Walter's is s a hot dog stand, popular by demand. It's a "must go to" when you are visiting Larchmont, Mamaroneck, or nearby towns. Now, I need to tell you. It's not popular by demand and a "must go to" because I said that. The reason being, many new comers say that the must go by Walter's because someone told them how good the hot dogs were and the service. I've been visiting Walter's for 24 years. I know, it's hard to convince you because this is my first review and check in, but I'm not here to convince you of how long I've been eating Walter's hot dogs. I'm only here to convince you that you need to come by and witness for yourself. Walter's is a hut that sells hot dogs. They used to have a table where you can sit but it's predominantly take out place. They do have several trucks as well so you can have a catered event. Waiter's hot dogs are split in half and served flat. I really prefer my traditional hotdogs on the bun but this works and they are really delicious. I had one regular dog with ketchup and their mustard relish mix, the bun is toasted and that gives a nice crunch and mild flavor, nothing tangy. I also got a chili dog and it was quite different. A small portion of Walter's style chili, it also was pretty good and not overwhelmed by the chili. The tater tots were different they weren't regular tots it was more potatoie if that makes since. I discovered that they have a vegan dog. If I had viewed the menu closer before ordering, I would have tried it. The also have shakes and other is tems. Pics of menu posted. This was such a tasty trip and Walter's customer service is always A-1 service. I'm full but I have room to... Inspire more, Yelp more! read more

This hot dog place is definitely different, but in a positive way. The hotdogs are legitimately delicious, the service is excellent and the overall feel of the place is positive and flowing with energy. Walters has also been around forever; now they have expanded with another restaurant in White Plains plus a truck, cementing their legacy in Westchester indefinitely while expanding at the same time. read more

I have had Walter's on my "to do" list for so long now. Finally got to have some of their fantastic Hot Dogs! We got there right around 11:30 and the seating area was pretty much the high school from across the street. Thankfully, once we got in line, their lunch was ending to they skeedaddled back to class. I placed my order for a single, and a puffy dog, both with mustard. My Brother got the same. How were they? Amazing! Hot Dogs- These hot dogs are a blend of pork/veal/beef. They slice them in half and cook them on the grill so both sides get nice and charred/cooked. Their mustard is like a spicy brown style mustard, and they are served on soft steamed buns. What does that equal? A damn fine hot dog! The chew of the dog was great, and that mustard was phenomenal (I should have bought a bottle of it). I could see why all the high school kids were eating here...I would too.....like every single day! lol. Puffy Dog- Same as the hot dog, but they add 2 potato puffs inside the bun. It created a nice texture, but I liked the straight up dog better. Service was great at the window, and the building is very cool! Historic Landmark! If I lived near by, this would definitely be my spot, and if I'm ever back near NYC, I'm taking the drive up here to get some more dogs. They were awesome! Wish I had ordered more, but we had a long day of eating pizza ahead of us! read more

One of my all time favorite hotdog spots. Whenever I am in town, Walter's is a must visit! The food was nice and hot. The service was great. Food was out within a few minutes! Plenty of outdoor seating available. Restrooms are clean and available if needed. read more

Truly A Westchester staple. The classic building that encases this hot dog stand is a beautiful and historic, matching the food itself. A Water's hot dog is unlike a normal one that you'd find at a baseball game or in the grocery store. It has a unique flavor that has stood the test of time. The curly fries are perfectly seasoned and crispy and this might be one of the only places in Westchester you can still get an egg cream (haven't had one here in a while but it's still on the menu!) I came for their 106 year anniversary since hot dogs were $1.06 and man, did it hit the spot. I drank that float so fast it was almost gone by the time my hot dogs were ready. I saved the strawberry shortcake sundae in the freezer while I ate my dinner and honestly I was a bit disappointed. The sponge cake wasn't soft enough for my liking and the strawberries didn't seem fresh but its not a normal menu item so I can't knock it too much. Everything else was just so perfect. read more

