Today I’d like to introduce Bill over at Cherry Street Tavern, located on the corner of 22nd and Cherry St in Center City Philadelphia! Bill was born in 1952 and raised in northeast Philadelphia. His high school football coach owned it beforehand and Bill had worked under him for some years and even as a coach at La Salle College high school from 1972-1982. Almost a decade after his coaching career, Bill was ready to start a new chapter in his life and that was to own Cherry Street Tavern! His brother Bob soon finished his college years and came alongside Bill to run the place. For those of you that don’t know, this is place has the best roast beef sandwich in all of the city. For those of you that know, you know. Cherry St Tavern celebrated its 50th consecutive St. Patrick’s day this past year. Bill and Bob are original customers of BTS Foods since 1997! On his days off, Bill enjoys fishing down in Wildwood and Sea Isle with his son. Bill and Bob are openly looking to sell the place in the future and enjoy retirement, hopefully the buyer can preserve this place and keep the legendary Cherry St Tavern going for decades to come! Swipe to see how we go above and beyond for our customers, we could easily leave it upstairs and make them take it to the basement, but we take pride in our service and do whatever it takes to keep customers happy!
