About By George!

The business is registered at 1136 Arch St, Philadelphia, PA 19107; use this page to check its hours, phone number and Google rating before you make the trip.

Pizza places in the United States run from a counter with two stools and a stack of boxes to a full sit-down pizzeria with a bar, and most neighborhood shops do all three things at once: dine-in, takeout and delivery. Ordering by phone is still common and often faster than an app, and many independents charge less when you call direct because there is no platform fee. Sizes are usually listed in inches (a small around 10", a large 14", an extra-large 16" or more), and a large feeds two to three adults. Slices are sold from a display case at New York-style counters and reheated to order; whole pies take 15-25 minutes at a busy shop. Most spots take cards and mobile pay, though a few older pizzerias remain cash-only, so check the door or the listing before you order.

The business lists hours on 6 days of the week. On most of those days it is open 8 am–6 pm. Note that it does not open on Sunday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. You can reach By George! at (215) 829-9391; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions. More information is available on its website, bygeorgepa.com.

Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Traffic in Philadelphia peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

This was the best cheesesteak ive had in years. The Cooper sharp cheese and steak tasted amazing, so much flavor. Thank you for not being stingy with the meat, excellent quality πŸ‘ŒπŸΎ

Something has changed… By George was my favorite secret for the last decade. I’m not sure what happened but the cheesesteak has changed. Lacking salt and flavor and barely any cheese. Honestly tasted like pot roast on day old bread. What a disappointment. Too many other great spots to take the risk again at $21 a sandwich. Shame!

The owner was extremely rude and unprofessional. I ordered cheese fries expecting Wiz fries, but instead received fries covered with melted American cheese. When I brought the issue to their attention, the owner immediately became defensive and stated, β€œThat’s what you asked for. Why should I lose money?” rather than trying to resolve the situation. There was no apology, no attempt to correct the order, and no effort to provide any level of customer service. As a business owner, how you treat customers matters just as much as the food you serve, and unfortunately my experience was terrible. I left feeling disrespected and frustrated. Based on how this situation was handled, I will not be returning and cannot recommend this establishment to others. I also left with the impression that I was treated differently because I am Black. While I cannot know the owner’s intentions, the dismissive and hostile manner in which I was treated made me feel unwelcome and undervalued as a customer.

Got me some buffalo chicken bacon loaded fries to take back to my hotel. Very generous portion and loads of flavor. I'm not usually a big fan of crinkle cuts but they made them right and had all the right amounts of flavor. I'd be back often but alas, I am only a visitor. Thank you for this delicious item!

While in Philadelphia for an event, I was told to check out By George! If I wanted a great and authentic Philly cheesesteak. I waded through a mob of people in the market to get there but it was very very worth the effort. The service was quick and friendly, and the food was absolutely incredible. I had to dig deep to finish the large portion because it tasted so good! I highly recommend you check them out if you’re going to be in Philadelphia for any reason!
