Great Local Spot  4 Star Rating - Very good

A good quality steak, good service, and a cold beer while you wait. Better than your average philly neighborhood cheesesteak joint, but without the line of the tourist traps. A quality choice if you're in the area and want a low key place with decent food over a beer with a friend.

Slam Dunk Cheese Steaks 5 Star Rating - World class

The cheesesteaks and sides at Chubby's are really good and the condiment bar in the sit down section definitely adds to it.
It's my first choice when I am running around Philadelphia.

Pros: Great food, lots of it
Cons: Not really sure what you mean

TOP FIVE IN PHILLY 5 Star Rating - World class

I know I'm repeating what many others have said here so I'll make it brief.

Chubby's is a great place for an AUTHENTIC Philly Cheese Steak.

I drive a limo and I bring lots of my clients here ( as long as they don't order it with Wiz, that's a joke played on tourist )

Do it right. Provolone or American, ONLY ( unless your a politician then Swiss is ok because everybody already knows your a jacka%*&#% )

Most comments here are pretty much same as mine, except one ( chzsteak ) Where did that illiterate country bumpkin come from? Consider the source I guess.

Anyway if you want a good meal ( they have lots of beers from around the world too ) at a fair price then this is your place.

Pros: Quick Service, Good Value
Cons: No long lines at 3am

BEST CHEESESTEAKS!!! 5 Star Rating - World class

My friend took me to chubby's when was younger the quality of their food from taste to product quality was perfection.I soon found myself returning very often..I find myself in Iraq missing Chubby's as much as i miss my family. Highly recomended. True to the philadelphia lifestyle. If you dont go you are missing out.

Pros: too many to list
Cons: there isnt a chubby's in iraq

A Frosty Mug and a Chicken Cheese Steak 4 Star Rating - Very good

Look, I eat steaks with such frequency there is a good chance I won't live to see 40. I want to give Chubbys a big thumbs up, especially for their delectable chicken cheesesteak. The onions are particularly noteworthy. Bread and meat are tops in quality. And where else can you get the coldest beer in town served in a frosty mug while you wait for your sandwich? One of Philly's best that's worth the trip on any serious steak eating tour.

Pros: COLD beer while you wait, lively crowd, quick service, open on Sunday unlike Dals.
Cons: none
