    I absolutely love this place. I've been here with my fianceé many times and we usually order to take out. The folks who run the place are so nice. Their breakfast sandwiches are to DIE for. My favorite sandwich is the hottie though the other breakfast sandwiches are also incredibly delicious. I'm not sure there's anywhere else in Philly that would beat this place when it comes to the pure art of making a breakfast sandwich. One of my favorite things to do on a weekend morning is to get a breakfast sandwich from Lisa's. The deliciousness of these sandwiches makes my entire weekend.

    Simple, classic, and fairly priced. Always a great experience. I really like the steak, egg, and cheese on a long roll

    Farm Hand Breakfast Sandwich
    Jack M.

    No nonsense cash only breakfast joint with tasty sandwiches. I ordered the ham egg and cheese topped with hash browns on a long roll. I think its called the Farm Hand. The bread was soft and chewy. It did its job of highlighting the sandwich contents well. Inside lay a generous helping of fresh fried eggs, crispy hash browns, thick slices of country ham, and salty American cheese. This was a massive and delicious sandwich with lots of salt, fat, and flavor. Great for a Saturday breakfast.

    Went for breakfast, which is what you will be going there for as well cause of their hours. In short I loved the place. Run by two people who enjoy what they do and are proud of the place. I got the varsity (long roll). Ordered half to eat there and half to go home. The bread/meat/egg/cheese ratios are SPOT ON. I know the picture makes it look like it might be bread heavy but it works. The varsity is a big sandwich so plan accordingly. It's a solid breakfast sandwich spot. I felt good leaving Lisa's kitchen. All sandwiches come with egg, cheese, and that wonderful hash brown. You pretty much play around with the meat choices. I got the scrapple since I am new to Philadelphia. I liked it. I am not sure if everyone will. It's like meat loaf made with pork. The vibes are cool, plus it's one of those places that has sassy quotes on their wall and I am a sucker for those kind of places.

    This place is a mom and pop place where you truly wish the owners were your parents. The sandwiches are ridiculously good, made fresh in front of you, and all come with a hash brown in your PEC? Phenomenal. The bread is great too and the prices are on point. What more could you ask for? I'm trying to become a regular because it is thaaat good, and the vibes in there were amazing. The owners know everybody who walks in, and they're super friendly and warm. Please visit this place, you won't regret it. Also FYI they're cash only!

    Great breakfast sandwiches in a tiny shop. If you're looking for a meal on a roll at a reasonable price, check this place out. One recommendation is call in your order. First, there's not much room to wait. Second, they go until closing or until they're out of rolls, so you know you'll get your food.

    It's Sunday morning, you just woke up and you're sooooooo hungry but you don't have time or want to pay for expensive brunch. Well good news for you! Lisas kitchen is the perfect quick breakfast spot! So many options (they even have turkey bacon) and lisa and her husband keep prices low so your huge bagel sandwich doesn't break the bank. My boyfriend and I finally made it here this weekend and we're so happy to support this yummy neighborhood spot!

    Stopped here after a nearby yoga class. The smell of bacon greets you as enter the shop. The owners (a husband and wife) greet you. She mans the grill while he jots down your order. I got a breakfast platter: the hash brown was crispy without excess oil, the eggs were exactly as ordered, bacon thick and perfectly crunchy and the coffee was fresh and hot. I will definitely stop by again if I find myself in this area. Ps street parking was readily available. Bring cash as it's the only form of payment they accept.

    Wow! What a hidden gem ! I've driven past this lil place in the tuck , sooooo many times and never noticed it until I went on maps in my phone and searched breakfast & brunch so glad I did. Called in my order and the guy was so nice . Enormous Sandwiches for the money , it was excellent keep up the great job. I'm a very picky person so this a great find for me will definitely tell friends and return again soon

    If you have yet to try one of Lisa's breakfast sandwiches, shame on you. Cash only. Call ahead or drop in to place your order, and chat with the wonderful owners as they whip up your breakfast right in front of you. There are a few seats if you decide to dine in. Food is cheap, comes in two sizes, the baby and regular versions, and is OUT OF THIS WORLD

    A delicatessen with a pickle bar?! Count me in! A must visit destination for me when visiting one…read moreof my besties in Philly. I've been for breakfast, lunch and dinner through the years. Their challah French toast is something I often think fondly of! They've always been super friendly, and this location may be older but kept clean. I would not just return, but suggest others to stop by in they are visiting the area!

