Cheesesteaks near Ofallon, MO

“I’ve been a Penn Station customer for nearly 20 years, frequenting locations in South County, South City, Wentzville, Creve Coeur all over the region. It had been a couple of years since my last visit, but I recently received a buy one, get one free coupon in the mail and decided to go back because their prices have gotten too high for a family of four. Without a coupon, the cost for my family would have been around $75 for sandwiches and fries, which is just too expensive right now.

Ordering Experience:
I first ordered on Friday, March 14, using their new website. Unfortunately, the site wasn’t very user-friendly, especially on mobile. I accidentally ordered a cold sandwich instead of my usual hot one—likely due to the confusing navigation. I gave them another chance the following Wednesday, using another BOGO coupon, but ran into more issues. Unlike the old system, you can’t add more than one type of cheese to your sandwich, and the customization options are limited. The ordering experience feels restrictive and frustrating.

Food Quality:
While I understand that things change over time—menus, recipes, and even portion sizes—the sandwich I received didn’t match the Penn Station I remember. The bread texture seemed different, the sandwiches felt smaller, and even ordering extra meat was more of a hassle than before. If the goal of sending out coupons is to bring customers back, the product should resemble what they remember. Otherwise, it’s wasted marketing dollars and a missed opportunity to retain loyal customers.

Customer Service:
One thing that hasn’t changed is the fantastic staff. The team at this location is courteous, prompt, and friendly, making the experience as pleasant as possible. I wish every business had employees as professional and positive as they do!

Final Thoughts:
While the service was excellent, the food quality and online ordering system left a lot to be desired. If Penn Station wants to win back customers, they need to make sure the product matches the expectations that long-time customers have. Otherwise, people won’t feel a reason to return.

⭐ – Great staff, but disappointing food quality and website functionality, especially given the high prices.“

“I love Charley’s! Just wish they had one not in the mall.“

“I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS CHARLEYS!!!! the food is good. but the management and the service in the Charleys cheesesteak in St Augustine Florida in the Walmart is horrible! I was overcharged by more than $4 and their signs all over the place quoting the correct price. the manager was nowhere to be found so the cashier called her and they still refused to adjust my charge. there is no way to get in touch with corporate the phone number that I did find sounded like it was in China. she said that there was no corporate phone number. I think it's very serious matter when I restaurant cannot be contacted about one of their stores and their managers.“
