( Mike Platania photo) Richmond’s Philly cheesesteak market is staying hot, as another option via a national chain is setting up shop near VCU. Charleys Philly Steaks is preparing to open at 1500 W. Broad St. It will be the Ohio-based chain’s second store in the Richmond region, joining its spot in Chesterfield Towne Center that opened last fall. Charleys has over 600 locations all over the globe, per its website. Located near the intersection of West Broad and Bowe streets, the roughly 2,000-square-foot space was formerly home to a Starbucks. The coffee shop and its neighbors GameStop and DTLR were damaged during last summer’s riot.

( Mike Platania photos) Philly Vegan opened earlier this month at 1126 Hull St. It is the second spot Philly Vegan has called home on the Southside. In 2019, owners Samuel Veney, Celicia Hartridge and Ratha Chhay began selling their cheesesteaks as a pop-up, leading to a sublease in Bon Air in February 2020. After a falling-out with its co-tenant last August, Veney said they began searching for Philly Vegan’s next home. “The space we had was only about 300 square feet. It was not big at all,” Veney said. “Fortunately, we made enough money in that little six months to start blowing up and be able to come over to where we are now.”
