Walter's Hot Dogs - Mamaroneck

Walters has always been our favorite hotdog spot, and we always knew we wanted to incorporate them into our wedding weekend. We held our rehearsal party at our favorite ice cream shop on site at our venue, and served Walters as our dinner. I was so happy to finally show all my friends and family how delicious Walters is, SO many people went back for seconds. Working with their team was so easy and fun, we had the best experience and were so happy they could drive up to Suffield. As life-long fans, we were so grateful they were available on our wedding weekend. We highly recommend using their food truck for your next event!

This places calls out to your heart. But after you order. You quickly snap back to reality. They stand over you & wait for you to tip on the machine 22% minimum ($50 + $10tip). So decided to get the dogs in the raw package and see if they taste better at home. But while there try to capture the old school feeling with burnt potato puffs (they changed them to $7 tater tots). Pretzel dog w/ meatless chili & tasteless cheese. And a regular dog w/ more meatless chili. Then tried a Flat egg, chocolate chip float thingy. This place has fallen hard. And may close down sooner that later.

Ordered 48 doggies via Goldbelly.com. They arrived on time in ice packs in great condition. Very happy to be able to enjoy these super hot dogs hwew in Miami. I will follow the instructions for preparing the doggies in melted butter. Also great to have the musterd as well

The hotdogs are incredibly average. Not a fan of the texture either. I tried the french fries and those were also below average. Nothing special. The one unique item on the menu are the funnel cake sticks that sell at a robbery price of $7+ for a small amount.

It was love at 1st bite!! This place is a local staple, but somehow, I've missed the opportunity to take my son here until last nite. He has vowed never to eat a hot dog from anywhere but here again. He went ALL IN: chili dog, cheese fries, potatoe puffs, and an Arnold Palmer. Every morsel was devoured and thoroughly enjoyed. This will be his new pit stop on the way home when he visits my office. Seriously, if you have NEVER been put Walters on your list. it's got a great picnic vibe, the most reasonable prices I've seen in a while, and super family-friendly

Keeping in mind that star ratings are all relative, for a hot dog stand on the side of the road, this place is the best! I've been eating Walter's hot dogs since the early '80s, in the business is now a historic landmark, over 120 years old! They've expanded recently into food trucks (which provide an equally good dog) , and have a nice little seating area in the back picnic grounds.

Stop here for an interesting snack. We got the double, a single with no bun, small pigs in a blanket, churro fries, egg cream, and a root beer cowboy shake. The single was a complete waste, nothing to it is small and doesn't even taste that good. The egg cream is just strange, it's hard to describe, something that will be enjoyed by some and hated by others. The double was good with ketchup and mustard. The pigs in a blanket were actually very nice, the pastry that is used to wrap them is light and fluffy and just a hint of sweetness to match the savory in the hot dog. The churro fries were ok and more of a have to try it at least once, county fair, type thing. The cowboy shake was a complete waste it was thinner than most shakes that i have had, but the taste was definitely root beer as a shake so I do have to give them that. Unfortunately they were not offering the puffy dog of the mashed potato fries when we were here, we would have liked to try them.

First time here and we walked away impressed. Puffy dog was my personal favorite, but all were good. Fries were super crispy. They have parking in the back and a large outdoor eating area. Very family friendly, will have to come back to try their other milkshake flavors.

Bring back the potato puffs! The potato "spuds" are an unworthy substitute. Dogs are as good as usual!

Deemed by someone I trust in the food world as the "best hot dog ever" so it was no surprise she brought the whole family out here for a celebration. They were indeed incredible hot dogs! We went the whole day without being sure if they were pork, beef or veal and it turns out they are a combination of all three. We were able to take over most of that back picnic area for a big gathering and they brought out batches of the hot dogs whenever we needed them so they were always hot a fresh. Sliced down the middle, they are grilled perfectly. I am a ketchup and mustard girl (sue me) and the mustard here is just the absolute best hot dog mustard. Makes sense because it is home made! On top of hot dogs, we tried a few of their milkshakes and malted and I have never chugged something so fast. Get. The. Malted. While this is just a hot dog stand with lots of pic nic tables, the vibe is fantastic, clean and very spacious. A perfect stop if you are in the area and even for a day drive if you are craving a great hot dog and milkshake.

