Spike's Junkyard Dogs

What a find! Spikes has amazing all night type of food. The dogs are great but so are the chicken fingers and the rest of their menu. It is a very small place but conveniently located near a few bars and it's great for a between bar stop for a quick bite.

Certainly the best dogs I've ever had in Boston. They have many different types of dogs, with combinations of toppings you would never think would be good on a dog, but really are amazing! If you don't like any of their combinations, you can always get a Sinatra dog, which is "have it your way" and put whatever you want on there. I did partake in the 6 dog challenge. If you are to do this, I would suggest regular beef dogs and not veggie. Although the veggie dogs are good, after 4 or so without any toppings, they can become sickening. Basically, this place is fun, and if you haven't been, go try it!

I *love* this place, and I'm a vegetarian. Go figure. Fortunately for me, you can get any of their hotdog creations with a veggie dog, so you won't feel left out with your group of meat-eating friends. The curly fries are great as well, especially with cheese. Don't expect gourmet, just a good price and great food.

PROS: Cool hotdog concoctions, and veggie dogs, too!
CONS: None

This place has the best hot dogs I have ever had for sure. They have very creative ones too, such as the pizza dog, the Reuben, the Russian, etc. They also fill you up pretty well. The ingrediants are always fresh and the people are always really nice. One of my favorite things about Spike's, though, is their infamous hot dog challenge wherein if you eat 6 dogs or more, you win a teeshirt and you get your picture on the wall. If you eat over 13 beef dogs or 9 veggie dogs you get a tshirt, the picture, and your dogs are free. You do, however, only have 1.5 hours to do it. Bon Appetite!
