Frank with UFC’s McKenzie Pavacich from earlier this month!
These tables have seen some people. Presidents, rock stars, film & TV icons & nearly a century of Philly history. Every day’s a little different around here & we never quite know who’s stopping by 9th & Passyunk 👑

If you’ve ordered at this window sometime in the last three decades, there’s a good chance Loriann was on the other side of it. Taking orders, keeping things moving & prepping a whole lotta cheesesteaks! One of our longest-running crew members & a big part of this place

Frankie knows a thing or two about the neighborhood. A little history lesson from the corner Pat’s has called home since 1930. 9th & Passyunk has changed over the years. We’re still right here 👑

This summer, we teamed up with two Philly talents to put their own spin on The Original.
Lifelong Philadelphian, artist & collector Perry Shall brought his style to Pat’s for America’s 250th. Then Ps & Qs, the South Street shop founded by fellow South Philly natives, designed a shirt that brought a little of both of us together.
Two Philly perspectives. Two limited-run T-shirts.
One original Pat’s! A few are still up for grabs on our the merch shop at patskingofsteaks.com
And we’re not done yet. One more release is coming very soon!

A shirt in the stands. A post on Instagram. A new friend at Pat’s. On August 1, we caught Bruce rocking his Pat’s shirt at the Phils game. We posted it, his son reached out & today Bruce made the drive from Lancaster to South Philly to hang with us. Good people, good times. 96 years later, that’s what sets Pat’s apart 👑💪🏼

What people say
The Original Pat's King of Steaks is a legendary steakhouse located on E Passyunk Avenue in Philadelphia. Since 1930, they have been the originators of the Philly Steak & Cheese Steak, and their reputation for serving up delicious and authentic cheesesteaks has only grown over the years. Their commitment to quality is evident in every bite, and it's no wonder why they have a line around their shop every weekend.
One of the things that sets The Original Pat's King of Steaks apart from other cheesesteak joints is their dedication to preserving tradition. They recently brought back the original chicken cutlet parm from the 1950s, which is hand-breaded and served at their shop on 33 and Ridge Ave. This attention to detail is what makes them stand out as one of the best places to get a cheesesteak in Philly.
Their commitment to excellence has not gone unnoticed either. Jeff Brown, a well-known figure in Philadelphia, recently visited The Original Pat's King of Steaks and praised them for all they do. And it's not just locals who love this place - people come from all over just to try their famous cheesesteaks.
In short, if you're looking for an authentic Philly cheesesteak experience, look no further than The Original Pat's King of Steaks. With 90 years of experience under their belt, they truly are the pioneers and best of all time when it comes to this iconic sandwich.
