Lou's Sandwich Shop

Listen, forget the city just come here for a great cheesesteak! Listen, as soon as I walked up I know the vibe was right. When I walked in the music was vibing the staff was cool. This place has been around many years. They open early but close at 4pm so be mindful of that. I literally would drive out of my way to come back next time we visiting Philly. This visit I got the chicken Philly cheese steak. Chicken is shredded thin like the regular and he adds butter to keep it from drying out. The bread was delicious, the meat was delicious, the cheese was delicious. Only thing I would say is stay away from the mushrooms. They are just mushrooms from a can/jar so they took away from the sandwich for me- I took them out. Seriously amazing sandwich. Highly recommend!

I've had this place on my to-do lost for awhile, I finally made it here last Thursday only to find a woman carrying in a giant 4ft trump sign and an older whiye guy happily holding the door open. Needless to say, I kept driving. The sign is now in the window. This was surprising considering this neighborhood is primarily minorities and low income. This business clearly doesn't give a hoot about his community, I will not be going here and you probably shouldn't either.

Their food is delicious!! Whether it is a breakfast omelette, French toast, etc, it's all delicious! And lunch, you just won't believe the Zeps, they are the BEST!!Love the atmosphere!!, It's a classic old time diner feeling. Makes me remember those special times my parents would take us out to a lunch counter type restaurant. The staff is AWESOME, they have a walking encyclopedia, Gloria, who knows everyone, everything and is always ready for a good hard laugh.They aren't open all week, but when they are, take advantage of great food and a good laugh or two!

Best steak sandwiches!!!Love the Zeps!Breakfast quick and delicious!Service quick and friendly !

It's thankful Thursday!! I wanna give a shout out to my new lunchtime local sandwich shop... Lou's!! I strolled down Main Street to a magical sandwich shop stopped in time. Grab a seat at the counter, look up at the menu and then chat up the friendly server. These are tried and true recipes that have been developed over decades. I have to confess I have never ordered a Zep in my life!

Located in Norristown Lou's was established in 1941.... And apparently it has not changed!!!Tons of counter seating, booths along the left hand wall but they were built when folks were smaller so if have someone girth you may not feel comfortable.Very friendly service!!! Specializes in "zeps" sandwiches served on a round roll.We had the other specialty a garlic bread cheesesteak which did not disappoint!!! Tasty and delicious Onion rings were slightly overdone but tasty.Hand dipped milkshakes old school !!!!!Italian hoagie was very good Only criticism was that the food did not come out all together Onion rings Italian hoagie Milkshake Then 10 minutes later the cheesesteaksRegardless I'm hooked I'll return !!!

Came here for a quick lunch ( take out only) with a friend based on the hype . Naturally we ordered 2 cheese steaks with fries . So , here's the scoop : a very good option for this coveted delicacy. Steak , cheese , mushrooms and onions with a soft bun . The fries were ok but not great . Service was very accommodating . Overall , a solid choice but there are many great options as well .

This is one of my favorite local places. Old time feel and everything I've ever ordered is delicious!

You won't get a better Zep anywhere!! We have been going to Lou's for decades. Great service from great people. Don't forget to grab some fries!

The best zeps! Great friendly service! Love the nostalgia. Walking through the door is going back in time.