You know why Walter's Hot Dogs have been around since 1919? Because it is an awesome experience of good hot dogs and a family friendly place enjoyed by so many generations. Kids have a great time and the parents can relax. Great menu with a variety of options and yes there is a veggie dog for those that are inclined to go that way. Love the floats with you choice of soda and flavors of ice cream. This place just speaks to simpler times and good family outings. Service is quick and friendly. There is usually a line, but it moves quickly as each order is wrapped and bagged. Good mustard over split and grilled hot dogs. Parking in the back or on the street is easy. Plenty of outdoor seating if you stay or hop in your car and go. Corn hole for those wanting to give it a throw. This is a must try if you are in Westchester, NY. read more

Have been pretty obsessed with Walter's since I had them recently at a food truck so of course we had to make stop at their OG location in Mamaroneck. There hot dogs pack a blend of veal, pork and beef grilled with a secret sauce, toasted bun and their mustard which is also to die for. They also have a variety of other things including French fries, straight and curly. We got their fries as a side, don't love them but could be worse, the hot dogs is truly where it's at. Walter's is a historical landmark, get the double, you won't regret it. In the summertime they have a nice patio around to the side of the parking lot with picnic tables and sometimes live music. This place can simply do no wrong, even for a pack of their dogs to take home. read more

Deemed by someone I trust in the food world as the "best hot dog ever" so it was no surprise she brought the whole family out here for a celebration. They were indeed incredible hot dogs! We went the whole day without being sure if they were pork, beef or veal and it turns out they are a combination of all three. We were able to take over most of that back picnic area for a big gathering and they brought out batches of the hot dogs whenever we needed them so they were always hot a fresh. Sliced down the middle, they are grilled perfectly. I am a ketchup and mustard girl (sue me) and the mustard here is just the absolute best hot dog mustard. Makes sense because it is home made! On top of hot dogs, we tried a few of their milkshakes and malted and I have never chugged something so fast. Get. The. Malted. While this is just a hot dog stand with lots of pic nic tables, the vibe is fantastic, clean and very spacious. A perfect stop if you are in the area and even for a day drive if you are craving a great hot dog and milkshake. read more

Ever since I was a little kid playing baseball in the sandlots of Brooklyn, I couldn't wait for the game to end. The reason is because I knew there would be a delicious grilled Hebrew National, Sabretts or Nathan's frankfurter waiting fot me and my friends. Some of my friends would douse ketchup on their franks but not this guy. I was taught to go w/ mustard, sauerkraut and red onions b/c these condiments made the grilled frank a gourmet meal! Fast forward 40 years and the kid from Brooklyn still can't get enough of the perfectly grilled all beef frankfurter. Well I was in White Plains recently for a meeting and a friend of mine kept raving about a place called Walter's near where we were. As soon as our meeting ended we jumped in my colleague's and drove 10 minutes to a giant building with a green pagoda like roof. The place looked more like an ancient Chinese temple than a hot dog stand. The gates were down but there were a handful of students from the school across the street. We quickly parked and got on the ever growing line. I studied the menu and was ready to pounce on two doubles and curly fries. Doubles are two single hot dogs sliced in half on a bun. The secret sauce at Walter's is the home made mustard. When our orders was ready we grabbed our food and went back to the car to savor our delicious meal from the hot dog God's. The size of the hot dog was kind of smaller than what I was used to getting. After one bite I knew right then and there what all the fuss was about. The double was small but very yummy. I thank the lord that I had tge foresight to order two doubles. The curly fries were very as good as well. After lunch my colleague and we're contemplating getting back on line for another round, but we decided to get on the highway back towards NYC. I would highly recommend Walter's Hot Dogs if you're ever in that neck of the woods. read more

Truth be told, my party adventured here because of Kevin Dillon from Entourage. He grew up in Mamaroneck and mentioned how these are his favorite hot dogs in an interview. I can totally see why....and so reasonably priced. I ordered a Walter's single with "everything". It was very good, never had tried the split hot dog concept before. Because I ordered other items, I didn't order the double but in the future plan on trying the double and a chili dog. I also had the order of 5 Pigs In The Blanket. They did not disappoint! You can get 10 also if you plan on sharing. The Blanket was baked around the mini dog just perfect. A crust that was buttery and flaky. I dipped the pigs in mustard, just yummy . For sides, I had the curly fries and the new potato spuds. The fries were lightly seasoned, they were nice and crisp.The spuds were so good - like little mashed potatoes wrapped in a crispy potato coating - crunchy and delish. I had to have an old fashioned chocolate Egg Cream to drink. Ahhh, nostalgia at it's finest - highly recommend it. Quick friendly service , parking in the back of the stand and nice clean picnic tables with umbrellas to sit and enjoy the best hot dogs ever. read more

Great hot dog and love the funnel cake fries! Have a variety menu of shakes and sodas and fries. No hamburger or chicken.

