Reid's - Hot Dogs Near Me - Lockport, New York

I would still say this is a reasonable place to stop for lunch, but it is not as cheap as it once was... but what is? I would say the value has dropped to though. The biggest disappointment is the beloved "sauce" has changed. The factory that used to make it is out of business, and whatever they are using as a replacement is not the same at all. I would still go there, but it's not the same. Service is okay, but they don't memorize your order anymore and you sometimes run into a shift that is more chatty with themselves than the customers, more often than not they are good. Pro tip, if you go in the winter, you have to order outside, but there is a small indoor seating area. It's nothing fancy, but it gets the job done. The ambiance matches the prices. read more

Yuck. Worst hot dogs, no decent dining area. I feel like I was in a storage room. Boxes of supplies all around. Not a good experience. I won't go back . Yuck read more

Truly amazing, this is a throwback to my youth! It's been over a decade since I've been back! I truly miss this place. They have the best hot dogs I've ever had, their unique sauce - truly out of this world! My favorite hot dog - I can't say, Red Hot or White Hot I love then both. Another over the top experience, the Milk Shakes! A one of a kind! Oh the memories of coming here Saturday evenings after church softball! If for nothing else getting a quick bite to eat with friends grab a drink, life was so easy back then! read more

It's been there since the 40s pretty good Sahlen hotdogs and a nice burger but the dog that I fed my burger to got sick so I probably won't come back. It was staffed by young people and everyone of them called the food Hamburgs and cheeseburgs- it was ridiculously hick sounding. read more

Quick update now accepting cards! Food is still great! Haven't been by in quite some time and the prices are still unreal. Always a favorite! read more

Food was delicious as always! Service was quick even though there were lots of people in line. read more

A basic hamburger/hot dog stand cooking up tasty quick bites that are great for a summer day. I really liked the fries and the burger, which is nice and thin cut for a lighter lunch. read more

Vacationing in the area and drove by this place. Burger and special sauce was amazing; red hot dog was delicious; I asked for the fries to be well done and they were crispy and tasty; the chocolate shake was thick and yummy! The workers were friendly and the service was so fast! We would definitely come back!!!! read more

What an awesome treat. The hotdogs were very good. The fries were good. The service was good. Everyone was very kind. After ordering we sat in the shade and enjoyed our meal. read more

Terrible service, while waiting for food the kid was literally eating people's fries off of the orders turned around and was chewing in our faces. I rarely go to Reid's anymore because the food quality has gone down tremendously. The kids they have working there are rude little shits read more

This place was bustling with customers, and it was good to see them doing well. The banana milkshake I got was made from the fake banana candy flavoring and not from real bananas. The white hots are my favorite, and the fries and onion rings were good too. This place isnt exactly cheap, but definitely a good place to experience classical American summer cuisine. read more

I would have a photo to upload but the food was soo good I forgot to take a pic. I got two cheeseburgers that's it and it was fantastic! Such a great inexpensive lunch. Whole thing cost me 6 bucks for a drink and two cheeseburgers and it tasted better than McDonald...definitely a must try and their shakes had a ton of different flavors! I haven't tried but everyone there was talking about it read more

I love Reid's. Cheap prices and great burgers, rings and shakes. Ice cream place next store is a nice dessert spot as well.

Great food, service, and pricing! Lots of outdoor, pet friendly seating. The onion rings were hand made and super fresh. The milkshakes were creamy! read more

One of the Family's all time favorite spots. Haven't been here in a while but man was it worth every min getting here lol. We usually get hot dogs, hamburgers, fries and onion rings and Reid's sauce for everything to follow. Not sure what the sauce consists of but it's amazing on just about anything. The offer a variety of items today we went for the usual and added the fish sandwich as well that was a good choice. The place was very busy upon arrival, but the service was quick especially for the amount of food we ordered. All in all we had a great time the quality was great as always and the service was swift and fabulous. I would highly recommend you try some Reid's before summer is up. And just a side note... The shakes are Delicious! read more

Reid's is one of those places that will outlive us all. It's a great little place to stop for ice cream or some dogs and burgers at an affordable price. The staff is all younger people but in my experience they have always been kind, friendly and helpful to all customers. The food is good and the cheese fries are bangin, I will always come here if I need a little pick me up or want a nice afternoon out in Lockport read more

