I've had the hotdogs and burgers here too and they are worth the trip! The prices are phenomenal! This is no greasy spoon, as the pops sign says... this is good eatin' and great service!! We got a special treat because Patsy, who was the previous owners sister, now owned by her niece, came by every table and said hello. She was cute as a button! Worked here for 50 years and she's still as spry and friendly as ever! She told us about Fried Chicken Thursdays, very popular! And she makes the pies! We got a lemon meringue to go!! It then it looked so good, we ate it there!! Come on get you some!

I'd definitely return to Community Drive-In and sample some of their other menu items.

Known for their hotdog sandwich--2 butterflied dogs on toast with mayo, lettuce and tomato. Did not try it. Chicken salad and cheeseburger were tasty. Ice cream was better! Ambiance is very casual as it is an old gas station. Dining area is in the old garage bay. Outside seating available under the awning providing shade. It's the only place we found to eat in historic downtown Weldon. We did some antique/junk shopping and walked part of the River Falls Walk. Great stop over off 95. See the giant rock fish!

Everyone was friendly and ensured my order was placed correctly. The wait time wasn't bad either - I was in and out in no more than 15 mins. You can tell everything was made fresh. The food was packed with care for travel - made it easy to enjoy later without mess. Each hotdog had great taste. You could tell it was of good quality - not the cheap chicken hotdogs you get from some places lol Will definitely be back!

They offer a drive thru, a walk-up window, or you can go inside. The interior is pretty small with space for maybe 3-4 people to order, coolers for drinks, and shelves for chips. The 3 folks working clearly wanted to be anywhere but there. I get it. It was boring but also to come in wet from the rain and get poor service is disappointing. Food was ready quickly. I got the two hot dog special. Dog one had chili, slaw, and mustard. Dog two had pimento cheese. They use Brightleaf hot dogs here which I think are delicious but if you don't like the bright red pork dogs, you may want to go elsewhere. Buns were super soft; untoasted. Toppings were good. Chili, slaw, and mustard blended well together. They put the pimento cheese under the dog which is fine, but it meant it squirted out of the bun as I ate. Price for all that (two hot dogs, can of soda, bag of chips) was reasonable. $6.50 I think. Overall, it was ok.

My friend who I was with had been there when she was a child, but has not been back since. This was my first time. She took the time to explain the menu to us, and details about the items on the menu. The banana pudding is made with cinnamon graham crackers and dusted with cinnamon. It truly is a great twist on it and I love it. I did enjoy a hotdog with ketchup and mustard.hotdogs are an American staple I feel like, and Hot Dog King nailed these. They are simple, but a variety of toppings. I also had a side of fries. Their fries are nice, crispy and had a hint of grease, perfect. Angie brought out a sample of the BBQ and homemade coleslaw. I loved that she did that. I was nervous to try other things on the menu and she nailed it with a sample. The coleslaw was great. It was chopped up and a little runny, I like it just like that. The coleslaw was for sure packed with flavor. For me what would go well is some BBQ sauce. The funnel cake fries with a dusting of powder sugar so good! They can get hard if you get them to go because of the powder sugar. The shakes were creamy and made with soft serve. The corn dog, big and nice and crispy. The breading had a very mild sweet flavor and was cooked to perfection! Dipping that in mustard was the cherry on top. The interior had the whole hotdog theme down pat. They have been operating since 1972, a classic in the Hampton Roads area!

They also do burgers and brats, fries and exceptional onion rings and milk shakes. I sat at the counter overlooking the hot steel so I could enjoy the show in front of me. Most surprising was the cost for a very good frankfurter- $2.95 with a long list of toppings included. I went with the traditional brown mustard, relish and grilled onion bits put together by the masterful cooks, and added a long squirt of ketchup. Onion rings on the side and Pepsi for cool washdown. It was all a snack that put a smile on my face and a warmth in my stomach. Just enough snap from the dog, and a terrific greasy taste from the house made 'yuns. All the while I watched the cooks do their thing behind the counter and listened to their fun interaction. I even had a chat with Mrs. Gus, who was happy to have a new customer she could convince to become a regular. Loved her Greek accent. But for the fact that I lived 6 hours away in Pennsylvania, I would no doubt be a loyal regular. Still, with family in town, I have yet another great reason to return as often as possible to chow down!

We arrived around 11:30 on a Sunday and a crowd was just starting to build. You park and walk around the back of the building (backyard...makes sense) and enter that way. We each got a hot dog, a bottled soda, and we split an order of pretzel nuggets then took a seat outside. The food is brought out to you. It was the beginning of fall and just a perfect day to be outside. It didn't take long before our food arrived. I think we both wished all the food was a touch hotter. My friend would have preferred spicy mustard on her dirty dog as opposed to yellow (in the New York style) and a touch zippier sauerkraut. My speckled pup was LOADED and, while everything tasted really good, the bun didn't stand a chance. A sturdier bun that was slightly toasted would have made this a perfect dog, imo. The pretzel bites were fine. A good enough side order to split. I preferred the mustard and my friend preferred the beer cheese, so we were both happy. The outdoor space is really pretty cool and I bet it's a great spot for live music on nights and weekends. Would recommend.

Mac and cheese was not anything to write home about. Salad was huge - took it back to my hotel. Haggerty's was busy in a small-ish town for a Thursday night. I don't drink, so no comment on any alcohol except to say the Cosmo looking drinks at a table nearby looked great in frosty glasses. There were a few large groups lingering and chatting. Several other single eaters at the bar who seemed happy. Some family style meals going on - groups of 4 or 5. Overall, I'd say this is good spot to go for a steak if you're craving one. I'd return.
