Simple food at affordable prices. Where can you get a burger for $3.75? 1/4lb dog $4 and you can add sauerkraut. Chili or cheese add--on $0.50 each. Hot, crisp fries $3.75. Order at counter. Quick service. Separate entrance for dine-in and takeout. [[HIGHLIGHT]]No fancy decor but fun to read their history, est. 1932![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Picnic tables open during warm weather.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]A Saturday at 3pm and there's always someone eating or ordering.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Quick service.

Rare 5 Star Review An Institution for a reason. Hiram's Roadstand has been serving hot dogs since 1928. Deep fried hot dogs, classic Fried Dogs, Burgers. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is about as old school as it gets.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]On one side is counter service where younger neighborhood kids were eating dogs and sipping on Yoo-hoo, while the other half is a bar where the older guys were jamming down dogs and burgers, and watching the game.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] TIP: Ice Cold Draft Beers TIP 2: Always order your dogs well done, they get a bit ripped, delicious. Always a must stop, gives Rutz Hut a run for its money. Thanks
The food was delicious and the price of the food and drinks were good. The employees and service were very good. Also they had plenty of people working there and you didn't have to wait a long time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plus their own unique ambience from a place that has been around for many years[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . [[HIGHLIGHT]]And has areas for children.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
TLDR: Famous quick stop in the Fort Lee area. Chili cheese dog. Cash only. Tasty. I've driven by Hiram's countless times but only tried it the other day. It gives me a very similar vibe to New Park Pizza in Howard Beach, the hot dog and burger version. IYKYK. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's cash only, you can order at the counter and there's some seats both inside and some benches in the parking lot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The chili cheese dog was very tasty. Standard bun but the frankfurter itself had a very snappy casing. Well-cooked and served HOT. The chili was also hot and there's a slice of American underneath. It melts together in a much better way than the standard nacho cheese like sauce I'm accustomed to. So nice, we had it twice. I try not to eat too many hot dogs but if you're craving it - do it right. I'd definitely come back to try some other things, maybe not after I just ate dinner but it was still a good idea.
[[HIGHLIGHT]]Finally tried outdoor dining and it was wonderful on a warm spring day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] To my chagrin, they discontinued their Birch Beer, but their Root Beer they allowed me to sample was still pretty good! I ordered onion rings & chili cheese dog loaded with relish, k&m and brought it out to the back patio packed neatly in a cardboard box. The dog hit the spot as always - fresh bread, great tasting fried dog w/ classic condiments, paired perfectly with a cold bottle of miller lite. Not sure why I keep ordering the onion rings though... must be the grease junkie in me but it's not that good (not enough onion, too much coating & greasy). Wouldn't order it again unless I wanna be transported back to the early 90s roller skating rink food. Good to eat once in a (long) while (wife says), but I say the classic taste cannot be denied!
Hiram's 1345 Palisade Ave. Fort Lee, NJ 07024 Hot Dog with Red Onions Hot Dog with Chili and Cheese Onion Rings Sausage Sandwich Located in Fort Lee approximately one mile from the George Washington Bridge is a locally owned restaurant that specializes in the good old fashioned American hot dog. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is a decent amount of indoor seating and plenty of decorative wall art.