No list of the greatest hot dogs in New York, the USA, or the world is complete if it doesn't include Walter's somewhere on that list. It doesn't need to be first place - individual tastes can vary and the world has many good hot dogs - but if Walter's doesn't make the list, that food writer has failed you. Walter's hot dogs are unique and delicious - split down the middle and grilled in butter - and worthy of a side trip if you're near the area. Note to Walter's: bring back sweet spuds read more

Delicious hot dogs and vanilla creams. I just wish they had yellow mustard and a place to sit!

When my friend told me about this place, she had me at "hot dogs fried in butter!" These are the perfect decadent treat, and their consistently long line of loyal customers speaks for itself. I got the single hot dog with ketchup and mustard, and an order of curly fries. The hot dog was delicious, split in half on a toasty bun, and the fries were well seasoned. Their soda floats are also quite yummy. I will definitely stop here again if I'm in the area! read more

Once a week we had an appointment.. and we stopped by Walter's stand for a double hotdog.. for each of us...I don't know who was more excited..my mother or my sister and me.. It was a small stand alone little building with one older gentleman cooking, taking orders and payment...and we ordered.. Ate in the car...This was the early 60's.. Now I find they have expanded into other areas and the stand quadrupled in size .. My sister and I stopped by.. Ordered the usual.. Curly fries and double hot dogs.. Damn we had a pretty good childhood..It did not disappoint. read more

Bring back the potato puffs! The potato "spuds" are an unworthy substitute. Dogs are as good as usual! read more

More than likely customers come here for the nostalgia. If this is the first time trying, get a double. No toppings is also problematic. The single was underwhelming. The pigs in a blanket were good but not great. The curly fries could've been crispier. The potato puffs were like a type of bread bite. Sorry. We wanted to enjoy this. But we didn't. read more

The last time I was here, I was in my single digits in age. As a kid, my father would take me here frequently enough and I always looked forward to it. I wasn't sure how they did it, but their hot dogs - sliced down the middle - were always excellent. Excellent to the point that even though it's been decades since I've been here, they were by default the place to where all hot dogs were compared. There just wasn't any better hot dogs anywhere except from Walters. Truth be told, as much as I always remembered this place fondly and this was the place where they made the hot dogs perfectly, I had forgotten this place existed in the physical form. I got older, 'Walters' became just another memory from my childhood. No matter where I went, no hot dog ever could or would compare to the ones I had from Walters when I was 4-8 years old, even though I stopped being taken here. It was always like this. Once in a while I'd remember this place, but always assumed it was gone like every other place from my childhood. I never even looked it up. Then by chance very recently, I was walking around White Plains and saw a hot dog place called 'Walters'. I wondered if it was the same owner(s) that relocated or something. Thanks to the power of smart phones, I was able to quickly look up that my original Walters was still in the same place in Mamaroneck with the same unique building that I remembered and from that moment, I made it my business to get here as soon as possible. And that day was today. Keep in mind, I'm not a hot dog guy - I have them on occasion and that's it. It never mattered if one was good or decent, it just never compared to the ones I had from Walters when I was a child. When I decided to finally come back here after decades, I had wondered if my illusion would change or perhaps my taste buds did. I was almost briefly hesitant to try them because part of me didn't want my longstanding image of Walters' great hot dogs to be ruined by something that changed - whether it was ownership or me. But, I just had to try and I did. The hot dogs tasted great and still sliced down the middle. I got both with mustard (which I never did as a child) and I scoffed them both down in quick fashion. Yes, that taste was still there. I don't know exactly what they do to them, but whatever it is it's right. Walters still has the greatest hotdogs around. Period. I'm not sure if the menu changed or grew larger over the years, but they had plenty of other offerings. The curly fries (which I also ordered) were good. There's plenty of other options on the menu - from shakes to actual merchandise. You can even pick up hot dogs, buns, and mustard to play Walters at home. I ended up getting some mustard for the hell of it. I came near opening and it was already crowded. I expected a little wait, but my order came very quickly. They have quite a good system in place. There is a fairly large outdoor area for seats/tables - I imagine it's great for the summer weather. There is a high school across the street - which I never realized as a kid sitting on their steps and eating my awesome hot dog back then. Those kids are lucky they have this right across the street. They probably already know it since there were a lot of students there at the same time I was. Parking is street. Only had dealings with the cashier, who was nice. I went out of my way to get here after so long and now that it's fresh on the brain and now that I know this place is still here after literally decades, I will be returning often enough. It won't be for the nostalgia anymore as I did that just today. It will be for the still reigning best hot dogs around (and maybe other things off the menu as well). They've been open for over 100 years (1919), so they are clearly doing something right. Thank you Walters for still standing and being there. read more

