Woofies has been the favored St. Louis area spot for Chicago-style Vienna beef hot dogs for more than 30 years, perennially winning media best-ofs and capturing the hearts and stomachs of such local luminaries as sportscaster Bob Costas, who has been known to order them shipped long distance. The place has limited inside seating and just a few outdoor tables, so takeout is a popular option. Menu standouts besides the basic Chicago-style Woofie Dog include: a grilled New York Nathan's-style variety, chili pie (Fritos and hot dogs covered with chili, melted cheese, onion and pickle), and grilled Polish sausage. Burgers and beef tamales are among other rib-sticking choices, while drink options include raspberry tea and lemonade. No alcohol available. Serving lunch and dinner Mon–Sat. Closed Sun.
