The originator of the Philly cheesesteak since 1930. Founded by Pat Olivieri, this South Philly institution serves one of the most iconic sandwiches in American food history. Cash only, outdoor ordering, open 24/7. Wit or witout — the only real question.

★★★★★The Whiz Wit is non-negotiable. Pat's has been doing it right since 1930. Line moves fast, worth every minute.
James Rivera
★★★★★Moved from NYC and was told Philly food doesn't compare. I was wrong. Pat's changed my life.
Lisa Park
★★★★★Solid cheesesteak but honestly some of the neighborhood spots give you just as good for less of the tourist markup. Still worth doing at least once.
🍽️ Response from owner
Hey, fair point! We're a landmark so you're always going to get some tourist pricing. But we think the experience and history is part of what you're paying for. Come back at 2am on a Friday — different vibe entirely 😄
Tom Walsh
★★★★★History on a hoagie roll. This corner is Philadelphia.
Sarah Johnson
★★★★★You have to try both Pat's and Geno's to understand the debate. Personally team Pat's but only by a hair.
David Kim
★★★★★Brought my whole family from Jersey for this. Unanimous decision: worth the drive every single time.
Amy Chen
★★★★★Great cheesesteak, iconic location. Gets crowded on weekends but the line moves fast. Cash only so plan accordingly.
Marcus Thompson
★★★★★South Philly institution. The fact that it's open 24/7 has saved me more times than I can count. 2am cheesesteak after the Eagles game? Perfect.
Jessica Martinez
★★★★★The GOAT. Been coming here since I was a kid and it never changes — which is exactly the point. Order wit wiz, don't ask questions, enjoy the best cheesesteak of your life.