Nothing like Walter's Hot Dogs in Mamaroneck. Been going there since 1961 all the way to today. Great food service and prices still very reasonable. Hot dogs very unique mix of different meats and have a taste all their own. read more

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING! The food here is incredible, everything is. Got the pretzel bun hot dog with mustard, curly fries, and a peanut butter shake. Loved it all. The pretzel bread is amazing I could just eat it by itself. It inspired me to go to Wegmans and get their pretzel buns and have everything on that now. The hot dogs are very flavorful. The curly fries have wonderful texture and flavorful spices. The peanut butter shake was delicious. Got the whip, but you don't really need it. Their famous mustard is great, it is a bold flavor. I like mustard but I'm not a mustard person so instead of mustard on the hot dog I like it on the side and I can dip it. I also liked the combo of dipping mustard/mayo with the hot dog. I've been to their White Plains location too and got the salted caramel shake, my favorite. The shakes are flavorful, thick, and creamy. I have not tried the cowboy extra thick shake, but I can't image it even thicker. The past week they were having an issue with their vendor for the potato puffs so I could not get them yet. Also not sure if that affected their sweet potato fries because we just ordered the sweet potato fries at White Plains and they were regular sweet potato fries and not sweet pot waffle fries and were also just okay - good texture but not as amazing as everything else. The staff were friendly and the food was ready quickly. I don't think you'll find any better amazing cheap food anywhere else in Westchester. Lots of picnic tables and surprised to see they have a bathroom. read more

Great spot to stop for lunch off i-95. Lots of street parking. It has a cute outdoor dining area with picnic tables under mature trees that provided a shady place to enjoy lunch with our two pups. (They enjoyed a hot dog too.) I have a peanut allergy and wow, they took that seriously here. They said they don't use peanut oil for cooking/frying, but do have peanut butter for their shakes. So, they explained how they would clean the shake machine and use fresh gloves if I ordered one. Amazing service! The line moves fast and the food came out quickly. The hot dogs are solid, though next time would get a two dog to one bun. It was a little bready with just one. Their house made mustard is fantastic! We took home 4 bottles. We enjoyed the sides most. - Sweet potato waffle fries were simple, crunchy, and delicious. - Potato puffs are basically fried balls of mashed potatoes. Kept wishing I had a side of gravy! - Watermelon ice freeze with Sprite is just perfect if you like something sweet. Lemon ice with lemonade was perfect for something more tart. Do not skip the funnel fries, they were awesome. I don't tend to like sweets, so ordered easy on the powdered sugar and they were perfect. read more

Sorry as a kid from Brooklyn and having the original Nathan's in my backyard there is no comparison. So you split a dog in half and grill with butter.... unique,no not really.

