Be aware that if you stay up towards Bensalem, there is little to do. Depending on what time you arrive in the area, you may prefer staying in Center City to be able to enjoy Philly that afternoon, evening and Sunday morning.

As Steve said there isn't much but strip malls and chain restuarants near the track. There is a classic Philly sports bar named Chickie & Pete's which reportedly has descent food over on Roosevelt Blvd. about 10 minutes away.This would be a good place to watch the late NFL games and partake in an adult beverage or two if that interests anyone.

There are all your typical chains (outback,hooters, Friday's etc.) in the area. There is a Philly sub chain called Lees Hoagie House that is kind of dingy but has great sandwiches. It is on Streets Road a mile or so past the track. http://www.leeshoagiehouse.com/

I called on Woodhaven Foods in North East Philly, where PHA is, and there is a very good Italian deli/sandwich joint called, appropriately, DATILLO'S. It is off Roosevelt below Woodhaven Blvd. It is a local legend. I'll provide more info along these lines over the next day or so. In addition to doing business in Philly, I was an Eagles season ticket holder for 14 years. I've eaten about everywhere in town.
