I travel throughout the US and I have to admit I have gone to some places that sell crappy hotdogs but this place has the best chilli hotdogs I have ever tasted read more

The definition of a well run small business. Staff were extremely kind and attended to every one of our needs enthusiastically. Food was delicious and extremely affordable! Restaurant was super cool inside with tvs and a clear view of the kitchen. Would definitely recommend this family owned business. Please come here. read more

love this place, great hotdogs, food is just great. Service is amazing and very well priced. Come here to get the best hotdogs in South carolina. Will eat here again. read more

Yesterday I ordered a Chicago Dog. It was real good except for one thing! No neon relish! Just plain relish. I am assuming they get their Vienna dogs from Chicago, so why no neon relish? read more

Food and service are phenomenal!! The chili fries are soooo good. 10/10 would recommend!!!

Hot dog joint gets rated on the hot dog joint scale. I got the Chicago dog all the way with fries. Very delicious. Nice couple worked the kitchen and made my lunch with love and care. I'm not always in a hot dog mood, but when I am, you can't go wrong with Skoogies. read more

Fantastic! Parking is easy and staff were super nice and helpful. The hot dogs were great but honestly the fries were my favorite part (glad we ordered the large order). Extremely crispy and seasoned well. Food came out hot and ready in the blink of an eye. Def a place to grab a hot dog/fries for a quick stop if you're craving it! I ordered the chili dog and the chili was super classic. I would've smothered it in cheese and diced onions but we had to do some shopping after and I didn't want to subject any public toilets to me post-cheese. read more

Five stars well deserved, the food was quickly served and hot. The fries were delicious as well as the Chicago style hot dogs. The service was excellent very nice people and hospitable. Can't wait until my son visits again so we can go back. A definite go to. read more

People talk about this place like it's a gem. I was excited to go, especially when I walked in the door and realized that it had the "hole in the wall" and "been here forever" feel. Usually, those grimey old places have the best food! But Skoogies was a huge disappointment. The chile cheese dog tasted like I heated it up in my own microwave at home. The fries were only ok, and it cost a lot of $$ for what you get. I probably won't be back. read more

I would pass. I went because reviews were positive. Others said they believe there are new owners, that may make sense. I was disappointed. First the fountain drink machine was broke, paid for that but got a can of Diet Coke. No big deal but should have received a refund? Ordered a Rubin sandwich and it was the worst I ever had. Super cheap bread, no sauce, just plain bread. It's pretty hard to mess up a Rubin but they succeeded. I swear my coworkers roast beef sandwich was on winder bread. I wanted to like this place but the food was just poor. I was surprised because it was fairly busy with most ordering hot dogs. Guess that was my mistake. On a positive note, the workers were nice. read more

Authentic Chicago Dog. Using Vienna Hotdogs made in Chicago. I go for the chili dog with their awesome French fries.

What a gem. We've driven by for I don't know how many years... Today I had a craving for a chili cheese dog, did a yelp search and since it was on the way to our destination we stopped in. Chili cheese dog with mustard and onion for me. Chicago dog for my hubby. Basket of fries to share. Needless to say we inhaled it all before we took a single picture. We will be back !!!!!!! Hubby really didn't look at the menu and realized they had an Italian dip too late. That's his next try. I can't believe we've been sleeping on this one! read more

Do not order sandwiches here. Ordered 2 (overpriced) turkey sandwiches and when we got home there was no lettuce, tomato, mayo, nothing. The woman who took our order said he'd put everything on it unless we asked that he didn't. The hot dogs might be good but do not come here for anything else. read more

Experienced an extremely rude cashier today. She was clearly in a bad mood, dismissive and not helpful when myself and other customers asked where items were, on my first visit. If you want repeat customers, you need employees that understand customer service. I will never dine here again, sadly gave a $5 tip on a $12 order because I have heart for the service industry but she made me want to ask for it back. read more

BEWARE of SCAMS! I went into skoogies today as recommended by a friend. I placed my order and paid to move out of the way as they were busy. I thought the amount was a little high for what I ordered. I asked the cashier if I had ordered the wrong thing as my total was almost five dollars more than what it should be. She then told me that the prices that were displayed were wrong and she had the real prices written down under the counter. That is 100% illegal. After explaining it multiple times , she did eventually give me a refund. Customers double check your receipts! If you are the Owner you should double check your employees! read more

My co-worker brought in this amazing-looking egg salad sandwich for lunch and when I asked where it came from she said, "Skoogie's". I needed that sandwich, and headed there immediately after work, as they are only open 11-4. From the outside you get a beachside shake shack kinda vibe, and inside is all Chicago'ed out. I grew up watching WGN from Chicago, so I know the Empire Carpet phone number LOL There are a few tables as you enter and counter seating looking out the front window. The TV was loud as hell, with 2 old guys eating and watching it. Seems legit. The counter guy and the girl making the sandwiches were friendly and welcoming. I told them it was my first time and the guy pointed at the menu taped to the counter. I told him about the joyous egg salad and think he must have remembered the one he sold earlier because he smiled. I also ordered a Homewrecker with chili and onions, a dog with chili, cheese, and onions, and then pointed at the Chicago dog picture and said, "And one just like the picture! And a corndog." Before I could finish my Minute Maid lemonade, the nice girl handed me my bag with a smile. I can already tell I'll be back! Got the food home and bit into my pillowy, creamy egg salad sandwich. Bread so soft, flavor so mild, this is comfort food for sure. The corndog was a corndog. I think it was all-beef. You can't mess up a corndog. Later, my Chicago dog beckoned, and it was amazing! The pickle is mild, the sport peppers zingy, the tomato balancing it all out. Oh man, I need another one. Hubby's dogs were met with rave reviews, the sausage one firm and meaty and the beef dog just perfect. Chili was great, just the right amount of onion. He loves to eat the tubular meats, so we will definitely return. read more

Wow., what a hidden gem in MT-Pleasant! Tucked away behind Dunkin is this legendary Chicago style hot dog shop that not only has some of the best tasting dogs around the Charleston area. And some amazing friendly knowledgeable workers that some have been working here for over twenty years! This joint is very casual with some vintage Americana charm on the outside and the interior too. You can pretty much order your hotdog whichever way you tell them to make and with your choice of the small or larger size dogs....Side note: there is other food options on this simple menu and the hours are not friendly for you late night types but good for lunch and early afternoon only. Overall. It's my new goto fix for a quick yummy afternoon dog...kinda reminded me of some of the Midwest hole in the wall shops in Illinois/Indiana:) read more

In my 20s, skoogies was in a strip mall and we'd stop to get a hotdog and beer on the way home from the beach. In my 30s, I brought my husband here and later Skoogies closed and eventually reopened in an old McDonald's restaurant. It used to take the whole building. Now in my 50s I ventured back to Skoogies and brought my mom, who has never been. Skoogies still has its divey vibe and instead of taking the whole building, it's in the very back where I would imagine the McDonald's kitchen would have been. Everything has a sticky, greasy feel, but that's Skoogies. I ordered a classic Chicago dog and a coke (they no longer sell beer), and my mom got a chili dog and coke. We split some fries. Everything tasted great. Not exactly what I remembered but it hit the spot. I'm pretty sure there is a different owner but I'm not certain. The vibe is different but it's still Skoogies. read more

Stopped by for a little lunch. Had a small hot dog with chili onions and slaw. Chili was really nice but I think the slaw was a little to chunky for me. Next time I am getting just chili and onions. Bun was delicious with the poppy seeds on it. My husband had the egg salad sandwich and really enjoyed it. We shared the French fries because it's a huge amount. They were fantastic, perfectly seasoned and nice and small. read more

Anyone who doesn't give Scooties 5 stars has never has a good hot dog. I moved away from Mt. Pleasant 25 years ago and I still miss this place. I only rarely get to Charleston these days, but when I do, I always drop into Scoogies! read more

I love Skoogies ! The hotdogs are Vienna brand, used in Chicago. The chili dog is wonderful and the French fries beat out McDonald's fries. They're really that good. I'd go there just for the French fries. But those dogs are impossible to pass up. Worth 6 stars in my world. read more

Skoogie's is a humble little place that does its best to bring the Windy City to South Carolina and pretty much succeed at bringing a taste of Chicago to this southern east coast state. Well, at least in terms of their hot dogs (which is what I had at my visit here. Again, this place is definitely a no-frills type place, but there is nothing really fancy about a hot dog. I also think it bears mentioning that most of my favorite foods are nothing fancy and I have a feeling most people would share this opinion. Skoogie's offers a nice selection of hot dogs. The staff is friendly and it was an overall positive experience. I will give it an overall rating of four stars. read more

The girl at the front made my whole morning! My friend brought me and i'm vegetarian and she went above and beyond to make me a veggie hotdog! read more

Skoogies has the best hot dogs in Mount Pleasant! Even though their specialty is the Chicago dog, I always order a mustard, chili, slaw and onion dog and they are perfection! The buns are always soft and fresh (love the poppy seed buns!) and the chili is delicious! We love the local feel of the restaurant- nothing like a local, no frills place for the best hot dogs! I only wish their hours went a little later on the weekends! The owner is always there to take your order and make sure your dogs come out perfectly! read more

Tucked away behind a Dunkin Donuts. Small lace with limited seating. And it gets busy. Really busy. But they move through the orders quickly. Good, not great Chicago Dog. Real Vienna Beef dog and bun... But no neon relish (regular relish instead) and no sport peppers. Chili Cheese Dogs were interesting. Not the shredded cheddar I was expecting. The chili itself was good. Speaking with a local that was there and he said that it was 'off today'. I'll give it another shot next time I'm in town. read more

This place is a MtP staple. Hole-in-the-wall old school vibes and simple menu. Not too many people there at a time but service has always been good. Recommend the Reuben and just a classic hotdog with whatever fixin's you like. Quick, easy, tasty!! read more

Just happened to stumble upon this place. Don't spend a ton of time in the area, and was actually using the drive way to turn around when I saw the signage for Chicago style hot dogs, and as an original mid-westerner I couldn't not stop. Loved the eclectic vibe and unique/ funky decor. Was around 2/3pm and they were busier than I had initially thought. Took about 25 minutes from getting in line to receiving food. Due to time concern, I opted for chips vs fries. The dog was delicious, all beef and very juicy. Cole slaw was crunchy and well flavored. Drinks were ice cold. All together it really hit the spot! read more

We love Skoogies! It's such a regular to our days that I hadn't remembered to review it!!!!! The actual dog and bun are QUALITY! I veered from the norm today and got the chicken salad. It's good. But the dogs are better! Big ole basket of fries too. Saturdays are a ZOO but they crank it out pretty quick so the wait isn't bad. I will say that if you belly up to the bar the counter tops are so well worn they are sticky... not dirty, just shellacked and the humidity got to them!!! Don't get in the car line- that's Dunkin Donuts! read more

Small hot dog joint, but BIG on flavor!! I did a sauerkraut, chili, cheese, onions and mustard dog with a side of fries! The dog and bun surprised me. It was fresh and great.

Pretty great hot dog stop in a sea of restaurants!! read more

We are members of the Hot Dog Nation on Facebook. All of the members post places they visit anywhere in the country. We found Skoogies from Yelp and decided to give it a try. What a great find! They serve Beef Vienna Dogs from Chicago and rolls from Chicago as well. Nice snap to them and the chili and onions were spot on! The Seasoned French Fries were awesome. Lawry Seasoning Salt and crisp hot fries!! A great find and great dog!! read more

This is the perfect place to hit after the beach! I read a nice review and tried them on a Saturday. Yum!!! For $2.50 the fries are a killer. Loved the perfect Chicago dog.

For some strange reason, I feel like almost every hot dog spot in the Lowcountry is located in Mt P. I'm pretty sure I've been to all of them and while some I like better than others, I hadn't been to Skoogies yet. I live down the street and have driven past a million times, but always forget it's tucked in there behind Dunkin's. I knew before I came that they were all about the Chicago Dog, which isn't exactly my forte. I don't mind toppings on a dog, but any self-respecting Chicagoan piles theirs high with 3/4 of a house salad and for me it's too much. When I walked in, I expected to feel the peer pressure to get one while standing there at the counter in front of Chitown traditionalists. Instead, I felt more of an order-whatever-the-hell-you-want vibe and a variety of options on the menu. I went for a couple regular franks with ketchup, mustard, and cheese sauce... feeling a little traditional myself, I asked him to add pickle too. First off, the pickle was not overbearing as it was the normal length of a spear but only half the width... it was a nice touch and I'd definitely order it again. Next up, the dogs themselves were great. Juicy all beef hot dogs with a nice snap to them as well. The fries were shoestring and came in a giant portion which was more than enough for two. They're only open til 4pm so it's a great lunch or insanely early dinner spot. I was surprised to see they also have deli sandwiches as well and I'd love to try some of the other specialties like the Italian Beef. Who know's maybe I'll even give the real Chicago Dog another go around. read more
