Wow, what a cool place in Mt Pleasant! I went out of my way to visit based on a recommendation and was so happy I did. The space is casual and the menu is really cool! I like the fact that you can get an adult beverage with your dog. The service was very speedy! I tried a Chicago dog and a detroit coney and was very pleased with the dogs! Give them a try! read more

First time ever trying Dog Central in Mt Pleasant Michigan. Upbeat little place, it seems like a fun hangout for the college crowd. I spent a few minutes just looking at the massive menu options. So many variation of toppings. The staff was top notch and so friendly. He asked if it was my first time, and thanked me for trying them out. He then noticed my Army Veteran hat and not only thanked me for my service but gave me a side of fries. Speaking of the fries, thick cut and cooked well. Very good. Todays choice was the "Kansas City Dog" sourkraut, swiss, thousand island. Very good. The hotdog itself has a nice crisp bite. I am about to try the "Goober Dog", wish me luck! read more

Horrible customer service!! I heard good things about this place. I drove 25 minutes to try it out, when I was a few minutes away I figured I'd call the order in so it would be ready when I got there. The lady picked up the phone and I said id like to place an order, she said no they won't take my order because they close in 15 minutes! Wtf?! I will never go to this place again, and will tell everyone I know to stay away! People like that don't deserve your money.. piss poor customer service. read more

Alright let's get into it shall we? this is a very nice little place right in the down town area of Mt pleasant. This little place has amazing dogs, they use Dearborn brand with natural casing, they had the perfect snap and were juicy along with many topping options. The Dc cheese curds were hand cut and beer battered, also amazing. Fries beer battered fresh fast and affordable! A family size tray is $7.45 if my memory serves correctly. My Daughter (who has barely ever done food challenges) got the DC challenge. Three 1ft long coney dogs with your choice of toppings on a bed of fries and topped with a volcano of onion rings, this challenge was covered by man vs. food a time back, neither my daughter nor him could finish but they both got close, my daughter was 2 dogs down and half the fries and man Vs. food (Casie) had a handful of fries left. Service was fast and very friendly (shocked at my daughter's appetite as well) you can tell that their personalities come alive at night. Bathrooms were spotless, smelled good and even had flowers! Also i would like to add they save alcoholic beverages as well so you can have a beer or mixed drink with your meal. read more

Oh, dog central your fries were absolutely delicious but your dogs were average!! A ton of options to add to your hot dog but what good is that when the hot dog doesn't stand out. Ordered the popper dog and the toppings were pretty decent but the hot dog itself was cold and bland. I was quite dissatisfied to say the least. Service was poor. One of our orders was forgotten about and we weren't greeted at the register! read more

Alright y'all the dank reviewer came all the way from Cali to try this place since I've heard so much about it. Nah I'm jk I'm here for a graduation, but anyways yea i came here after drinking idk how much tequila so yo boy was torn. However, I was in the mood for some glizzy so came to check it out. On the real, it was nothing wild of a glizzy but it was solid! Solid options of glizzys and quite creative of all the types of glizzy. I had some German style glizzy which was good but could be better. Everyone else's glizzys were exquisite tho. I remember those fry's were on point hitting me on all cylinders or maybe it was the alcohol idk homie. The vibe at the place was chillin I would say the dudes working were widdit I would say. The place is crackin at night and it's open late so that's dope. Anyways, my dank review for this place will be a good 7.2/10 read more

First off the food is absolutely amazing and have great customer service. The fries are cooked to perfection. Seth and Joe always are warm and welcoming when I walk in there and it makes me feel at home. read more

The location is amazing, the atmosphere is perfect for hot dogs and beer. I'm not sure what I expected going in, but I did expect to walk away finishing a meal. I went with a friend and neither of us ended up finishing. I ordered the hot dog with Fritos, which I thought came with chili but I seemed to have a gotten a hot dog drowned in nacho cheese. My friend went along about her coleslaw on her hot dog being very sour and ruining the whole entree. The beer battered fries are the best I've had in a long time, which is the only reason they got 2 stars. Maybe I will try again, but highly doubt it. Update: As the owner tried to reply to my review, this is an update as I feel if I order food I expect for it to be given to me. This place not only problem was nacho cheese, it was overall not good to me. It's a plain cheap hot dog, with a variety of toppings to cover it up. That's why this place received 2 stars, awful. If you want to get your food, taste it only to complain to the staff there it's completely your choice, but me personally no I like my food served correct. read more

'Ello chaps! Once upon a time, in the land of Mount Pleasant, the end of a long night on the town, enjoying adult beverages with fellow students and friends, ended at the only place open that late. Taco Bell. Boy, has Dog Central filled a void that we never knew we had. There is a huge variety of hot dogs and toppings you can get here and it tastes oh so good after a few drinks. Sober up with some heavy, greasy, hot dogs and onion rings then walk your way home. read more

The ultimate lasts night hangout. They have every type of hot dog creation possible. Not ready for the night to end? They have mixed drinks and a variety of bottles. Dog central also carries ice cream. This restaurant reminded me of a fast food restaurant with alcohol available.

