Overview & Highlights

Momma Pat's A Little Taste of Philly Grille is an absolute gem nestled in the heart of Duncannon, PA, specializing in authentic South Philly-style hoagies and cheesesteaks that pack a flavorful punch. For lovers of hearty sandwiches brimming with generous portions of premium meats and fresh toppings, this standout hoagie restaurant delivers an unapologetically bold and satisfying experience.

From the moment you bite into one of Momma Pat’s hot hoagies, like the iconic South Philly Cheesesteak loaded with chopped steak, grilled onions, and oozing Cheese Whiz, you'll understand why this spot has such a devoted following. Each sub is served on a classic South Philly hoagie roll—a hard, crusty bread that perfectly holds all the savory goodness inside. Though some diners note the roll's firmness, it only accentuates the juicy and tender meats piled high within, creating a satisfying contrast in texture that true sandwich aficionados will appreciate.

Other popular menu highlights include the Chicken Cheesesteak, bursting with chopped chicken and rich Cheese Whiz; the Burger selections, ranging from classic Cheeseburgers to Mushroom and Swiss burgers, all pressed fresh and topped with melty American cheese; and hoagies like the Smokey Mountain Chicken, which features bacon, pepper jack cheese, and smoky BBQ sauce packed into a Kaiser roll, delivering a smoky-sweet surprise with each bite. For those seeking lighter fare, Momma Pat's Loaded Salad combines fresh tomatoes, onions, hard-boiled eggs, and a delicious medley of ham, turkey, and cheese—perfectly paired with Ranch or Italian dressing.

The dining atmosphere at Momma Pat’s is casual and vibrant, often buzzing with locals and visitors alike. It’s a popular stop for those passing through on work routes or a Friday night spot where the warmth of the kitchen and hardworking staff keep the energy alive despite the inevitable wait—an hour or so sometimes, as shared by satisfied customers who swear it’s worth every minute.

Reviews across the board shine with enthusiasm. Marcus Myers praises the Reuben sandwich for its generous meat portions and irresistible kraut; Amanda Crist raves about the colossal House Monster Club, an epic hoagie that’s so big it requires a buzzball (a nod to its formidable size). Valued testimonials also mention the superb onion rings accompanied by a secret special sauce that transforms every bite into a flavor adventure. Even those who aren’t fans of the hard hoagie rolls praise the quality of ingredients and the perfect balance of tastes, a testament to Momma Pat’s commitment to delivering value without compromise.

With its perfect blend of authentic Philly flavors, generous serving sizes, and a neighborhood feel that invites you back again and again, Momma Pat's A Little Taste of Philly Grille is not just a meal—it’s a celebration of culinary passion and hearty satisfaction. Whether you're craving a cheesesteak packed to the brim or a loaded salad to fuel your day, this local favorite makes every bite unforgettable.

I've been here a couple times on my work routes when I'm in the area. I will go out of my way to stop here. My favorite is the reuben. For $10 they slap the meat on it like they don't even care if they run out. Delicious kraut and the sauce makes the whole thing pop. I have also gotten a cheesesteak to take back for a friend and they loved it. They are definitely not scared to protein pack your sandwich here! 10/10 no question.

Here’s my honest review. My bills was just under 30.00 for two subs. I wasn’t a fan of the bread and I wish they had a soft roll to offer but the amount of meat in those subs made up for the price. The taste of every ingredient blended perfectly. Sadly the rolls are not for me but I’d highly recommend this place to everyone . Keep in mind it’s a hard roll but the value you get it spot on.

Best cheesesteaks around! Soooooo good! Friday nights they get busy and it's usually an hour wait for your food so keep that in mind when calling in to order! But definitely worth it ! And the cheesesteaks and subs are HUGE! My husband and I can share one!

So just got their House Monster Club!! It’s Ginormous!!! Way bigger than I can bite in a good way!! Buzzball for scale… Also got the Ruben..but with coleslaw (soo good!) And the onion rings with the best special sauce!! (Also soo good!) Best place to eat in this area hands down!! 10/10

Moma Pat’s was absolutely slammed when we got there — about a 50-minute wait — but *totally* worth it. The place was buzzing, the staff was hustling, and the food lived up to the hype. The cheesesteak was outstanding, easily one of the best I’ve had. If you’re anywhere near Duncannon, make the stop. You won’t be disappointed!

Ordered out. I tried the Spicy Italian, wife the Beef Brisket and son the Reuben. All were amazing. The Italian ranks up there with my all time favorite. Update Sept 4, 2025. In honor of the Eagles opening game, we went for the Philly Cheese steaks. Outstanding! They really load these up with meat.

Best club sandwich! Perfect, down to the presentation which was in a nifty box packed nicely inside next to the chips and pickle. Also got a buffalo chicken hoagie and I basically inhaled it, it was delicious! Great food, great service, great prices. Nice little hidden gem. Don’t sleep on this place.
