Absolutely love it! Great prices the hot dog hands down one of the best I've had in my 46yrs.so if you have the chance must stop! FYI my bun was perfect! Steamed buns are over rated in my opinion. 😊 my deep fried mushrooms were excellent and my boyfriends oinion rings were also exceptional!! Over all any time I'm in this area I will be stopping!

Absolutely phenomenal. These have to be the best hotdogs ive had in years they remind me of when I was a kid at the church sales. 10/10 would recommend the spicy chili

I had read about the famous "yellow slaw" some years back, and finally got to try it today. I had two hot dogs with the yellow slaw and spicy chili. The fries were big enough to split comfortably, and we did. The chili is top five for me, and that yellow slaw is surprisingly sweet. It tastes like sweet hot mustard and complements the rest of the hot dog very well. This place is takeout only, because the business is in a little trailer. There are picnic tables next to the parking where you can eat on a nice day. They also do a summer vacation the week of July 4, so I'm glad we got here right before we closed. They also DO accept credit cards, which I was shocked about. All in all definitely worth the short trip off I-77.

I have loved Chum's since discovering it a little over a year ago and up until now, I would rave about it to my family and friends. Specifically the yellow slaw, it is delicious! However, my friend went to their restaurant to get our lunch today and customer service was absolutely horrible. There are typically two ladies at the window. One of them as sweet as can be, the other acts like anything you order is an inconvenience to her. My friend has 6 orders total and had tried calling in advance but their phone was off of the hook. The rude lady made the comment that she "wished people would find another hot dog place" and then threatened to turn off their fryers and do hot dogs only. When you are a small business, you thrive on your customers and being treated this way is absolutely UNACCE

I've had lunch from Chum's twice and it's been delicious both times. The first time I had hot dogs with everything and the second time I had everything and the spicy chili. Both options were super. The yellow slaw is great. Definitely worth a try if you like hot dogs. 👍
