I highly recommend! Yesterday for lunch my son and I went and grabbed 3 Franks for $7! They were welcoming. Franks were hot and ready, service was attentive and prompt. I ordered the Frank all they was which includes chili, slaw and mustard subbed mustarded for ketchup. My son had 2 hotdogs with ketchup and we shared a cinnamon sugar pretzel, which was the prefect sweet treat. Ambiance was clean! This was a great quick lunch for us! They have chips and soda options as well. I hope you enjoy your franks as much as we did! read more

There's just something about a pit stop for a good hot dog. And this one is one I'll be thinking about for a long time. We stopped in for a Concord food crawl and I almost didn't order anything because I was already full but I'm so glad I did! This hot dog/pretzel combo is the one I never knew I needed. The hot dog was juicy with a soft bun and the homemade pretzel was so buttery. The cinnamon sugar dipped in icing was one of my favorite bites of the day. Next time I'm in concord it will be imperative to stop into this little hole in the wall for a delicious treat! read more

NJF is almost nostalgically great. It reminds me of chili dogs I had as a kid. Soft, fresh bun, an almost quiet hot dog, slathered with mustard and diced white onions, and topped with the most simple, delicious chili you can imagine. All at a perfectly affordable price. Throw in a nice Arnold Palmer and a bag of Lays potato chips and its a lunch fit for a King. And don't forget the cinnamon sugar pretzel for dessert. Nice bit of crisp on the bottom and soft and chewy on top. There's nothing fancy here, and yet it just executed with perfection. It makes sense they are only open for four hours. The folks working their butts off in there must be flat out exhausted after four hours of a line that never goes away. Guaranteed I will keep coming back. This gets five stars for doing something simple that others can't seem to get right. read more

Welcomed into warm colors, exposed brick walls & slight industrial charm. Friendly greeting & fun banter between associates while ordering. I enjoyed a warm garlic Parmesan Pretzel & pizza sauce dip. Yum! The pretzel was fresh and soft. And, the Parmesan coating was chef's kiss. My son enjoyed 2 hot dogs w/ketchup & mustard. They were good according to him. read more

I Love coming here on the weekends. My daughter and I always get a few hotdogs and salted pretzels. The pretzels are nice and soft and I feel like I can eat a ton of them. I like how you can see them twisting the pretzel dough up before cooking them up. The hotdogs and banging too. I like to go crazy on the toppings. It never takes long for the food to be ready and we usually dine inside. I'll def keep coming back. read more

DELICIOUS! We had tried to stop in another time prior and they were closed. When I tagged them they actually messaged me and apologize (Customer service, I see you). I am so glad we made it back because the hot dog was everything you could ever want. The pretzel was just the side you need with your glizzy! read more

When it comes to chowing down on a southern old fashioned hot dog, I'm your girl! A good hot dog can turn any bad day upside down and that's exactly what you'll find here at Not Just Franks. They're serving up some delicious hot dogs in a casual environment with prices that can't be beat. You can order one hot dog for $2.10 or 3 hot dogs for $6. They have several combos listed as well. Playing off the "Not Just Franks" name, they also serve delicious homemade pretzels in a couple of different flavors with dipping sauces to match. There is quite a bit of construction going on downtown Concord right now but otherwise, this is a great spot in a cute little downtown area. read more

I went in really excited to try this place, I love a good hot dog. Prices are great, can get a dog, drink and side for less than $5. But honestly once I got the dog I wasn't overly impressed. It wasn't piping hot, and I added cheese to mine, thinking it would be shredded, but it was sliced cheese. Maybe if the dog was extremely hot, that would have worked, but cold cheese on anything lukewarm just isn't good. Place has potential, but overall just an ok experience for me. read more

