Fun food at a great price - Edit
As a customer since they opened, the best tribute I can think of is this: it’s amazing how many people I watch walk in, order a hot dog, eat it and *then* realise what they ordered isn’t meat but tastes super good.
Read moreHot dogs are one of those foods that nearly everyone enjoys but we all like ours a bit differently and that’s ok because Not Dogs have you covered. The menu has a good range of options from the ‘Plain Jane’ which is as plain as they get to hot dogs with duck, cheese/tomato sauce (a la pizza dog) and even hummus - and yes, you’re as sceptical as I was and you don’t need to fear because it’s awesome.
A minor criticism is the occasionally slow service. Weirdly, this only seems to happen when they’re quite empty yet when they’re packed the food comes quickly. Doesn’t take away too much from the overall good experience.
Pros: Good menu options

Lots of options but food nothing special - Edit
Lots of burgers and hot dogs and all can be made vegan. Quite a long wait for one burger, they don’t do chips or didn’t have any today and the quality was very low compared with places like V Burger or Temple of Seitan.

Somewhere in the mall - Edit
This bright shop is a little hard to find in the mall. They offer a good variety of dressed up hot dogs and burgers. I had a nicely seasoned Original Frank. The nuggets though were tasteless and very dry.

A wonderful place - bad news for my waistline! - Edit
I have been to this place three times now, and never have been disappointed. Its great if you fancy a ‘naughty’ vegan snack, especially if you’re stopping for a quick break from shopping in the city. The staff are super friendly and are always happy to answer any questions about the food. Thank you for making it easier for us vegans to enjoy eating in the city! 😘
Read morePros: Delicious vegan options, Great for a quick bite to eat, Fab location.

Grand Central hot dog fun - Edit
We really enjoyed Not Dogs, the food was great, staff friendly and all with a relaxed atmosphere. It is rather pricy for what it is, but worth it for the novelty of having a ‘hot dog’!
Read morePros: Central location, Speedy service, Good grub
Cons: A little on the pricey side

Great "Fast" Food - Edit
It took me a while to find Not Dogs because I am not used to finding a veggy place in the middle of a shopping centre - its on the upper floor "link" between the Bull Ring and Grand Central shopping centers (so I would recommend it as a good place to visit if stuck for an hour on New Street station waiting for a delayed train). The food is great and good value for money.
Read morePros: Good city center location, Value for money
Cons: None whatsoever

Tasty vegan fast food with a twist - Edit
Very modern and stylish place! Small and suitable for a lunch or light bite. Every dish can be veganised! Hoisin mock duck has been on my list to try and I was super duper happy with this Not Dog! My boyfriend (non-veg) even said it tasted exactly like a meat hot dog.

Thank you! Lovely food, great service. I’ve tried both the Not Dog and the Queen B burger and loved both. Service was excellent and both times I went in I was told “anything on the menu can be vegan, no problem!”

Defently worth a visit - Edit
Went over the weekend for lunch. I had heard about Not Dogs through a friend who recommended it to me. Not only were the staff really friendly the food was great, the portion sizes were great for the price, which is the only reason I'm not giving 5 stars as I found them to be a little expensive. But still I'm coming back to try something different.
Read morePros: Menu can be made vegan on request, Generous portion sizes

Tasty hot not dogs - Edit
Tasty vegetarian fast food which is able to prepare all food in vegan version. Not dogs are tasty junk food. They also offer nuggets, burgers, etc. Good option for quick lunch, snack or take-away.

Ok, but nothing special - Edit
Been here a handful of times and the staff always seem disinterested. Food is ok, but nothing special. Take care to mention you’re vegan as they do serve veggie food too and the staff won’t ask. Ok if you’re desperate for fast food in a fix but not worth a journey into town. Seating isn’t so comfortable and decor is too minimal. Also, why the photos of a dessert but there isn’t one?

Cons: Expensive for what it is, Staff

Hi
Read moreThank you for taking the time to review. It's disappointing to hear that the Crew seemed disinterested. We will feed that back to them.
All menu items are vegetarian but we do ask all customers to request whether you want your food 'made vegan' via a sign at the till.
We feature historical photos all over the restaurant - our Beau the Banana Brioche Dog was sold at the Oxford Christmas Market which we loved!
Again, thanks for the review.

Great food and chilled atmosphere - Edit
As far as I'm aware, all food was vegeterian or vegan. You have the choice of a vegetarian Quorn sausage or vegan seitan sausage, and everything can be made vegan on request. They also offer dairy free milkshakes, which are really good. Really nice, chilled out atmosphere where you feel comfortable shoving a "not-dog" in your mouth. Definitely recommend!

Exciting hot dogs! - Edit
There's an exciting range of hot dogs in this place, most of which can be veganised. I absolutely loved the hoisin duck one, the sauce was so flavoursome and the crushed rice crackers gave it a delightful texture. The waffle fries were also really good. This place is in a great location, really convenient.
