This place is such a gem. First off, the staff is so kind and helpful. They took their time to answer our questions and weren’t indifferent like a lot of staff at other places usually are. They seem like they actually care to have their customers have a good time. Secondly, the design of the place was very cute. They had great hot dog themed wall art and even alternates the color of their chip bags. Lastly, the hot dogs are delicious. With your basic hot dog starting at $1.99 and $5 for a combo, it’s very affordable. The only criticism I would say I had was that the hot dogs weren’t hot enough. When we ate them, they were only warm, maybe a little less than that. Next time, I’ll ask them about that and see if they can toast the buns and grill the dog.

Cute little place with great hot dogs. We tried out the poutine dog, the butter chicken and the Chicago dog and they were all fantastic. Tried out their sparkling lemonade too which was also good. The only issue we had was some confusion about what we ordered but they sorted it out. It seemed like the owner/manager was still training the other staff but they could've been a bit friendlier.

When you’re just craving a really good hot dog, this is the place to go! They do however have a ton of other great looking items on the menu too - including some very good looking veggie burgers & ice cream! The food, service, and atmosphere all deserved 5 stars in my opinion so idk really where to account for my only complaint so I gave the overall review 4/5 which is so contradictory to all my 5 stars. Every time I go I special request no ketchup on my hotdog and plain salt on my fries and every time they either put ketchup on my dog or seasoning salt on my fries - they always make it right but still, it’s just something that prevents a perfect score all around. The atmosphere is just adorable with all its curated hot dog themed pics and diner feel - I love the way their bar stools are the colour of condiments yellow for mustard, green for relish, and red for ketchup! Very well thought out details - they’ve done a great job! The staff are always welcoming and friendly and, as I mentioned earlier, if they mess up the order they’ll very graciously make it right.

A nice cozy place with great atmosphere and friendly service. I had the coney dog and it was amazing. I'm looking forward to going back so I can try out the rest of the menu items

Really enjoyed my dinner here! The Tokyo Teriyaki Dog and Coney Island Dog were delicious, the onion rings were crispy, and the peri peri fries were full of flavor. The homemade sauces are amazing, and the staff were very friendly and polite. Will definitely visit again!

The Hot Dog Shack has a variety of unique hotdogs and other classic’s (refer to menu photos) The atmosphere is very chill (peaceful) but obviously with the classic sounds of the kitchen behind the wall. I’d say there’s 20 seats available for eating at the restaurant. The staff worker that took my order was polite and had a good understanding of how to describe each item off of the menu. I got my order to go and it was pretty fast. Everything was cooked proper and tasted amazing! Price was around $12 CAD for each combo I ordered. (See photo for what I ordered) The fries are amazing I highly recommend to try a different couple of menu items. Great for a date ! Get two different items then split it . Try them out I can promise they will do not disappoint!

Stopped by for dinner and had a fantastic experience. The Nashville Inferno Chicken Burger was bold, juicy, and packed with heat, while the nacho fries were loaded, crispy, and bursting with flavor. Every bite felt well thought out and satisfying. The house-made sauces were a big highlight and paired perfectly with the food. On top of that, the team was warm and approachable, making the visit even more enjoyable. Definitely a spot I’d be happy to return to.
