Campo's gets the Phillies cheesesteak concession

The announcement won't be made till next week, but the new cheesesteak vendor in Ashburn Alley at Citizens Bank Park will be Campo's Deli, the family-run shop in Old City with an outpost in the Wachovia Center. The deal is for one year. The menu will include cheesesteaks, chicken cheesesteaks and a sandwich called “The Heater” -- a spicy hot cheesesteak with pepper jack and hot sauce.
Geno's and Rick's have had the concession previously.

awesome! its about time Campo's gets more recognition for their delicious sandwiches. I'd take a Campo's cheesesteak over Geno's, Rick's, Pat's, or Jim's anyday! Here's one more reason to go to the ballpark!— Bridget1720- i prefer their other sandwiches--which are awesome. cheesesteaks are OK.— DCExpat
- The only better steak sold there would be John's Roast Pork !— whatthe?

Bad move. Campo's cheesesteaks are not that good. Overrated.- I love Campo's! So happy to hear the news and that they got rid of those other greasy places. Looking forward to trying them at the ballpark.— springck
- Who got the lentil soup concession ?— mick314
- That hot cheesesteak sounds sick— Michael J
- I have lived in Philadelphia my whole life and had a cheese steak at all the big name places, Campo's is by far the BEST. Finally we can enjoy the Phillies and have the best steak around....Great move, can't wait till opening day.— BiGTiMePhiLLyGuY
- How much to get some Heaters shipped to Denver?— DerbyBound
- Whooooohooooooo!!!!!
- Please be seeded rolls...please be seeded rolls...please be seeded rolls

- When I come back home to visit, Campo's is the first stop from the airport. It's like coming home. Can we get a concession at Wrigley Field?— Stuckinchicago
- Every time I've gone to Campo's in Old City the service has been incredibly rude and the management stingy (about petty things like extra napkins). The sandwiches are okay but not good enough for me to volunteer to be treated badly. I stopped going.— jleibovitz

- does that mean Tony Luke's is gone in left center field??— beefbr
Campo's had my post removed. It's a shame that the hot head manager that I mentioned...can't "Man up" to his actions. Next time...watch who you're talking to...and keep your temper down- Why are some comments about Campo's removed? I find this disappointing that a paper/online forum that exists due to Freedom of Speech, can summon a reason to stifle it in others. Is this Tierney's world?.....must be a really fun place to work at over on Broad Street these days...I don't envy anyone there.
- How do you know it was Campo's that removed your post? Anyone can "report abuse" if what you wrote was offensive -see right of screen. I say good luck and good for them. I sent some of their cheesesteaks overnight once and the recipient – who grew up here (and is not an employee, mikemike) loved them!— georgiaphilly
