Diner Surprise...




Andy's Diner
505 West Ridge Pike
Conshohocken, PA 19428

My fiancé and I headed up to King of Prussia to register for wedding gifts, and we were starving afterwards, so we stopped at a diner across the street from the car wash we just went to. It was kind of a hybrid diner and pub called Andy’s. We were seated as soon as we walked in which was nice because they place was pretty packed. I was in the mood for some soup and a sandwich, so I convinced my fiancé to each get the Matzo ball soup and split a turkey club. 



The soup came up right away, and I was glad to see it was piping hot. The broth was very flavorful without being too salty. The matzo balls however were a little crumbly. They didnt hold together well, especially once you began to try to cut them. Luckily the flavor of them was pretty good, so the soup was a winner anyway. If the texture of the matzo balls had been better, it would have been a knockout soup. 

The turkey club was on point! They used turkey breast that seemed like it had been roasted in house, and they didn’t skimp on it either. There was a ton of turkey on this sandwich. The rye bread was toasted perfectly and it held the whole sandwich together nicely. Crispy bacon is the most important part of a club sandwich next to the meat ratio. If the bacon isn’t crispy, it can ruin the whole sandwich. This bacon cracked loudly when bitten into, so you knew it was cooked perfectly. The fries accompanying the sandwich were crispy and delicious as well. 



Two and a half pints for Andy’s Diner. The matzoh balls really fell flat, otherwise that soup would have been dynamite. Yes its your run of the mill diner at the end of the day, but that turkey club sandwich was a gourmet take on it. I'm sure they have some other menu items that live up that praise as well. Its definitely a solid option in the area for some good, cheap grub, so check it out and let me know what you think! Cheers!
