arriving PHL 12 midnight, where to find food?

Next week we're making another house-hunting trip to Philly, but the cheapest flight I could find arrives at midnight. Any suggestions of where we could find an open restaurant or grocery store near the airport at the hour? I'm not looking for fancy, just safe and open, and not with golden arches. We can make do with a cold supermarket meal if need be, but no more Happy Meals!

I know some the cheesesteak places are 24 hour, but I'm not quite bold enough for south Philly at that hour. Traveling companion is 4 ft tall 8 yr old, not 6'3" husband.

Also, first night we're just going to want to crash out locally and not drive too far - budget/moderate hotels near PHL all get mediocre reviews on TripAdvisor, etc. Is there one that is clearly better than the pack, or one I really should avoid?

TIA
