Pensacola Philly Cheesesteak Restaurant Plans Nine Mile Road Expansion
August 4, 2025
A Pensacola restaurant is planning a new location on East Nine Mile Road across from Hillcrest Baptist Church.
Mojo’s Famous Philly, which has a location on North Pace Boulevard, plans to construct a 3,500-square-foot restaurant on a vacant .63-acre lot in the 700 block of East Nine Mile Road. The lot, located between a car wash and self storage facility, is currently vacant.
Plans filed with Escambia County indicate the restaurant will be drive-thru only and will not serve or sell alcohol. The restaurant serves wings, Philly cheesesteaks, and more.
The proposal is set for a pre-application meeting at 1:20 p.m. on Wednesday, August 6 at with the Escambia County Development Review Committee at 3363 West Park Place.

Don’t forget all the storage unit places because we Americans need to consume more stuff and need a place to keep it.
Wonder if the board will approve this before approving the Costco??
I’ve had mojos its nothing to write home about
wonder how many oak tress will be cut down
for this ?????
Another business on Nine Mile that is “drive thru” ONLY. Nothing like an eating a hot Philly sandwich cold. Sounds as exciting as cold french fries
We’re getting all the extra traffic on 9 Mile but none of the benefits of eating a hot meal at a table.
Just what we don’t need. Another fast food restaurant. It may be a great restaurant, but how many over priced fast food restaurant do we really need. It’s no different than putting a mega gas station on every corner. Where I live they built 2 new car washes around the corner from each other, 2 new coffee shops across the street from each other. Now, there building a 2nd medical clinic at the same intersection. This type of willie-nilly expansion makes no sense.
Well, Better Growth, you’ll be happy to know there is a weed shop just on the other side of the carwash – and adjacent to the NEP ball fields.
Haven’t been to the one off Pace, but I know half of it is a weed shop….. so if that’s the case , glad Pensacola hasn’t let me down and got my hopes up.
