## Story

“This is not your ordinary chicken sandwich! Our new Bacon Ranch Chicken Cheesesteak is next level deliciousness, made using the quality ingredients we’re known for, including Amoroso Rolls that we bring in from the east coast, because any other bread wouldn’t be authentic Philly!” said Bob Levey, founder of Philly’s Best.

“We’ll stack up our famous Chicken Cheesesteak against any other chicken sandwich out there, and since we love keeping things fresh and fun, we upped the ante by adding crisp bacon and creamy ranch to an already beloved recipe. The taste explosion is unreal and we’re confident guests are going to love this epic flavor combination!”

The Philly’s Best story begins in the 1980s when Levey was stationed in San Diego, California while serving in the Navy. Far from home and finding no place to satisfy his cheesesteak cravings, the dream of bringing his favorite Philly food to SoCal was born. Along with his Philly-native wife, Andrea, the couple opened their first Philly’s Best Cheesesteak and Hoagie Shop in 1992.

Since then, the brand has expanded throughout California and has long been hailed by Philadelphia transplants as the most authentic Philly Cheesesteak in the state. Further proving that Philly’s Best continues to deliver amazing eats, they were just named a 2021 “Best Sandwich in Orange County” by the Orange County Register, and recognized as “Best Sandwich” by the readers of OC Weekly for three consecutive years. Other notable accolades include “Best Cheesesteak” by LA Magazine and “Favorite Sandwich Shop” by the readers of Inland Valley Daily Bulletin.

Levey continued, “We’ve proudly served Real Deal Philly to our California guests for nearly 30 years with our authentic Philly Cheesesteaks rivaling what you’d find at the best sandwich shops in Philly. The addition of bacon and ranch to our popular Chicken Cheesesteak gives fans a chance to try a new take on a Philly’s Best favorite, and it does not disappoint!”

The new Bacon Ranch Chicken Cheesesteak is available through April 30, 2021 at all Philly’s Best locations.
