What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Wienerlicious is a fun, kitschy roadside attraction with surprisingly good hot dogs and friendly service. While some find it a bit pricey for a casual bite, the unique atmosphere and customizable options make it a memorable stop. Many praise the "juiciest" dogs and unique toppings, though a few mention average taste or unexpected fees.
"Super fun, very busy hot dog stand that makes every dish to order with high quality ingredients. The staff are welcoming and efficient. They continue to smile even when busy. Super clean too. They serve 400+ hot dogs every day!"
Deborah Rabine
"See a big Weiner on the side of the road that adorns a building then of course you have to stop. Small spot with indoor seating, fast service and pretty good dogs. A little pricey for a single hot dog but you get a chance to snag a t-shirt too. Worth getting the shirt to bring home."

"Very good food and very helpful staff. I have kids with food allergies and they were very helpful answering questions about what is in their items. They have the labels from original boxes they let me look at to make sure no ingredients would cause problems. Also the food was delicious. We had the bratwurst, Italian sausage, mackinaw dog, fries and strawberry milkshake. The milk shake had lots of fresh strawberry pieces in it, so good."

My 7 Favorite Restaurants To Experience In Mackinaw City
Wienerlicious is easy to spot as the building has the world’s largest wiener sitting on its roof. I have to say, standing in front of the building in the correct position to take a picture that looks like you’re eating the giant hot dog is half the fun. What brought me to Wienerlicious is that my husband is a die-hard hot dog fan.
