THE BEST HOT DOGS IN ATLANTIC COUNTY, NEW JERSEY

THE JAWS DOG

THE MARGATE DAIRY BAR

A great friend and food and beverage expert told us, he asks for the bun to be toasted extra. This adds flavor and extra texture.

WATER DOG SMOKE HOUSE

Simply put, everything they do … They do very well. No exception with their classic hot dog, prepared to perfection.

Here are two versions, classic and chili dogs. As always, their attention to detail, product and bun are just perfect

RUBY’S DINETTE

Located within Resorts Casino Hotel Atlantic City.

The 1950’s vibe is just outstanding.

For burgers, shakes and yes … HOT DOGS, give this fun establishment a try. You’ll really enjoy the experience.

AUNTIE ANNE’S

Mays Landing, New Jersey

Their famous Mini Pretzel Dog. We love this twist.

This is my favorite pretzel of all time. Combining it with a hot dog is pure simplicity and genius.

Look how good this looks. It tastes even better.

DAIRY QUEEN CHILI DOG

Somers Point, New Jersey.

Let’s start with the fact that the quality of Dairy Queen food items is excellent and always underrated … because when you think of Dairy Queen … you think of ice cream and milk shakes.

MAD DOG MORGANS

Atlantic City, New Jersey.

This is a great establishment (food truck) that you will see at Tanger Outlets.

Owned and operated by Blake Morgan, his Mad Dog Morgans pops-up at the Atlantic City Convention Center, too.

Here’s a peek at one of their hot dogs:

JOHNNY ROCKETS
Bally's Hotel & Casino
Atlantic City, New Jersey

This establishment has earned its place on our prestigious list because of its famous ”The Rocket Chili Dog.”

It’s all burgers, hot dogs, shakes and fries in a cool vibe, retro setting.

They serve the world famous Nathan’s Hot Dogs (seen directly below).

Johnny Rocket’s milk shakes are sheer perfection and the whole presentation will transform you back to the 1950’s.

NATHAN’S FAMOUS HOT DOGS

The Boardwalk in Atlantic City.

No list would be complete with the World’s Famous Nathan’s Hot Dogs.

Nathan’s has been located on the boardwalk in Atlantic City for generations.

Nathan’s always been synonymous for the highest quality, beef hot dogs and they just love pairing this with their Golden crinkle-cut french fries.

FUN FACT: 106 years ago today, this wonderful hot dog (below) would have cost you .10 cents.
