"We were greeted by Tom, who was very friendly and helpful as this was our first time here. My wife got the Chicken Gyro while I had the Super Sub (all the meat). Both were good and I had to ask for a box because I could not finish this big sandwich! My wife also had the rice pudding which she said was to die for! All in all, our first trip to Bill's Sandwich Shop will definitely not be our last!"

"First coming here and the food was delicious me and my son shared a basket of med fries with cheese and some hot dogs and my husband got a Philly cheese steak I think that's what it was but either way everything was delicious"

"This place is probably one of the best restaurants I have been to. Not only were me and my best friend greeted by a friendly cashier, everyone else after us was as well. My best friend had the small cheeseburger with a medium fry (chili/cheese) and baklava, everything was beyond perfect!!!! I had a Gyro, medium fry (chili/cheese), and the rice pudding. I could not recommend the rice pudding more! If I could give this place 10 stars I would because that's what it deserves but, I will settle for rating it at 5. Thanks to all of the staff at Bills Sandwich Shop for a wonderful dining experience!! We will definitely be back!!!"

"Was in the area and wanted the best chili dogs in New Castle. Welcomed by a young man and was out the door with 3 chili dogs "to go" in no time"

"My burger was good and I really enjoyed the chili cheese fries. I liked that it was more of a cheese sauce instead of shredded cheese. Loved the Tiffany Glass lights inside and the workers were friendly and quick."

"My family gets takeout from this location every once in a while and the food has always been great. Easily the best chili in town and is equally as good at the Wilmongton Rd. restaurant as well as Jimmy's (which is basically the same restaurant) across from Cascade Park. I would rate all locations 5 stars, but I really love this location because, as of a few years ago anyway, it's run by Bill himself.....yes, the original Bill, and he's an incredibly friendly and welcoming man. You can also use your bank/credit card to pay at this location. The location on E. Washington St. is cash only. While they do have an ATM inside the restaurant for your convenience, it (unsurprisingly) charges a fee so keep that in mind when you go to pick up your food. But the food is excellent and the employees are super cool there as well so it's well worth the minor inconvenience. But back to the State St. location, 5 of 5 easily. I mean, this is Bill's and, IMO, there is no place more deserving of 5 stars than this place."

"Fries tasted fresh, service is quick, and prices are lower than other fast food places. I’ve never had a problem with orders. Not sure if the owner is “trying” to be nostalgic or just wont invest in upgrades."

"Best hotdogs ever!! If you are not from New Castle PA. This place rivals, nay outshines Coney Island. I grew up in this town, and I've been going to this particular Bill's since I was a child. I knew Bill papazekos. He himself told me his delicious hot dog Chili (which is coveted) is an old family recipe from his homeland Greece. He was the nicest guy you'd ever meet, and he worked just as hard as his employees, if not harder. R.i.P Bill, you are missed and are immortalized forever through your chili recipe. I watched him retire and sell to Stephen Paris, and after his untimely passing, He returned briefly, and then it was sold to the very capable hands of Tom Schaffner, another very nice guy and former employee. He works hard, right alongside his employees. I am a regular trust me, I can say from personal experience that the recipe hasn't deviated much from the original. That is why that place will always be in business food that good doesn't stop being loved by thousands over the years. This place is a legend. This business may not have the recognition that Coney Island does, but it, for sure, should, and is surely one of the reasons that New Castle PA. Is the hotdog capital of the world! If you are not from New Castle PA and wanna experience the taste of an authentic New Castle chilidog, I highly suggest you make this one of your stops on that tour. Coney Island is decent, but Bill's is better!"
