Cafes & Carryouts

You won’t hear a “Yo!,” and the official policy permits mayo—blasphemy for a Philadelphian. But if you have a hankering for a cheesesteak or real-deal hoagie, this College Park fast-food stop is as good as you’ll find without driving up I-95.

When school’s in session, the place swarms with University of Maryland students catching a grease buzz on their study breaks. The key to the cheesesteaks ($6.19) isn’t the grilled shavings of steak or the Cheez Whiz—it’s the authentic Amoroso rolls, the same ones you’ll find at Geno’s in Philly.