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The hot dog was smothered in red onions. Some of the onions fell of the dog, but that's definitely a good problem as it means the plentiful onions were piled high and deep. In my personal opinion, chili and cheese both make excellent toppings on a frankfurter. Visually the cheese is hard to see, but it is hidden beneath a heaping mound of chili. If you aren't craving a hot dog, check out a couple of the other comfort food menu items I explored. The battered onion rings are piping hot. While crunchy on the outside, they are soft and savory on the inside. It's a win-win whether you choose to have them plain or with a dipping sauce of your choice. This flattened sausage patty is smothered in marinara sauce and served on Italian bread. It is simple, yet satisfying. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was a pleasant experience eating classic food in this casual establishment[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. #hotdogs #hotdoglovers #hotdogwithredonions #redonions #chiliandcheese #hotdogwithchiliandcheese #sausagesandwich #onionings #Hirams #fortleenj #foodstagram #localbusiness #foodreviews #njfoodie #eats #localspots
A New Jersey institute that has stood the test of time. There isn't much to say about Hiram's, been here forever. Serving up deep fried hot dogs and burgers and all the classic sides. You can eve be order a beer. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small place with two entrances, one where you can stand to eat or pick up to go, another where they offer some tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very old school spot, cash only.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great service. If you want a hot dog or burger you gotta stop here.
I stopped in recently with my girlfriend as I've been wanting to try this place since I first saw Anthony Bourdain come here and say it was his favorite hot dog. But since I became vegan/vegetarian in 2017 I rarely eat meat unless it's a special place or a rare occasion, but over the past month I loosened up a little and ate some here and there so I made it a point to come here due to this being a special place. It's a cool little spot in a great area. I've always loved Fort Lee. The atmosphere is vibey yet fast faced. You feel a sense of urgency while eating here as everyone is in a rush to eat and go. Which I'm down with. We ordered a dog to share with mustard and sauerkraut on it. F****ck it was good! So good that my girlfriend said, "Let's get another one babe!" I loved that! She also added some relish to this one which made it even better. I've had alot of great hot dogs across the United States and I have to say, this is the best one I've had thus far. Highly Recommended and thanks for the great service and vibey atmosphere. I'll be back soon to have more dogs plus I'll make sure to enjoy a beer and a burger the next time as well. Enjoy :P
Took a trip to Fort lee to check out Hiram's on a Sunday morning-[[HIGHLIGHT]]on the outside the place exuded nostalgia, and the inside matched-good vibes all around.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Only two other guests when we walked in, ordered a couple of dogs, couple of sodas and an order of fries.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Less than $20 (cash only!) for all, food came out quickly, piping hot. They had a small bar area, about six tables inside, and plenty of outdoor seating, and fairly ample parking. Staff was great, providing good service. Might have to make this an annual trek!
It's not summertime if you haven't stopped at Hiram's Roadstand, one of the last few places on earth where prices haven't risen exponentially. As a pescetarian, I especially love their dirt-cheap draft beer and cheese fries. The 2 slices of American cheese between an inside-out bun is fine. I would lose it if they added a vegan hot dog option to the menu, but I don't think that's in the cards for old school places like Hiram's.
Worth a special trip? No. Worth a slight detour? Sure. This is quintessential greasy spoon. The chili cheese dog... awesome! (the cheese comes in slice, not liquid form). The burger is full of sodium and delicious with the grilled onions. The onion rings are doused in batter and actually cling to the onion. You can add your own relish and other stuff yourself. Ask for mayo, they have it. These guys have this grub down to a science. Keep your expectations mediocre, and you will be thrilled. Yes the place is a little dirty, no the guys will not put on a Disney dance for you when you come in, yes you will leave satisfied. I visited around 3pm on a Friday, and found parking and seating, no problem. Cash only.

