35 Best Hot Dogs in Philadelphia

“Claire was awesome upstairs at the bar!!! Her recommendations were amazing for food and spirits!“

“Johnnys Hots is the best Fish Cakes and everything else is the best. Prices are grest. Love their food.“

“We love it! Kids love the colors and variety of baked goods! Clean and friendly staff!“

“So freakin' good! From the cheesy curly fries, to the delicious funnel cake, to the tasty milkshake topped with the best whipped cream. Yummm!“

“Iv never had a bad option from the hot or cold sandwich’s to the pizza everything is really good. Today I got the Paulie which blew me away and might just be one of the best steaks in the area(yeah big claim but it holds its own). This place is an absolute gem, I only write reviews when meals knock my socks off.“

“First time there. It was awesome. Burgers are to die for!!“

“I have celiac disease and was at a medical conference in the conference center above Reading Market. Having celiac disease makes dining out that conference is an adventure. The staff were very helpful courteous. The food came quickly and was hot. I would recommend trying a corn dog as well as the poutine.“

“Came when they opened and apparently donuts were still being made at that time. Picked from what's available which was a pistachio and a milk tea donut. Only the second time I have had a mochi donut and these were more airy than the ones I had from Virginia. Not sure if a true difference or whether these were freshly made versus one's that were brought to me and I waited until much later to eat them. Anyway, both donuts ordered were delicious. Also got an egg sandwich which was a TON of egg. It was fine but I think I was hungry and over ordered. I would have been fine with just donut and coffee.“

“This offers fast food like hot dogs, sausages, burgers, and cheeseburgers for prices lower than most airport places. Pepsi products and huge homemade muffins. The food is just as great as all convenience store grilled foods. It is just steps from baggage claim and zone 7 for ride share pick up.“

“I’ve been a loyal customer of this pretzel factory since the day it opened. I admire the company for consistently providing a variety of hot, fresh pretzels, including unique stuffed options. Although I don't indulge in pretzels for myself very often, I occasionally purchase some for friends and family, including the 10 I bought today to share with homeless individuals in need of a little pick-me-up. The friendly and helpful staff members at this location have always impressed me. With ample parking available, the convenience of visiting this spot is unmatched. I would love to see the addition of a vegan stuffed pretzel on the menu, despite the potential challenges in catering to a niche market. Who knows, perhaps there is a demand for such a product that is waiting to be tapped.“

“Stopped by on our way out of Philly after locals recommended the place. The cheesesteak and brisket & cheese sandwiches were delicious. Loved both but slight preference on the cheesesteak. The half and half is perfect! Staff is very friendly and kind. I would absolutely come back if I’m in Philly again.“

“breakfast is extremely reliable, delicious, and ordinary. What makes this particular spoon stick out? the incredible service. Sue and her husband run a tight efficient and friendly shift. Sue greets every customer as if she has known them for years and for a large majority of her patrons this is true. A center city staple.“

“the foods fantastic and that kitchen staff is just the bees knees :)“

“good spot to do that..need more green peppers“

“awesome vegetarian spot with lots of delicious vegan options - all meat is plant-based. great lunch special deals (its hard to find a meal for <$10 anywhere these days!). general tso, sesame, salt & pepper tofu/chicken dishes are fantastic. the owner is super nice as well - Soko is the best! cash only“

“Pretzels 🥨 are our Favorite snack yum“

“I was just putting in a location tag“

“The best and fresh pretzels, with the best management. Felicia Sweeney is amazing with great customer and delivery service and buffalo chicken pretzels.“

“Five Stars and a Salty Sweet Symphony!
From the moment I stepped into this pretzel paradise, I knew I was in for something special. The service? Lightning fast! I was greeted with a warm smile and my order was taken and fulfilled with impressive efficiency. No long waits, just pure, unadulterated pretzel anticipation.
And oh, the pretzels! Forget everything you thought you knew about these twisted treats. I'm a self-proclaimed pretzel aficionado, having sampled countless variations from the usual suspects like Auntie Anne's. But these? These are on a whole other level. The magic formula they've concocted is nothing short of culinary genius.
The texture is simply divine – perfectly soft and chewy, with just the right amount of give. Each bite is a harmonious blend of sweet and salty, a symphony that dances across your taste buds. The balance is impeccable, avoiding the cloying sweetness that plagues so many other pretzel offerings. This is true artistry, a testament to the dedication and passion poured into every single pretzel.
I could taste the freshness, the quality of the ingredients. It was clear that these weren't just mass-produced snacks, but carefully crafted delights. The golden-brown exterior gave way to a warm, pillowy interior, creating a sensory experience that left me wanting more.
Beyond the exceptional food and service, the cleanliness of the space was truly commendable. Every surface gleamed, and the atmosphere was bright and inviting. It's clear that the staff takes pride in maintaining a spotless environment, adding to the overall positive experience.
This isn't just a place to grab a quick snack; it's a destination for pretzel lovers. If you're looking for fast service, absolutely delicious pretzels that redefine the standard, and a clean, welcoming space, look no further. This is a five-star experience from start to finish. I'll be back, and I'll be bringing friends!“

“pizza pretzel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“I've been coming to this business for years with my family. My wife and I have had the pleasure of getting to know the staff more then just "hello and goodbye'. I can tell you all day long how they've made my grandchildren's birthdays special. Now, I'm not a facebook guy. I made this account, not only because my wife didn't want to get involved, but because I wasn't going to let some piece of trash on here bash this company and their great staff. These are great people and a lot of us customers know that. So I just wanted to write a post and let Jason, Erika, Alex, Dawn, Alex, Scott, and Pat know how much I appreciate their service and not to let these trolls on here get to them. Keep it up guys and ignore the haters!“

“friendly staff, yummy pretzels“

“A great fast-food restaurant in the city.“

“that they are open with hot pretzels“

“Typically I have always experienced a feeling of appreciation when I visit the Philly Pretzel Factory in Bear, DE or Middletown, DE BUT, today my visit to the Middletown, DE location left me feeling unappreciated and in fact like I was being a pest. I stopped into the store in order to redeem my ‘celebrate the Eagles win’ coupon. I purchased the 5 pretzels and received 5 free. The pretzels were cold and hard. I complained to both the cashier and the gentleman making the pretzels and was told they were just made. I begged their difference and the gentleman gave me an unfriendly attitude and said he’d just put them back in the oven and they’d be just fine! Needless to say they weren’t. They didn’t taste as fresh as usual nor were they soft. In my opinion this visit was totally unacceptable!!!“

“Im the pretzel man“

“Pretzels here are great!! I’m originally from Philadelphia relocated to the south my family and I coming up here a lot and we always have to stop and get one and only original Philly pretzels!!“

“I was dreading eating dinner at the game due to lack of time, but when I saw this new place we tried it out and was not disappointed! The shack stack is one of the best burgers I've ever tasted and I will happily eat more every time I return. Everything is overpriced at the Wells Fargo Center- but this is the first time I felt like it was all worth it.“

“I've always thought that Five Guys had excellent burgers and fries. I went to this particular store one day at lunch and I have to say out of all the Five Guys I have been to, this Five Guys is something special. Not only was my lunch the best burger I have ever had but the service and the atmosphere was second to none. I would recommend this place 100%. This was hands down the best experience I've ever had at a fast food burger place, I guess that is why 3 weeks later im still thinking about it😄. Thank you again.“

“beautiful place for kids delicious pretzel“

“We ordered pretzels for my sister's wedding, and honestly Josh made the whole thing so easy. The wedding was in Philly and we had a ton of out-of-towners coming in, so we really wanted to give them a taste of a real Philly pretzel. As anyone from the area knows, if it's not fresh, it's not the same. Josh went above and beyond and baked them later in the day so they'd be coming straight out of the oven. He delivered them on time and bagged them up so our guests could scoop them up, throw some mustard on one of those bad boys, and get a real taste of Philadelphia. If you've got an event coming up, seriously call Josh. He gets the job done the right way with great service and an amazing product. Go Birds!“

“I was in town on business dining options in this area have a lot to be desired. You can eat cheap or you can eat expensive the skies the limit I was looking for a good hamburger and some fresh french fries five guys is a winner every time my patty melt was delicious juicy flavorful well seasoned, and the french fries are to die for fresh delicious tasty they also have the best soda fountain around the Barqs cherry cream soda is so refreshing almost addictive
overall, my dinner was delicious and satisfying. The price is a little steep but then again you are getting fresh never frozen quality food with a happy smile…. Enjoy !!!“

“Ended more help the Penn Relays are in town super busy“

“These are not the soft pretzels of my youth, but the closest available. They are $1.25 each and squeeze bottles of mustard are free to use. Beware if they offer you a small container of mustard,that’s another $1.25. You’ll never eat Auntie Anne’s again.“

“Had a great experience at Five Guys tonight! They let me in at 9:59 right before closing at 10, and the whole crew was still so friendly, welcoming, and professional. The restaurant was very clean, and the customer service was amazing from everyone working. Extra special shoutout to Tay the manager and the entire crew for being so kind and positive even right at closing time. You can tell they truly care about their customers. Definitely appreciated and definitely deserving of 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
