Sometimes, you just gotta have Rod's. Sometimes, no other hot dog/weiner/gagger will do. Stopped by myself for a quick weekday lunch. As good or better than I remembered. I think it's the weiner sauce that separates Rod's from all the competition. Friendly and fast service. Rod's is an institution. read more

Rod's Grille - Three, no onions and an order of fries. - Diners Near Me - Warren, Rhode Island

The server I had got me a coffee and water immediately. Once my order was ready it came out. As soon as I finished my water she asked if I wanted a refill. The dog I had was great but I could go for a pickle or mustard with it. I could have asked though, so not faulting them on that. I did ask for a breakfast sandwich to go and felt it was salty but I haven been complaining about that to my wife in the last year and haven't been back to mainland USA in years. It looks like an everyday dinner and I'll 100% be back. The only very minor, non-grading scale, issue I had was there was a tv but it was showing KENO/KINO(?), if they had one playing local news or sports this place would be a 6/5 for me. read more

Every time we have a boat at the Blount shipyard I take the crew to Rod's grill. Warren's best lunch spot!

A cute diner that is perfect for a lazy Sunday breakfast. It is homey and has tables for groups and stools at an open kitchen for single diners. The homefries were tasty and the chorico added a salty bite. read more

Rod's Grille - Chorico, Eggs (2) Toast & Homefries - Diners Near Me - Warren, Rhode Island

I'm overdue for not posting here about Rod's previously, considering I have been eating here for twenty years or so. Food is fresh and delicious. I usually struggle to decide between three wieners with the works or a cheeseburger. Usually have a side of fries and a soda, too. You can't go wrong in any case. Service is quick and friendly, atmosphere is like a diner from the 1970s, which people "of a certain age" will appreciate. read more

We are so lucky to have this great place right in town. The food is hearty and served by the friendliest staff ever. It puts a smile on your face to go there read more

Hot dogs were pencil thin! Mostly bread with very little meat. Expensive for what you get. Btw, the taller girl with the long hair lacks any personality at all. Love when you pay for the food, not even get a thank you! Want real dogs, try fall river, new bedford area, at least you get a full size hot dog and someone that appreciates your business. Thank you read more

Old school diner and counter service. Classic Rhode Island wieners and other favorites. Will have to come back for breakfast next time!

Man, I never really go out for wieners but this was by far the best ones I've had. My girl friend showed me this place, the meat sauce is delicious... I got two and then got another one excellent! Great grilled cheese too! read more

Rod's Grille - a chili dog in a bun - Diners Near Me - Warren, Rhode Island

I've been a couple of times now to get the famous hot dogs. Both times I've gone, it's been pretty busy. I got 3 hot dogs with ketchup & onions, and they were super. I tried it with "the works" the first time, and found it to be a little too salty for me but still tasted great. My boyfriend and I split a small cheese fry. We enjoy coming here when we're craving hot dogs ! I'd like to expand and try some other items - like their Turkey burger or even regular burgers next time we go. Again, it can be busy !!! Parking is limited. Know before you go read more

Went to Rod's Grill for the first time with my wife, parking is in a side street could be tight. walked in it was like an old-school place which I like sat down. Waitress was friendly. We got the wieners which is a Rhode Island thing with the works. Fries were hot. We ended up getting water, Price was reasonable overall great place. read more

An authentic diner with Nirvana playing on the radio on a Saturday morning is my type of place. I happened upon Rod's before going to walk around on Main Street. It's cute, homey, and clean inside. The type of place where everyone knows everyone. My husband and I ordered a regular breakfast, and it was very good. We especially liked the blueberry muffin and raisin bread. Service was good as well. We will be back! read more

So so good! The food is amazing and the workers are just the sweetest. Very clean and even though the restaurant isn't the biggest you'll always be able to find a seat. The food never takes long either! read more

I grew up eating weiners in Woonsocket from New York Lunch. While they are amazing... Rod's Grille has shown me something better. I know it's just weiners, but theirs just seems to be just that much better. The place is very clean and I loved the onion rings! Glad I was able to try Rod's. read more

Rod's Grille - 2 w/ works... 2 w/ nacho cheese - Diners Near Me - Warren, Rhode Island

Rod's Grille - Western Omelet with seasoned home fries. - Diners Near Me - Warren, Rhode Island

See all

It's been 10 year since I last had Rods Grill and I can say it has not changed amazing dinner and the best wieners around.

Excellent food and prices one Weiner is only 3 dollars while if you were to go somewhere else it'd be 10 dollars for one hotdog.

A Town Staple - Not Cheap Weiners w/ the works, just meat sauce, or an Addie special. It's all good. Add onion rings to make it even better. A bit overpriced priced, not as cheap as it used to be. If weiners aren't your thing they have other things that are great too, including a steak and cheese. Love the service, they know what they are doing and do it right. They aren't going to hover over you and be super flowery, but they are a weiner place. Love the atmosphere for a quick lunch. Plus you can play keno while you eat. Tip: Bring Cash Thanks read more

Classic hot wieners and friendly staff in a classic breakfast / lunch spot. Takeout was quick and efficient.

I love that they FINALLY take cards. So many years being cash only killed me. The burgers are greasy and scrumptious. The fry portions are huge. Their wieners?! Fantastic. I don't even want to know the recipe I'd the meat sauce because I'd never be able to duplicate it. They are VERY busy usually with a line out of the door. Do not let that deter you!! The simplicity of the food makes it taste amazing!!! It's not on the list of diet food places but if you have a hankering, it's well worth going. Who knows, you might not have to wait in line if you time it right. read more

I had a gift certificate burning a hole in my pocket for a good two years so I finally made the trek for some breakfast/lunch. I had a chorico omelette with seasoned home fries and a grilled bolo. My wife had three weiners "all the way" which means mustard, onions, and meat sauce. The food was good but their air conditioning couldn't keep up and after 20mins in the place I was sweatin' like Richard Simmons used to sweat to the oldies. My wife commented that the weiners were good, but they weren't any better than places closer to us like Eats in Seekonk. I used the bathroom and it was a million degrees in there, yikes! So what's the bottom line? Food was good, service was friendly, worth your while if you're in the area but no need to make a special trip. read more

Rod's Grille - Chorico omelette with some home fries and a bolo - Diners Near Me - Warren, Rhode Island

Best Rhode Island hot weiners in the state. Hands down, no competition. Addys Burger (bacon cheeseburger on Portuguese bolo) is one of my favorites as well. Wash em' down with a cold coffee milk and life is good. Good, friendly service and charming atmosphere. Overall - 4.5 Hot Weiners - 4.8 Addys Burger - 4.6 French Fries - 3.0 Onion Rings - 3.0 read more

Don't go there for a salad, unless you are a dieting rabbit. I finally made the trek for some breakfast/lunch. Got two hot weiners with the works. Above-average greasy spoon with excellent wieners. The prices have definitely gone up way too much and the quality has gone down. I had to head into Barrington this morning and needed to grab breakfast. Chourico hash and home fries from the grill. Will definitely come again for the famous coffee and t shirt. You never know if they'll be open. Today I came across Rod's Grill by luck. My wife had three weiners "all the way" which means mustard, onions, and meat sauce. My kids and I have been coming here for years and never once walked out of here disappointed. The food is ordinary. My grandmother lived a block away from Rod's Grille on Washington St. Ordered just a simple bolo breakfast sandwich. Has been here as long as I can remember. Graying to be sure, but still here! Wonderful! read more

My grandmother lived a block away from Rod's Grille on Washington St. When I was a kid I'd go over to her house and mow the lawn and work in her garden. When it was lunch time, she would give me two dollars to get us lunch at Rods. Back in the day, 2 bucks got you six wieners (all the way) an order of fries and a coffee milk. The wieners come wrapped in two's in waxed paper, and if the bottom of the brown paper bag isn't a little greasy by the time you get them home, then there's something wrong. Years later, my grandmother Ruthie and her downstairs tenant Dorothy (Dot) would still walk up the street to Rod's for coffee and a muffin. The last time I visited RI I went there for lunch and the food was just as good as I remembered. Seriously, the hot wieners at Rod's Grille are the best! read more

Awesome hot weiners and coffee milk as always! Miss my hometown grill everyone I visit I get at least 6 all the way !! Friendly staff.

I had to head into Barrington this morning and need to grab breakfast. Didn't want to go to a franchised place, so hopped on yelp and found exactly what I was looking for. An old fashion small business shop. