The decline of the Italian Hoagie
"Danny's Favorite" at Wegmans supermarkets is very tasty. Bread is unusually good as well - made on site, I believe.

OK folks - what's the best Italian along the Schuylkill Expwy or the Blue Route? I live up in Allentown (Wegmans does really good hoagies) but have to head to 30th Street at odd hours later both today and tomorrow. I don't want the hassle of wandering around Center City; I'm looking for something within 5 minutes of that route.
I know of Fat Daddy's in Plymouth Meeting, and Primo's in Conshohocken. Primo's closes by 7 pm (how stupid) so that won't be an option. Thanks!

Lou's Zeps are wonderful. Had one a couple years back. Would definitely return in a heartbeat.
Wegman's has beer!!!!
The Allentown, Bethehem, and Nazareth Wegmans now all sell beer. Pricing is reasonable by PA 6-pack standards; about a buck more than you'd pay at a MD or NJ liquor store. Selection in Allentown is decent.
Several Weis Markets now also sell beer. The one in Schnecksville (branded Kings) does; the one in Broadcasting Square in Reading (Spring Twp) is supposed to be doing so soon.

The decline of the Italian Hoagie
New but related question: Where's the best place within 2 miles either side of the Blue Route to get a hoagie after 6 PM?
I live up in Allentown, but fly out of Philly Airport every couple of months.
I flew back into Philly last night, and wanted to get a decent Italian hoagie at roughly 7 PM or so as I was headed up the Blue Route on my way to the Northeast Extension.
I had my eyes on Primo's in Conshohocken -- never had a Primo's before so wanted to try -- but most Primo's close at 7 PM. That's just wrong for a suburban hoagie shop in my opinion.
I see Trio's in Woodlyn has some fans...and Ithan Market up in Villanova...what others are worth trying?
Thanks - Richard