If you are from Lockport or any of the surrounding areas, chances are you know about Reid's. Named after the family that owns it, it is a Lockport institution and has been for many many years. Everyone knows someone who works there or has worked there in the past. It seems like Half of my graduating class worked here at some point in high school. Why I love this place and what you should know: -Though they are a drive in sort of spot, they are open year round. Eat inside, outside at the picnic tables, in your car, on your bike, while walking along the canal, however you want really. -they are cash only but they do have an ATM inside -they have the thickest milkshakes of your life and a regular is only $2.50 -the staff is super friendly and super quick. -they have red hots (for me) and white hots (for the hubby) -their prices are crazy low. Came by today and presented two milkshakes, a red hot, a grilled cheese, a cheeseburger and fries. $12. For real. -their food is always hot, fresh, and fast -want dessert? Their ice cream shop is next door. If you're in Lockport looking for a great lunch or dinner, this is your spot. My only warning- beware of the seagulls! read more

I came here at the suggestion of a friend of a friend. I was going to give this place three stars but I gave it a fourth star because of their speedy service. A friend and I came here today after a hike at Golden Hill State Park in Barker, NY. It's in Lockport on Lake Avenue, just off of Clinton Street. You drive in, park, walk to the front of the business and place your order and then pay. My black raspberry shake and my friend's Mountain Dew were don't first, so I walked it to my car and handed the items to my friend. When I got back, the food items were already done. I had ordered two double cheeseburgers and an order of fries. All of the items came to $13.67. The employees weren't overly kind or outgoing but I was really happy with the expedience of my order. The burger and fries were pretty good. I had my food eaten, by the time I thought to take a picture. While heading towards the exit, I noticed that there is an ice cream shop next door. I'd love to check it out soon. read more

My dad grew up here in the 60's and moved away in the 80's to Michigan when he married my mom. But we always have to stop here when we come back to visit. And it's always great dogs and burgers. I'm now 30 and still enjoy going myself when I come back. read more

My parents used to bring my brother and I here as kids and pre-teens all the time and then following high school sports games, everyone on our team bus always wanted drive to Lockport to stop there if we won after playing schools like Newfane and Wilson. I came here yesterday with my fiancé, brother, and a friend and forgot how good all the food tastes. It's the perfect comfort food. And it's always so cheap. The perfect place to take a family to eat and not spend and arm and a leg. Their milkshakes are among the best I've ever had too! read more

This old chunk of coal has been dining at Reid's since childhood. The best milkshakes in the world, and everything else is great. I like to watch TV. read more

I'd never been here,but I'd heard all.about the longstanding institution that was Reids, so decided to stop in today. Cheap prices, and the cheeseburg and white hot would've been fine had I left the red sauce off. I don't like it, though everyone else in the party loved it. To me it tastes like a cross between pureed Major Grey chutney and sloppy Joe sauce, and I hate sloppy joes.i get why people would like reids red sauce, but it's not for me. Our order and the couple after us were both lacking rings, and I didn't want to wait to add them again, so didn't get to try those, but I'll be back in the summer to get the burger without the red sauce and the white hot without the meat sauce. Theres picnic tables outside, as theres no inside dining. Oh,they also dont have mayo, so you have ketchup, mustard, relish, malt vinegar, and pickles out for you to add, and their meat sauce and red sauce for the cooks to add if you order it. You can get raw or grilled onions too, but don't go expecting lettuce, tomato, or anything fancy. It's simple, cheap, and has its niche it's been doing since right after WW2. Worth a visit. read more

By far this will always be my favorite WNY hotdog/hamburger/shake place in Niagara county....There prices are so reasonable..where can you get a cheeseburger and a small drink for under $3...this is a classic outdoor place. read more

I grew up coming here and was excited to stop by for a milkshake on a hot summer day. I did not end up ordering because every single person in line in front of me did not have a mask on (for Covid precautions) and when I looked in at the workers, their masks weren't on properly (not covering their noses). Disappointing. read more

This is a hidden gem in Lockport. A great place to get burgers, hot dogs and fries. The price is right you can't go wrong. They are known for their sauce that can go on anything. The best is the double cheeseburger smoother with sauce. Which is onions and sauce. They have great milkshakes extra thick and so many flavors to choose from. If you are passing by stop and get something off the grill covered in sauce. read more

Reid's hasn't changed much in the over 50 years since I 1st had a red and white with sauce and a double cheeseburg smothered. Maybe not the best for the body but good for the experience. read more

Food was not fully cooked, very small burgers. French fries were small cut. Milkshakes were artificially flavored. Service was rushed. Picnic tables weren't clean. It was very good years ago, now not so much. read more