Cuisine: 8 Service: 6 Decor: 6 Value: 8 Overall: 8 Deep fried hot dogs are delicious. Why are there not more of these types of restaurants around in NYC? I first heard of them and tried Rutt's Hut. Since then I have been to a few more including here. This is excellent. My usual is a couple of rippers and a root beer. Add some relish and mustard. What a meal! Can't clog my arteries all the time, but this is a great treat once in a while. read more

Best item on the menu is the chili dog. The onion rings are delicious, but it's salty . The plain dog with kraut and relish was fine, but the chili dog I thought tastes the best. $4.50 for chili dog, $4.00 for plain dog and $4.00 onion rings. read more

Finally got to visit one of the destination hot dog joints! Very good fried hot dogs! I had the chili cheese dogs... Chili was fine nothing to write home about, but it wasn't bad. I like the slice of cheese they put on the bun. Also had fries which were typical fast food fries. Good. The onion rings were pretty good as well. Also had a bite of cheeseburger, typical cheeseburger and nothing outrageous. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have tables inside, areas to sit outside for nice days.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They sell beer! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small parking lot is available but it gets crowded during meal times.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was good, friendly.

Beefy dog in an old school setting! To be honest I limit the number of hot dogs I consume to maybe 3-4 a year. Without knowing what kind of dog I'm consuming and the list of ingredients I generally veer on the side of avoiding entirely. Having heard that Hiram's makes a great dog for a great price though, I had to check it out. This was no frills, just a great beefy dog with a snappy bite, with just the right amount of cheese and chili layered on top. These aren't the thin, overly salty dogs that you get at most Major League Baseball ballparks. The price for this goodness was $4.25 which in 2024, isn't bad at all. The service was friendly but expect to do a little more on your end if you need accompaniments on your dog. Ketchup and Mustard is available for self serve. My dog also came out on a paper plate which was just fine. I took mine outside to the picnic tables and enjoyed my time munching on this masterpiece. I had not noticed this roadside staple in the past but now that I do, I might be going over my 3-4 hot dogs a year. LOL. read more
After having a meal elsewhere, we decided to make a pitstop at Hiram's on the way home. Been wanting to check this place out since watching the 3 part series of YouTuber, Mark Weins...Anthony Bourdain's New Jersey Food Trail. Quick Fun Fact: Although the late Anthony Bourdain was born in New York, he grew up and lived in Leonia, NJ during his childhood years. This iconic spot has been regarded as the BEST here in the Garden State. It's a no frills kinda place. This is as old school as it gets. There is outdoor picnic style seating as well. I know I will get a lot of hate comments but I just want to say that I am a hot dog lover. So much so that I can probably have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Miss those dirty water dogs in NYC's pushcarts. EYES EAT FIRST. At first glance, the dogs look bigger than I thought. I am used to skinny ones. Here it goes...I took a snap at the hot dogs and it didn't snap back. How can a frankfurter that is deep fried not have a snap to it? First thing that hits me is how salty it is. Second thing is that it looked and tasted more like chicken instead of beef. What also threw me off is the texture of the chili. It was not as hearty as I would have liked. It was mushy and paste-like. I did like the spicy kick. The one slice of cheese wrapped around the dog is something a kid would do. Just saying. I think they should have melted it. The fries are okay, a little too hard and over-fried. The locals here seem to LOVE IT!! I prefer Nathan's and Gray's Papaya instead. read more

My favorite classic hot dog joint in NJ, period. Service is quick and friendly, prices are extremely reasonable, and no matter what you order it is good, but I recommend the hot dog. Fun fact, when you sit at the counter, they have just about everything you can put on sitting right on the counter. Personal note ... lots of hockey stuff. Let's Go Rangers! (Didn't effect their rating, I promise. I just love it) read more
Loved it! Manage your expectations and you will too! If you go here like a hipster food critic with skinny jeans and a botox induced smile, you will not only be disappointed, you may just get thrown out of the place by the people inside (both employees and patrons). This is not a fancy, Michelin starred spot. Instead, it is working class, Americana comfort food to the nth degree. Vegetarians, vegans, and herbivores should not waste their time. And for all of you that protest the venerable hot dog out of health concerns, in my line of work, I see vegetarians die just as often as hot dog eaters. The difference is that the vegetarians seem more unhappy. I figure that you only go around once, so you might as well be happy and I eat their hot dogs for them. I loved that despite its popularity, the folks running this spot make it very easy, inexpensive, and efficient to stop here and feed your face. There is a private parking lot with lots of decently sized spaces and an outside picnic table are along with indoor seats at about 8 tables as well as seats at the bar. Having never been in the place before, I was not sure what the etiquette was or how you order but it is pretty much order at the counter, find a seat, stuff your pie hole, pay in cash (no cards or pay apps here). There are about 20 things on the menu but they really are variations of 5 base ingredients: Meat in tube form, meat in patty form, potatoes in fried french form, onions in ring form, and water in plain beer and soda form. Based on those 4 things, you can get chili or cheese added and there are some condiments on the counter including sauerkraut and red pepper relish that are free for your use if that is your style. I can only vouch for the hot dogs since that was what I had heard about here so that is what I ate. They are unique because they undergo a spa treatment in the deep fryer before they hit the too-small soft white bun and then they hit the deck in front of you on a too-small paper plate. All of that just adds to the greatness here since you dress your food and the stuff falls all over the place when you are eating. Trying to get it to fall on the small plate is a challenging form of entertainment. The hot dogs are really the thing here and those will get 5 stars from me all day long. A consolation prize is due for the chili that I had on one of them as it was perfectly spicy and thin enough to dress the dog with. I really can't recommend that combination enough! There is not a lot of overhead here so their prices are really great. Ridiculously so given what you get. Sure they are not $1.50 Costco prices but the experience of coming here, people watching a good cross-section of normal America taking a break, and watching the happy staff chase the American dream is really priceless. I wish I had more reason's to be passing through NJ just so I could stop in here again! read more
Loved the retro vibes and the large outdoor seating with picnic tables (indoor seating is limited but available!) I ordered the deep fried chili and cheese hot dog, onion rings and french fries. Honestly, I wasn't super amazed by the food but the onion rings were super crispy and definitely my favorite! The french fries weren't really crispy and the hot dog had chili on it so I guess that made it less crispy. I also added lots of other condiments like relish and it definitely enhanced the flavor of my food! There's lots of parking and it is cash only - would recommend this spot if you want a quick, cheap and satisfying meal! read more
Been coming here for 50 years. National Food Landmark Fried hot dogs Great little burgers fries; onion rings, soda & beer a true road stand. order and watch a ballgame on the 1 TV the cooks watch plenty of parking; a little park area with picnic tables. Place is a LEGEND......A LEGEND read more

