8 Best Hot Dogs near St. Charles

“Their burgers are consistently good, they are polite, and they don’t take forever. That’s a rarity these days… the double onion mushroom melt is really good!“

“Stopped by for dinner while out of town for a work trip. I walked over from our hotel, ordered, and walked the food back. Happily sat down to enjoy dinner with my wife only to find that her bunless burger was missing the beef! They remade it for me after I walked back. The food tasted great, but what a frustrating experience!“

“Visiting from Atlanta, I stopped in at this little spot on Woodson Road and it did not disappoint. The building itself is colorful and hard to miss, with the Vienna Beef sign proudly up front—so you already know the hot dogs are going to be legit. I ordered a Chicago-style dog and it came out exactly how it should: poppy seed bun, loaded with onions, sport peppers, tomato, and a big crunchy pickle spear. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. No ketchup in sight (as it should be).

Also tried the burger and fries—burger was juicy with that classic griddled flavor, and the fries were hot and crispy, served in a generous portion. They even hit that sweet spot where the fries stay crisp under ketchup.
Overall, this place gives you everything you want from a true hot dog and burger stand: quick service, affordable prices, and quality food that tastes homemade but with that old-school Chicago stand character. If you’re craving a real Chicago dog or just a solid burger and fries, this spot is worth the stop.

“Awesome place. Had their Italian beef combo. The bread was good and the meat was very flavorful and juicy. The guy threw some hot peppers on there which made it fantastic. Even the fries were great. They were seasoned and hot. Great customer service and is definitely a place you should try.“

“I am on the city side of St. Louis but made the drive out here because my friend was wanted Korean hot dogs. We stuck with the hot dogs and almost tried the chicken wings. The menu is straightforward with different flavors you can mix and match on the outside and inside. I got half cheese and half meat and it was yummy but nothing mind blowing. The inside is clean with a modern Korean vibe and there is actually a lot of seating, probably over thirty spots. Ordering is quick and simple and the staff was really friendly. I saw Koreans hanging out of all age ranges.“

“Five Guys came through again with another juicy burger with lettuce, tomato, and lots of grilled toppings!❤️❤️“

“My first time there. we got it to go. It was a little above average, but not what it has been hyped up to be. My burger had hard edges, beyond crispy. Fries were hard and no salt. shake was the best part of the meal. $60 for three meals is way overpriced. And they initially packed the shakes in the sane bag as the hot food! I had them take them out and put into a drink carrier. Who puts cold and hot together? It is adequate, but I will not go back for those prices.“

“Staff was very kind and put extra effort into making special shakes for my kids. They even replaced a shake that was accidentally thrown away and not finished that one of my kids was SO upset about. Thank you for your kindness on 6/15/22.“
