It's located inside the TA travel center and I recommend stopping in this one as the vibe is nice, the employees are friendly. The truck shop's staff know their stuff. The homie with the long hair replaced my tires very quickly. And you have some unique food options when it comes to TA's in general. One being this Charley's Cheesesteaks.
The food: It's nothing earth shattering, but you get a pretty large portion for a somewhat fair price (the oldschool cheesesteak large is around 14$). The quality of the food, again is not mind blowing, but it is very satisfying and I have no complaints about my meal.
You aren't going to drive off thinking "that was the best cheesesteak I've ever eaten", but you will be happy you stopped here I think. Also it's way more likely you'll find parking here than at the nearby Pilot. The lot is just bigger, and that Pilot has too many reserved spots. If you go to the Pilot you can park on the street though.
I ordered the OldSchool Cheesesteak with provolone instead of cheese sauce and adding a small amount of mayo. It comes with sauteed onions and extra steak. But they have a pretty big menu with a good amout of variation like chicken cheesesteak, philly cheesesteak, fries with various toppings, chicken teriyaki cheesesteak... So maybe they have something that's a lot better and i just haven't tried it. But to my taste, the OldSchool is certainly worth it and a safe choice for cheesesteak enjoyers.
Oh and they have a small seating area of three tables with six seats. You might not expect that from a place like this. But its nice to have the option to sit down and eat or just to take a load off while waiting for the food. Its not like Subway or Jersey Mike's where they make it in front of you. It's an 'order and wait' place. And it was pretty quick service. I was waiting maybe 6 minutes for the sub. They do a...
Read moreI started working near this place and on break I went here cause I was told they were pretty good. Well nope 🙅♀️ First I spoke loudly cause before me I noticed the customer in front of me and the cashier was talking loudly due to the noise background. When it was my turn I spoke loudly and the cashier didn't hear me so as I ordered she didn't hear me but as I said my order without checking my receipt or noticing when the older guy called my order out instead of my number he said 6 piece bbq w/ hash browns I told him that wasn't correct it was supposed to be hot, The guy proceeds with an attitude and slap the food down open the box and wiped off the wings... How I know cause when the cashier told him the wings was in the fridge the first time he didn't go in there a second time and again me not paying attention. I waited for my order the second time and it took 3 mins to get my order and the first time it took 12 mins or so. When I left and sat down to eat the first wings tasted like bbq sauce with hot sauce on it so I pour my own hot sauce onnthe chicken when I got to the second wings it was chewy I didn't eat that but went to the next wing and still the same with the others, I just ate my tots with hot sauce and when I went to drink the fruit punch drink it tasted like cardboard. Never again will I eat from here nor ate from here since that day. Upon looking on the website my wings looked nothing how the pic looked and the picture looked like...
Read moreI have never been to a philly Cheesesteak place that didn't know how to make a philly Cheesesteak until now... I asked for a regular philly Cheesesteak and the cashier proceeded to ask me what I want on it... I said I want what normally comes on a philly Cheesesteak. He then said so you want everything on it and I said yes. He proceeds to ask if I want mayo, ketchup, pickles onions peppers and all the fixings and I said No! I said I want a philly Cheesesteak the way it's supposed to be, Steak & cheese grilled peppers and onions with mayo...I said how can you not know this and work here I said it's a philly Cheesesteak made the same way a PHILLY CHEESESTEAK is made. His response was "I've never had one so I don't know what's on it" So I had to explain what was on a philly Cheesesteak and if it is made any other way its not a philly Cheesesteak. This place operates more like a subway they should either train there employees to understand the staple sandwich of their business or change the name of their business. Frustrating experience to say...
