Crown jewel and staple of Downers Grove for years. Great hot dog stand that serves all the favorites. They always give you a healthy amount of fries with your order and they taste fantastic. You can Scooby size your meal and then you get a ridiculous amount of fries. I love their 2 hot dog special with fries and a drink. Bonus, this place has Green River in their fountain drinks. Enjoy!
It's exactly what a hot dog joint should be. Every flavor what you would expect. Even the texture on the fries was spot on.
Best fries around! ❤️
(Hand cut, Skins on)
Chicago style hot dogs and char burgers are great as well!
A staple hot dog joint in Downers Grove.
Basic fast food type interior with red/black/white 50's interior.
Order at the counter and dispense your own sodas.
Eat in, a few picnic tables outside or'to go'
Excellent service and smoking hot waitress!! Food was also top quality ✨🍔
This place is quite delicious, or at least their italian beef and fries are, since that's all I got while I was in the area on business. The meat was juicy and tasty, and all of the ingredients were good quality. Make sure you get it wet, with mozzarella cheese and both hot and sweet peppers.
friendly staff, food was good hot and fresh.
Lobby could have been a little cleaner.
Good place to satisfy a craving for Chicago-style hot dogs, but not somewhere we would go out of our way to go back to during the middle of the week. Two hot dogs and a large fry was $11–fries were crispy and salty, an 8/10, and we would give the hot dogs an 8/10. No indoor dining right now, we took our meal to go and ate at home. Fun exterior!
Very nice and clean location and I've been to 3 Scooby's now! Their food is always great! I do think it's strange they separated the fries from the hot dogs. Normally when I order at the one on grand ave near Elmhurst I'll order the double dog fries included and they just put them in the same wrapper with fries on top. This one wastes the wrappers by separating all 3 items. But hey if they don't want to save money then it's cool lol. I guess there's a lot of ocd people who don't like their food items touching in that town 🤣
Love the location, vibe, and quality of the food! Little disappointed in the prices however. Spent 12 bucks on two dogs and fries so felt a little out of the price range. After I ordered I looked closer at the menu and there was a deal for that plus a drink that the waitress didn’t tell me about.
All in all would go back, but really only because of the convenient location.
Burned a Time-Out and dipped into Scooby’s for a quick snack this afternoon. We are visiting the area and were drawn in by the nostalgic look and neon vapor. We enjoyed the hand cut fries of the large variety. Would have preferred them to be a little crispier, they were a lil limp, but that’s a personal preference. Place was very clean with the exception of the floor mat by the soda machine. That was so sticky it nearly pulled my shoes off when I walked away. Cool little spot, bet the pork missiles are de’lish.
This a great lunch spot serving up Chicago Style hot dogs, Italian beef, burgers, shakes and more. I've been coming back for over 15 years. The prices are fair and the staff is friendly. The retro dining area is clean and well lit. If you're looking for a chill lunch spot give them a try.
A good hot dog stand with a pretty decent gyros. Service was quick, and the food was hot and tasty.
The food was amazing!! I had a brat with fries and a bottle of Rootbeer. ( broke that Chi town tradition...no ketsup on the dog...but in my defense...it was a brat!! Hehe)My son had a Polish sausage and fries with a bottle of Green River soda. I was a little disappointed that my fries seemed to be in little pieces instead of whole fries...my son's fries were fine. They tasted good...just would have liked whole fries.. overall, my experience was great. Wonderful customer service, great atmosphere and great food...if you are looking for all beef Vienna dogs and a true Chicago atmosphere in the burbs...this is the place to go...they even have Italianbeefs and more...check them out
