I LOVE this place so much, this is where I just had lunch for my birthday! I'm obsessed with their malts, their shrimp & chicken baskets, and their pork loin sandwich. Such a friendly environment too! read more

Larry's is an institution, the kind where you don't say the full name of the restaurant and everyone knows what you are referring to. Kind of like a Brazilian soccer star. We are all on a first name basis. Larry's is hot dogs and ice cream, the soft kind with lots of sprinkle options. Every other item is a supporting cast member. Lots of folks go for the chili dog footlong version. I'm not against it, just more than I can navigate in the car as the drive through is the default for many at Larry's. So if you are on your way home and don't care about the stains on your shirt, get the chili sauce, raw onions and cheddar cheese. Otherwise maybe just old school it with a single mustard or ketchup topping. There is an ample dining room and for my family it holds a story as my father and my son would stop there for a dog, an ice cream and a story between after school events each Wednesday. Definitely imprinted memories for both of them. read more

I got to the center of my footlong and there was a long white hair I will go back because it is a staple in Athens for the shakes of course but now I'm scared to eat the footlongs I've ate for 50 years They need to wear hair nets I don't want to eat grandma's hair This would have never happened if Larry was still in charge he worked right behind that counter every day and watched everything Miss you Larry read more

Came here as I was craving a hot dog on my trip. Highly recommend giving it a try! While I ordered a traditional plain hotdog, there are many choices to have! Staff were very friendly, they have both lots of indoor seating (you can also order inside) and a drive through if you feel like just stopping by. Food is very quick to come out, within 3 minutes of the order being placed. In total, 2 foot-long hotdogs and chips cost under $10. read more

First time eating at Larry's Dawg House. Grabbing a quick lunch during my field time in Athens. This is a quaint little spot located near the hospital. It has a large dining room and simple menu of hot dawgs and burgers mostly. I order the cheeseburger since it was recommended by the staff and some onion rings with Cajun fries and an unsweet ice tea. Total cost: $10.57. The staff are friendly and the place clean. I can see why local would frequent this spot. read more

Today, on our trip west to Covington, KY, we stopped at Larry's Dawg House for lunch. My wife had the cheeseburger and I had the foot long hot dog combo. Everything was very good. For dessert, we each had a small twist cone. The cashier, without asking, gave us the Senior discount on both the lunch and dessert purchases. The friendly service was excellent. read more

Just ok. Footlong wiener was very thin & not exciting at all. Maybe my expectations were too high? Cheap prices though. Overrated. According to me. read more

Larry's Dawg House - Hot Dog - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Athens, Ohio

Larry's Dawg House is another locally owned business in Athens. It's best known for hot dogs. They have ice cream too. It's away from the campus so it's mostly locals. They get busy especially in good weather. It gets the busiest at lunch. Most of the customers here seem to be locals. There are still lots of students. It's a popular place for them to work at. The menu is filled with typical diner food like hamburgers and hot dogs. It also has desserts like ice cream. The slushies are a good way to cool off. It has a drive thru for even more convenience. Students will probably drive there, so just be ready for a very long line. The inside is another option though. read more

Got a banana split arctic swirl, really good :) My parents got a turtlette and a mint chocolate chip milkshake, they liked theirs. Seems clean enough however there were flies that kept flying around and annoying us read more

Larry's Dawg was a staple for me when I was staying in Athens. They conveniently have a small drive thru and the food here is so affordable. To sum things up, they serve simple and delicious food. I've tried their hamburgers, hot dogs, fries, and onion rings. I can honestly say that I've thoroughly enjoyed everything. I especially liked their burgers and cajun fries. From what I see on their website, they are still opened for takeout, drive thru, and delivery! read more

My wife and I stopped in for lunch on our most recent trip... SO GOOD! We were going to get ice cream, but lunch filled us up. We got burgers and fries, and everything was freshly made and served fast! No complaints, really clean place, too. Fries were pre-packaged Simplot shoestrings, but for me were fried perfectly... crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside. We will stop by next time through Athens! read more

Athens local classic. Nothing fancy just good food! They had a nice crowd for lunch. You can order and eat in or there is a drive through. I had a single cheeseburger and coleslaw. The burger was delicious and the coleslaw was a small serving but tasty. They also had hot dogs, corn dogs, fish, chicken and all sorts of shakes. Good stuff! read more

Best dog in Ohio. Stop here every time we pick up or drop off our student. Best foot long Dog on our trips

