Penn's Corner Restaurant

This is my breakfast spot when I go into the office! It's located in the Suburban SEPTA train station so I walk (about 2 minutes) here after getting off my train.

I always order the same thing, omelet with beef bacon but sometimes I'll order pancakes, french toast, grits or add a coffee. Nonetheless everything I've ordered has been great and the prices are pretty reasonable. Even more the customer service is excellent and they are always so warm and welcoming!

Highly recommend!

The food is pretty good. The seating could use an upgrade. The staff are cool and polite. Restroom on site.

Saw the fattest rat imaginable, inside the restaurant , when walking by. Just no. Underground dining in the city next to a subway is not advised.

Food is good. Steaks and hot sausages be on point. I just wish it was in a better spot

I love getting lunch here, the food always tastes good and the front staff are great.

Review: Penn's Corner Restaurant (PC)
Penn's Corner Restaurant, or "PC," is truly a hidden gem located underground near Suburban Station. You might miss it if you're not looking carefully, but once you find it, you’ll realize you’ve stumbled upon something special. This cozy spot combines great food, welcoming staff, and an unbeatable family vibe that keeps people coming back for more. I've been a loyal customer for over seven years, and it’s safe to say PC feels more like a home than just a restaurant.
The food here is consistently fantastic with Andy, "M," and the new young brother behind the scenes cooking up delicious dishes every day. The meals are always perfectly presented, and every bite is worth savoring. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or sitting down to enjoy a beer and some comfort food, you won’t be disappointed.
What makes this place truly stand out, though, are the people. Andy and his wife Lulu, the phenomenal owners, appreciate every customer that walks through their doors. Lulu runs the front of the store with love and kindness, while Kitty, the wonderful lady at the register, greets each person with an amazing spirit. Kitty and Lulu make sure everyone feels respected and cared for when they enter, adding to the warm, welcoming atmosphere.
For me, it’s more than just grabbing a meal—it’s a place where I can relax. I often get some food, a cold beer, and open up a book to enjoy the comfortable setting. It's rare to find such a spot in center city where you can truly unwind while being treated like family.
If you’re ever near Suburban Station and want to escape the hustle and bustle for a bit, I highly recommend stopping by Penn's Corner. It’s a true gem that offers great food, wonderful people, and a welcoming vibe that’s hard to beat.

Another review from Restaurantji praises the extensive menu and the clean environment, despite a minor hiccup with a preference for how ketchup is served with fries​​.

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. The service is always amazing and the food is delicious.I used to get a tuna sandwich for lunch from here everyday and now I get breakfast here every morning. They're the only place that gets my tea with milk order correctly and they asked questions to make sure they made it how I'd asked. I love this place.

Amount of food is not worth the cost compared to other spots around here. Got a breakfast sandwich, they used 1 egg and 1 piece of meat…disrespectful.
