Philly Philly was established in 2023 with a simple mission: to bring bold, indulgent American comfort food to the UK street food scene. Inspired by the iconic flavours of Philadelphia and the energy of live sports and music events, the brand was created to deliver high-impact food that people remember long after the last bite.
The business is run by founder Ali Bayar and Meredith Benson, who combine a passion for food, events and customer experience. Ali trained as a chef in Istanbul and has since worked in restaurants across Tokyo and London. From day one, Philly Philly has focused on quality ingredients, generous portions, and fast, friendly service for high-volume environments such as street markets, sports events, and music festivals.
Philly Philly’s menu centres around its signature Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, alongside crowd-pleasing favourites including Philly loaded fries, New Orleans chicken, mac & cheese croquettes, and hand-cut triple-cooked chips. Every item is designed with big flavours and filling meals and perfectly suited for event catering.
Philly Philly has recently invested in a brand new, state of the art food truck. This marks a major milestone for the business and reflects its commitment to scaling up operations, improving service speed, and delivering a standout visual presence at events.
From humble beginnings to an exciting new chapter on wheels, Philly Philly is building a reputation for great food, strong branding, and reliable event catering with plenty more still to come.
