If you are looking for a classic, nostalgic spot for a great meal, Coney Island Drive-Inn is a must-visit. I recently stopped by and had a fantastic experience.
I ordered two footlongs, and both were excellent. The highlight for me was the coleslaw—it was exactly how I like it: sweet with a subtle oniony/spicy kick, and thankfully not overly saucy, so it didn’t make the bun soggy. My second footlong with chili and onions was also delicious and hit the spot.
One thing that really sets this place apart is that you can specifically request all-beef hotdogs. For me, that makes a huge difference in the quality and flavor of the meal.
The atmosphere is just as good as the food. The restaurant is filled with kitchy and nostalgic items that give it a great vibe without feeling overcrowded. Most importantly, everything was very clean, which is something I always look for in places with this kind of vintage decor.
To top it off, the staff were incredibly friendly, and they offer free refills (you just have to ask!). If you want a solid hot dog in a clean, welcoming environment, definitely check them out!

Great dogs and sausages. Love the fries as well. Not much to say here other than this is a great place for quality gourmet dogs and links. Try one of their dogs as listed on the menu or make your own.

This place is so much fun! I ordered Norm’s Bigg Dog, the Ruben dog, and a corn dog – all amazing but this was the best stinkin corn dog I’ve ever had in my life! The place is clean, the service is great, and I had a blast just checking out the decor and bathrooms you’ve got to check this place out for yourself.

OK went in to get my usual Chicago dog, which is awesome and saw a sign said Friday night fish box large fries, fish coleslaw. It was so good. They have it every Friday night so this will be my Friday night Spot for fish

The Coney was what you would expect. The chili cheese fries could have been good if they didn’t take old fries and refry them. I know the casher knows thats what they did because he asked the 2 other tables how their food was but avoided me. I would only go if you are jonesing for a coney, it will satisfy that itch.

Super clean spot with a really friendly vibe! I went for two of the short all-beef dogs—the Reuben and the Slaw dog—just to mix it up, and both were delicious, but I really liked the Slaw dog. Decided to try the poutine fries for the first time too, and wow… definitely a win. Can’t wait to come back and work my way through more of the menu! I have my eye on that Gator dog next!