Made a stop at Not Just Franks while traveling from Charlotte to Winston-Salem. It was easy enough to find off of Interstate 85. I arrived right at 11 and saw them switch on the OPEN sign. The cashier was especially helpful making recommendations when I said I was a first time visitor. He recommended the number 5 which was a hot dog and a pretzel. Helluva combo. I got the Spicy Frank which was chili and spicy bbq sauce and a garlic Parmesan pretzel with pizza sauce to dip (the cashier's recommendation). He coated the pretzel with a generous amount of the garlic Parmesan dust right in front of me. The dog was tasty. The chili and the bbq sauce blended well into a sloppy joe-ish flavor. I wish the bun had been toasted but that's my only complaint. Again, the pretzel had plenty of topping and was really good when paired with the pizza dipping sauce. The pretzel is very very soft/doughy. It doesn't have that tougher texture that you find on soft pretzels at a baseball game. Not a complaint, just pointing out a difference. My experience at Not Just Franks was really good and I'll definitely visit again. read more

This is a hidden gem! I am not one to seek out a hot dog joint, but..... this place is absolutely amazing! No joke, the best hot dogs Ive ever had. All the toppings are homemade and the NY red onions and spicy barbeque sauce are ridiculously good!! You just dont find a place like this amywhere now. And the pretzels, omg delicious!! Only suggestion inhave would be to add french fries to the menu. Highly reccomend this place, Go!!!!! Thank me later read more

It is locally owned and very simple. Juat as a hot dog joint should be. Great dogs and price appropriately.

Was in town for business and had a little time before my afternoon appointment, missed lunch by about an hour and a half so I stopped in for a little something to go. Kinda cute sort of space with a few tables scattered about, the cookery is behind some glass next to the counter where you walk up and place your order - and you'll have a sack of snacks right off; my Deputy Dog and soda were ready and waiting for me while I was still picking my chips. Nothing extravagant going on here: a hot dog with some home-spun BBQ sauce, chili, chiles, and slaw, plus a drink and a treat. yea chili-barbeque!! Menu board lists a half dozen hot dog suggestions and combos or you can roll your own if you want. If I lived near I'd eat here... read more

Great food, great prices, great experience (except turn the AC on a reasonable temp, no one likes to sweat while they are eating)

For a quick, easy, cheap bite this is the place to go. Our food came out quickly and it tasted good. The line was long, but we got through the line pretty fast. It's a small local business and as a local, it's a great place to go. I got All The Way Frank add jalapeños food: 4/5 cleanliness: 3/5 price: 4.5/5 overall: 4.2/5 read more

Love this place - our go to hot dog spot! Always check hours since close early most days.

The menu is about as simple as it gets but it's the quality of the food and the people that keep their customers coming back. You can get a plain hot dog or one of about 8 different combinations. I had the intimidator with hot sauce and jalapeños as well as the German dog with mustard and kraut. Both were good and filling. Next time I need to save room for the homemade soft pretzels! read more

Not Just Franks is a hidden Gem in Concord NC! The hot and fresh pretzels come in a variety of flavors (cinnamon-sugar is my favorite) and the original is yummy too, these pretzels are dripping with buttery goodness and just the right amount of salt (watch out Auntie Annies, they give you a run for the money)! And the all beef franks with your choice of toppings are simply mouthwatering! The lines were out the door with people getting not just Franks but combos so they can have the best of both worlds! The only issue I had with NJF is they are kind of stingy with the napkins, if you don't ask for napkins you won't get any, so be sure to ask or you'll be wiping your buttery fingers on the bag (like me) or your clothes! This was my first trip here but it certainly won't be my last! read more

Not Just Franks is an order-at-the-counter place, and when I arrived at 11:45, there was already a line and plenty of people seated. As I waited, I looked around and noticed that almost everyone was eating pretzels. I now know why. Though I actually came here for hotdogs, the number of people eating pretzels made me curious enough to order one. It was easily one of the best pretzels I've eaten in my entire life. Soft, hot, fresh, and delicious. Note: these are the type with a lightly crispy exterior and sort of flat and not real puffy, not the dense doughy kind with the tough brown exterior. I also ordered 4 hot dogs. I couldn't decide what to try. Don't judge me. All-the-way: the chili was sweeter than I prefer, but the outstanding slaw more than made up for it--it was delicious and announced its presence boldly without being overbearing. German: just mustard and sauerkraut. It was positively delicious, with some of the best sauerkraut I've ever had. A lot of sauerkraut is overpoweringly sour and tough--this was not. It was delicious, tender, and perfect. Intimidator: basically a chili dog with hot sauce and jalapeños, it added a nice spice to the hotdog selections today. Delicious! Frank's Favorite: with mustard and NY red onions (which is onions in a red sauce if you don't already know that). Another great hot dog today. I don't know what brand of wiener they use at NJF, but it is very good. If you are a hotdog (or pretzel) lover, put this place on your bucket list. read more