    My partner had been to both Murray's Deli and Hymie's Deli in Ardmore. We wanted to have lunch…read moreafter an appointment, so I took a quick look on Yelp, and decided to go to Hymie's. It was packed - only a few tables were available at 12:30 on a Friday afternoon. We were immediately seated and looked over the menu. We decided to share a 1/2 Pastrami sandwich ( you can order 1/2 a sandwich ), 1/2 a Corned Beef sandwich, an order of Potato Latkes and we each had a small bowl of Chicken Matzo Ball soup. The soup was delicious - it was a little bowl with tiny shreds of carrots and chicken. The broth tasted very good, however, the matzo ball was a 'little' different. They were light and fluffy - but there was no texture or flavor at all....none. I would have thought the matzo balls would have absorbed some of the flavor from the soup, but it didn't. I finished the soup, but left the matzo ball. My partner likes pastrami over corned beef - she says it's a more 'peppery' flavor. While I probably prefer corned beef over pastrami because it's a leaner cut, my 'baseline' for pastrami is Katz's (NYC). I'm sure Katz's has great corned beef, but I've only had pastrami there - it's the best I've had. I thought my Corned Beef sandwich was excellent - it was lean, tender and very tasty. I squeeze out a little mound of mustard on my plate and dip. My partner thought her Pastrami sandwich was very good - it was also quite lean. I took a few bites of the pastrami, I thought my corned beef was tastier and had more texture. It almost seemed like they sliced the pastrami too thin. She liked her pastrami more than my corned beef - I suppose it's all a matter of individual taste. The Potato Latkes were delicious - especially with the applesauce! They were a little thicker than I might have preferred, possibly from either potato starch or matzo meal. However, there was a very nice potato taste and the thicker texture was fine. Of course, on the way out I saw a large selection of pasties and had to try a few! I got a few of the Rugelach and a Poppy Hamantash. The Rugelach were a disappointment - the interiors of all were very thick and doughy. I ate some of the exterior layers.....and left the rest. The Poppy Hamantash, on the other hand was one of the best I've had. It was by far the largest one I've ever had! As a result, there wasn't enough Mohn (poppy filling) for such a large pastry! The filling was very good as was the cookie (it was like 1/2 scone and 1/2 cookie)! Overall, Hymie's exceeded my expectations and I'll look forward to returning.

    My favorite beef steak sandwich in philly!!!…read more I eat gluten friendly and lactose free when I can and boy was I excited when I learned they had a gluten free bun for their hoagies! The upcharge is steep (~$4-5 Nov 2025), but the hoagie length is like the size of a forearm! What's better is that they also stuff the sandwiches to the brim, where the filling starts to spill out. The food is delicious. And most of the menu hits when you're craving greasy quick and filling food. Service is quick and timely. Ordering online is nice to build loyalty points and easy to customize orders. But the online fees - credit card & website charge, even when it's directly from their website, are high. The shop is on the corner of a street in Manayunk, so parking can be difficult or expensive. There is very limited seating. A few high tables along the window and high top chairs, nothing too comfortable. Carry out or takeout is recommended. I'll still come back, esp for their gluten friendly hoagie bun!!

Even the two servers were like "I'm gonna order that for lunch." The fried goat cheese balls were perfect! I wish a couple more were included in the salad but it included five. The grilled cheese had a mix of variety cheeses, including farmers and a couple more that I cannot name. There was also a bit of arugula in the sandwich, which was a very nice refreshing crunch.

My Cajun Shrimp Salad had mixed greens, tomato, avocado, roasted corn, pickled jalapeno. The tasty orange chili vinaigrette was perfect. A really tasty combo. Five shrimp, not huge but two bites if you cut them. Plentiful toppings, it was just what I needed. Husband ordered a Couch Club, with the avocado on the side (more for me). He didn't order a separate side dish, so it was just a panini on a plate, unadorned. Tasty enough but probably should have had one of their many soups as well to round out the meal. Next time! I bookmarked this place intending to come back, but in a week in Manayunk we barely scratched the surface of all the culinary delights and didn't repeat.

Them not opening on time has happened to me before but it was back when they first opened so I chalked it up to the fact that they were a brand new establishment.
