The crowd skews local, and the vibe is relaxed with bar food and cocktails. Hours run daily from noon until 2:00 am, though these are unconfirmed. For another nearby option with a different scene, check out Woody's .

“The best cheesesteak”

I stopped by after noticing they advertised a $4 cheesesteak special during afternoon hours. Among all the cheesesteaks I have tried, this one was easily the best: rich and a little gooey, yet not too heavy. The side Caesar salad complemented it perfectly.
