In Short – This glass-enclosed sandwich hot spot is filled with hungry patrons looking for a big sandwich for a not-so-big price. Place your order, grab a table and take in the walls of fame: There's Robert Redford, Jerry Blavat with Nancy Sinatra and actor, boxer and singer-songwriter Tony Luke Jr., as well as a wall of wrestlers. Roasted pork, cheese steaks, roast beef, chicken cutlets and even the veggie sandwich all come on fresh bread.

Watch the servers at Tony Lukes Sports Bar

by gregcandera

Visited on 6/01/08 and found the food and service measured up to the reputation earned. We each had the famous roast pork and seasoned fries.

Watch the servers: We left a five dollar tip for a twenty-four dollor bill ,cash. We elected to put the meal itself on our credit card. Upon checking our card balance the next morning we found the server had charged us an additional twenty percent on the recipt she submitted. Our reciept clearly shows the total for the meal only. We expressly informed her we had left a cash tip before we left.

  • Pros: Great food and atmosphere
  • Cons: Watch the servers don't double dip on tips if you pay by credit card and leave a cash tip

Roast Pork Italian - Incredible

by Jerome99RIP

Tony Luke's is a Philly tradition. If you're looking for a cheesesteak or a chicken parm sub, this is the place to go before a Flyers, Phillies or Sixers game. And now they're even open on Sundays before Eagles games! But if you're looking for the absolute best roast pork sandwich on the planet, then Tony Luke's is the place to go. The roast pork Italian comes with either broccoli rabe or spinach rabe and SHARP provolone cheese. Without hesitation I can honestly say this is the single best sandwich I've ever tasted. The pork has a delicious spice, the rolls are cooked on-site, the broccoli rabe has a nice zing to it and the cheese is melted heaven. Honestly, if you're a Philly guy, you know this place. If you're not and happen to be in Philly, do yourself a favor and head to Tony Luke's. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

PS: They also serve breakfast! The scrapple, egg and cheese on a hoagie roll is insane. If I still lived in Philly, I'd weigh 300 pounds from eating here every day - LOL!

  • Pros: Everything on the menu is delicious. Not hyperbole either.
  • Cons: Standing in a mile long line in the heart of the summer isn't fun but it's worth it,
