Marathon Grill Review

Throughout Center City are six modern, comfortable Marathon Grills, each with a gigantic menu boasting an enormous selection of comfort foods. Each modern, high-maintenance diner offers seven versions of grilled chicken-breast sandwiches, a pretty great matzo ball soup, and a "control freak" selection of choose-it-yourself omelets, sandwiches, and salads. Lunch is by far the busiest meal, with business-crowd lines for tables at the more popular outposts. Still, casual weekend brunches are available at the 16th and Sansom, 19th and Spruce (Marathon on the Square), 13th and Chestnut, 10th and Walnut, and 40th and Walnut (West Philly) locations. All branches allow takeout.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
