About Philippe The Original

Philippe The Original is an old-school, always busy spot worth the visit. The restaurant offers classic food with a focus on their famous dip sandwiches, such as double dipped beef and pastrami. Some find the sandwiches plain, but the taste is still enjoyable. Customers can try the baked apple for dessert. Most visitors come for the sandwiches, but the coffee counter is a hidden gem, serving strong, hot coffee for just 50 cents for a refill. The restaurant is not particularly kid-friendly, but it has a cozy, historic vibe with sawdust floors that add to its charm. Expect a bit of a wait, but parking is available nearby, and credit cards are accepted. Prices are fair, and the lemonade and sweet tea are affordable. Customers are advised to add cheese and ask for their sandwich "wet" to enhance the flavor. A side of jus and potato salad, along with a beer or Arnold Palmer, makes for a relaxing meal, bringing a taste of simpler times.
