JAXX STEAKS
SAVORY STEAKS & CRAFT BEERS
Nestled right at the crossroads where Moyamensing, Wharton, and 3rd meet in a glorious South Philly triangle, Jaxx Steaks isn’t just a place - it’s a vibe.
Part friendly neighborhood taproom, part cheesesteak mecca, and part unofficial sports clubhouse, Jaxx is where flavor meets Philly hospitality.
Once known as Charlie’s Roast Pork, this beloved corner joint rebranded in 2022 with a bold new name - and wasted no time turning heads. Indeed, Philadelphia magazine declared it “The Cheesesteak More People Should Be Talking About.” The assessment was spot-on.
Jaxx does not do bar food. They do bar feasts. Their cheesesteaks are thick, juicy masterpieces with generous portions of sizzling, high-grade beef lovingly tucked into a premium seeded roll. Go classic with fried onions and melt-in-your-mouth Cooper Sharp, and you’ve got yourself something borderline spiritual.
And then there’s the beer. With 300+ craft selections on hand, Jaxx has something for every kind of hophead, casual sipper, and beer geek in between. It is a place where discovering a new favorite is part of the fun.
On pleasant days and nights, Jaxx is like a city oasis. The garage doors roll up, letting the breeze flow through the taproom, while outdoor tables beckon from the sidewalk. Whether you’re flying solo, meeting up with friends, or relaxing after a Sunday stroll, there is always a spot - and a smile - waiting.
Sports on overhead TVs? Check. Locals hanging out? Definitely. A cheesesteak and a beer that might just change your life? That is standard.
If you have not been to Jaxx yet, consider this your sign. Because Jaxx is not just a cheesesteak joint, and it is not just a bar. It is South Philly at its tastiest - and its friendliest.
