Food near PPL Park

I will be in town tomorrow for the MLS All Star game at PPL Park in Chester, are there any great sandwich places nearby? I am also open to other things if there is something special.

    Where are you staying/leaving from to get to the park?

        How much time do you have between arrival and the game? Chester where the stadium is located is kind of like going ot the South Bronx or East LA. Not the place you want to spend a lot of time in. Now the tailgaiting that goes on at that game is pretty amazing, and if a large enough contingent from the Philadelphia area have tickets, its a spectacle in and of itself. The Sons of Ben are as crazy a bunch of fans as you will find anywhere, (they even have their own entrance to the stadium.) I do not know how well represented they will be at the all star game. You might want to just enjoy the tailgate and eat after the game.
