Joe's Steaks + Soda Shop sits on the corner of Frankford and Girard, built around the Philly cheesesteak in multiple forms: the classic steak and whiz, a chicken version, a vegan option, and a cheesesteak burger, alongside the Chazarama sandwich. The rest of the menu runs through hot dogs, grilled cheese, and hand-cut fries (including an old bay version), backed by a soda shop lineup of milkshakes and fountain drinks.
The spot operates as a diner-style comfort food stop, with dine-in, takeout, delivery, and catering all part of regular operation. Its late-night hours and location near other nightlife draw a crowd that spills in after concerts and events, and regulars keep coming back for the fries and shakes as much as the steaks.
