LeBron James will be getting some royal treatment from a couple of iconic Philly spots … with a pair of cheesesteak pads promising to roll out the cheese whiz-colored carpet for King James … now that he’s joining the city’s NBA team.

Over at the iconic Pat’s King of Steaks, they’re temporarily changing up how their customers order their fan-beloved Whiz Wit to reflect the new king in town, naming it “The King’s Way.” The OG Whiz Wit will keep its classic ingredients: cheese Whiz with onions on juicy steak … so no worries, there.

Frank Olivieri, third-generation owner of Pat’s tells TMZ… “Everyone knows there’s only one way to order the classic, and now there’s a new way to say it. When you come to the window and ask for The King’s Way, we’ll know exactly what you mean.”

Meanwhile, Geno’s Steaks has promised a meal fit for King James in the establishment’s coveted VIP booth … as well as a lesson with Geno himself on how to grill up some of the finest cheesesteaks the City of Brotherly Love has to offer.

President Geno Vento tells TMZ… “Our VIP booth – the hardest seat in Philadelphia to get – already has LeBron’s name on it. Whenever he’s ready, we’ll welcome him with a cheesesteak, hand him the spatula, and even let him spend some time behind the grill for a little cheesesteak 101 with me personally. Every Philadelphia legend has a story at Geno’s, and we’d love for LeBron’s to begin here.”

LeBron is usually the biggest star in the room … though Geno’s has played host to a number of huge personalities over the years — including Shaquille O’Neal, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Travis Kelce and legendary Philadelphia Flyers mascot Gritty!

As you know … LeBron announced he was joining the 76ers on Friday in a heartfelt statement in which he also highlighted Los Angeles, Miami and Cleveland — the three cities from which he previously played.

LeBron inked a two-year, $8 million deal with a player option, according to his agent, Rich Paul. He said this will be the last stop of his historic career.

The season’s opening tip is just a couple months away … so LeBron better head over and get a sandwich while he can before he fully dives into bringing a championship back to Philly.