Truth be told, my party adventured here because of Kevin Dillon from Entourage. He grew up in Mamaroneck and mentioned how these are his favorite hot dogs in an interview. I can totally see why....and so reasonably priced. I ordered a Walter's single with "everything". It was very good, never had tried the split hot dog concept before. Because I ordered other items, I didn't order the double but in the future plan on trying the double and a chili dog. I also had the order of 5 Pigs In The Blanket. They did not disappoint! You can get 10 also if you plan on sharing. The Blanket was baked around the mini dog just perfect. A crust that was buttery and flaky. I dipped the pigs in mustard, just yummy . For sides, I had the curly fries and the new potato spuds. The fries were lightly seasoned, they were nice and crisp.The spuds were so good - like little mashed potatoes wrapped in a crispy potato coating - crunchy and delish. I had to have an old fashioned chocolate Egg Cream to drink. Ahhh, nostalgia at it's finest - highly recommend it. Quick friendly service , parking in the back of the stand and nice clean picnic tables with umbrellas to sit and enjoy the best hot dogs ever.

When my friend told me about this place, she had me at "hot dogs fried in butter!" These are the perfect decadent treat, and their consistently long line of loyal customers speaks for itself. I got the single hot dog with ketchup and mustard, and an order of curly fries. The hot dog was delicious, split in half on a toasty bun, and the fries were well seasoned. Their soda floats are also quite yummy. I will definitely stop here again if I'm in the area!

No list of the greatest hot dogs in New York, the USA, or the world is complete if it doesn't include Walter's somewhere on that list. It doesn't need to be first place - individual tastes can vary and the world has many good hot dogs - but if Walter's doesn't make the list, that food writer has failed you. Walter's hot dogs are unique and delicious - split down the middle and grilled in butter - and worthy of a side trip if you're near the area. Note to Walter's: bring back sweet spuds

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING! The food here is incredible, everything is. Got the pretzel bun hot dog with mustard, curly fries, and a peanut butter shake. Loved it all. The pretzel bread is amazing I could just eat it by itself. It inspired me to go to Wegmans and get their pretzel buns and have everything on that now. The hot dogs are very flavorful. The curly fries have wonderful texture and flavorful spices. The peanut butter shake was delicious. Got the whip, but you don't really need it. Their famous mustard is great, it is a bold flavor. I like mustard but I'm not a mustard person so instead of mustard on the hot dog I like it on the side and I can dip it. I also liked the combo of dipping mustard/mayo with the hot dog. I've been to their White Plains location too and got the salted caramel shake, my favorite. The shakes are flavorful, thick, and creamy. I have not tried the cowboy extra thick shake, but I can't image it even thicker. The past week they were having an issue with their vendor for the potato puffs so I could not get them yet. Also not sure if that affected their sweet potato fries because we just ordered the sweet potato fries at White Plains and they were regular sweet potato fries and not sweet pot waffle fries and were also just okay - good texture but not as amazing as everything else. The staff were friendly and the food was ready quickly. I don't think you'll find any better amazing cheap food anywhere else in Westchester. Lots of picnic tables and surprised to see they have a bathroom.

A staple establishment that's simple and to the point. Well made hotdogs that are not overshadowed by trendy social media gimmicky names or combinations that are "photo catchy" but disappointing to the taste buds.

Sorry as a kid from Brooklyn and having the original Nathan's in my backyard there is no comparison. So you split a dog in half and grill with butter.... unique,no not really. The idea of standing on line for an eternity does not make a hot dog. Give me a Hebrew National hot dog over a Walters. I gave 2 stars because the mustard was good

No question, the greatest hot dogs in the world. Four generations of our family have enjoyed Walter's hot dogs. They're amazing. Go to the original location! Double heavy...tell 'em I sent you!

* I would say the dogs were "good" . . . they weren't better than Nathan's in Coney Island and they're not better than Papaya King or Grey's Papaya. * Now the chocolate shake on the other hand? THAT was a damn good shake right there.

