How could you not like this place?! Great atmosphere, friendly staff and an awesome menu. We tried the reuben dog, taco dog and guilty pleasure dog with the Cajun fries. Dogs are messy but fun.... loved the taco dog! Cajun fries were too salty but appreciate that they are made in house! (Wish they had sweet potato fries with a fun dipping sauce though!) Can't wait to go back and try more creations!

Joint # 76: THE HOT DOG GIRL, Haddam, CT. The Hot Dog Girl has been slinging dogs since May 2002…read morefrom her very own hot dog cart. Lauren, a.k.a. The Hot Dog Girl, had a super friendly disposition and smiled as soon as we exited the car. Her love for hot dogs dates back to her youth in New Britain, where she would patronize the local joints for Martin Rosol's, Inc. Hot Dogs. Today, Lauren stays true to her roots and sells the very same dogs she grew up on. Trust us when we say that this roadside cart is nothing to overlook folks!! Swing in and see what we're talking about. RATING(S): J. Diggity Dog: 8.5/10, Dog Man Sac: 8.5/10. J. Diggity said, "Martin Rosol, dirty water, gotta love it. Natural casing dog. This thing had a great snap and a lot of flavor. Chili, got a little bit of flavor out of it, wasn't spicy. Had to wait for a little clearing, there was a lot of onion in there, which kind of covered up the flavor of the chili, but it was still good. Also tried some of the relish, we had half on there. That was also delicious, you got to try it, it was homemade with it's own little recipe. Overall, I liked the dog, had a lot of snap, had a lot of flavor. It was a bigger dog, not the thinner restaurant-style dogs. I'm going to give Lauren with The Hot Dog Girl an 8 and a half." Dog Man Sac said, "We did have the Martin Rosol dirty water, delicious. You know what I liked about it (to J. Diggity)? ... it was very, very hot! It was piping hot. I also liked the condiments. The chili probably could have used a bit more spice for my liking, but the relish made up for it. Lauren makes a homemade relish, it's delicious. I highly recommend it if you come down. Definitely get the relish. I am a Dog Man Sac 8.5 for The Hot Dog Girl." -THE DAWG TOUR

They also have some less guilty options. We each got their Grilled Chicken Bowl. The inside walls are orange with plenty of available booth seating. They have the soda machine where you may refill your cup on your own. This location is open till 2:00 AM on certain nights to potentially feed the hungry students of the neighboring UCONN. After we placed our orders, we were told to sit down, and they would bring them to us. After a very short wait of under 10 minutes the bowls were brought out to us. These bowls were small, there was lettuce, and chopped grilled chicken, the tomatoes and the pickles were few and far in between. As far as fast food goes, this bowl is a decent option if you're not super hungry, otherwise it won't hold you over for long.

Dogtown is the Northeast cheat code for satisfying a serious In-N-Out craving. If you know, you…read moreknow. My go-to order is the Dogtown Burger with two patties, extra cheese, no lettuce or tomato, grilled onions cooked well done, and plenty of Dogtown spread. Pair that with well-done fries topped with two slices of American cheese, spread, and grilled onions, and you've basically unlocked a full California-style burger experience without leaving the East Coast. The Bethel location really nails the vibe. They grill the patties in mustard and serve fresh, snappy green chilies on the side, just like the classic West Coast spots. It's the little details that make it feel authentic. Milford is excellent too, but Bethel gets the edge for those extra touches. The meat is consistently fresh, the burgers are messy in the best way possible, and the fries hit that perfect balance of crispy, cheesy, and indulgent. If you're chasing that Animal Style flavor in the Northeast, Dogtown absolutely delivers.

