Customer Reviews
It has been a while since I went and got “Yocco’d”. You simply cannot beat this place (Any of the locations really). Local \ small business, great food, and a nostalgic feeling. Friendly and helpful staff made for a great experience.
My family and I stopped there for a quick bite to eat. The hot dogs were not bad but the chili i had on my dog was not good at all. We ordered a bucket of onion rings, a i was eating an onion ring i saw on another ring there was a piece of hair. I took the onion ring up the counter and the lady behind the counter pulled the hair off the onion ring and said there you go all better. The worst part is she didn't even get all the hair off. Then as we were leaving the guy cooking asked how everything was told him about the hair and his response was well it sure didn't come from cause he was bald headed. This was my very first and very last time going to yoccos.
I've been going to Yocco's for many years, but we've moved and can no longer frequent them as much as I'd like. Happened to pass by on a Sunday about 1:30 and dropped in. Happy to say that not much has changed. Service was good. Seating was ample (and clean). We shared 5 hot dogs and each got some krinkle fries. The dogs are grilled, and the special sauce is still great. Fries were hot and fresh. What's not to love if you are a dog lover. Looking forward to the next time we pass through Emmaus.
So this was my first time here and my take away is it was eh, I was hoping for more because places that are cash only usually have the best food. I’ve had better and I have had worse. I will say the service was fast, the fries were hot & fresh, and it was cheap cheap cheap. So the fries I would give 5/5 great. The cheese dog with everything I would give 2/5. Lastly the cheese steak with everything I would give a 3/5. Tons of meat on the cheese steak but the flavor was lacking with hardly any cheese. I’ll prob be back for the fries. The service was great though, the staff here deserves a 10/10 they are on top of it!
Please please please stop using the hot dog buns u are using. They are gummy. They are not meant to be steamed. Go back to a good roll like u were using. The vallos rolls were perfect.
