Near Oreland: breakfast and later a cheesesteak?

Your recommendations are needed. I'd really like a well cooked breakfast and also two evening meal destinations: well cooked but reasonable (one really needs to be a Cheesesteak).

      If you need to stay close the Penn diner is a very small old fashioned place where you will get calledhon a lot. NOT a foodie place but it is in oreland.on penna. Ave.
      Pizza Box on Limekiln Pike has VG cheesesteaks and .....pizza.

        Fairlane Diner offers the best breakfast in the area. Their milkshakes are amazing. The service is great, especially the chick with all the tattoo's!

          Second Fairlane Diner. Be prepared to wait for a booth. It's tiny but worth it. For an evening destination, I would suggest Mina Cucina on North Bethlehem Pike in Springhouse. No reservations and byob. You should be fine if you arrive by 6pm.

            For your cheesesteak, go no further than The Phils Tavern (http://www.thephilstavern.com/) in Ambler (10 minutes away). You will not be disappointed.
