    While visiting the area recently for the holidays I made sure to dip in and grab a few dogs. Let's face it, Nu-Way is a local Middle Georgia staple and has been so for over 100 years so I had to swing by and get my fix. This location isn't quite as old as others and doesn't have as much character in terms of the environment. But the food is still spot on and delicious. All went well during my visit and I left very satisfied. Of note though, as of this writing you can't leave a tip on a credit card. So, you might want to bring cash with you. I came a long way for a Nu-Way and it was worth it!

    I have been a long been a fan of Nu-Way, I have been coming here for at least fifteen years. Of course, that is just a blip on the over hundred year history that Nu-Way has been on business, but for me, it has been an enjoyable long standing culinary relationship, one that I hope will continue for decades to come. Nu-Way is a great go to for the simple, unpretentious gastronomic wonder of hot dogs, burgers, and fries. Again, nothing fancy, but a feast as viable in terms of favorite foods as any high end dining experience. In fact, a hot dog or a burger has a stronger connection to my growing up in Jersey than any fine dining establishment. I remember my father taking me for hot dogs as a child, stopping for a late night meal with friends as a young adult after a night out, stuff like that. The food here is great, a must try if you are in the area. The hot dogs are the stand out, but all the menu is great.

    The bright red weiners and the unique chili are the star of the show here.

    You can travel all around the world and a hamburger is pretty much a hamburger. The same can not be said for hot dogs. They are regional and often have surprising toppings or methods of preparation. There aren't really any surprising toppings offered at Nuway. Chili, cheese, onions, ketchup, mustard, slaw are pretty standard. What makes these so special is the quality of the individual ingredients. Those blazing red weiners. That dark,oily chili. The fine dice of the onion. It all comes together (in whatever combination you prefer) to become something very special and unique to Middle-Georgia.

    Best hot dogs ever. I go here every time I'm in town visiting. Love the "All the Way" (chili, cheese, mustard, & onion) dogs and one with their coleslaw on them as well. The fries were fresh and hot and delicious too. I always love their flaky ice which you can't seem to find anywhere but here. I've been eating these since I was a child and I've never found a better hot dog. I was sorry to hear the original in Macon burned down as we always made a special trip there to enjoy both a great hotdog and some nostalgia. Hopefully they can rebuild it and try to get close to the original. Keep on making them the same way and happy 100th anniversary!

    3 for 2 Day at Nu Way! Slaw dog and Chili dogs with fries!

    Nu Way Weiners are considered the best in these parts and for good reason! Slaw Dogs and Chili Dogs are the way to go but don't miss out on the MegaBurger too! This location is the only one I know of with table service. Both the food and the service is great.

    Nu-Way has the best hotdogs in town.

    A local classic. I have so many memories of this place with my grandparents when I was a kid. Hope they stay open forever.

    Located only in middle Georgia, Nu Way is an icon, much like T Skulls, Crickets, or the Piggly Wiggly on Houston Rd.

    This was my first time eating here. I already knew I wanted a wrap. I got the fried option. I asked…read morethat the sauce be put on the side but requested the cayenne ranch instead. I did dip into the ranch to taste the flavor and it was really good. The ingredients on the wrap were fresh and the shell was very soft. I think this would be a great selection if there was an option to have the wrap grilled to give it some color and a little bit of crunch. 4.5/5

    First let me say thank you to William, very professional and helpful...Luke was very patient and…read morehelpful too, and Kayla our server was awesome as well. Thanks for the outstanding customer service on such a busy day. The establishment was very clean and tidy, happy smiling faces all so helpful, attentive, and kind. The food: we ordered the tender Mac bowl meal, the 3&3 meal with fries and a side of fried pickles, My son said he loved the tender Mac bowl meal it was great! The fried pickles were a little too salty for his liking so he told William and he swapped them out for fried mushrooms. I had the 3&3 the Tenders are phenomenal the wings were tough and I wouldn't order those again but the tenders and the Spicy Honey BBQ and the Cayenne Ranch were magnificent I highly recommend that. And they have Cherry Coke as a beverage option with pebble ice so that is always A plus in my book. If you're in the area give them a try.

    There's something to be said about a place that I continue to return to but haven't reviewed yet…read more That means they're doing something right and I have no complaints. Wheelchair accessible is a major plus. Clean establishment and restrooms. Staff is always friendly and offer conversation as well as food recommendations. We typically like the three meat and sides plate. It's enough food for two people. I've had every combination possible. I most enjoy their jalapeño cheddar sausage and chicken. My husband loves the ribs. I also love getting the bbq sandwich off the kids menu for something smaller. Get the baked beans and potato salad. Slaw is vinegar based. Brisket chili is another good option for a small upcharge. Everything is so good! And served hot. You also get complimentary cheddar biscuits for an appetizer. Drinks include a full bar and coke products. Patio is dog friendly so bring fido along!

    3.6 so rounding up to 4…read more I have to be fair, it was good, just didn't make me want to put it on my last meal list. The food is good ish, but it wasn't as much as an emotional experience finding a mom and pop spot in the back woods that has amazing bbq. The sides were ok, this is where the mom and pop locations shine. Corn was ok and had better Mac. The meat was good but the brisket was dry. Maybe I had just an old or bad slice. This could depend of when you come and will give them a pass on that. Found it over priced to be honest. I enjoyed it, sadly I don't think I will be back. If your are around one and wanted to enjoy some bbq sure come here. But I think you can find much better in Georgia.
