Out of the countless dozens of cheese steak places in Philly I chose these due to their popularity and strange proximate favor each other . Plus , I'm a tourist and these are most popular . What is your favorite Cheese Steak place in Philadelphia?
TheDailyWoo tony lukes
TheDailyWoo When I was in St. Cloud recently I noticed they close to Philly cheesesteak it was pretty depressing man they had some good cheesesteak there
TheDailyWoo Jim's on South St. Is the best......right down the street from where Larry was born.
Jim's on south. hope to see you around phoenixville for blob fest tomarrow.
Next time you need to try a Philly Taco......
Adam, you should have the same cheese option from both places for the best comparison
Agreed - I thought the same thing
I was wondering was the steak sliced the same because Genos looked like actual slices as where Pats were more a chunks of sliced steak.
You would think lol
Dean Cory, I was thinking the same thing. You must be a chemistry teacher. Ha Ha
The grease is the best part- philly born and raised
Nah, JOHN'S ROAST PORK on Snyder Ave in South Philly is the best!! PATS and GENOS are tourist spots.
m3trooper Steve’s is the best and everyone knows it
m3trooper Hey Nick ru alright? you look a little bit on edge.
I drive from Dover, DE just to get a pork sammich with greens at John's. The steak is the best too
Unforgiven One I live in NYC now, but drive down to John's once a month for a Roast Pork to eat on a picnic table there, and a cheesesteak to bring back up with me 😁
BOOM! On point!
Thank you for taking me on another great adventure !!!
10:27 "Can you spare some change?" She saw you flip that coin, so she was testing you.
I wonder if he gave her some spare change. LOL!!!
that was katie i think corbin sent her
We call her “the hobbit” because she has hairy feet. She comes by our firehouse all the time to try and bathe in the sink. She is an icon in the Passyunk(pash-yunk)area
the smooth transition to the next scene 😂
That was awesome!!!! Thanks Adam my favorite of all time..... this brings me back, haven’t been in a while ,so thanks dude your the best brother. Used to go to pats with my grandfather his favorite and genos with my dad his favorite. Both are gone now so I’m laughing and crying at the same time!!!!! Love ya dude.
Reminds me of the Goldberg's episode where Barry and murray try to find the best cheesesteak
O man! Cool to see you there. I was able to visit the Rocky statue and run up the steps before, Best and great feeling to do that! but wasn’t able to stop but Geno’s or Pats! I’m glad you got to enjoy it. That was a blast man
Great video! From the ROCKY intro, to the Food Fun. Thanks for sharing this. Thanks for supplying us with future self road side destinations! Take care man. Safe travels.
You should’ve ridden your bike down those stairs.
kub71raim 😂
yea and broke his neck
We've seen how that goes 😂 🤦♂️
Omg you all make me hungry with all this talk about Philly Cheese steaks....
You are wise to always bring an eating buddy on these adventures. And I love the trash can art!
Next food rivalry: Come to Detroit for the Coney Dog Challenge. The Lafayette and American Coney Dog establishments have been next door to each other for years!
You know your in philly when you see shoes hanging from the phone lines and post office lable with sharpie marker graffitti
Did the Rocky steps, geno's & Pat's taste, the art museum, Penn museum, and mutter museum with girlfriends. Glad you got to experience it Adam!
You should've stuck with the same kind of cheese to give a fair comparison. In any case, wow! They both looked super good.... and now, at 8:30 am, I want one! LOL
Great video Adam!!! You are one of the best CZcamsrs!!
Jim’s on South St in Philly!!!
Endlessmike584 yup
From moment you panned over to the basketball court next to Geno's, all I could hear in my head was... 🎶In West Philadelphia, born and raised...🎶
Just sayin'.
Thank you Adam. Love your voiogs.
Ahh! The famous cheese steak places of Philly. They are both good. Great to see a concert and hit one of them afterward. I do like Tony Luke’s pork with sharp provolone and greens. The pork is served from a juicy vat. Geeze, I’m getting hungry now. Good vlog!