I have eaten here for 50 years and it has always been the best. The last 2 visits it was horrible. They tried to change (or burned) their sauce and the hamburg tasted spoiled. My guess is they cooked them the night before and then just heated them up to serve ( it was served 2 minutes after I ordered). You can tell they have gone to using cheaper products as the meat has a weird taste. The place is a pig sty. If the staff would stay off their cell phones and listen to what's being ordered maybe they wouldn't get so many orders wrong. The last issue is staff related too, every time I order the price is always different. Jack Reid must be spinning in his grave. read more

If you're not from Lockport, I'm sure this place would remain a solid 3 stars but this staple is important to us Lockportians and being transported back to the good old days is why we go. I love paying $1 and change for a burger that never changes. Be prepared for mediocre food at an amazing price. But the experience of spending $5 on lunch underneath the weeping willows while watching families fend off seagulls makes Reid's a great experience. Pro tip: skewer the pickles with their tooth picks. Order fries just to squish them in the middle of your burger. My major complaint is that they still use styrofoam and I wish they'd switch to something more eco friendly. That's the only reason they're getting 4/5 stars. Take your friends from out of town and see if they love it or question why you took them there. read more

Reid's is not gourmet food but let's be clear it is wonderful. Heap hotdogs, burgers, shakes, fries, onion rings etc. Not only are prices good but the staff are friendly and helpful and the service is good and quick. There are tables outside where you can sit but besides that I cannot picture any seating. They do have a decent size parking lot and with covid dinner in the car is a New Normal right?! read more

Where else can you get a Hamburg with a slice, fries, and a shake for just over $5? Love this place-love their t shorts too!

Classic old drive inn Prices very reasonable Food is good and fresh I had a hot dog and hot ham with cheese and fries All good Nice outdoor picnic tables Would come back for sure read more

2023 is the year that Reids goes downhill. I've been patronizing this establishment for decades and it has always been a nice spot for a quick, yummy bite. But the last several times we've visited, we order and pay and wait and wait and wait and stand and wait and wait. Other patrons order and receive their food before us, one after another. Finally, the girl who took our order asks us who our server was and if we'd been waiting awhile. We were totally forgotten about. The couple behind us said they were, too. And even after all that, the fries were undercooked and mushy. I won't be there again any time soon, and I know others have taken notice to the poor service as well. read more

OMG, always a must stop when in the Lockport area. My wife and I got a double cheeseburger, white hot hot dog, hot ham-n-cheese, sm. fry, sm. onion rings, sm. chocolate shake and a large Coke all for just under $15.00!!! The burgers aren't tiny either, they are thicker then a McDonald's burger, imagine 2 nice thick patties with melted American cheese not only in between the patties, but also on top!! Delicious! The white hot is a small but thick link, the size of a nice bratwurst, another delicious! Then moving on to their hot ham-n-cheese. This consists of a very nice slice of "real" ham about the size of a large index card, with melted American cheese drizzled over the nicely folded slice of ham then it is served on a hamburger bun. The sides of fries and rings were just the right portion. Not greasy at all, both fried to golden perfection. My wife got the chocolate milk shake and she actually need a spoon it was so thick! VERY chocolatey, not milked down. So all that goodness for under $15 is just unheard of!! If you're ever out with the family or just your significant other. Stop by Reids by the canal in Lockport! You'll not only go home with a full tummy, but also money that you saved from going to a chain restaurant. read more

Everybody raves about this place and perhaps that's why it didn't live up to my expectations? The staff supposedly never write anything down so has to memorize your whole order so I assume you'd better check to se if everything is correct. I didn't try the whole menu but the things I had were quite ordinary but perhaps you can't expect more given the really low prices? However I didn't really feel thee was any quality items among the stuff I ordered. read more

Reid's - Hot Dogs Near Me - Lockport, New York

I have a kitty cat that lives at my house that likes to hide amongst the Reids. They are tall Reids, in fact you can't even see the kitten when he's in them. He now mainly lives inside so no longer really hides amongst the Reids. This eatery is named after those same Reids. Also this place is stalking me because it showed up where I used to play football (soccer) at Sportsplex in North Tonawanda, so it's definitely following me around. Hmm. Reid's is a cute place that sells burgers and hot dogs in Lockport, it's very popular, and I have to try it again to see how good it really is. I have to admit I wasn't that impressed by it last time I came here, but it is very popular so I will give it another try next time I am in Lockport on a summer's day. read more
