Best hot dogs in the area, one of the best places overall in the Philly area, if you ask me!

Nice, clean friendly Most important Mmmmm Good Try it you'll be back. The owner Rick is a hometown guy that treats you with respect. read more

Are you the kind of person who will drive for a great hot dog? Then set your GPS to 318 Bustleton Pike, Feasterville-Trevose, PA., and get you and yours to Cheese Dawgs, purveyors of great hot dogs worth the drive. Mrs. F and I reviewed all the great YELPs for this establishment, until we just couldn't stand it anymore. So today we drove all the way from Langhorne (4 miles!), laden with great hot dog expectations. We were not disappointed! On the north side of Bustleton Pike, Cheese Dawgs is understated, offering plenty of parking in front. As we walked up to the door, a hand-lettered sign boasted new Bacon Buttercups, confirming "food awesomeness" is the official language of the establishment. Through the front windows, there were already tables of patrons on a Wednesday at 1230pm, another welcome sign. Let's go in! The decor is no-frills, clean, and bright with a side counter, round tables and chairs, a short bench in front, and the order counter in back. A large screen TV was playing a classic Gunsmoke rerun. Older folks who seemed like regulars were dining on hot dogs, grilled cheese, and soups, and another patron was waiting for a take out order. A friendly gentleman, later confirmed as the owner, greeted us warmly and we got down to business: the menu. A handwritten board showed a large selection of signature dogs, most named for the neighborhoods and areas around the locale. Each combo could be had as footlong, veggie, or turkey for an extra dollar, with a "build your own" dog option which would be fun for kids. The take-home menu doesn't do justice to the dozens of dog combos, named for the local 'hood, region, state, or sports team du jour. The "South Philly" dog, for example, features spicy mustard, sharp provolone cheese, all smothered in sauteed onions. Dig the dogs! Giving in to hipster locavore trendiness, I chose "The Feasterville", while Mrs. F kept it real with "The Jersey". Each were footlongs, with the Feasterville featuring sharp provolone with jalapeno slices. The Jersey, by contrast, was decked out in sweet and tangy coleslaw, sauteed onions, provolone and... wait for it... bacon! Mrs. F also opted for a cup of corn chowder, the soup of the day. We watched Gunsmoke, read a complimentary Courier-Times, and chatted about "The Wall of Fame" on which 91 patrons are enshrined for conquering "The Beast", aka two dressed-out footlong dogs in under 10 minutes. At $10, one is tempted to bring the kids, and have some fun slaying these meaty dragons. The food arrived promptly, brought to our table by the owner in less than 10 minutes. Both dogs were distinctive, each a grilled footlong in a freshly toasted bun with abundant and colorful toppings. The Feasterville dog was sharp and spicy, while the Jersey served up sweet and savory coleslaw/bacon wonderfulness. What impressed us both was the freshness of the food (including the corn chowder) but also the friendliness of the owner. For example, we had a bottle of soda which was very flat, which the owner promptly let us replace with another soda, with zero percent awkwardness. Mrs. F and I had a great lunch! Since there are dozens of other hot dog and grilled cheese combos, we will definitely come back to Cheese Dawgs, bring the kids, and who knows? Maybe get a name on the Wall of Fame. PS: Little did we know that Cheese Dawgs features live music on the regular!

Three words: Its a dessert. TO BE CONTINUED!! read more

I'm not going to say I'm a hot dog connoisseur (had to look up how to spell that!)...okay, maybe I am. I'll get a hot dog any chance I get. They just remind me of the summer and the ball park. Anyway, when I came across Cheese Dawgs, I couldn't resist. I started out with a plain dawg, which was good, but then I stepped my game up and went for south philly dawg (I can't resist spicy mustard). It was amazing. I refuse to BBQ for the rest of the summer; I'd rather just stop off at Cheese Dawgs and get my summer bbq filling. read more

