I get a cheesesteak hoagie of late - I order it with mayo, and with
extra cheese, onions (they're always fried onions in Philly, you don't
have to specify), and sweet peppers. The street it's on is near the
Fort Washington interchange of the PA Turnpike - it's called Commerce
Drive then it changes name to Pinetown and it changes name again in a
few blocks as you head towards Dresher and it's called Broad Street, I
believe.

There's a Best Western that's a walk away, which is how I found it, but
now I usually stay about a 5 min car ride away but still go there. Very
nice folks - although I'm from out of the area, they seem to have some
sort of computer system that uses caller ID and they actually remember
what I ordered the last time, which is great for me.

I can also recommend Trevose Pizza (in, duh, Trevose, PA) and Brother's
Pizza in Langhorne, PA - those are all run by people from the same
family and are about 5-10 minutes by car from each other - I lived
between the two and also really liked their calzones.

But, as I said, I think _most_ Philly area pizza places make a good
cheesesteak sandwich. My wife is partial to having pepperoni pizza
steaks - pepperoni, marina sauce, and mozarella - what could be bad
about those three things on a soft roll with Philly style steak?
