Skips Chicago Dogs

Simple menu, hotdog, hamburgers, chicken breast sandwich, and tenders vibe. Old school feel inside, love the Jordan posters, restroom outside of the building. Hamburger alone is $11.29, it’s a good burger. You may not get full off of it and order a hotdog to go with it Which could be around $25 with tax and tip. The place was very clean and the service was great. The food time was fair. Plenty of places to sit and eat with a TV to watch the game. The bulldog is a thick hot dog. The slaw and chili was fair. I prefer fresh cut and breaded onion rings instead of those “From frozen” onion rings that are mostly breading and leave an oily back taste. I could eat here again, but it didn’t scream one of a kind. The place definitely has a lot of history. Chicken sandwich was tasty. I’d def get it

For starters, I LOVED that this incredible spot has John 3:16 on their menu. I was so impressed that they would be willing to take such a bold stand that I was taking a picture of the menu when a gentleman from the back kitchen saw me doing so and assumed I couldn't see the sign very well so he ran out in the lobby, and grabbed me a menu and brought it to me with a smile! The environment was so family oriented. A family had come for dinner in front of us straight from the ballet and their two precious daughters were dancing around while the mother who was from Chicago was absolutely losing it over how authentic the restaurant was. I am so happy we decided to stop in. The food was phenomenal. My husband had a sausage and onion and I had their traditional sausage dog, both of which were per

This is one of the best old school hot dog joints around! I've been going here since it opened! (I think) The owner is from Chicago so he knows what he is doing and if I'm wrong he's done a great job doing is all! I typically get the jumbo dog, it has a nice snap to it when I bite into it, and I love the bright green relish! They know how to cook fries unlike so many places these days. The burgers and everything else I've ever had here has been great but who cares! This is a dog joint!

As a Chicagoland transport, I will always recommend Skips to my friends and family. Skips is not just authentic in food, but also in experience. They remind me of the small local businesses I grew up on, that would remember your name and treat you like family. When I went through their drive thru with tears in my eyes because my husband had just lost a friend, they gave us some treats on the house and then checked on us after every visit. We have been loyal to Skips for 5 years and that's not changing anytime soon.

Yall. I am born and raised from this area. My mom is born and raised from this area. She was 7 years old living in this neighborhood when they built this establishment. My mom and I enjoyed a delicious and affordable lunch at Skip’s today just before 2025 ended. And SKIPS did not disappoint! I am beyond grateful for the service I received and it’s just so community oriented in here! The decor is really cool and having taken my first trip to Chicago earlier this year and trying an Italian beef I was like whaaaatttt they have Italian beef at the Skip’s hotdogs I’ve driven past alllllllll my life because I personally don’t eat hotdogs. But they have more than just hotdogs and sausages y’all! There are JUICY looking burgers, onion rings, milkshakes, chicken tenders, Philly cheese steaks, SALAD
