We stop in at Dan's Dogs every few months when we're in the area. The place is pretty teeny, so I would recommend avoiding peak lunch hours. They have tons of different hot dog combinations ranging from the plain Red Baron to the extreme peanut butter and jelly Deputy Dog (sounds gross but it's actually really tasty!). My personal faves... More

If you like hot dogs then you will absolutely LOVE this place. Quaint, tiny, nostalgic with literally hundreds of hot dog variations with fun names like the Shaggy ( hot dog with sauerkraut and mustard). But as good as the food is...the service is 5x worse making this a restaurant that doesn't deserve the passing grade

We go to Dans Dogs often, it is my kids (7,9 and 14) favorite place to eat. The dogs are great, the nachos are great and the root beer floats and sundaes are good too! Baskets of toys to occupy the kids at the table and its very affordable! Try "Aunt Kays Beans", they're delicious!

We have been to Dans dogs several times. This time was absolutely terrible. We sat ourselves as we were told when we walked in. Several servers walked past us, no menus no one even came over for 8-9 minutes. There were only 5-6 tables. We were finally brought menus and ordered. The chili was good, as it has been in... More

If you like great a selection of hot dogs, that bring back memories of Coney Island this is the place. The theme in decor is the sixties or the tv show happy days. It is not Arnolds, but a first class runner up.

Completely authentic decor from an old school diner. This isn't man-made reproduction items! The food is wonderful - how couldn't it be when there's like 50 hot dog combinations to choose from, along with sandwiches, salads, etc. Their hand squeezed "fair" lemonade is spot on! Super kid friendly!

Dan's Dogs is the place i go. the decor is straight 50's diner. the food is served in plastic baskets, and the rootbeer is served in frosty mugs. Chili dogs are great here as is pretty much everything else.

Any place that can survive just being a hot dog diner must be doing something right. They are. Every once in a while taste buds (for whatever reason) scream for a hot dog, yes, a hot dog. Dan's Dogs is a fun, throwback place to satisfy that craving. It is an old-time diner with a great list of choices to... More

A LOT! They have many many different hot dogs with toppings to try. I've done them all. Personally the peanut butter and jelly hot dog and the pizza dogs are my favorite. Get the milkshake or their root beer. Oh, cheese fries.... cant forget them.

It's like going back in time to a 60's drive inn. The food is great and the milk shakes are even better.
