There's nothing quite like picking up supplies at a Home Depot store in Philly and stopping to grab a breakfast sandwich or a cheesesteak at the Rocco's Italian Sausage stand in the parking lot. It's a great example of symbiosis in action: Hungry home improvers fuel up on calories at shacks that have found the perfect, niche market for people to kill two birds with one stone.
Since debuting in 2006 at the Home Depot stores on Columbus Boulevard in South Philly and Castor Avenue in Port Richmond, Rocco's stands have have expanded to all five Home Depots in the city. The others are on Oregon Avenue in South Philly and on Roosevelt Boulevard and Bustleton Avenue in Northeast Philly.
