But if you are going to ride all that way for cheesesteaks, you might as well go the extra distance to John's Roast Pork at Snyder and Wacaccoe near Delaware Ave. Get there early for the seeded rolls. Not only are the cheesestaeks excellent, the roast pork with spinach and sharp provolone is to die for. And the outdoor seating next to the chemical plant provides the perfect ambiance. The famous Tony Luke's is about a mile away on Oregon Ave. I hear the steak with cream cheese and tomatoes is very good.
