MENU

Comments: The menu is essentially $5 hot dogs that you can pile high with as many of the 50+ toppings they offer on their menu. They also have fries, tater tots, and falafel.

Recommendations: Vegan hot dog with garbanzo bean chili, portobello mushrooms, and potato chips. Also, if you hit their pre-7pm happy hour, you can get a giant miller lite for just $2.

Number of vegan options: ****

Straight from the mouth of the Happy Dog: "Good news to report on the vegan front - we fry the tots and fries in vegetable oil, we'll have plenty of falafel, and we will be replacing the vegetarian Morningstar Sausage with a Vegan Italian Sausage produced by Field Roast in time for your event. The Field Roast sausage is approximately a quarter pound (so bigger than the Morningstar dog) and tastes great. Here's a link to Field Roast's facebook page for more info: Field Roast"

NOTE: You may want to verbally point out to the bartenders/servers that you are asking for a veggie hotdog. There IS a checkbox, but two of us ordered them yesterday, and they served us regular hotdogs, despite the fact that we'd checked off the veggie box. IF YOUR HOT DOG IS PINK, IT IS NOT A VEGGIE HOTDOG. The veggie hotdogs are actually veggie sausages and are grayish with bits and pieces of spices in them.

Quality of food: ****

Ambience: **** (Huge bar with a delightful mix of hipsters and non-hipsters, and music and trivia and other fun events)

Cost: $

Under what circumstances would I find myself here: You had a shitty day at work and want to drink and eat your sorrows away with some super-cheap beer and gratuitously sloppy hot dogs.