This place is an absolute bargain for hot dogs. We tried 8 different dogs in all, but the only shame was some of them tasted so much alike it was hard to tell them apart. But the buns were steamed, soft and delicious. It's a smaller hot dog, but priced right. The toppings were generous, the service was excellent and the pretzels... oh the yummy pretzels! These are baked fresh, and are big and delicious. Definitely worth a stop whether you crave a dog, pretzel or one of each. Truly a bargain too! read more

Been eating here for two years. It is always the best hot dogs around. Very friendly staff. Even with the sidewalk and street missing, I still walk a few blocks to eat there. Great little hot dog joint. read more

Small shop on the lower end of Union Street across from the Old Court House. Very spartan but very functional. They turn out great dogs at a great price. You can get three dogs with your choice of topping (cheese extra) for $5.00 Make it a combo for a $7.15 which includes a drink and bag of chips. I had three dogs, with ketchup, mustard, onions and chili and they were perfect and made for a great lunch. The part that is not Dogs is Pretzels. They have an interesting way of increasing sales and promoting good will. For a dollar, you can buy a pretzel for the next customer that comes in. read more

My boyfriend and his family always talked about a place called Katie's Pretzels that used to exist around Chapel Hill when they were kids. They were very nostalgic about it and recently found out about this place that seemed to have the same pretzels. After a 3 hour drive, we finally arrived at Not Just Franks! Let me just begin with saying everything exceeded our expectations! We were luckily greeted by Frank, himself! It was so much fun. He was very kind, respectful, passionate and just a joy to talk to. :-) I've never had Katie's Pretzels myself, but these pretzels here were the BEST ones I've ever had! I also got a hotdog Frank made for me. I believe it had a little BBQ sauce, ketchup, mustard, chili, and jalapeños. It was VERY good. The combination of sweet and spicy was perfect. We had the best experience we could've asked for after the drive! We're making it a tradition to come back every year and look forward to all the future trips. Thank you!! :-) read more

Not just Franks is very near and dear to my heart. Located in the heart of downtown Concord, this location not only serves up some of the best hot dogs around, but they have a hot pretzel that melts in your mouth. For those that have a urge for a hot pretzel either amply garnished in salt, or other toppings such as cinnamon sugar, this is the place to come while experiencing the historic Center of Concord living. They also have a feature that is unique to them call paying it forward, which is patrons donating hot pretzels to those who otherwise can't afford it. Hats off to not just Franks, and I'll continue to be a willing contributed to your paying it forward program. read more

Works and owner are very nice! I love this place! Great prices and freshness of the food is amazing!

Was looking for some yummy hot dogs to try and this place did not disappoint! We walked in 15 min before they were going to close and were expecting some disgruntled looks ( as we tend to get more often than not if we did this in California) but to my pleasant surprise, no one batted an eye and instead offered us some smiles and patience and we looked over the menu. The moment we ordered, they were fulfilling each item, which was cool, because by the time we paid, everyone in our party had their food in hand. We acknowledged that we came right when they were about to close but they still offered us to sit in the dining room to eat our food and said we could take our time. So nice! We ordered two All the Way Franks and the Intimidator. Plus, each of the hot pretzels they offer: garlic Parmesan, lightly Salted and cinnamon sugar. We salad got the nacho cheese dip and icing dip. The dog were all beef Franks and delicious!!!!! The buns were soft and slightly sweet and the toppings were just tasty! Not to mention the pretzels.... warm and soft yet chewy. So perfect!!! We will definitely be back here very soon!!! read more

Came on a recommendation and I'll say that the look and feel of the establishment took me back to my childhood. Being able to get and old fashioned hot dog, and sweet tea was iconic. I got 3 hotdogs, 1 was the Chicago the other 2 had chili and slaw. Delicious. I also tried a freshly made pretzel that was garlic Parmesan flavor. Such a surprising extra.
