More information on Philippe (The Original)

Since 1918, this place has been serving the best French-dipped sandwiches in the world. That seems logical because it was the original Philippe who claims to have invented the juicy concoction nearly 100 years ago. The prices haven't changed that much since—a roast beef, pork, turkey, ham or leg of lamb sandwich satiate your palate and suit your pocket! Want a cup of coffee? Got a dime? No kidding.Takeaway available.Disabled Access.
