This grand expansion certainly has everyone on the edge of their seats!

One of the stars of the show at Big Dave’s Cheesesteaks is, of course, the sandwiches. Each one is a *culinary delight* made with Amoroso rolls, filled with juicy chopped steak, and topped with a trio of cheeses, onions, peppers, and mushrooms. Are your taste buds tingling yet? But that’s not all! The menu also boasts a variety of delectable choices including savory egg rolls, crispy fries, and the traditional Philly rainbow-flavored water ice to cool you down on those warm Florida days.

A Flavor Explosion & Ambitious Plans

Founded by Derrick Hayes in 2016, Big Dave’s Cheesesteaks has seen tremendous growth since its humble beginnings at a gas station in Dunwoody, Georgia. The chain now features four locations across Georgia and another in North Carolina, and now it’s ready to set up shop in Florida! The company is on an ambitious expansion initiative, aiming to create a unique culinary experience that truly reflects Florida’s sports community. This is particularly exciting, given the new partnership with Camping World Stadium, where fans are sure to flock to enjoy events and grab a bite afterwards.

Speaking of the stadium, it’s quite an exciting time for that venue! Major events are on the calendar, including a concert scheduled for November 18, 2024, along with various bowl games leading into February 2025.
