One of the best cheesesteaks I’ve ever had! I’ve tried in Philly and other random spots but the cheesesteak with provolone here is probably the best. Have been coming here for years. Owner is awesome and puts out consistently great food. Not a fancy spot but definitely worth a visit.

Excellent food, excellent service, and HUGE portions! The best cheesesteak sandwich I've had anywhere. Bread is fantastic and made fresh daily. Amazing fries with great seasoning. Definitely recommend this place. Friendly small business owner that has been in business for 20 years. Go and support this establishment.

Found this little place when out shopping. It was delicious! The Phillies were amazing! Messy but amazing! Great onion rings as well. The food is made to order so you will have a short wait, but it's worth every minute. Try the homemade baklava as well.. the pistachio was yummy!

Food is amazing, always is! I usually get a steak philly with tzatziki sauce instead of mayo..so good. Gyro is also awesome. Only minor cons are that there are no free refills on the soda fountain and the inside could use a really good cleaning. No big deal, food is still a 10!

Best damn sandwich you can get in the area and pretty much anywhere. I know that’s a big statement, but philly steak factory is THAT delicious.
I’ve been going here for 15 years. The quality never wavers.
I can’t express how yummy the sandwiches are. The meat is juicy, marinated perfectly. The veggies are fresh and the owner cooks everything on the grill exactly right.
Come in and give it a try. It’s only of those special places that locals know about.

These guys are legit! They don't use the typical frozen slices of steak, but thicker, fresh meat. The six inch combo was almost too much food for me, but I pushed through to finish it. I imagine the 12 inch is a great way to split a meal with that special someone. The bread is made in house too! Service was friendly and prompt.

I used to go here as a kid And the food was always so good I’m originally from Philadelphia so I know a good cheesesteak This place here is hands-down the best Philly steak spot in the triangle ... I haven’t been in over four years and I got takeout tonight and it’s exactly how I remembered it ..... Consistency has always been their focal point and it shows in every bite you take

Cleanliness 4/5. Tables were a bit sticky. Got two drinks from their cooler and they were sticky from where an old drink had potentially burst or bust open on them.
Service 5/5. The man behind the grill was kind but stressed and overworked.
Quality 4/5. I ordered a pastrami sandwich and was moderately satisfied. But for $6 for a 6 inch sub I felt the price wasn't truly justified.
Price 3/5. Felt the sandwiches were a bit pricey.

I have been going to Philly Factory for more then decade and it’s my favorite sandwich place in the triangle. It’s just the sort of family business that does the best work. If you’re only going to eat one meal in Durham you can’t go wrong with Philly Streak Factory.

Oh my,my 3 sons and I love this sandwich shop. Their food is sooo delicious. The half or whole philly cheese is amazing. The fries are fresh, crunchy, and tasty. The fountain drinks are great and if you like there are bottled sodas too. Alex loves the gyros. I like the subs. Mac and Zach love everything too.
The proprietor and his son are friendly. They are not only good cooks but interesting to chat with as well.
Try it out you.will be glad you did. Your taste buds will thank you.
Check out the photos.

Best philly steak in the WORLD. I’ve lived in a few different cities, a few different countries, and let me tell you, you’ll never find anything that quite compares. Excellent food, excellent customer service, what more could you ask for. I make the 30 minute trip from Raleigh as often as I can. I tell all my friends about this place, and I talk so much about it that they say when they come visit NC, they have to come here first!

My favorite place for lunch. I've been going here for over ten years. The owner works from open to close every day and is an amazing guy. He has a wonderful family and a awe inspiring story. I get the half steak on white bread with lettuce, tomato, mayo, and provolone cheese with a side of fries. It always hits the spot.

I've been going to this shop for over 15 years. The food is fresh, made right in front of you when you order. The tables are always clean, and the fountain drinks are never flat. The owner is friendly and super courteous, and goes out of his way to make his regulars feel welcome and valued. I've never been disappointed after eating here.

I've traveled around the world for my work, and along the way I've eaten more than my fair share of Philly steak sandwiches. A world of Philly steaks, and yet I keep returning to Philly Steak Factory in Durham, NC. The bread is perfection, the meat is unprocessed, the seasoning is second to none, and the toppings are simple and fresh. Chat with the proprietor as he expertly cooks your sandwich right in front of you. Enjoy it in the humble confines of the store, and finish your meal with a piece of baklava.

The gyros here reminds of the gyro shops back in the Midwest. Let me just say, this the only place I buy my gyros from. Also, the service is fast and friendly.

The chicken cheese steaks are so freaking good. I get a half bc they pack so much meat in it and it gets you full. I wouldn't be able to eat a whole in one sitting lol.

Want a good Philly Steak Sandwich in Durham? This is where you'll find it. You know it's good when the meat by it's self is on point.

I usually receive more enthusiastic service. The servers seemed less than thrilled this time around. The pizza was okay. I think the food usually is pretty average, but service is usually good and I can count on them to have on the right games.

This is my 'go to' for gyros in Durham. The beef/lamb is well seasoned and cooked. The tzatziki is tasty and the portions are good. They make outstanding steak and cheese as well. For dessert, the pistachio baklava is great. The staff is friendly. Unfortunately, they are closed on Fridays now, which is when we like to eat out for lunch instead of bringing lunch to work, but it's good enough that occasionally we'll reschedule our lunch day.

Being from NEPA, this is the closest I can find to a true authentic Philly steak taste. Would highly recommend their Philly steak and their Reuben as well.

Love this place. The Philly chicken is always on point especially with the special hot sauce. I've been coming here for over 20 years and i wish there was one in Atlanta. I look forward to coming home for the best. 😄

Love getting sandwiches from this shop! The owner and his son (I assume) are always kind, the service is fast, and most importantly the food is delicious. You'll pay about $15 a person, but it's well worth it. I've been coming in for a good 5-6 years now, and in that time, I've had their cheesesteak, their chicken cheesesteak, and their gyros and they have all been well worth the price.

For 27 YEARS the owner of this unassuming joint has been serving up hands down the best Philly in the Triangle! 17 years I've been eating here, and never once have I been disappointed.
REAL steak, none of the processed junk, quality cheese, rolls the perfect texture. Juicy to the point of needing a pile of napkins.
Sandwiches are not just delicious, but also MASSIVE. A "half" Philly here is bigger than a full at most places. Really fantastic bang for your buck.
