“ Come here often for amazing hot dogs. With the great prices, sometimes I’ll even order two! Happy hour is great for draft beers, and plenty of local brews. Any hot dogs can be made with their sweet potato dog, so infinite options for vegetarians! The Chicago Bull dog is my go-to. Been here many times and will keep coming back. Great service and atmosphere ”
“ Such a plus that it’s open so late! Got the sausage flight, fried pickes, and onion rings more than enough for two. The French 75 was perfectly made and the lemon mascarpone cake was a delicious end. Next time will have to try individual hot dogs and I do wish they labeled which sausage was which all I know is I enjoyed them all (even the alligator and shrimp). ”
“ Good hole in the wall type of bar! Food is different and I have to respect that! Some items were a bit over salted but otherwise really good and came out pretty quickly! I got the Rocky Bal Boar ah. And it was great! Onion rings were really good too! Chicken sandwich was good but nothing outstanding. Might need bacon or something! Service was quick and very friendly. Would definitely return! ”
“ Love this place. I make sure to visit anytime I’m in South Jersey. The dogs are great and they have gluten free buns. Cocktails were really strong, service was hospitable. ”
“ We were greeted immediately and our waitress, Carey was attentive! Staff is very polite and nice. Carey always follow up and make sure we had everything we needed. The food is great and price is reasonable. Portion side is perfect. The hot dogs comes with a side of chips. They had happy hour on drinks during the weekday. Took the opportunity to get myself a house vodka drink. Pretty strong. Overall I would def come back with friends again. Nice time. Music is slightly loud but you can still hear the conversation in the table. ”
