I'm sure many moons ago, one can readily envision scores of people of all ages stopping into this charming gem along downtown Sunbury, once a booming business district. Today, it's one of the most charming old relics of the past that's still holding on today pressing a simple menu of good local hot dogs and local colas and chips for no higher than $5 if you're on your lunch break. I feel like Anthony Bourdain exploring charming old timey spots like this that haven't changed anymore than they have to. You can order up at the window from your car or bicycle, or pull up a seat on the etched charming counter top. Very friendly service too.

I saw this place a while back and wanted to try it so I went on a rainy Saturday afternoon and it was packed. The inside was full and there was 15 or so waiting outside. I got a couple different kinds of hot dogs and everything was great, my only complaint was that they only had one lady working and she was so slow. It's a very neat place, definitely try it if you're driving by.

I loved this sweet little place. Service was super quick. There were a couple local, regulars in there who warned me the spicy chili was very spicy, so I got a mix of sweet and spicy. Next time, I'll go for all spicy. The sweet chili has a cinnamon taste in it which is interesting. I just personally prefer spicier food and I have a high heat tolerance.

An assortment of their famous dogs.

The place is awesome and it has a great selection of dogs. They were packed so I did not have a chance to do the squeeze. Today was my first visit. I will be back if I ever happen to be around the Danville & Sunbury area again.

Now this is not the original location, the original location was on the corner of 315 and Main Street, it was just a little, basically a shack you walked up o and they were only open in the summertime. Now you can taste their legendary sauce no matter what season it is. Now the first thing I love about this place is that from what I was told by the owner, I am the first person to do a review here. If I remember I will link that 1st video. The second thing I love about this place is that they serve fresh cut fries, they were hot and delicious. Now they serve footlongs, I ordered two, one with mustard and onions, and the other was their signature chili, mustard, and onions. As per the video you see he does not skimp on the toppings. These were good tasting dogs, the buns felt like they were steamed. Definitely a great recommended choice.

I believe I found it at Big Ray's. My two dogs were just as yummy as I expected, but I could only eat one hot dog because I had to get the fresh-cut, homemade French fries. Very homey feel with friendly service. Al fresco dining is available when the weather is nice. The staff was very friendly, and I can attest that the food is great.

Big Ray's Burgers & Dogs has been sitting on my "must-try" list since summer, so when a Friday…read moreNight Date Night rolled around--and I was craving a proper chili dog--the decision was easy. The only real question: Would Big Ray's chili dog treat me kindly? (Important considerations were made.) We arrived around 5:30pm on a chilly January Friday and quickly realized we were not alone in this brilliant decision. The dining room was already about ¾ full, which I take as an excellent sign when evaluating burger-and-dog establishments. After a quick menu scan, I locked in my order: a ¼-lb beef hot dog with chili, mustard, and onions ($4.99) plus a Diet Pepsi (because balance). Adventure Buddy went all in with the Honey Butter Chicken Club ($8.59) and an order of fried pickles ($4.99), washed down with an orange Fanta. Total damage? Under $27. Date night win already. The food came out fast and piping hot, which is exactly what you want when you're this hungry. My chili dog immediately delivered--solid flavor, generous chili, and most importantly, the hot dog was grilled, giving it that slight snap that separates the pros from the amateurs. No soggy sadness here. Adventure Buddy's chicken sandwich was also a standout. This was a legit chunk of chicken breast, not a sad, thin patty pretending to be something it's not. Crispy, juicy, and the honey butter added just the right touch of sweetness without crossing into dessert territory. The fried pickles were thick-cut, crunchy, and exactly what fried pickles should be--dangerously snackable. All around, Big Ray's absolutely delivered. Solid food, quick service, great value, and the kind of place you immediately add to your "easy yes" rotation for burgers, dogs, and sandwiches. I'll definitely be back--especially once the weather warms up and that front patio becomes fair game.

I was in the area with some friends and I asked if they wanted to try this place out. It's kinda tucked away on a street I don't usually take. The place looks very retro, like my granddads house. The indoor saloon doors, machinery from the 50s and emphasis on milkshakes all kinda do it. Neat old-school wooden booths and tile floors all kinda make the experience pretty cool. The hot dog was fine. It was a fried hot dog. I put it a tier below the Nathan's Coney Island dog I had in Coney Island. Never been much of a chili of this variety. There was something nostalgic about the experience. Fries were crispy and shoestring just about. Like a cross between McDonald's and the classic diner fry. Milkshake was phenomenal. we got chocolate and mint in our and it was like a liquid Andes mint chocolate. Good value experience. I don't know about getting a hot dog again but I'd certainly return for the shake

Didn't care for the gravy and cheese fries. The fries are better suited to be served plain and dip in ketchup or cheese but not that gravy. The cheeseburgers were tasty but not "Wow!" The wife didn't care for her Texas chili dog today. Last time we ate inside, this time took it to-go and ate in the car. Not too messy but you gotta be careful not to get the chili sauce on yourself. LOL! I think this longtime landmark is worth an inside visit to enjoy a bit of history and lots of nostalgia. Just don't expect the best chili dog, but you will have an overall good experience.

We ordered a chili cheese dog with mustard and onions, a hot sausage with cheese, an order of…read morefries, and a bottle of Diet Pepsi. The total came to $14.79, which is an awesome lunchtime bargain. I honestly can't remember the last time I fed two people lunch for under $15. Major budget win. It had been 15+ years since my last chili dog from Jimmy's, so while running post-Christmas errands and finding ourselves nearby with no real timeline, we jumped on the opportunity. Things have definitely changed since my last visit. It's clear Jimmy's has dealt with some difficult customers over the years--numerous signs now ask folks to grab their food and head out. No eating inside, no public restrooms, and no replacing lost, stolen, or forgotten beverages or chips "due to a high rise in thefts and customer walk-outs." Back in the day, I remember a packed counter with customers chatting and eating. That era may be gone--but thankfully, the food hasn't changed where it matters most. My love for Jimmy's chili cheese dog remains completely intact. It's not the hot dog or the bun doing the heavy lifting here: simple white bun, basic hot dog, lots of onions and mustard. No, it's *that chili*. Good lawd, that chili. I don't know what magic is in it--maybe the greasy orange residue it leaves behind--but one bite instantly reminded me why Jimmy's holds such a special place in my heart. I demolished the entire thing in seconds, with only audible moans to signal that I had not, in fact, been transported to actual Food Heaven. The fries were a solid supporting act--thick-cut potatoes, perfectly fried, piping hot. They came unsalted, but salt packets were thoughtfully included in the to-go bag, so no real issue there. The portion size was bigger than expected for the price. The hot sausage with cheese was another win: perfectly grilled, slightly charred, and just spicy enough to satisfy. Served on the same basic white bun with American cheese, it was simple, classic, and done right. Plenty of free, on-site parking is available right out front since Jimmy's is located in a strip mall. Be sure to check the hours--6am to 4pm most days. Jimmy's won't satisfy a dinner chili dog craving, but it will absolutely fill your belly at lunchtime and leave you wanting more!

The lady behind the counter said, not many people were coming in to sit since February so they shut down the seating area. Too bad, because it was a cute little counter to sit. Regarding the hotdogs, I ordered two chili dogs with mustard. The hotdog itself was very bland. The chili was just OK. I would not go out of my way.