On our way to MA and this spot popped up on our road tripper app as a must stop. Great spot for hot dogs, fries, shakes, ice cream and my fave...funnel cake sticks! Only condiments they offer are mustard, ketchup and mayo which were aok for us. Hot dogs are split down the middle and griddle fried and their fries are perfection in a cup. The funnel cake sticks are crazy addictive. Nice outdoor seating area and ordering and picking up food is easy and safe. Will for sure be stopping anytime we are on our way northeast! read more

I'm not a hot dog person, but Walters has me thinking about a return so that tells me 5 stars right there. Their unique meat blend brings a satisfying flavor profile and the right texture. In my opinion, skip the footlong and go for the regular dog. It's longer, but it's just meat and bread, not worth the charge. I got the double puffy dog. The double dog is definitely the right answer for meat per dollar and the potato puffs go perfectly on there. My friend got a separate side of puffs and they are heavenly. It was clear to me how this place has survived over 100 years. I owe my friend and Walters a return visit sooner than later. read more

At Walter's, it's all about the bun! The frankfurter sausage itself isn't spectacular, and the toppings at Walter's are not particularly imaginative or flavorful. Where Walter's Hot Dogs stands out from the competition is in the bun, which is nicely toasted and buttered. I have heard that it is difficult to find good egg cream, even in the New York City area, but apparently, the egg cream at Walter's is delicious. The fries are pretty average, but I would recommend the potato puffs. You order at the counter. The service at the counter is fine. It is not rude, nor is it particularly memorable. The Asian Pagoda architecture is what passes for interesting ambiance at this outdoor hot dog stand. A sign near Walter's Hot Dogs tells you that exotic architecture like this was a trend in the 1920s when this particular location of Walter's Hot Dogs opened. The benches down the hill to the left of the stand provide a comfortable dining area on nice spring, summer, and fall days. read more

Walter's is great in every way! But especially the hot dogs! Try it and you'll be hooked!

What's so very special about these cut in half Walter's hot dogs? Absolutely NOTHING! Frozen Sabrett hot dogs are much tastier than these sooo ordinary dogs! So completely underwhelming. I'm not sure where they got this false and spectacular reputation, cause it surely DOES NOT live up to the expectations I had for these "famous" in Westchester hot dogs!!!!! On the other hand, the fries were not oily crisp and tasted delicious. But the hot dogs? Incredibly forgetful. read more

Walter's Hot Dogs - Store front - Hot Dogs Near Me - Mamaroneck, New York

So I might be the dissenting opinion here but I wasn't impressed. Finally went to Walter's and waited on line for a couple of dogs. The first thing I was disappointed in was that the only toppings you can get are Walter's mustard (mustard with relish), brown mustard or ketchup. Definitely disappointing. I also wanted a coke ice cream float after staring at the dessert menu for a few minutes while I waited to order. I was politely informed that they don't have soda or their machine wasn't working, or something like that. Bottom line, I couldn't get the ice cream soda so another disappointment. I had a five minute wait for my dogs and I was a little surprised they were smaller than I imagined. There was a tiny amount of mustard on them - they were ok but nothing impressive. I would bring my grandkids here cause I think the stand on the side of the road is cute and they have a sitting area right next to it but as for me I'll stick with Nathan's. read more

Classic Hot Dogs now available in 10 count packaged to cook at home. Veal, beef and pork mixture.

I'm baffled by some of the negative reviews on here. I've been going to Walter's for 50 years and if I don't go as frequently as I used to I'd still say that there's been no drop off in quality. There may be other excellent hot dog vendors but this has always been and hopefully always will be the best I've ever had. Over 100 years experience and a loyal following would attest to that. read more

Great hot dog! Better egg cream!!! Great place fir a quick meal! Outside eating was nice

This is a must-stop if you're touring in the area. Well worth a detour. I'm sure I don't have to tell the locals how tasty the food is! These dogs are definitely their own recipe, nothing mass produced about them. Not overly salty! Quite flavorful, and that secret blend mustard was insane! Sorry I didn't buy a jar to go. Potato puffs: these ain't no tots baby. Hot and fresh. Unique and delicious. Prepare for long lines but it did move pretty quickly considering. Also keep in mind there's picnic tables, but no indoor seating. Good sized parking lot. Weirdest single-use bathroom I ever saw but TP was stocked, room was clean and there was soap and a quality hand dryer. Just think how many people have stopped right here to enjoy the same family recipes for the past 90 years! I invite you to do the same. read more