Don't waste your time if you want a good hot dog. There is no redeeming quality about the product sold at Dog Central. Cold and uninspiring read more

I was initially a confounded (so many options). I almost wasn't going to get anything but was suggested a "surprise" dog, basically chef's choice. Of course I was nervous but indeed told them I have faith in their experience. When I found my surprise it was a "Kraut" never had tried or even seen it. I'm not too keen on trying new foods but especially made ones mean a lot. I ate something new and it was delicious! My family loved theirs as well. Definitely awesome food and good experience. read more

Clean dining area with a good amount of seating. Big selection of hot dogs to choose from. The menu was very helpful as it was very detailed as to what each hot dog contained. Staff was real friendly and helpful as well. Im from Southwest Michigan and was in the area for the first time for the day. It was my first time there and I was going to get the cowboy dog but I saw the board closest to the counter and saw the Cuban dog had an asterisk next to it. I asked if that was the best and the guy taking my order said not necessarily and recommended I try the new item which was the po' boy. Great recommendation. Glad I got it. Their fries are good as well. They won best fries in Central Michigan in 2013. Not so recent but they weren't disappointing. Ordered a small size and it turned out to be a lot so that was awesome. Will definitely go back next time I'm in the area. read more

Ayo dog central. Great hot dogs. Truly. Mid compared to where they come from, A+ for mount pleasant. That said, add an additional worker for your 10:00-2:00AM shift. Seriously. Two or three guys should not have to take care of 20 people. You need someone to clean tables after drunk people leave. Again, great hot dogs, better fries. Great food, but service could be a little better, and it's not the current shift peoples' fault. You have a rush time, and y'all know it. Act like it. Good food. Again. Good food. read more

Oh so yummy! I am not from Michigan so I was told while in town I had to come here! I got chili cheese fries and the loaded dog and oh was it loaded. The dog has chili, cheese, french fries and strip of bacon (I added the mustard). The service was great and the place was clean! read more

Went in with a friend. We tried to order and the cook threw a fit when we wanted 12 hotdogs. The guy at the register was equally as an impressive and rude. There was no one in front of us in line and no one behind us. My friend politely told the guy at the register that he was happy to wait, as long as it would take. How does a restaurant that specializes in hotdogs, not have 12 hotdogs available within a reasonable amount of time? I've never seen such rude and unprofessional workers in any restaurant setting and that says a lot, because I eat out at least 10 times per week. I will never go back! read more

I walked down to get some dogs to go around 3:30 pm. Buns were stale and hot dogs were chewy. Nobody else was in the store so I don't know why they couldn't have made something fresh instead of whatever was sitting around since lunch. Pretty disappointed because I was really craving a hot dog. read more

Very clean and very good hot dogs friendly service definitely coming back. The best dog there is the macdaddydog

Amazing place to eat. Great staff, awesome chili, and the best hotdogs around. If you come to Mount Pleasant or live here and never been. I highly recommended it. Since moving here on May 1st I've been there at least twice and week. read more

Dog Central - Amazing! - Hot Dogs Near Me - Mount Pleasant, Michigan

If you like great local food (and hot dogs) then Dog Central is the place to go. From fun inventive dogs like the peanut butter pickle Gover dog to the classics like Chicago or Detroit style. And of course there claim to fame, the Macdaddy, bacon and mac. With over 20 different dogs you can't go wrinThe prices are fair and the atmosphere is friendly. Paul the owner has obviously poured his heart into the menu and business and it shows. Personally my favorite is the Mad Dog. Their fries are award winning and they offer vegetarian options too! read more

I LOVE dog central. The people who work there are so friendly and prompt. I always get the Detroit dog; it gives me my fix of a coney dog but (don't tell metro Detroit) it's better. read more

I was recently taken to this place for lunch. Their hot dogs are fantastic with interesting combinations. I think they prices are a little high, but it is a local place... so it might be why. Fries are decent and service was really good. The actual eating area could use some work, but it is a local college type place, so I am good with it. They also have eating challenges which is interesting! read more

Eat here or you will regret it the rest of your life! The hot dogs are amazing! They aren't just dogs piled with a bunch of stuff, each ingredient is delicious in and of itself so when it goes on the hotdog it's perfect! read more

The hot dog was better than expected! The chili was delicious. Only complaint is that the bun was a little thin on the bottom so chili began to leak through. Other than that, amazing food, service is very friendly, and the atmosphere is neat. read more

Jeff, I believe you had a bad dog or you just are one. Dog central is not only a great place to eat but also shows CMU students that anything is possible after graduating( the owner Paul McFall opened Dog Central quickly after graduating). They don't just have beef hot dogs but they also carry veggie dogs. The buns are steamed and can be substituted for a poppy seed bun. I have gone in several times and they have even offered pretzels buns as an option. Dog central not only carries your every day hot dogs such as ketchup, mustard and onion but they also carry gourmet dogs. My favorite gourmet dog would be the goober which consist of shredded pickle, chili, crushed fritos, and peanut butter. The odd combination makes this hot dog number one on my list as well as many others, I guess you just have to try it. but as far as Jeff goes, Im not sure what the University of Michigan has to do with hot dogs or Dog central. Last time I checked Lafayette was over 2 hours away and the baseball parks don't carry gourmet hot dogs. I hope everyone gives dog central a shot! read more

Kind of expensive but the dogs are worth it, so many variations and pretty good quality hot dogs. It's close to my office so convenient.

Love the atmosphere and the tasty wieners! There is a very extensive menu! I got the Loaded Dog and my friend got the MacDaddy Dog. They were great and I we will definitely be back! read more