Ordered through DoorDash. Everything was wrong. Everything! Hotdogs are the girth of a pencil. Chilli sauce runny. Fries weren't bad. Neither were the milkshakes. But literally how thin those dogs gonna be?!?!????! And DoorDash only gave me a 2.23$ credit! So I WON'T be going back! read more

~~~Ben's Crazy Reviews~~~ Can you be in love with a building that makes burgers and (hot) dogs? If you can, then I am, and if I am then I guess I'll let my parents know I found my true one future. Here's the story!!! I'm an OU alumnus (two thousand twelve) and me and my good classmates are spending NYE in town. We all needed one bu (a fancy alternative to an American Classic) to put us in the mood. And boy! We were all happy to realize it was as grand of a taste experience as one would remember. Food was pure perfection. Drinks weren't of this world. Staff knew what it meant to treat people with the nurturing care of a mother (this is if you think of mothers as loving women). Simply amazin' 10/10 which rounds down to 5/5. Eat here or be sad. NOTICE: It'd be important to note that we were all very carsick upon arrival. And Larry didn't do anything to further the imbalance of our intestine. Unreal. read more

Larry's Dawg House - 8 men enjoying the time - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Athens, Ohio

This is a mom and pop hot dog shop near my girlfriend's home town. We stopped by after a trip to New Orleans on a Sunday. Open until 9pm most nights. This is exactly as you'd expect. They have dogs, burgers, fries, ice cream and soft drinks. They do a few things really well. I had a footlong chilli dog with cheese, Cajun fries and a soft drink (medium). She had a 6" dog with regular fries and water. It was under $10. The food arrived quickly and was freshly made, a great tasting chilli and cheese on the dog, with a light Cajun seasoning on the fries. It was so nice we decided to test out their ice cream swirls. I ordered a Heath (which is basically a dime/daim bar for the Europeans reading this) and she went for the m&m one. These were like the Blizzards served at Dairy Queen - or, let's say a "Super McFlurry", so sweet and a perfect end to the meal. Well blended with chunks of the respective candy in the ice cream. Wonderful staff, sweet location and loved locally. Next time I'm anywhere nearby, I'm going back. read more

I ate at Larry's for the first time a few weeks back and it definitely wasn't bad. I got the foot long slaw dog, a large cajun fries, and a chocolate malt. The hot dog was really nothing impressive. If you want a really great dog, I recommend O' Betty's. The fries were good, but weren't very 'cajun' at all. Now, the malt... that's a different story altogether. That chocolate malt was amazing and I would recommend going there for it alone. The place is actually in a nice little building a bit off of the beaten path. It was really clean and the employees were all polite and attentive. The customer base seemed to be a lot of older couples and families, but I was there on a Sunday. If your purpose is to avoid the bustle of the college crowds, this is your spot. So, I just want to be clear that Larry's isn't bad by any stretch of the imagination, but a much better dog and fries can be had at O' Betty's. But if you want a malt, hit up Larry's read more

Had a weirdly normal foot long with a cheese slice laid on it , wasn't even melted. Cajun fries were more like an Arby's fry flavor . Corn dog was solid. It's cheap eats so i can't really be sad . read more

Like always, the milkshakes were delicious. We were very disappointed with our footlongs. The hotdogs tasted like they had soaked in water all night. The onion rings and mushrooms we ordered were good. The quantity of the mushrooms didn't match the price. read more

Fiancé and I both ordered the footlong combos. Food was delicious, served fast and reasonably priced. The chili cheese tots were great and normally I don't care for nacho cheese sauce - the chili just has such a great flavor. read more

As a delivery worker we are able to eat many new places. Often by the suggestion of customers of which we just delivered. Larry's Dawg House was hands down the place to go to get a Hot Dog per our work stop. I will say this Dawn House should known as the main house, offering a fantastic experience. With their Wonderful staff, and the the Dogs that do not disappoint. If we ever have the shot to drive the 80 plus miles away from our store we will come again. read more

We stopped at Larry's when we were in Athens last Sunday and enjoyed a midday meal. My husband's family grew up in the area and he remembers Larry's very well from his childhood. He, of course, would give the restaurant 5 stars. I, however, found the food to be just so so. I would rather have a grilled hot dog instead of steamed any day. The hamburger I had this past visit was good but nothing to write home about. The fries were quite the same. We did enjoy the casual atmosphere and the steamed hot dog won by 2 year old over too. What really caught my eye this time were there ice cream cakes. I drooled just looking at them. I did not, however, get a taste. My husband's milk shake was very tasty and if I wasn't the nice wife that I am I would have drank it all myself. Maybe I'll stick to just the ice cream next time! I'm sure we will be back. read more
