About

The thing that separates Byron's Hot Dogs from all the similar hot dog stand restaurants in Chicago is that their food is actually good, especially for the price. And, when you consider accolades such as being showcased on the White House lawn for a Chicago dog picnic (and articles in the Sun Times about their trip to the White House), being featured in an episode of "Chicago's Best", and being featured in GQ Magazine for "Best Fries" in America (February 2009), you know they're the best! With a huge selection of toppings for your dog, including a several types of peppers and original concoctions as well as the standards, Byron's can satisfy anyone with a taste for good short order food. The Byron's dog is a messy, five-napkin Vienna Beef frank that requires a two-handed pickup. But they do much more than just hot dogs; don't be afraid to try their Certified Angus Beef burgers or something else from their extensive menu like French fries or chili tamales. The scene at this Wrigley spot is Chicago dog-shack chic: bright yellow walls, a tiny counter, a grill and two beat-up, red picnic tables outside. There's no better place to enjoy a sausage than outside at the patio tables on a summer day.

  • People tell me that I have a big mouth but their Italian beef beat me and I had to stretch. There was plenty of beef and their peppers hot/sweet were plentiful. The staff is always great and helpful. You will have many great choices!

  • This is a classic Hot Dog stand loved by CUB fans! It is so much more with a variety of classic sandwiches and even salads. The staff is welcoming and helpful and special orders do not offer any problems. I love going!
