Center City Pretzel Co

Okay so not only do they make the best pretzels in town (was tragic they were closed for so long), but I have also learned they make bachelorette pretzels (see pic). I think it's about $35 for 2 dozen pretzels, not including the big one for the bride. They were a big hit during a recent bach in Philly. Call ahead to order and as always, prepare to stand in line (it moves quickly). The only thing that compares to immediately breaking into your paper bag of warm pretzels may be chowing down on your water ice before it melts on your way home. If John's and CCPCo were open at the same time, I would 10000% be going to both in one trip.

I received five of these gems Friday that were shipped on Wednesday. They arrived w coarse salt and packets of Gulden's spicy brown mustard. The vacuum packaging sealed in fine flavor and all of the quintessential Philly soft & chewy experience. TY Sandy for this sumptuous BD present.

They're back!Last year I was tasked with putting together a best of Philly list for a wedding. One of my deepest regrets was not being able to add CC Pretzels to that list. A little over an 18 month delay, but I must say the wait was worth it.EnvironmentThe hours haven't changed upon reopening and you can still pickup pretzels starting at 6am. When I arrived at 5:50am there were already 4 or so people in line(in the rain). Upon entering, you'll quickly notice the store can hold no more than 3-4 people at a time and the list of items to purchase extends to pretzels, cheese and mustard. Every time I've ever visited there's always a collection of regulars who liven up the otherwise small setting.FoodAs noted above, the pretzels are the star of the show! You can find pretzels anywhere in Philly yet somehow the ones offered at CC Pretzels are kinder on the teeth and the wallet for the quality received. Soft and modestly flavorful.If someone were to ever task me with putting together another "Wonders of Philly" list ,Center City Pretzels would make the cut. Happy eating!

They have a 100 year old, 50 feet oven. The pretzels taste proper here. Eat it with the nacho cheese.

Best pretzels in the universe soft chewy and perfect. I could eat them for breakfast lunch and dinner.

Serving up some of the best Philadelphia has to offer! Center City Pretzel Co. Is the truth, people! I've been coming here for 5 years now & they always satisfy that doughy bread & salt craving. They're very fairly priced- .85 cents a pop! Arrive a little early because they're only open 6AM-11AM.

This is THE place for pretzels in Philly. Will come here every time I visit. Soft, perfect amount of salt.

Can't get any better than these original. Authentic Philadelphia pretzel ...only one you need to try

Friendly and one of the best pretzels we've ever had! They close at 11am so gotta be early.

Best pretzels in Philly! They travel well if you can restrain from eating them all up on a long car ride.
