Shoppe History Back The company's founder, Ed Evans, is a native of Northeast Philadelphia. He grew up eating cheese steaks and hoagies from many of the best steak and hoagie shops throughout Philadelphia. He worked his way all through high school and college cooking them as well. After relocating to Northern California, Ed quickly recognized that west coast residents had been missing out on the east coast culinary treat. It was then he decided to open sandwich shops dedicated to the Philadelphia culinary delicacies. Established in July 2000, Philly Cheese Steak Shoppe quickly became the leading sandwich destination. Unlike other so called "Philly" sandwich shops, Ed insisted on only using the finest ingredients imported direct from Philly to create authentic, great tasting Philly foods.