I just visited Hiram's, and I was honestly blown away by both the hot and chili dogs. The regular hot dog was cooked to perfection and had a solid bite to it. We added relish and mustard to our dogs, and I think the relish gave the hot dog a good zang that went really well with the mustard The chili dog was also perfectly cooked and the amount of chili on the dog was just right. I thought the chili would be really heavy but it was surprisingly light and had a pinch of spiciness to it. The price was also very good for what we got at just $3.75 for the hot dog and a little over $4 for the chili dog All in all, I was very satisfied and will definitely visit again. I can definitely see why Anthony Bourdain recommended. read more

First: it's CASH ONLY! Okay, now you're ready to go to Hiram's. Hiram's is one of the many great hot dog spots in North Jersey. I'm not going to pick a dog in the fight here and say if it's better than Hot Grill, Rutt's Hut, or the others, because they're all great. Hiram's probably is the most famous outside of New Jersey thanks to Anthony Bourdain, and it does live up to the hype. It's a no frills spot (see: cash only), but that's to your benefit because the prices are great. I had to buy a beer because where else can you get a beer for under $5? Unfortunately, they didn't have anything on tap today, otherwise I would have been able to get a beer for under $3! In New Jersey. In 2024. We also got a birch beer (on tap), which is always delicious. The chili cheese dogs are so good. The piece of cheese melted on the bottom really adds some great flavor. I have a hard time getting anything else when I visit, because these are so great. We also got onion rings (because chili cheese fries would have been a bit excessive) and they were crispy and flavorful. Service was friendly and quick, and very New Jersey. If you're a tourist, it may not be what you're used to and may not seem quite so friendly, but just try not to hold up the line and you'll be fine. We sat outside since it was finally a nice day out and they have lots of great picnic benches out next to the parking lot. I can't wait to go back - but will need to wait a bit until I can work off the food I ate today. read more
If I weren't feeling so guilty about eating a hot dog, I would have enjoyed it more. The hot dog skin had a crisp. Great hot dog and they give you the fixings like sauerkraut and relish. My first time here. I wonder if they would toast the bun. read more
I've had this place bookmarked a while since its apparently an NJ institution. I thought that it was okay, although I don't think I'd return unless I was in the area and in the mood for American food. Ordered 2 chilli dogs, which is a good amount for one person. Price was very reasonable. Its a small place and was fairly busy on a Friday evening, although it did empty out later. Need to order at the counter. Cash only. Parking lot is fairly large given the size of the restaurant. read more
Know for their deep fried hot dogs, Hiram was somewhere I wanted to try out while in Jersey. They take cash only and did not bother to give my change back but it was just a quarter so aw well? Hot dog was definitely different than your regular dogs but it was not amazing, just different. You can tell it has been deep fried but nothing special. The condiments were nicely set up for you to put on your hot dogs. There is a small sitting area as well. read more
