Barry’s Steaks

took son to get a few steak and cheese subs. very good. great old counter services. worth it

Absolutely LOVE Barry’s steaks! My husband and I have been living in Roxborough for about a year, and after reading the other review decided to give it a whirl. Their steaks are always delicious; juicy, fresh, and incredibly filling… lol. The owners are absolutely lovely as well!

this is my favorite steak place in Manayunk/​Roxborough. Fast delivery if you want it, great service inside, and great food to boot. I strongly recommend their french fries.

Local Roxborough/​Manayunk favorite. Personally I tend to prefer the burgers but the steaks are also right up and together with Chubby’s and Dalessandro’s they form a trio that pretty much blows away anything coming out of South Philly. Heavily recommended!

I ordered a cheesesteak w f/​o and the mild wings. Cheesesteak was very good and the wings were crispy and cheap. Prices are very reasonable and the service was excellent. I will be ordering more food from Barry’s.

3.5 stars, rounded up, due to the option of either cheddar or cream cheese filling with the jalapeño poppers, very quick delivery, solid pricing, and quality food.
The Quatro Formaggio Steak is definitely one of the best I’ve had in Philly. Huge, too!
Veggie Melt was very generous, even for the mini size… and it cracks me up that you can add meat to it :*-)
The poppers seemed hand rolled. Though the cheddar filling was WAY too salty. I’d definitely try cream cheese next time.
But, the point being, I’m looking forward to next time!

This is my favorite cheesesteak place! The staff are super friendly, and they have one delivery guy who is a true national treasure. Delivery is always hot and fast. The restaurant itself is also very old school Rox retro. They have some really yummy speciality cheesesteaks, including the alpine (swiss cheese and gravy) and the ringer (golden bbq, cheddar jack, onion ring). Original cheesesteak is also very good. Unlike some cheesesteak places (cough anywhere near south street cough) this place is about quality food, not hype. Check out Barry’s, you will not be disappointed.

Barry’s is simply the best. I order from here all the time and have never been disappointed. Everyone who works here is extremely friendly and they are QUICK. Thank you for such consistently awesome service Barry’s!

This place is a gem. As far as cheese steaks go — the best I’ve had in Philly. They deliver to my house — always on time and always delicious. Delivery guy is always super chill. Only reason it’s not 5 star is because its just a cheese steak joint. 4 is the ceiling for me. No knock on Barry’s though. Good job.

When I recently moved to Roxborough I had no idea how lucky I was to end up on the same block as the best cheesesteak place in the area.
I quickly found out that while Lennies is the go to place for cold hoagies, Barry’s is the go to place when you want to turn the temperature up and have a hot one.
The cheesesteak selection is very good, I really fell in love with their cheesesteak with gravy, it gets four Yums, yum yum yum yum
The service there is great, always friendly, nice community atmosphere which is challenging bring next to a bar. I always applaud great customer service and a round of applause is well deserved for Barry’s.
Stop in and grab a bite, it’s well worth it.

Barry’s has the best cheesesteaks in manayunk/​roxborough area. My boyfriend eats at this place easily 2 – 3 times a week and even though I find that excessive I have to agree it’s delicious. I love that the mini is only $ 5 but still large enough that I can barely finish it. You can get pick up or delivery and they have a good variety of toppings to choose from. We always get the onion rings too because they are some of the best I’ve had.

Went here a couple weeks ago and ate in. I usually go to delassandros. I got the mini cheesesteak and it was really good. I like that they have smaller sized cheesesteaks because the regular ones are usually way too big for me. Service was what you would expect at a place like this. Our waiter wasn’t particularly personable but he did his job. The prices were very reasonable. I did not realize they delivered so I will definitely be trying that next time.

Today, I tried the Chicken Ringer mini and it was delicious! If I were to get it again, I would ask for a little less bbq sauce. But other than that it was great!

Serving size is huge! Food is great! I will order from here again. Great burger and amazing fries! Delivery was quick too!

This place is the best Cheesesteak in the Manayunk/​Roxborough area. It is hidden away, so it might be a little hard to find, but it is well worth the trip. I ordered from here using Grub Hub a few times and I came to visit once.
Two of my favorites here are the Ringer Cheesesteak and the Western Grilled Chicken. I normally get it with light BBQ sauce and it is just enough for me. It is absolutely delicious. I try to split the Ringer with my friend so I can eat a Grilled Chicken too — if I end up eating the whole Ringer, it is a little too much for me to handle.
They make larger fries, so I don’t order them because I prefer smaller fries… but that just leaves me more room for the real food.
Unfortunately the one time I came to visit, their «internet» was down, so I had to pay with cash instead of my credit card. So that was a bit annoying, but some other Cheesesteak places only accept cash anyways.
I would have given 4.5 stars, but I decided to round up because it has been my favorite Cheesesteak place here in Philly

Had a mushroom cheesesteak with provolone cheese and I have to say it was tasty. I will order from them again. I’m super happy they deliver because that was the deciding factor when deciding to try a cheesesteak place in this area. I was not disappointed.

Everything was perfect. Out of the 3 spots I’ve tried in the Roxborough area for cheesesteaks, Barry’s is the best! The service was also the friendliest I’ve experienced anywhere in Philly. I went with American, fried onions and some of the yummy hot pepper relish they had on the counter. The bread was fresh and held it all together nicely. Also got a side of fries and they were amazing. I really can’t fathom another place ever offering a better overall experience. Plenty of seating and parking, too! Forget Dalessandros and Chubbys, I will be a regular here.

After living in the area for quite sometime, it was an appropriate hour to check out this spot. Dedicated solely to cheesesteaks I ended up going with their most ordered one according to GrubHub the larger ringer: which features Colby jack cheese, two to three onion rings and BBQ sauce. I got it with a side of steak fries which happened to steal the show. The steak was great but fell short of being the best in the area with so many legacy shops. Might go back and try another one of their creative designs.

I really don’t even consider going anywhere else for a cheesesteak. I have, on more than one occasion, eaten here for lunch and dinner.
I regret nothing.

Hidden away in a quiet neighborhood in Roxborough, Barry’s serves a delicious gem of a Philly cheesesteak. I normally go to D’alessandros which is nearby. I love their cheesesteaks too but they don’t have fries and today I was in the mood for fries with my sandwich.
I recently tried another well-​known steaks place called Tony Luke’s, but I did not like their cheesesteak much at all because the meat was not thinly sliced and chopped like a good cheesesteak should be.
So, having heard that the owner of Barry’s used to work at D’allessandro’s, I said why not, let me give this place a try.
The cheesesteak meat was juicy with melted american cheese mixed in and mushrooms and fried onions. One of the best cheesesteaks I’ve had in the Philly area and I have tried a lot of them. The fries were ok, nothing special but at least they had fries. Oh, and the place was not crowded at all with plenty of seating at the counter or at tables. Will definitely be going there again soon!