On my great American hot dog search this place came up on yelp as a must see in Buck's County. it didn't disappoint. We had the footlongs. One w/mustard and raw onions (i'm a purist) the other an "Arizona Dawg." The hot dog was quality as was the roll. No potato bread rolls here, the bread is straight from a NJ Italian bakery, Aversa's. The owner is friendly and we had a nice chat about some the famous Jersey top dogs (Jimmy Buffs, Destination Dogs, Rutt's Hut). Got to see someone take the "beast" challenge while we were there. A 2 ft. long hot dog that must be eaten in less than 10 minutes! if you succeed you get a t-shirt and your name on the wall of fame. Don't think I'll consider that but I will be back to enjoy the good food and friendly atmosphere. read more

I expected more. It was a basically a hot dog with American cheese and a topping. I thought the dogs would be better based on the hype.

This place is so good for what it is. They're open 11am-4pm and have a pretty large menu. I'd like to go back and try another one but when I first stopped by, my boyfriend got in a conversation with the owner and was asking if he knew anything about "completos" (which in my opinion is the best style of hot dog - Chilean staple) and the owner knew what he was talking about! So he made me a completo with what he had available; traditionally the completo has diced tomatoes, mayo and mashed up avocado (don't judge until you try it!). The Cheese Dawgs version was a bit different but still tasty and the owner was so friendly. read more

Dogs were decent. We had the Dallas, NY, NJ and Pleasant Pig. The Mac and cheese is Kraftlike, not homemade. They offer several different kinds of bagged chips but no fries or rings. They have water for $1. Service by the owner was very friendly. read more

This place has been here for 6 years and we've never been here. I don't know why because it's amazing! Came with my husband and we had 2 Philly dogs, a West Virginia, a Dallas and 2 Chicago's. All so different and all so delicious. We can't wait to come back! read more

Stopped by with my daughter i had a great footlong Trenton hotdog. Porkroll wrapped around hotdog on a great roll. Daughter had roastbeef melt both were excellent. The owner is extremely friendly and takes pride in his food. A couple of regulars were in there joking with us and recommending things. Such as the grlled ice cream on glazed donut. Yeah we were in for that. Great lunch will be back real soon. read more

I have driven passed this place a thousand times and have never thought to stop in. One day we were looking for a fast and yummy lunch and decided to give this place a try. My boyfriend got a jersey foot long. I got a chili crunch regular. We took them out, got them home and chowed down. The chili crunch was absolutely amazing! The bun, the hot dog and the chili and Fritos was a perfect combination. I regretted immediately getting the regular size. I wanted more! My boyfriends hot dog was gone in under two minutes. He thoroughly enjoyed it. This is definitely a place I would go back to. I'm craving it just writing about it. read more

Perfect hotdogs here. Had the breakfast foot long, buffalo chicken grilled cheese and another kind of grilled cheese that had Swiss cheese, ham , pickles on rye bread. Everything was delicious. They had grape soda which is glorious. I'm a fan and we'll definitely be back. read more

Stopped in today for a good hotdog and this place was awesome! If you're looking for a Jersey shore type of hotdog, this is the place to get it and it's a lot closer than the shore. They have quite a few different toppings and the owner was extremely friendly. I will be stopping in again soon. read more

Even if you're not in the mood for a hot dog, try it out and you'll be very happy. The owner is very friendly and there's a huge variety of different hot dog flavor combos that will fancy your taste buds. There's also a hot dog challenge so if you want your picture on the wall, prepare yourself. I'm actually going to try to out soon so I'll keep an update about that soon! Tell him Esther sent you! read more

Great dogs toppings and rolls. Good prices. Only criticism is they should have fries/onion rings or more sides on menu. Son loved it. Will absolutely be back. read more

Great spot!!! Dogs were fresh and delicious...had the Philly and the Carolina. The cole slaw on the Carolina was so good. Toasted bun was perfect. Place is nice, clean and owner is cool. I will definitely be a regular. read more

