Leeway Franks

I admit I tried Leeway after I moved away from Lawrence because of their Twitter. Now it's one of the spots I have to hit when I'm in Lawrence or passing through ( sorry burger stand). The first thing I tried was the Reuben Dog and I always hope it'll be on the menu again when I'm in town. It was AMAZING. if you're not eating right away, request the wet stuff on the side so you don't get soggy (I don't care and I think it's part of the experience YMMV). This is just a quality beef frank with great flavour. I've tried salad, fries and tots and they're all good. The salad is an experience. It's not your regular side salad and is made with high quality ingredients. Fries I didn't find super exciting. They're hearty, natural tasting and not overly salted. They're definitely not bad--i think I'm not particularly excited about fries in general. Tots are usually a little salty for me but I tend to err on the side of undersalting. They're perfectly cooked and crispy. Again I'm just not excited about tots in general. Packaging is effective and conservative and there is no excess waste. Support Indigenous business and please tip staff!

There are not enough good things I can say about this place! The employees and owner are friendly and helpful. The menu has so many items that I want to try I will have to go back at least 10 times to try them all! I got the Roast Beef and Cheese sandwich, my daughter got the Plain Dog from the kids menu and my mom got the Double Patty Melt. The sandwich was phenomenal, the meat was freshly cooked, well seasoned and the portions were very generous. I got the Poutine fries and they did not disappoint. My daughter can be picky but she ate everything on her plate. Go check this place out, it's a smaller store front and their butcher shop is 2 doors down. All their meats are locally sourced and absolutely worth it!

Went to this place after the basketball game it was amazing. With great fresh burgers and hotdogs. I got a pizza burger which literally tasted like a pizza! A great small cafe that has fresh homemade sausages. This has made the list of places to go when in Lawerence.

The breakfast burrito special on the weekends is 🔥!! It’s so much food, and all delicious. I would love to see a vegetarian option for it, however they obviously specialize in meats so I am glad that they do have a decent vegetarian menu otherwise.

I’ve been craving a hotdog and they are made by their own butcher Lee. This was my first visit. Alec was friendly and shared with me some great blues. The restaurant was spotless and had a modern vibe. My next visit will be a freshly ground hamburger and then the next treat will be posole! I had no idea this place was here. The butcher is next door with fresh meat. Thank you Alec!

Stopped by to check out the Leeway Franks chili dog. I've been traveling around trying out chili dogs for awhile now and I was anxious to try this one. The chili dog had a beef frankfurter, yellow mustard, chili, diced white onion and a bun. The best part of the dish was the all beef frankfurter itself. It had a good skin that snapped when you bit into it. The chili was decent. The onion seemed fresh and the mustard gave the dish that vinegary, mustardy note in the back. Overall a good chili dog! #KCFoodie #CulinaryAdventures #ExploreYourCity #LawrenceKS #NatApproved

They make their Frank's and meat products on site. They are delicious.i have had a frank, a special Cuban beans and cod and today the burger. And lots of tots. The prices seem high, until you consider they grind the meat and make the franks, sausages, brats and hamburgers on site. Not frozen, not cheap meats. Go eat!

Great little place to eat with a big menus. The staff was professional, fun and customer friendly. The food was very good also. Give it a shot
