The building itself is nice and clean but they only have one table inside and no outdoor seating. We didn't mind though and turned it into a drive in experience eating in the car. The service was friendly and it being a locally owned small business was a huge plus. They take card and cash which was also nice. The hot dogs were fantastic and huge. I assumed I would eat 2 but only made it through 1.5 before getting full. We tried the Daredevil Dog which had the jalapeños and was good. The Sleepy Creek Slaw Dog had a really good chili and the coleslaw wasn't watery or soggy so it added a nice crunch. My favorite of the three we tried. The last was the New York dog which I did with sauerkraut and it was solid, not quite like the dog in manhattan which go heavier on the onion sauce but still very nice. The sweets were also really really good. We got two brownies which got devoured. The Dubai Sunday was very nice and they didn't skimp on the pistachio sauce. The Samoa sundae was also very good. All in all, we both really enjoyed this place and will be back. The food is affordable and tasty and the service is friendly.

After spending an afternoon at the discovery Museum, a few blocks away, we popped in for lunch…read more It's a quaint little corner store, right next to the Maryland theater. The venue can be overwhelming, with lots of choices. One section of the menu was dedicated to hotdogs, one section is dedicated to non-hotdog entrées, and also Appetizers, desserts, and drinks. The dogs here are amazing! I loved the Chicago dog, but when I had my a bite of the Big Mac dog I wished I got that one too.Then we had the pastrami dog making it a three dog night. The fries are also especially delicious because they are crunchy and battered. My little one had a kids meal that came with fries and he was forced to share. With any hotdog, you get your choice of beef,/chicken, or veggie. We went beef all the way, and it was a great choice. The dogs are split and grilled on a flat top, and maintain all of their juicy goodness. And the toppings just enhanced everything. If you're a hotdog purist, ketchup and relish or mustard and onions would also make for perfect dogs. The staff was friendly and super accommodating to a feral toddler. For three hotdogs, a kids meal, I need rings, and drinks, the $40 price felt like a bargain. Great quality and value.

Ok so we went there on Saturday over the past weekend. It was about 5:30. I got a Chicago dog,…read morewhich was excellent, the all beef. Husband got the foot long coney dog and my son got a sausage with some kind of sauce on it. I eat about 2 hot dogs a year so when I say it was delicious, I mean it. Now the bad. My 4 year old grandson got grilled cheese. It took forever for the food to come out. Like forever forever. He ate like nothing bc he drank his whole drink while we were waiting as we had been at the park for a couple of hours beforehand. I know, not unusual for a little guy. That's not the real problem. I got a side of onion rings and it was almost $5 for like 6 onion rings. Ketchup in little packets... not cost efficient and annoying for us. Had to track down waitress to get husband a second beer and me a first. There was no air conditioning and it was so hot in there!! AND THE WORST THING OF ALL... WHEN THE BILL CAME THERE WAS A 20% INCLUDED GRATUITY FOR "LARGE PARTY", which was not discussed. First of all, it was 4 ppl. That is not a large party. Second of all, this was not mentioned by staff. I see this sometimes with a group of 8 or more and it is usually noted in a menu somewhere or mentioned. But 4 people is not a large party. My husband and I both worked in the restsurant industry in our younger years. We get it, servers need to be taken care of, but come on. BEWARE. I would have gone back for that hot dog even with the sloooowww service and just not gotten a side, but that automatic gratuity thing is ridiculous. Customer lost.

My wife's family is from Rochester, NY and they make a "hot sauce" which seemed similar to this. To me it tasted like watered down ground beef/"hot sauce", lacking the spices I'm used to. The hot dogs didn't seem to be anything special. The fries were crispy and delicious while the vanilla coke was apparently the highlight of the meal.

Don and Kim Wise are wonderful people with a great operation! I saw their retrofitted horse…read moretrailer at the South Mountain Fair and was very intrigued. That and their menu was not insanely inflated as many food trucks are. I ordered 9 hot dogs and they were all reasonably priced and very tasty. Their homemade Cole slaw was fantastic, especially on a hot dog! Macaroni and Cheese could use more cheese IMO, but was still good and I loved seeing it in a crockpot. Most of their food is homemade, with food from local farmers in the Shippensburg area. I was glad to support them and give e my business, and to give this review. Another nice touch was they had coolers out with drinks, and if you bought one they told you to just go grab it. They also had lots of sauces laid out. Honestly this isn't a chain or expensive soulless experience as many food trucks are. You get homemade food and an experience like you would at a potluck or from your grandparents. Can you put a price on that? If you see them, tell them Scott sent you.

The two people working were really friendly, and the woman taking orders was happy to give recommendations. I went with the Belly Buster (see photo). The flavor was solid, but the bun was cheap and turned mushy immediately, which honestly ruined the overall experience. I'm giving them 22 out of 25 stars, a solid B+. With better-quality rolls that can actually hold the toppings, it would easily be an A.

We also learned that the ingredients here are locally sourced which is why they are so good. The place is cute, homey, and spacious. They have a few different rooms. They also have a jukebox and I played some Dolly Patron and Miley Cyrus. It was a hit! If you're passing the town of Strasburg heading back to DC, this place is worth a stop!

They have many other dogs, even vegetarian dogs. This was the "Big Trailer", so we could also get baked beans, with just a little spiciness that builds up. The big trailer also has Black Angus smash burgers, veggie burgers, chicken sandwiches, mozzarella sticks, chicken nuggets, fries, pasta salad, and Italian donuts. Delicious!

I subbed the relish for chimichurri (love that there are solid options), and it was the right move. The chimichurri added a bright, herby punch that cut perfectly through the richness of the bacon and the juicy hot dog. What really impressed me was... the bread. This wasn't your standard flimsy hot dog bun it had structure, body, and actually rose to the challenge of holding everything together without falling apart. That alone makes a huge difference. Overall, this was delicious, indulgent, and thoughtfully put together. I'll definitely be back to try more combinations.
