate towards Asian baked goods. It's a smaller but very cozy and homey interior with two tables for sitting down to enjoy your coffee and pastries. It's also cash only or Venmo, so keep that in mind if you never carry cash! I look forward to visiting again and trying more items!

But, since we were staying close to Philly's Chinatown, I figured I could stop in and get some goodies. I came very late in the day, so a lot of the breads I would've wanted were sold out. However, I did manage to snag some egg tarts and sponge cakes. Both were great. The egg tarts were crispy and custardy. Service was good - very friendly and patient as I perused.

Any true French bakery would not put the name "Napoleon" on a 2 small overdone pastry in the shape of a heart with small amount of cream in the middle. Nothing like the napoleon which my friend is and always has been a French classic. A three layered pastry fluffy with silky cream between each layer with a beautiful fondant icing which they called Mille - feuille. No it is not an Italian version it is French through and through. While as a French bakery you can make those cutesy heart pastry puffs please do not insult the french baker by calling it a napoleon. I unfortunately made the very foolish mistake of ordering this heart puff napoleon over the phone- thinking I would be getting , yes, you guessed it a napoleon.

We walked in and the set up was really nice with seating to the right, displays of the different desserts to the left. We were greeted by two really nice women. The cakes were to go so they were packaged nicely and placed in a cute bag. The cake- it was a few hours before we actually ate it but when I put the first forkful in my mouth, I could hear angels singing. It was so moist, literally melting in my mouth. The strawberries were sweet and the whipped topping was simply the best. Needless to say, I could have eaten my slice and my husband's. I am now on the hunt to find a location near where I live.

Dubai chocolate is super popular right now so I grabbed a Dubai chocolate mochi donut and a pistachio mochi donut for later. In my opinion, the Dubai chocolate donut was way better. It tasted just like the chocolate bar. Pistachio could've used a little more flavor. I tasted this one when I got home and it held up in 95 degree heat. Both were very soft and chewy. The employees at Paris Baguette are super helpful and nice, while also being efficient. Three people at the registers helped the line move quickly. While I love Paris Baguette, it isn't a coffee shop/bakery I would visit everyday because the prices are a little higher than average. For that once in a while craving, though, it's the perfect place to drop in and try a variety of items.

The tea itself was hot and tasty. Tried the tropical oolong. A nice pot to share, and you are given a small sugar bowl as well if needed. Good flavor and stayed hot with the burner stand. Cup, saucer, and spoon all showing signs of heavy wear. The food and service was not as nice and far more average than expected. Was deciding between salmon or turkey sandwich, ended up ordering the salmon. However, the Turkey club sandwich was what I got and unfortunately nobody came back to check on us either way. It was still okay not a huge issue, though the sandwich itself was a bit of a letdown. Average quality bread and lunch meat, and the salad was browning. Felt like it's a bit downhill than expected.

They did a good job of bringing all the teas in a timely fashion. We tried the Rose Lover tea, Matcha Green Tea, and the Prince Passion Fruit Tea. I started by really liking the rose lover tea. It was a milky tea that had a rosy taste to it. After a while; however, I felt like it was too sweet. For our main apps we had twister fries which were pretty basic. We also had the fried shrimp lollipops which were very tasty. The place offered us a collection of tea sandwiches and scones and macarons. Overall, my guests didn't leave hungry. We also ordered a mango Mille crepe cake. It was cutely decorated. They put pieces of mango on top of it. The cake was a bit too sweet for my liking, however.