Dalessandro's got me sold Pat and Geno's don't stand a chance. At 10:28 he totally ignored the lady asking for spare change hahahahaha
That’s not true, I was there. He gave her change off camera
We love visiting Philadelphia. Reading Market is so much fun. Riding a "Duck" is a great way to see Philadelphia by land and water. We also took a train from Philadelphia and explored NYC for a day. We enjoy adventures.
In west Philidelphia born and raised, watching 80s movies is how I spent most of my days. When a couple of guys who were up to no good,ate all our cheesesteaks in the neighborhood!😂lol Later that night his mom got scared, Genos closed its doors as well as Pats did theirs, Adam hopped in an delorean uber which I thought was rare,he traveled to 1985 now hes Hill Valleys town mayor.
lots of people are saying Tony Lukes, they're more for the roasted pork. Pats & Genos are definitely for tourists or the purists. I personally stay on Passyunk but instead of 9th st. I go to 27th st where you'll find Phillips, voted the best cheese steak in Philly for a few years now. hope you enjoyed your time in Philly. my wife and I moved away from there about a year ago and it was nice to see you running up the steps and chillin in S.Philly. much love to you Adam.
Pat's, you have to ask for the Heart Attack. It's all 3 cheeses. DA BOMB!
The ambiance shots from Pat's to Geno's was awesome.
The bread at Geno's looked far superior. Neither of them had very much steak on them and I couldn't see any fried onions on them. I have had alot of cheesesteaks and my preference are the ones with the steak very thin cut and chipped/chopped. When the steak is done this way you can load it on the sandwich and still have no problem biting into it. My favorite is from Filetti's in Baltimore. There is so much steak you sometimes have to eat some with a fork before picking up the roll.
Look what popped up on my feed... Hello from Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park Mr Woo 🏞️🌄🐻
Thanks for posting. Hubby, Philly native, enjoyed watching!!
Great vlog! Looked delicious! The 2nd Cheesesteak looked better to me, because I’m a fan of provolone. You know It’s good when it has a little grease. 👍🙂
Adam trying to get into the CZcams food review Mafia, what no one likes watching middle aged men hanging out at theme parks anymore?
Awesome vlog Adam! Was great seeing you live last night! Love the live feeds.
That quote from Rocky Balboa "It's about how hard you can GET HIT and keep moving forward" is probably my all-time favorite quote. I actually printed it and had it framed in my office. Oh, and did you see James Rolfe's "Rocky Jumped a Park Bench" video? It was pretty good. :D
It's a tremendous quote. Very inspirational. I love that quote so much.
I agree one of the best quotes ever!
That's cool
Hey Adam next time you are in Chicago try this ATW eats challenge with Chicago’s Italian Beef sandwich. Many places claim to have the best sandwich. If you have never had one get ready to be quite impressed!
Adam, the run up the Rocky Steps is a must on my bucket list as well as visiting the Larry Fine piece!! Great place Philly!!
They both look good. I could tell the bread from the first one was harder than the second one.
Readings Market and Franklin Mint- both so very worth the visit.
Franklin Mint isn't there anymore. Trivia: I used to work for the Franklin Mint.
MegaPodTastic wow! Really?
Yeah. I haven't driven by in a while as I no longer live around there, but last I saw the old Franklin Mint building it was overgrown with weeds and mostly abandoned.
It has been closed for over 10 years. It was a really cool place to visit. The ground is still for sale if you want to build some townhomes.
running late to work...then this pops up in my notifications....oh well...whats another 25 mins late to work. please join you......shall me?
Rocky 1&2 are definitely in my top 10 favorite movies. Your last live stream in Hollywood. You kept getting comments asking to do the Rocky filming locations, and now your there. Those sandwiches made me so hungry! Thank you for the great video!!!
Philly Cheesestakes are the best! 30 mins from my house haha. Cool vid!
You can tell Crazy Joe is exprerienced in eating cheesesteak by the way he leans in. That way you don't get grease down the front of you.
You related to Joe Conklin, the comedian?
Note to self: Watch TDW after you've eaten something. Does not do well to work an 8 hr shift on an empty stomach then watch cheesesteaks (which are my favorite). Love u Adam!!
I live in South jersey and work in South Philly. These two shops are definately the most famous for tourists, but the best cheesesteaks are from the jersey side of the river!
Please start uploading the livestreams.
