The food was all delicious and Steve had lots of interesting historical information about the areas we walked thru as well as the interesting family-owned businesses we ate at.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely amazing experience at Fat Phill’s! The fitout looks incredible, the food was bursting with flavor, and the service was friendly and efficient. Everything was spot on — 10/10! Definitely recommend to anyone looking for great burgers and good vibes.
Really enjoyed my visit to Fat Phill’s! The food was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you’d want from a proper comfort meal. I got the loaded fries and they were amazing. The portion size was just right too. The place has a great vibe, cool street-style decor with graffiti art on the walls and a relaxed atmosphere that makes it easy to enjoy your food. Staff were friendly and service was quick. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a tasty, no-fuss meal in a chill spot.
I got the Nashville burger, cheese fries and the cheese sauce. My server was Momo, what a fantastic guy! We had an amazing conversation about health, wellness and relationships. On to the meal: the chips were slightly over seasoned, but not unbearable. The burger was simply amazing, there wasn’t any grease leftover. The burger was crunchy and done impeccably. The meat melted completely off the bone. Within the burger the sauce was great and it paired really well with the coleslaw. By the way the coleslaw wasn’t saucy so I never had to worry about it falling off. 10/10 would buy again
Burgers were good though the smashed beef burger was a bit dry. The chips were ok. The layered fries had a lot of burger meat and not a lot of steak. The self-service kiosks are handy. Fair amount of seating downstairs. Pretty misleading amount of Google reviews which are mostly from one-time reviewers giving 5 stars. Dodgy bais.
Fantastic tour - lots of interesting information and the food was amazing. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone in Philadelphia.
Absolutely loved this place! The smash burgers were delicious—crispy edges, juicy patties, and full of flavor. The music and overall vibe created a really enjoyable atmosphere. Staff were super friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Definitely a spot I’d come back to!
Adam was amazing! He presented Philly in such a fun way. Whether you’re staying for a few days or just come for a day trip, this tour is for you! You’ll learn about the city, and other spots you can visit during your stay! Highly recommend!
The knowledge and friendliness of Andy the tour guide
Fantastic experience and would absolutely recommend! Food included tomato pie, warm pretzel, a Philly, chocolate chip cookie, and doughnut. Karen was so knowledgable about all our stops and the city as a whole, and she was very personable. 10/10