The last time I was here, I was in my single digits in age. As a kid, my father would take me here frequently enough and I always looked forward to it. I wasn't sure how they did it, but their hot dogs - sliced down the middle - were always excellent. Excellent to the point that even though it's been decades since I've been here, they were by default the place to where all hot dogs were compared. There just wasn't any better hot dogs anywhere except from Walters. Truth be told, as much as I always remembered this place fondly and this was the place where they made the hot dogs perfectly, I had forgotten this place existed in the physical form. I got older, 'Walters' became just another memory from my childhood. No matter where I went, no hot dog ever could or would compare to the ones I had from Walters when I was 4-8 years old, even though I stopped being taken here. It was always like this. Once in a while I'd remember this place, but always assumed it was gone like every other place from my childhood. I never even looked it up. Then by chance very recently, I was walking around White Plains and saw a hot dog place called 'Walters'. I wondered if it was the same owner(s) that relocated or something. Thanks to the power of smart phones, I was able to quickly look up that my original Walters was still in the same place in Mamaroneck with the same unique building that I remembered and from that moment, I made it my business to get here as soon as possible. And that day was today. Keep in mind, I'm not a hot dog guy - I have them on occasion and that's it. It never mattered if one was good or decent, it just never compared to the ones I had from Walters when I was a child. When I decided to finally come back here after decades, I had wondered if my illusion would change or perhaps my taste buds did. I was almost briefly hesitant to try them because part of me didn't want my longstanding image of Walters' great hot dogs to be ruined by something that changed - whether it was ownership or me. But, I just had to try and I did. The hot dogs tasted great and still sliced down the middle. I got both with mustard (which I never did as a child) and I scoffed them both down in quick fashion. Yes, that taste was still there. I don't know exactly what they do to them, but whatever it is it's right. Walters still has the greatest hotdogs around. Period. I'm not sure if the menu changed or grew larger over the years, but they had plenty of other offerings. The curly fries (which I also ordered) were good. There's plenty of other options on the menu - from shakes to actual merchandise. You can even pick up hot dogs, buns, and mustard to play Walters at home. I ended up getting some mustard for the hell of it. I came near opening and it was already crowded. I expected a little wait, but my order came very quickly. They have quite a good system in place. There is a fairly large outdoor area for seats/tables - I imagine it's great for the summer weather. There is a high school across the street - which I never realized as a kid sitting on their steps and eating my awesome hot dog back then. Those kids are lucky they have this right across the street. They probably already know it since there were a lot of students there at the same time I was. Parking is street. Only had dealings with the cashier, who was nice. I went out of my way to get here after so long and now that it's fresh on the brain and now that I know this place is still here after literally decades, I will be returning often enough. It won't be for the nostalgia anymore as I did that just today. It will be for the still reigning best hot dogs around (and maybe other things off the menu as well). They've been open for over 100 years (1919), so they are clearly doing something right. Thank you Walters for still standing and being there.

The best hot dog around they melt in your mouth, especially their homemade mustard. This is a must try if you like hot dogs their the best

great people & great hot dogs. A staple in my hometown of Mamaroneck. Iconic. My grandparents & parents went here & now I am happy to take my kids here.

Great spot to stop for lunch off i-95. Lots of street parking. It has a cute outdoor dining area with picnic tables under mature trees that provided a shady place to enjoy lunch with our two pups. (They enjoyed a hot dog too.) I have a peanut allergy and wow, they took that seriously here. They said they don't use peanut oil for cooking/frying, but do have peanut butter for their shakes. So, they explained how they would clean the shake machine and use fresh gloves if I ordered one. Amazing service! The line moves fast and the food came out quickly. The hot dogs are solid, though next time would get a two dog to one bun. It was a little bready with just one. Their house made mustard is fantastic! We took home 4 bottles. We enjoyed the sides most. - Sweet potato waffle fries were simple, crunchy, and delicious. - Potato puffs are basically fried balls of mashed potatoes. Kept wishing I had a side of gravy! - Watermelon ice freeze with Sprite is just perfect if you like something sweet. Lemon ice with lemonade was perfect for something more tart. Do not skip the funnel fries, they were awesome. I don't tend to like sweets, so ordered easy on the powdered sugar and they were perfect.

Walter's is great in every way! But especially the hot dogs! Try it and you'll be hooked!

Hot dogs are delicious and fries too. The place can get cramped and the speed isn't good but I overall recommend it for a quick bite.

I'm baffled by some of the negative reviews on here. I've been going to Walter's for 50 years and if I don't go as frequently as I used to I'd still say that there's been no drop off in quality. There may be other excellent hot dog vendors but this has always been and hopefully always will be the best I've ever had. Over 100 years experience and a loyal following would attest to that.

Great cripsy skinned hot dogs. Spoiler alert: great desserts too! Nutella milkshake and Mixed berry italian ice were loved by the kids in the group. Good curly fries. Forever a Westchester staple for good reason.

Great hot dog! Better egg cream!!! Great place fir a quick meal! Outside eating was nice

Classic Hot Dogs now available in 10 count packaged to cook at home. Veal, beef and pork mixture.

At Walter's, it's all about the bun! The frankfurter sausage itself isn't spectacular, and the toppings at Walter's are not particularly imaginative or flavorful. Where Walter's Hot Dogs stands out from the competition is in the bun, which is nicely toasted and buttered. I have heard that it is difficult to find good egg cream, even in the New York City area, but apparently, the egg cream at Walter's is delicious. The fries are pretty average, but I would recommend the potato puffs. You order at the counter. The service at the counter is fine. It is not rude, nor is it particularly memorable. The Asian Pagoda architecture is what passes for interesting ambiance at this outdoor hot dog stand. A sign near Walter's Hot Dogs tells you that exotic architecture like this was a trend in the 1920s when this particular location of Walter's Hot Dogs opened. The benches down the hill to the left of the stand provide a comfortable dining area on nice spring, summer, and fall days.

Hot was okay.. nothing special. Wait time was long. Funnel cake was good. Maybe will try milk shake next time

Excellent hot dogs and service can't wait to have them again soon ...they also have a truck you can rent for parties

The hot dogs taste like chicken, but in an oddly good way. It's goofy fun to eat here.

Excellent one of the best hot dogs I ever had. Great sides and desserts. I will definitely go back even the mustard was exceptional.

On our way to MA and this spot popped up on our road tripper app as a must stop. Great spot for hot dogs, fries, shakes, ice cream and my fave...funnel cake sticks! Only condiments they offer are mustard, ketchup and mayo which were aok for us. Hot dogs are split down the middle and griddle fried and their fries are perfection in a cup. The funnel cake sticks are crazy addictive. Nice outdoor seating area and ordering and picking up food is easy and safe. Will for sure be stopping anytime we are on our way northeast!

Terrible customer service. Went during Covid and was refused service because I wasn't wearing a mask. Meanwhile there's a guy right next to me waiting for his food with no mask on talking up a storm. You can get better hot dogs from a sabrett cart/stand. Super over rated place.

Good food great ambiance amazing service 10 stars ! Come here and be part in the history of this iconic landmark that is part of the American fabric

I'm not a hot dog person, but Walters has me thinking about a return so that tells me 5 stars right there. Their unique meat blend brings a satisfying flavor profile and the right texture. In my opinion, skip the footlong and go for the regular dog. It's longer, but it's just meat and bread, not worth the charge. I got the double puffy dog. The double dog is definitely the right answer for meat per dollar and the potato puffs go perfectly on there. My friend got a separate side of puffs and they are heavenly. It was clear to me how this place has survived over 100 years. I owe my friend and Walters a return visit sooner than later.

Most definitely on my best New York hot dog list . The different toppings is just mouth watering . Thumbs up!!

Walter's hot dogs are the best in the world. My parents started to take me there when I was five, and it was the highlight of my day. 80'years later the hot dogs still are great.

There's nobody better...period.... For many years they've been the best and their recipe insures they'll be the best going forward!

Saw on TV, reviewed by a top chef. Me for one, I don't understand the hype. I got a double. I was disappointed. The dogs were chewy and not the texture I expected. Now I am a dog guy, I like tender dogs with an easy snap. Walter's are not. Perhaps chewy is how they are supposed to be, but not for me. Opens at 11am, and I was there at 10.55am as I heard the line starts quick. I was the first customer of the day and I was served promptly. 3 mins wait for the order. Fries are pretty good. Historical side of the road hole in the wall modeled on a tiled Chinese pagoda. Distinctive. Hey, I tried it

Way too overpriced. Wait at least ten mins. Nothing to write home about. It is a staple to town. But for me personally probably never go back.

I really don't understand how this landmark institution has survived. Sure there is something to remembering when, a unique structure, waiting in line in anticipation... but the food??!!?? A hot dog, one way, with their mustard, really? Back in 1971 moving from The Bronx to Armonk a new friend said "you like hot dogs? You gotta' try this! "Waited on line, wanted two with chili and onion, nope, ok sauerkraut and mustard, nope...onions? Nope, ok what do you have? MUSTARD, I have to say it again, nostalgia is one thing, but really?

It was a truly unique experience to have had the opportunity to dine on hot dogs within the confines of a historical landmark. The service was perfectly quick and friendly, and the taste of the hot dogs was unusual due to the fact that they were toasted and the sausage was cut in half. You HAVE TO try the malted milkshake, they are simply the best, even though I am not typically a fan of milkshakes. Additionally, the little park with the lights and umbrellas nestled under the trees was absolutely adorable

What's so very special about these cut in half Walter's hot dogs? Absolutely NOTHING! Frozen Sabrett hot dogs are much tastier than these sooo ordinary dogs! So completely underwhelming. I'm not sure where they got this false and spectacular reputation, cause it surely DOES NOT live up to the expectations I had for these "famous" in Westchester hot dogs!!!!! On the other hand, the fries were not oily crisp and tasted delicious. But the hot dogs? Incredibly forgetful.

So I might be the dissenting opinion here but I wasn't impressed. Finally went to Walter's and waited on line for a couple of dogs. The first thing I was disappointed in was that the only toppings you can get are Walter's mustard (mustard with relish), brown mustard or ketchup. Definitely disappointing. I also wanted a coke ice cream float after staring at the dessert menu for a few minutes while I waited to order. I was politely informed that they don't have soda or their machine wasn't working, or something like that. Bottom line, I couldn't get the ice cream soda so another disappointment. I had a five minute wait for my dogs and I was a little surprised they were smaller than I imagined. There was a tiny amount of mustard on them - they were ok but nothing impressive. I would bring my grandkids here cause I think the stand on the side of the road is cute and they have a sitting area right next to it but as for me I'll stick with Nathan's.

Ok So I've tried hotdogs a lot of places I've even had them at Myrtle Beach they were pretty good in Myrtle Beach but no one but no one has yet to come closer even beat this place whatsoever. If you haven't tried they're hotdogs I don't know what you are waiting for especially their homemade mustard amazing.

Better hot dogs than most places and very good milkshakes. Just wish they had more toppings beyond ketchup and a very good mustard.

This is a must-stop if you're touring in the area. Well worth a detour. I'm sure I don't have to tell the locals how tasty the food is! These dogs are definitely their own recipe, nothing mass produced about them. Not overly salty! Quite flavorful, and that secret blend mustard was insane! Sorry I didn't buy a jar to go. Potato puffs: these ain't no tots baby. Hot and fresh. Unique and delicious. Prepare for long lines but it did move pretty quickly considering. Also keep in mind there's picnic tables, but no indoor seating. Good sized parking lot. Weirdest single-use bathroom I ever saw but TP was stocked, room was clean and there was soap and a quality hand dryer. Just think how many people have stopped right here to enjoy the same family recipes for the past 90 years! I invite you to do the same.

The hot dogs were simply amazing! Curly fries were the best! Strawberry lemonade was refreshing. Service with a smile and very fast. Lovely eating area. Relaxed and comfortable. Nice for a summer evening.

OMG. I am not a fan of hot dogs but this is definitely the BEST hot dog I have ever eaten. One thing though... can you PLEASE start accepting Apple Pay?

I'm not a fan of hotdogs. The only reason I wanted to try this place was because of an Instagram post about their powdered funnel fries. We were not disappointed. My picky daughter loved the hotdogs and even I did. I usually avoid hot dogs in general because I don't digest them well but I had two of these and was craving more... We ordered: Puppy dog (went back for seconds) Normal hot dog with mustard (went back for seconds) Fries Curly fries (our favorite over the regular fries) Funnel fries with powdered sugar One scoop vanilla ice cream One scoop chocolate ice cream We found a new road trip!!

I have been following Walter's hot dogs for while now on Instagram. So I was beyond excited to be in the same area at lunch time! I never been to the area so it was neat to see was in more of residential area and it was legit walk up hot dog stand with Asian flare... I order a double dog... With the famous walters brown mustard. They put two cut hotdogs in one bun. Along with nicely seasoned curly fries. For a drink I order a frozen watermelon drink. Made with fresh watermelon not just syrup flavoring. Such amazing hot dog joint!! No wonder its been around since 1919!!!!

This is a Larchmont landmark for the locals and has a cult following patrons. Being directly across from a high school helps propel the myth. The hot dogs are good but not significantly better than other famous hot dogs. It is expensive for what you get. You should try it once and decide. I'd repeat if in the mood for a hot dog. Enjoy..

My dad took me to this place as a kid so Walters holds a special place on my heart. it's is five stars for me. It also has damned good food and famous hot dogs and a quiet relaxed setting and so for me renders a perfectly objective 4 star experience but these factors elevate it. Very good dogs with signature split and grilled in butter on toasted roll preparation makes them very unique. The history and interesting architecture seals the deal!

Best hot dog I've ever had, no questions. This spot has been open since 1919 and thankfully, it feels as if very little has changed. The hotdog is split in half and grilled and the bun is perfectly toasted on the griddle. I hope you like mustard because Walter's Original Mustard absolutely makes this dog. No fancy bells and whistles, just a damn good, perfectly executed hotdog. My god it was good. As soon as we finished eating, got right back in line and the 2nd one was even better than the first. Not to mention, upper echelon milkshakes, fries, potato puffs, AND New England Clam Chowder. Don't be afraid to get wild and dip the dog in the chowder. This place is a National Treasure.

The best curly fries and shakes and its usually on my ride route!! Sadly can try their hotdogs as been told they arent Kosher ie may have pork products!
