Best chili dogs anywhere. As early as 1957, when I began playing baseball at Rosseler (sp?) field, I'd come here on my bicycle (it was called A&W then) for a large (15 cent!!!) rootbeer and 2 or 3 chili dogs. Fantastic. Although I left Monroe for the East Coast in the early 70s, I visit the hot dog stand (as we called it) whenever I visit in season (local law should subsidize the owners to remain open all year).

These people have THE BEST hot dogs - not in Monroe County, but the country! Have relatives in other states who come to visit and they must go to the Original! We live 20 miles away, and are there about once a week while in Monroe, but worth going out of the way for. Who needs french fries - they're bad for you anyway!

Monroe's Original has, by far, the best hot dogs. Their hot dog buns are steamed and warm, not cold and stake like a lot of places. They wouldn't have been in business for 60 plus years if they were bad.

i dont think its good at all, smashed buns, they looked old. nothing special to me, and thats all they have, is hot dogs, no fries, or anything. the service was fast. thats about all i can say.

I have been going to this place for decades and believe I have been to every hot dog joint in Monroe County. The chili sauce at this one is the best I have had in Monroe County. The sauce is homemade using the owners secret recipe. It is outstanding.