Hamburgers, hotdogs, rings and fries; you can't get much more humble than that. But, rest assurred, Chef is a master. Upon arrival I noted that the atmosphere was as plain as a school cafeteria. If you want fancy and sophisticated, you want someplace else. If you want simply great working class fare, get in line. This is what I did; and, to my advantage, the two guys in front of me seemed to have more questions for the sole employee than your average Jeoprady contestant. This gave me the chance to study the menu. It all looked good, but my eyes kept coming back to the Southern Dog. So let it be done, with a side of onion rings Within five minutes I had my food, hot off the grill, while noting that the pokey guys in front of me were already chowing down, and that the televison on the wall was showing programming other than golf or bowling. Fast sevice and entertainment while I waited. Always a plus. With bag in hand, I headed out to the car, noting the heat radiating from the golden yellow rings within. Flipping open the dog container, it was immediately clear that attempting to eat and drive would quickly result in my having made a food based fashion statement; so, I waited to get home before chowing down. First, the aforementioned golden yellow onion ring batter had a crispy, light consistency that allowed the inner onion's flavor to make itself known. More importantly, although fully cooked, the onoin had an understated, but unmistakable, crunch. On to the main event. The first, and every other, bite was a burst of flavor, The amptly tangy bbq sauce, atop moist and savory pulled pork, was well complemented by the crisp, cool, cole slaw on top. The dog itself was somewhat sausage like in favor, and an understated, yet clearly present snap (again, as I have said before, snap is of paramount importance to the hot dog connisuer). The meal, sans soft drink, rang in at under fourteen bucks, before tip. Well worth the price; and considering there was one guy, who strongly resembled the cartoon chef painted on the front window, that was running the show alone, it was well worth the tip, as well.

Normally I don't do well with greasy, spicy or fatty foods but I decided to try the Avomelt 86 bacon add tomato since I'm a vegetarian. However, to my surprise it wasn't greasy at all and was so mouthwateringly flavorful that after the 1st half I was full but I just couldn't stop taking one more bite until next thing I knew I devoured the entire sandwich. TBH I have been thinking and craving another sandwich since. Finally today 2 days later I decided to just go for it and give into this intense craving but the restaurant was closed. I tried to hunt down the food truck but unfortunately it wasn't out; so I'll have wait & try the restaurant tomorrow. The truck was super clean, the line moved very quickly and my order was ready w/I a few minutes. Oh and the guy working was crazy friendly and super cool about the modifications I requested. After looking at their menu I can't decide between the Avomelt, Caprese, Spinach artichoke dip or tomato bisque. I guess I'll just have to make a few visits when family comes to try them all. They have a lot of vegetarian options which is great especially considering lots of restaurants have a very limited vegetarian offering. Let it be said this was honestly the best sandwich I've ever had. Looking forward to trying something new tomorrow! You should definitely give this place a try! 5 stars doesn't do The Whey Station justice!

Extremely disappointing and unprofessional experience…read more We contacted The Whey Station Food Truck on June 22, 2026, about catering our Jack & Jill event on September 5, 2026. Josh responded on July 6 confirming that they were available that day and said he would contact the brewery to work out the details. We provided the brewery contact information on July 8. After not hearing anything further, we followed up on July 24 to confirm the details. Josh did not respond until August 3, when he explained that they would only be able to serve our party and that, in order for it to make sense for them, there would need to be a minimum. We immediately asked what minimum he expected. It took another 14 days, until August 17, for Josh to tell us that his normal catering minimum was $850. We explained on August 19 that we were comfortable covering up to $400 and that, with approximately 100 guests, another food truck, and light appetizers, we expected the two trucks to handle the food for the event. At no point did Josh clearly tell us that he was declining the event, that our $400 offer was unacceptable, or that he considered the booking canceled. He also never told us that a deposit was required to confirm the booking or that, without one, he would not show up. Then, on September 5 (the actual day of our event) Josh and The Whey Station food truck simply did not show up. I called Josh when we realized the truck was not present, and he did not return our call. Instead, he eventually sent a message stating that he "never agreed to come," that a deposit had not been paid, and therefore the event was not contracted. Regardless of whether Josh personally considered the booking finalized, this is not an appropriate or professional way to handle a catering commitment. If he had concerns about the arrangement, disagreed with our proposed minimum, required a deposit, or did not intend to attend, he should have communicated that clearly before the event, especially after we had repeatedly followed up trying to finalize the details. The biggest issue isn't that we couldn't come to an agreement on the catering minimum. The issue is that he left us with the impression that the arrangements were still being worked out and then, without clearly telling us that he was not coming, no-called-no-showed on the day of a major event. For an event that had been discussed for more than two months, this was incredibly frustrating and put us in a very difficult position with our guests. We would not recommend The Whey Station based on this experience. Clear communication and timely confirmation are the bare minimum when dealing with someone's scheduled event. 2-3 week response times to emails are unacceptable.