For me to write 5 stars for what sounds like a hot dog place means a lot. I reserve 5 for the best of the best, and that is what this little underrated place is. Three comfortable tables, a menu of unique food and drinks, run by a man who truly loves food and having fun making food. Check the link to their website and you will get a glimpse as to why this is not your run of the mill restaurant. Privately owned and run. This man cares about his product and customer's like no owner I've ever had the pleasure of meeting before. By no means are these standard hot dogs, and by the way, the cheese in 'Cheese Dawgs' stands for grilled cheeses. He also has soup for the non-daring traditionalist. Desert was a very quality cherry water ice and chocolate covered bacon. Next time I will try his fried ice cream sandwich. When I tell you this place is tops, I mean it. No where near me,recommended by a friend, and I will be making the drive again and again. read more

Great little place with a diverse menu for hot dogs, that sounds funny. Perfect place for kids. I don't like hotdogs, but the chili cheese crunch was really good. Owner is super nice! read more

Finally got here and I will tell you that I was extremely happy I did! I ordered the Jersey and the Chicago. Both were outstanding. I saw many more varieties go by as I ate and all looked fabulous. The owner was over the top in friendliness and attentiveness. I am defiantly coming back to try some other styles! read more

WOW! My kids loved the unique dawgs! My kids tried the grilled cheese, bustleton, Arizona, and Texas tommy. My guys ordered a second round cause they were delish! I got the pork roll sandwich and it didn't disappoint. The owner is super nice and super friendly! I can't believe we didn't find this place before!! read more

Great spot for a quick, tasty lunch. Very affordable with many creative options. The service is speedy and the owner, Rick is usually on site and eager to please. read more

A little on the pricey side but the dogs are good and the service is impeccable. I wish they offered 1/4lbs dogs and shredded cheese though. read more

Very good hotdogs. I love all the specialty dogs. The south philly was my favorite. I'll be back for sure.

Great dogs for a great price. Lots of styles to choose from. My personal favorites are the Chicago Dawg, and Philly. Great customer service and very friendly owner. read more

I just went to Cheese Dawgs and let me tell you, totally worth the trip!! I got the South Philly Dawg and it is SOOOOOO GOOD!!! I would recommend this place to anyone it is so worth going to. Great Service, great food, and reasonable prices...Cant wait to go again read more

Super Cute Place. Someone told me about it and I stopped by to pick up lunch for a bunch of hungry guys. I personally don't really eat hot dogs - but they smelled really good. I broke down and ate one (Texas Tommy) and it was excellent. I took 15 dogs back to work - Chicago, South Philly and Texas Tommy's. They ate them in record time. The Chicago had this fluorescent green relish on it that kind of resembled Jello - everyone was a little hesitant - but they said it was excellent. The gentleman inside was very nice as well. I don't work or live very close - but will make the trip on the weekends for lunch since they aren't open late. FYI - they take credit cards, but not Amex read more

Have to agree with most posts. Excellent hot dogs. Especially liked the Texas Chili dog. VERY friendly owner. Recommended.

Today I had a Jersey dawg, American cheese, bacon & coleslaw. It was the best hot dog I have had in a while. read more

This place is sort of hidden because it's so small and on a busy road surrounded by many other businesses. When I lived in the area I stopped in to check it out. So. Glad. I. did. The selection of hot dogs and grilled cheeses is amazing. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. Way to make simple food very exciting! Check out the menu, your mouth will start to water. The food and prices will not disappoint! read more

We were in the area visiting family and wanted something not to heavy for lunch. I've been jones'n for a dog and BOOM! Cheese Dawg knocked it out of the park. Great dogs and great grilled cheese. This was our first visit so I decided to sample the waters with just the New York (kraut, and spicy mustard) and my wife had a classic grilled cheese. Both simple and good, what you remember having your mom make on a Saturday afternoon. If you're in the area and looking for good, simple and no frills, GO!! read more

The previous reviews were spot on! This place is awesome. Food is great! Service was fantastic! Highly recommended read more

Best dogs around! I go there at least 2 times a month. Always impressed with the food and the staff. They have many different selections. They also have a challenge to eat a 2 foot, you get your name on the wall and at shirt! read more