Live streams are very occasional and always deleted afterwards .
@Woo - Ya, and I seem to always be at work and unable to catch them. Which is why it'd be pretty swell of you to keep them up for a couple days.
Please don't delete them. Let those of us in other time zones enjoy them too. :-(
Adam nice video for those of us who have not been to Pat's or Geno's. The livestreams are very popular and interesting, due to the spontaneity of them though some people do not get to see them. You should post them for a day or so then delete them. Keep up the good work!
TheDailyWoo but I always miss the live streams cos of time difference, I'm always sleeping *moan moan whinge whinge* 😢
Wish I still lived in South Philly, I miss all the food!
I always thought that secretly the same family owned both Pat's and Geno's and faked the rivalry. That would be a brilliant marketing scheme!
Stay away from the b-ball courts! Rough crowd there, you might get beat up!
Raoul Duke what's a fresh prince?
Raoul Duke You are just a breath of sunshine aren't you?
Been too long since I've visited Philly, gotta go back!!
Always a good time
You and Krazy joe two living legends
We just passed through Philly about 2 weeks ago and stopped at Geno's!!
2 cheesesteaks in one day here in Philly, and you will be on the couch sleep! Trust me!
Why aren't u ever going to hersey park the amish country or sesame place its right next to where u are?????
Spoiler alert: In tomorrow's Daily Woo Adam and I meet up again in Amish Country but this time I'm dressed as an Amish man and we raise a barn together. Shhhhh. Don't tell!
Thanks for making me hungry early in the morning. Super excited for upcoming videos, thanks for sharing!!
Awesome video its making me hungry for a cheesesteak sandwich thanks for vlogging it have a great day adam.🙂
AHHH WELCOME TO MY CITY ADAM!!!
That was cute, now I"m hungry ! Thanks guys!
This is an old video but I had to revisit it due to the latest Philly vid. I cracked up laughing at the zoom and terror of the sound of someone possibly getting tazed. I haven't been but it's certainly a bucket list to hit the Rocky steps and get some cheesesteaks at both establishments. Maybe this is the year.
Glad you are on the road again
Adam ate that cheese steak like a straight carnivore lol
Adam, you're making me hungry. YUM
Nothing like a good cheese steak
I still think of the time you stopped for a haircut on that first trip in large Marge hauling across the country, Lord those were the days.
Should have went to Tony Luke’s. Pats and Geno’s are tourist traps.
Tony Luke's is the definition of tourist. It's outside the ECW arena (Wrestling/Boxing Arena), and in airports and sh*t. Pat's and especially Jim's on South is way better.
Papa Luke’s with tomatoes & creamcheese. Their hoagies are the b e s t.
PHILLY!!!!
Love the food reviews adam!
I got my picture taken with the Rocky statue and ran ALL the way up the steps, video at the top doesn't show how high up that is! Celebrated with a cheese steak at Pat's
This reminds me of the Coney Dog rivalry in downtown Detroit. American Coney vs Lafayette Coney...the businesses are right next door to each other. But a lot of people too say they are just for the tourists. My grandpa favored George's Coney. Like Philly is known for Cheese Steak, we have the Coney....everywhere lol. Anthony Bourdain went to the 93 yr old Dulys Coney & left saying this, "Every time I visit Detroit, somebody asks me if I've had a good Coney yet. Apparently, I never had a great one. I finally got one. I understand now."
Oh you making me hungry again they look good and delicious thanks Adam the woo another awesome blog
The best cheesesteak ever was from Cisco's Bar in suburban Flourtown, PA. They used the same flat top grill for over 50 years. Sadly, they're gone now.
I had to go to Philly for Business years ago, so I stopped somewhere and had a Cheese Steak ...they made there's with caramelized onions and Bell Peppers and Provolone...they mixed everything on the grill and the cheese melted and held everything together all juicy and hot and stuffed into a hard crusted roll that was all soft inside ...I'm pretty sure that was better than both of these combined.
Be cool to see Sylvester Stallone walking around there, that'd be pretty freakin' awesome!
Great vid Adam nice job 👍👍
Now I want a cheesesteak.😎Live in Philly, gonna get one!
I prefer Geno's. The presentation & taste is better imho.
