    Great local dive bar. Small outdoor seating area and indoor area. A piece of Americana.

    If your looking for a delicious hot dog and some cold beer in a frozen mug, then look no further. So many different hotdogs to choose from. I went with the Cincinnati dogs and nachos and cheese. It was starting to get busy, and there was one person handling outside. She did an awesome job making sure everyone had everything they needed.

    Little place that's been open since 1962. Service by Kaylyn was outstanding, beer was cold and food was excellent. How can you go wrong with 33 different kinds of hot dogs! Wings were plump and juicy, sides were on point. Prices are great on everything! Came back today 1-31-24, had the Texas Spicy Chili Dog and New England Dog and beers. Both were good, tots overcooked, NE dog was awesome. Had the West Virginia and Missouri Dogs on my third trip on 7-1-24, neither will be ordered again, not a favorite. Service still great as well as prices. Nice breeze on the deck, no smoke issue at all. Hidden local gem.

    It is a smoking bar Outdoor patio is terrific. Service is always friendly and spot on Ice cold beer. Basic coke products. So, maybe the fryer went out? They took off all fried items Instead of fries, nachos w8th cheese are the side. French dip is good. Burger is tasty. Cost is awesome. Very "locals" place.

    We've stopped by a couple of times this trip. All the staff is incredibly friendly. Wayne makes the most amazing pizza and the selection of hot dogs is unbelievable. And, I really can't figure out how the sell this food so cheap!
