overrated. People are coming here for nostalgia. Food is overpriced. Service sucks. Owner, if he's the owner, is rude. I even saw him at Costco and he's just as rude.

Please has been a landmark in Guelph for many years. It’s always been a little bit on the pricey side for what you got and I would post Covid pricing a small cheeseburger with tax is $6.50 almost. By the time you add fries and a drink, it’s expensive, but a nice treat once or twice a summer! My Pontiac seemed attention parked in front lol

I ordered the veggie hot dog though I'm skeptical whether it was actually veggie. It tasted, smelled and looked exactly like the regular hot dogs you get in a 12 pk at the grocery store. They used 1 ½ wieners to make it fit a "footlong" hot dog bun.Also ordered onion rings which were very good. Total for both was almost $14 so probably won't be back for that reason. Otherwise, neat little place that will transport you back to the 50s as soon as you walk through their door.Vegetarian options: Veggie dog

OK so I've been here a couple times now and enjoy the vintage vibes this place gives. My grandparents introduced me to this place because they came when they were my age (this place has been here since the dinosaurs) but that's the amazing part of it. It's still here for generations to enjoy ! They only have hot dogs, hamburgers, fries and milkshakes but that's all you need really. Dining is outside. Or eat in your car. There's a huge parking lot. I can tell regulars enjoy this place and locals. I like coming here every once in awhile when the weather is nice. Would recommend trying if you're out for a cruise and want a quick bite and some picnic table eats.

Great place for lunch, it's an old fashioned fast food joint.The "12" Chilli dog tasted great, except it was only 9"A little bit of false advertising, but it tasted good so I still give 4 stars.The Milkshake was PHENOMENAL!!!The man behind the counter was super friendly

Rocky’s is legendary. It’s been around for a long time (1951). It has delicious food. I tried the famous 12” chili dog and it’s amazing.There is only outdoor seating. About 9 picnic tables and 9 benches. All pet dogs are welcome, they even give a few small dog treats! It’s not open during winter. Only mid March to mid October. They are closed holidays.Vegetarian options: There’s a veggie dog, poutine, onion rings and fries.Kid-friendliness: All the food is kid friendly.Parking: Parking right around the restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: There’s one step to go inside to order but you can go up to the picnic tables easily.

Great as always. You stay open for 75 years if you're not great.

Food is exactly what you'd expect from a place like this. Ordered a chili dog and poutine. Poutine was made with real cheese curds, but the cup makes it hard to mix things around - not a big deal since I just dumped the cup into the plate the hotdog comes on. Fries are cooked well and gravy is delicious.The chili doesn't have any meat in it, but it tastes good. The hotdog was cooked well and the bread was crisp and fresh.The men behind the counter were very nice to me. It's a must visit in Guelph just for the vibes and experience. Don't go on a rainy day unless you like to eat in your car because there is no interior seating!

I couldn’t believe how skinny the wiener was and it was served on a huge bun, I could hardly taste the wiener . I certainly won’t be back?