Me too
I was born and raised in southern NJ, and was spoiled for places to go for cheese and pizzasteaks. I live in Vermont now, and the first time I asked for a pizzasteak up here, I had to talk them through it. 🙃 Ah, well.
As a Philly native, I can't condone the tourist cheesesteaks. Go to Jim's or get a hot roast pork sandwich out at Reading Terminal Market.
On a scale of 1 to 10 how good is each place. Thanks.
Kristin P as a Philly Native also, Delasandros is good also, and on a late night the Cheese Steak the size of our arm in North Philly on Kensington & Lehigh Ave
Thanks for making my stomach growl. Rock on
Neither! Should have gone to Tony Luke’s.
I'll remember that one for next time
TheDailyWoo their roast pork with broccoli rabe is amazing as well! Safe travels and enjoy the tri-state area!
I also like Joe's Steaks. I went there after my filming at the Nut Hut Saloon
Termo their roast pork is most definitely the star of the menu.
Hey Big Guy! Watch'a doing in Philly? That cheese steak looks good enough to eat! Great Rocky moment! "Don't ear a misteak!" I see what they did there! The celebrity wall would be more impressive with an Adam the Woo photo!
The best way to enjoy Philly steaks always have to have cheese whiz!! It makes the world dandy
This vid was very well made and fun to watch but...I had to go to the grocery store immediately and purchase cheese steak ingredients...
My husband is from Philadelphia he has taken me to all of those places and we ate at pats.
I have heard of these two Philly Cheesesteak spots from the Travel Channel but I have never had an authentic cheesesteak from Philly, thanks for the video!
Haven’t been to Philly for about 10 years, I always went to Tony Luke’s, better than both Pat’s and Geno’s. Great video Adam, thank you for all you do.
God damn Pats must pay well. The guy handing the sandwich to Adam had a Submariner on...
Adam I went to Philly a few months ago and went to the Rocky statue and the stairs! A lot to see there!
I just saw there's a fence around the statue, can you not go up to it at all anymore?
Cactus Sensai Doug I went up to it when I was there.
MoviemaniaNick excellent I was there a few years ago. Was hoping I still could next time I'm there.
Born and raised in this neck of the woods, and eating at both places I'd say it's a toss up, loved seeing Philadelphia I used to play in that park, enjoy your videos, thanks Adam.
Dang, I was just home and I missed you! Big fan of the channel and I'm glad to see you in Philly!!!
Thank for sharing lunch...I imagined my Ramen noodles turned into a cheese steak sammich... Nom Nom Nom...Safe travels! Have a great weekend, Adam...
I'm obsessed with you and your channel. I can't believe I just now found your channel. 🤠🤣🤠🤣🤠🤣🤠🤣
Thanks Adam, safe travels.
Natural ambiance...
“Can you spare some change?”
You were at 2nd & south 2 blocks from the best steaks in philly. JIMS Steaks are amongst the best. Genos & Pats are tourists traps. Tony Luke's, John's Roast Pork, DeNicks some other great places.
Oh The Bread!!!! I love Pat’s First, then a Geno’s to Go!!! The Bread there makes every place you go amazing!!!!! Tony Luc’s would be 3rd best place, but you can’t go wrong anywhere in town. CJ thnx MR Woo!
Pats and Genos are just tourist spots, I recommend Steve's on Bustleton in NE Philly. I'm from NE Philly and can definitely say they make amazing cheesesteaks.
If I went up to Philadelphia I would probably buy a sandwich from both shops like you did. Just curious did either place offer any dessert items?
I know what Im eating tomorrow!...love my phillycheese steaks...
Hi Adam! There are so many other places in Philly where you can get a great cheesesteak. Steve's Prince if Steaks on Roosevelt Blvd. near Woodhaven Rd., Wit or Witout Cheesesteaks on Bustleton and Red Lion, Stoli's Steaks on Bustleton and Byberry, etc. So many!! Man, your video made me want a cheesesteak!! And I like my cheesesteak with White American Cheese, fried onions, oregano, salt, pepper, ketchup, and mayo!! Now that's a cheesesteak!! :)
I need to check this off my list as well. Awesome video Adam.
