Favorite Hot Dog Stand in New England?
(From Our Questions and Answers Feature)
What do you consider to be the best hot dog stand in New England? Are there any favorites that you go back to as often as possible? Two of my favorites are Al's Hot Dog Stand in Naugatuck, CT, and Simco's in Mattapan. I also like George's Coney Island in Worcester, but they don't have outdoor dining (unless you sit on the curb out front).

Definitely Fred's Franks in Wakefield off of Rt. 128! This place is quite literally a stand but their hot dogs are AMAZING! And you get to choose from a bunch of delicious sauces that go with it. With or without the sauces, however, it's a hit. Try it if you haven't already.

I haven't been to many, but I'd be surprised if anything comes close to Speed's Dogs in Newmarket Square, Boston.

I haven't been to many either, but I'd say Simco's is my favorite.

Fred's Frank's is hands down the best! From the screwed up system of ordering, paying and getting your roll to the sadness when you realize you've come to the last bite... The whole experience is a 10...

Definitely The Dog House in Milford, N.H. This place is a hidden gem, with everything from veggie dogs to ostrich burgers!

The Glenwood in Hamden, CT. Flame-broiled Hummel's dogs made in New Haven. Great onion rings. A truly unique ordering system that adds to the overall experience.

Another vote for Fred's. They're at the intersection of 128 and 129, on the traffic circle, right at the head of Lake Quannapowitt. They cook the dogs over apple wood. I think that's what makes the difference.
