It doesn’t get much more classic American cuisine than a hot dog. Whether you like your dawg with ketchup and relish, prefer your hot dog Cincinnati style, or are more of a corn dog fan, hot dogs are a classic American dish that’s iconic, ubiquitous, and delicious. And there’s a new restaurant in Kentucky that’s taking the classic hot dog to the next level. Boonedogs is a charming little eatery in Lexington that specializes in all things hot dogs, and will make all your hot dog dreams come true!
Sometimes, you just want a hot dog. A really, really good hot dog.
Surrounded by horse farms in the heart of bourbon country, Boonedogs is exploring a new frontier of flavor with dressed-up hotdogs, artisan sausage, craft beer, and creative cocktails.
Boonedogs opened in late 2020, filling a hot-dog-sized hole in the heart of the Bluegrass State. Since then, the restaurant has gained quite a devoted following.
Using the finest and freshest ingredients, Boonedogs takes hot dogs to new heights, boasting a menu with truly inspired and inventive combinations, such as BLT Dogs, Pimento Dogs, and the Kentucky Dog, which features chow chow, sport peppers, house pickles, tomato, and “everything” seasoning.
At Boonedogs, you can even build your own dog. Pick your meat, then choose from a massive menu of fresh toppings. This is the stuff of hot dog dreams, folks.
And who says you can't be a little fancy with your hot dog dinner? Add a craft cocktail or bourbon on the rocks to your meal, for the ultimate Kentucky experience.
If it's nice, you can enjoy your meal in the lovely outdoor dining area. Surrounded by beautiful views, with a cocktail in one hand and hot dog in the other, this is an experience worth seeking out.
So the next time you want to mix up your happy hour, or a hot dog craving hits, head to Boonedogs and prepare for a next-level dining experience in Kentucky!
