Great steaks that's worth the drive! 7/16/2007

We are from NYC and just came back from Philly after a short weekend getaway. I've been to Dalenssandro's couple years ago and wanted to take my boyfriend there to taste how a good cheesesteak is supposed to be like. Sadly (but good) that Dalenssandro's was closed for vacation and we went across the street to Chubby's. To our surprise, this place is comparable to Dalenssandro's and way better than Geno's. Both my boyfriend and I love trying little local places instead of the big, fancy, well-known tourist traps. The steaks were huge, tender and juicy, and they served beer in an icy cold mug! We shared a cheesesteak with green peppers & onions, and a mug of Yuengling lager and it came out only $10 with tax and tips! Although it's a bit of a drive from the downtown area but it's definitely worth it! Pros: Cheap and tasty food! Plenty of parking space Cons: A little far from downtown attractions more

Best Cheesesteak in a Down Home environment 11/20/2006

Sure the places downtown are famous, but who likes to be treated like cattle when you are getitng your steak. Chubby's booths make for a comfy place to enjoy a perfect steak. They mix their steak and cheese together into a perfectly goey cheesesteak symphony. complete the meal with an order of regular or curly fries and sitback and enjoy the ride. Pros: Cheesesteak, Hours, Beers, hot pepper bar, Cons: only one location more

Life's About Choices 11/12/2006

At Chubby's make sure that you make the right choice. For me that right choice is their Chicken Cheesesteak with a Birch Beer or if you're in the mood--a 40. Also, choose the right booth to sit at with your group and bring quarters for the juke box. Pros: Good juke box, delicious steaks, great hours Cons: Slow grill service, distance from Center City more

Chubby's rules 6/29/2004

There are a lot of places that get the the hype in Philly - you know them - the places you go at 3AM wasted... anything tastes good in that condition at that hour. Chubby's is the classic cheese steak... simple and tasty. It's not the Taj, but it is down home Roxborough. If your in Manayunk or Rox - go there you'll love it. more
