checkered floor

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The food is top notch for what it is. It's not gourmet but man it's good!! The dogs and veggie dogs are my goto but I've seen people get the pizza and chicken and it all looks good. The Fries are good but add the spikes fry salt and they kick ass. The place is set up for quick service with some tables and booths. Sometimes a tv is on and sometimes music. This is the last Spikes left so please support this place.

Food

This place is a classic man I grew up eating here you get exactly what you expect they are a little pricey but we gotta keep there doors open it's a dying breed good food good atmosphere a must stop

German Dog, Burger, and Curley Fries. And homemade root beer!
Herr K.

Found this place purely by chance. So glad that we ran into it. Really nice service. Interior clean and simple, with good seating. We had a German Dog, Burger, and Curley Fries, along with homemade root beer! Excellent all around. High quality meat on both sandwiches. All kinds of toppings. Just a mile away, I drove by a McDonalds with a long line of cars in the drive through. Why go there, when you could come to Spikes for FAR BETTER quality food, at the same price? GO TO SPIKES!

Get the Texas Ranger dog & fries! You're welcome!

Spike's has always been great since way back to their Thayer St. days. I have never had bad food there and now my family loves it too!

This place rocks! Every time I have gone they have been super friendly, fast, delicious, and very reasonably priced. Tonight I went and one of the workers even took the time to hand cut tomatoes because I didnt want onions on my sandwich, i would have been fine picking them off but he went above and beyond.

Great chili cheese dog

I would give the hot dog 10 stars if I could. Hot dogs are my favorite food and I'm very, very particular about brands and places where I eat them. The hot dog at Spikes was exceptional. I could immediately tell there weren't any fillers and was spiced just right. The bun was a perfect compliment. I live in CT and wish there was a Spikes in the New Haven area. This area could use a good hot dog spot. I can't wait to visit again. The only negative was the made especially for Spikes root beer. It had a terrible taste. Couldn't finish it. But I definitely wanted another hot dog.

Amazing dogs made to order. If you want that hole in the wall feel with some great people behind the counter. This is the place to go.

Did Uber delivery here- the rude, large man was hard to deal with and aggressive. Don't eat here. I saw a rat.

Old school joint doubling as a diner for breakfast fare and as slinger of hot wieners and burgers…read more -- Hot Wiener: Good version, griddled wiener in a steamed bun. I think shorter than Olneyville's, much more heavily seasoned, but with less celery salt. The meat sauce worked and the bun was soft and fresh. Can't go wrong here. -- Patty Melt: A dainty variety on thin white bread, with a thin, low grade burger patty and a minimal amount of condiments. Not bad, but even as a lover of patty melts, I would have preferred my friend's standard cheeseburger. -- Fries: The standard frozen variety, typical of diners, but well executed, served piping hot with crisp exteriors and fluffy interiors. -- Coffee Milk: Tall glass whose to tint made it hard to see how concentrated the coffee syrup was, but a good amount. Noticeably more sweet than most. Not cold though. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Comparisons to Olneyville NY System are inevitable. I prefer Olneyville across the board, but this place is certainly worthy of a return. The breakfast items I saw go by looked good.

For 30+ years this was 5 stars…read more New ownership saved one of my childhood favorites and I've been back multiple times since reopening. I can confidently say - 4 stars at best. Positive changes - bright decor, updated systems, and the takeout window - along with expanded hours. But - it's just not the same. So many people behind the counter but kitchen service is slower than it ever was before. Wieners sit on the grill, piled up and burn. Portions are drastically reduced. Breakfast prices are way up and the constant addition of new items - while make sense for new owners - have taken away the true identity of this local icon. Staff is still incredibly nice - although there are twice as many. Love the idea of merchandise and the lively atmosphere. But Saturday afternoons aren't the same. The magic is - not gone - but hidden under a shiny cloak of, dare I say, ego. Go from a partially nostalgic trip - enjoy the service - but you won't be racing back weekly.

Fifth stop for the day. Second of the final three on today's RI FOOD FIGHTS Lord of the Pies run…read more Six pizzas total. By this point you start questioning your life choices, but then you walk into a place like Cosmic Pizza Steak & Weiners and remember why you're doing this. Cosmic Pizza was home base for Pilgrim High School kids back in the '80s. The place we'd hit after basketball and hockey games, when pizza was fuel and community was guaranteed. Walking in tonight felt like stepping into a time machine, except everything's been upgraded. The location moved down the street from the original spot. Cleaner now. More modern. Brighter. The kind of place that kept what mattered and improved everything else. And the pizza? Better than it was back then. The place was packed. Standing room only with about fifteen people waiting for orders despite the ovens running full tilt. Tables full, to go orders flying out the door. A neighborhood spot that's clearly still doing what it's always done, just evolved. Rob, the manager, runs the room like he's conducting an orchestra in the middle of a rush. The place is buzzing, hectic, absolutely humming with activity, but he's got it all under control. And somehow, in the middle of all that, he still takes the time to talk to you. Makes it clear how grateful he is that you showed up. That's not just good service. That's genuine hospitality under pressure. The pizza justifies the crowd. The crust is what stands out first. Super light, airy, crispy in a way that feels almost delicate but still has structure. Not thin crust territory but not thick either. Just right for what they're doing. The sauce brings herbs forward. Savory, not sweet. You can taste the seasoning, taste the intent behind it. The cheese is quality stuff, melts right, browns in the spots that matter. Whatever toppings you order are going to be good because they're clearly not cutting corners on ingredients. The operation itself is something to watch. Tons of people working, all moving fast, all under pressure. But every single one of them smiles. Acknowledges you. Makes it clear they're grateful you showed up. That's culture, not accident. That comes from the top down through Rob to everyone on the line. Nostalgia can mess with your judgment. Makes you think things were better than they were. But Cosmic proves you can go back and find something actually improved. The energy is the same. The community feel is the same. Everything else got better. The space, the food, the friendliness of everyone involved. Fifth pizza of the day, stomach protesting, and this one lands differently because of what it represents. A place that's been feeding a community for decades and somehow got better instead of coasting on history. Worth the wait. Worth the crowd. Worth coming back when you're not trying to eat six pizzas in one day. And we will.

If you haven't tried Cosmic yet, Id recommend. Easily of the best pizza and grinder spots I've had…read more It's a little small but still had plenty of benches for seating. Service was pretty quick and food is flavorful.

Despite the name, the New York system, hot wiener is a Rhode Island novelty. As with any strange…read moreregional food, there are multiple claims to be the first. As far as I'm concerned only will New York system hot wieners are the original. On this trip, I ordered two all the way with fries and a Diet Coke and they delivered exactly that. For the uninitiated, a New York system hot wiener starts with a hot dog like sausage - the hot wiener - place in a hotdog roll topped with mustard, onions, meat sauce, & celery salt. The wieners came out tightly wrapped in butcher paper and hot. They were exactly what I was looking for after a long day. I got to the restaurant in Cranston their second location just after nine and the dining room was closed. But they have a take out window(not a drive-through, but a walk up) and I took my order to one of the two picnic tables in the front of the parking lot. The staff was very friendly and the meal was priced reasonably. If you are local to Cranston or Providence, and you enjoy a good hotdog, you should give Olneyville a try. It's a truly unique Rhode Island experience.

Went in at 11:30 for lunch, side service window was not open, went in and was in and out in 2…read moreminutes. 2 all the way, first one was overdone, crunchy casing! 2nd one was perfect, great snap...off the rope, onions were great, and the meat sauce was excellent.
