About Passyunk Avenue (Fitzrovia)
Passyunk Avenue is an American restaurant on Cleveland Street in Fitzrovia, running a Philadelphia-inspired menu built around cheesesteaks and regional dishes. Hoagies are served on rolls compared to Amoroso rolls, matching the Philadelphia-style sandwiches the kitchen centers on. Cheesesteaks arrive large and filling, and the menu extends to buffalo wings, mozzarella sticks, and sweet potato fries. American beers are poured on tap and by the bottle. Baseball and other American sports play throughout the dining room, with a Philadelphia sports theme carried across the space. Deep fried Oreos round out the dessert options.

Customer Review Summary
The Philly cheesesteak is the clear draw here, with reviewers repeatedly calling it authentic, filling, and close to the real thing from Philadelphia, though one diner found it light on cheese and a touch salty and another noted some chewy meat. Close behind, the wings win praise as the best in the city from one reviewer, while others rate them merely okay, and the sweet potato fries, mozzarella sticks, and a homemade-sauce burger also draw specific compliments. The hoagie and rolls are singled out by one reviewer as tasting just like an Amoroso from home. Service is repeatedly described as friendly and fast, with the bartender named by several as a highlight of the visit. The American sports atmosphere and beer selection come up often as part of the appeal. One reviewer warns the deep fried Oreos were bad and best avoided, and another suggests booking ahead for busier evenings.

“Best burger ever. All sauces are home made. They are to die for. Excellent service and the food was brilliant. I love a burger but, it's on another level. I wasn't expecting the sauces and bits they use to be great and I nearly removed some. Don't! It works! The lady is so lovely and when we ordered too much, she suggested smaller things. Don't be put off by the street it's on- it looks quiet but, it's just a lovely venue with great authentic tables. Beer, yep. Food, yep. Sauces, yep!”

“The nicest slice of Philly in London. Exceptional service, delicious food and ice cold beer cannot be beaten. Kit rules the bar like a conductor driving the orchestra. Bliss.”

“Absolutely love this place! The food, drinks and vibes are incredible. Staff are fantastic as well, Kit is a wizard of hospitality and always makes us feel so welcome (also offers free lessons on the rules of baseball!) the rest of the staff are great here too. Without a doubt best chicken wings in the city AND you haven’t really lived until you’ve had a cheese steak from here. Always leave feeling happy, date nights, afternoon drink, evening thrives what ever the occasion. Passyunk is the answer Go Phillies Woo!”
