Fun little spot for a low key meal that is good quality and fresh, from people who are happy to have you visit and take pride in their work. Apple turnovers are great and the sausage dog was enough to turn my vegetarian heart evil for just one meal. Totally worth it, too 😁

It's been years since I've had a hot dog from the Dog House and they have remained the same ever since. I chose the drive-thru for service and it took awhile because two vehicles were in front of me. The service and food was good.

For hot dogs, this place is very good. Fries could have been a bit crispier. Their tail wagger special is the way to go, 2 dogs, fries and a medium soft drink.

We ordered the Tailwagger Meal, Bulldog style and the Boxer style. One is with slaw chili mustard and onions and the other is the same but without slaw. The Tailwagger is 2 hotdogs, medium fry and a LARGE drink!! They have crushed ice and crinkle cut fries and all beef hotdogs!! The chili is flavorable and goes perfect with the hotdogs. They also have sausage dogs, BBQ, and Brunswick stew. Kids menu is a too. The only thing is the the drive thru can take long a time. There is a table in the back on the outside of the establishment where you can eat. There is no dine in experience.

Everything was great. Hush puppies were awesome and crisp. The fries are old school and the turnover was the perfect touch. I will return!

If you like hot dogs this is the place for you. They have good hotdogs and fries. They are a little slow ,but it is definitely worth it. I like the sweet tea. I don’t know what or if the other food is like. I always just get two hot dogs with fries and a sweet tea. I like it a lot. I would highly recommend this to anyone who likes hotdogs. The dog house is a great place to do.

The hotdogs are good but that brunswick stew is to die for!! If you have not had, you should give it a try! Staff if always friendly and seem to take the extra precautions to deal with covid.

The staff is very nice and helpful, they also make sure that they get your order right. The food is always hot and fresh. Overall the doghouse is a damn good place to grab a quick bite to eat with family and friends. Definitely worth the five stars.

Good hotdogs and fries. I wish they would salt the fries and quit charging me for cheese on my dogs. David Warren
