A downtown Rochester staple. It was perfect for a quick dinner seated by the creek outside for a beautiful night for the Deck Art Event. Cash only. Always good dogs and something for everyone. The new Jalapeño dog is delicious. Hope they add it to the menu permanently. The chili fries are the best and the owner is the nicest. Always a fun staff. Indoor seating, deck seating with heaters for winter and picnic tables down by the creek. Simply the best. read more

Back again! Visited on a Saturday in February around 1:30 and it was busy! The staff was wonderful-the owner was washing tables, checking on customers and keeping things moving. The chili cheese fries hit the spot(one of my favs) and the coney with cheese was perfect! The inside was full but the patio was heated. read more

Lipuma's Coney Island - Coney dogs with cheese, combo dog, chili cheese fries and a root beer $20 - Hot Dogs Near Me - Rochester, Michigan

First time and not the last. Despite this was made to feel right at home in a cozy and quaint place. The secret here is to know what you want and order it, pay and it gets ready promptly. My friend and I each had a couple dogs each. He had to Chicago Dogs which looked fresh and he said Delicious. I had the New York and a regular Coney and we agreed we will return. On a side note there is outdoor, covered seating with the Clinton River running by. read more

Sheesh, these dogs are amazing! I got the Texas, Chicago and NY; while it's heavy on the ingredients, that's a pretty good complaint to have. The Chicago dog was definitely my favorite. I did not get any of the chili cheese fries but I saw others get it and I was a bit envious. The folks were kind and the food was ready quickly. It's such a cool spot amongst all the "fine dining" establishments nearby. Sometimes a good dog is all you need! I can't wait for my next time. read more

This is an ICONIC Coney Dog Drive In ~ we live in Las Vegas are visiting family & this is ALWAYS a must GO. Coney Dogs are NOT Chili Dogs just for reference, coney dogs are meat no beans with a hot dog, mustard on a bun~ I don't get the attraction however this restaurant always is crowded so their product is highly desired. Many different type of hot dogs are available along with soup, chix nuggets, french fries, soft drinks and i believe a salad or 2. All dogs are $3.50 ~ Great for families, kids etc, free parking, a few tables inside and more on the covered patio. CASH ONLY so make sure to go the the ATM before read more

Don't leave town without it. Coney dogs done right. Great people. Blah, blah, blah to fill the 85 word minimum. read more

This is my favorite Coney place; the food is excellent, the decor is old-school with counter just inside the door, fast service, and a staff that treats you like you're a regular...even if it's been years since you showed up. Looking forward to the next time I come home. read more

**CASH ONLY** I've driven by this place a million times but never stopped in because there was always a line wrapped around the building, and let's be honest, I'm not standing in line for food, especially in the elements. LOL. Well, I was driving today and finally had the time to stop in and realized it wasn't busy and were just opening. Parking here's kind of tight and they have signs that if you aren't there for the restaurant or the realtors office, you'll be towed. Yikes! Good to know though. Walking in the place is kind of small but they have outdoor seating that's covered along with heat lamps for this time of year. The place is pretty old school with a really basic menu and the letters you have to manually put up one by one. Their pricings really good. About $3 to $3.50 a hot dog, $3 for a drink, etc. They have a great selection of dogs to choose from and I asked a lot of questions before I ordered. The guy behind the counter gave me a ton of info and was really super helpful. I went with the Texas dogs which came with coleslaw and a pickle on top. I got two, but probably would've been okay with one and I got a drink as well. Total was just under $10. Not to bad, but they don't accept cards! WHY! It's 2022 and you could at least have a card reader and require a minimum. I docked a star for this because there's no reason in this day and age to not accept cards. Also, they don't do breakfast! I asked why and they said it's because they want to be an authentic Coney and just offer dogs and such. Okay, fine, I learned my lesson. So, lunch and dinner only here I guess. Overall a really solid place and worth a stop if you have time. Just go when it's not busy so you can dine inside and not wait in line or have to take your food elsewhere to eat. read more

Lipuma's Coney Island - Texas dog - Hot Dogs Near Me - Rochester, Michigan

If you're reading this Yelp review....I can only hope that you are an out of towner who has turned to Yelp to find some great local food in the Rochester area. Goodness knows, the locals already have been in on the secret of this Rochester community staple. If that is the case, you can probably stop reading and just put Lipuma's into Waze and head on down. In my opinion there is only one better Coney Island in the Detroit area...and that's Lafayette Coney downtown. But since the two are so far from one another, each occupies a different spot in my eating rotation. A Lipumas experience starts when you order at the counter. The staff is fast, friendly and gets your food to you quickly....word of caution, bring cash...no credit cards accepted. Food in hand, it's time to chow down. The chili here is outstanding, definitely more flavorful and (importantly) consist than the bigger franchised Coneys around town. It shines on their hot dogs and fries. The fries are always fresh and crispy. The coneys are great,,,I love how finely they chop the onions...it's like an onion relish not big, sloppy chunks. While the hot dogs don't have the snap that you get from a natural casing dog, they taste good enough to overlook that minor flaw. I can't wait for my next trip to Lipuma! read more

No reinvention of the wheel. Just an excellent tasting Coney Dog. Have had the Bean soup and the Wedding soup. Both excellent choices. Line moves briskly. Staff is friendly as you move from order to register. Indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Good food, cheap prices, and very friendly staff! My go-to for coney!! Make sure to bring cash. Cash only business.

Stopped in while bike riding for a quick dog with family on a "Sampler Saturday". Had a "Rochester Red" kind of like a (salsa) chili topping, just enough kick, and the bun was nice and soft. Also tried the "coney Island" to test out there homemade chili, not bad, but have had much better. Service was very friendly and welcoming. Outdoor ambiance was very nice with a great view of the Paint Creek river and a bit of downtown. Definite recommend!!! read more

This is not I repeat not a Coney Island. It's a washed up nasty hot dog place with other frozen food garbage items that are deep-fried or reheated...... and their hotdog doesn't even stand out to being anything special waste of time chili cheese fries is garbage read more

The best place for hot dogs with lot of variety, from coney dogs to a Chicago dog. Great flavors for any taste. The taco is a must try with a generous portion of beef. They fry the white corn shell on demand for your order. The salsa is a nice medium spice. We love this place. read more

Lipuma's is a staple for Rochester and the food is always fresh and fast plus you get big portion sizes on the fries and the drinks. My favorite item to order is the coney dog with mustard and also get a mustard dog. Both of the hot dogs I get are always tasty and the flavor hasn't changed in many years. It's always very busy but they get you through the line pretty quick and the owner is always talking to everyone that comes into this Coney Island. The place is always buzzing with people being happy with their food and happy with the atmosphere which is always the best. Highly recommended. read more

Serving awesome food for at least 50 years. Hot dogs in various ways. Great fries,salad , and soup. Highly recommended.

Started going there in the early 1970s. Funny story from the past. Came home with a carryout chili, put it on the dining table, took off the top, went and got bowls and spoons. Came back and found my parakeet (who I had let out of his cage when I came in) standing on the table next to the chili sticking his head in and sampling it. Never ever had a problem with the bird bothering food. But after that he would dive bomb the table for food. We had to keep him caged when we ate after that!! Even a parakeet knew who made great chili. Good luck for the Channel 4 greats. read more

This spot is a great option for a quick bite to eat. The inside is very small, but there's a ton of seating at the back patio that overlooks the river. The prices are super reasonable. My boyfriend and I each got a hot dog and split a chili fry for around $12. They both were super delicious. The staff was friendly and the food came out fast. It is CASH ONLY, so make sure you come prepared. We will definitely go back! read more

I'm not the biggest lover of hot dogs but I certainly enjoyed mine from the infamous Lipuma's! Was also very stoked that they had cheese fries and they actually put a good amount of cheese on them too and weren't skimpy. I'll totally come back here just keep in mind it's cash only so bring cash or ya ain't eating! read more

Coneys are solid, the tacos and burritos are outstanding. Chili cheese fries are also a must order every time.

Ever wonder what that line of people is when driving down Rochester rd? Why are they waiting and what for? Coney dogs, yep, coney dogs. For those not in the know, a coney dog is, you guessed it, a hot dog, usually smothered with some kind of topping. My favorite is the plain hot dog. Just meat and bun. The OGHD. Perfect on a sunny day. Washed down with fried slices of potatoes, also known as fries. Then go for a run. Safely of course, don't hurt yourself, but after eating here it feels like my blood is just a bit thicker. A run is just what the proctologist ordered. Because you will be sitting on the throne shortly after. Some might say it's not worth it, but I say, get some TP, hold tight, eat some coneys, enjoy looking up at the paint creek tavern/river, love, laugh, love and know that one or five coneys won't hurt, maybe everyday, but today, no, just enjoy! read more

Suuuuuper friendly service. Great location. I'm taking the fam back & grabbing a picnic table by the river. Love that they have soup / especially Italian wedding! read more

We love Lipuma! Great food and amazing staff! My dog is a regular in there, we walk there once/twice a week to get a hot dog, the food is honestly the best and amazing service, the staff always smiling and always so happy and it truly makes a huge difference especially nowadays. Da Vinci is their number one customer, he knows that each time he passes by Lipuma that he must stop there and get a hot dog and say hello to the staff. Thanks Lipuma for being so great, we appreciate you! read more

The BEST coneys in the country. Grew up on them and it is a must when we come back to Michigan.

Great coneys, Chilli cheese fries, wedding soup, and boritos, family of 6 have been driving from Clarkston to Rochester just to eat here. It's cash only and a little expensive for such low cost food but it doesn't stop us from going. Just get in line it moves fast. read more

Lipuma's is a little slice of heaven! My boyfriend and I absolutely love trying new Coney Islands / hot dog restaurants. Our favorite place is Yesterdog in Grand Rapids, but sadly we can't afford to drive 6 hours round trip all the time just to get a hot dog. All the driving adds up and suddenly a $10 meal is now $40 with gas and such. Lipuma's definitely made sure to hit the spot for us! It's a bit of a hole in the wall dive, but the food and service more than make up for it if that's not your thing. Space is tight as well, but luckily there is some outdoor seating and it's close by the river where you can enjoy your meal outside too. I've been craving a Chicago dog ever since I recently came back from Chicago. Lipuma's delivered to my liking. The sport peepers added enough spice and flavor and the relish was quite sweet. The bun was soft. The real winner here is the chili cheese fries. What a steal for under $4!!The portion was huge and my boyfriend and I barely made a dent. We each ordered Chicago dogs and a drink, along with the fries. Our bill was about $13 -- awesome! Can't wait to return soon when the weather is nicer! read more
