I will be updating this review to reflect a burger I had here that was incredible but this review alone is based on the cheesesteak. The cheesesteak here comes standard with American Cheese, Onions, and Peter Luger sauce. I am normally not a fan of any sauces on my cheesesteak but I truly enjoy Luger sauce so I decided to give this a try in the way they suggested it. The woman who took the order was friendly. This is a gas station/food locale with beer taps inside and cans for sale as well. A few tables, and a lot of takeout business.
So to start I will say that the roll they use for this cheesesteak is very good for a steak. I'm not sure where they source them from but I enjoyed that a lot. The steak seems to just be a frozen chip steak which is alright, many places use a product like that. This is a personal preference thing, but I believe this steak was chopped up a bit too much, and there was American just laying on the bun un-melted which was upsetting as well.
I actually found the Luger sauce to be good on this, and I even added pickles to it which I never do. I know it's a big valley thing to do sauce/pickles so maybe the Luger sauce and pickles went well together for that reason...but I enjoyed that. That's really it though. I wanted to love this steak, and it certainly wasn't bad, but I think I'll probably just be sticking to the burgers here from now on.

Read morePop's is just off the first exit into PA on I-78 from NJ, or the last exit in PA going to NJ. There is a large sign off the highway so you can't miss it. I've gone to Pop's a number of times for six packs, or cold cuts, but never to get pre-made food before.
We got two sandwiches - two Sloppy Tom's, one on whole wheat bread and the other on a Hoagie Roll. They put coleslaw and Russian dressing on it making them very sloppy. We also had some of their house-made macaroni salad. While we waited, there is a small bar and about a dozen small tables. We sat at the bar and tried a few of the beers they have on tap.
The turkey was very fresh as was both the lettuce and tomato. The bread was good. The roll was not a crusty as I'd like but that was probably due to the Russian dressing. While we waited we watched them make other sandwiches, cold and hot. I've heard great things about their burgers. Watching them make them made me wonder if I had made the right choice. Maybe I did and maybe I didn't. But, I did really enjoy my sandwich. And, having had their macaroni salad before, I knew it to be probably the best I've had anywhere. They did not disappoint.
This place is great. Do yourself a favor if you are in the area. Go there. If you need anything else, they are also a gas station and have a convenience store.
Next time I am in the area I will try...
Read moreI've been getting breakfast here for a couple weekends now and I gotta say. The best in the area for sure. Best pricing. Portions are dope. AMAZING properly crisped bacon. And not just 2 slices like cmon.. $4-6 dollars a pound for bacon at the store. and figure most breakfast joints give you two slices of that thin bacon?? right so what's that cost them? 20 cents a piece? so you are paying an extra $1.50 for 2 slices of bacon. now don't get me wrong. that's on par with the standard if you really think of it. assuming the standard the 30% of the menu price is food cost, then that's really not a big deal. Except at Pop's you get much more and thicker cut? how do you they do it? I can't tell you but I say take advantage while you can.
also, the lunch food is pretty good too. hash browns are the big ones. well cooked. They're nice. they prepare the food pretty quickly.
The fries price is kind of odd in my opinion given everything else but I give them the world's biggest pass on that because of the quality of the food and service. and that I don't care for fries too...
