Egyptian Cafe - Darby Township

Great food. You have to try the hummus. It puts all others to shame! Friendly atmosphere. When it is warmer weather the garage door is up and is very inviting to hang out after a long day of work or school. Owners and employees are all outstanding. Couldn't ask for a better place to hang out with my awesome friends.

This is a great lunch spot despite the hookah. Excellent Mediterranean-inspired sandwiches and other dishes. And the seasoned fries are the best. Love going here in the warm months when the huge windows to the street are open.

First drop in to this place even though I have lived in the area for nearly 15 years, realized I should not have waited this long! Us quattro of guys was hankering for gyros and got treated well from the moment we stepped in, wish I got the skinny guy 's name, very polite chap and took our orders tho spread across 10 minutes as two showed up later and weren 't sure what they wanted. The menu is a great size and gives many reasons to come back! The only issues are frustrating parking with only 1 hour slots typically impossible to find during the semester; a more serious problem for sensitive types, the Arabian inspired atmosphere is lightly smothered in hookah smells and holds to clothing. Thankfully we were taking food to go and noticed the hookah aura less as we were this proper food takes about 20 minutes. Good to know a quick dip in for fast food isn 't realistic here. We broke open the gyros and burrito to discover them Mediterranean spices turned up to 11! My friend 's raved about the fries and nothing edible in the wraps was left after a few minutes for one aggressive eater. At these prices, this is probably the best take-out in the area!
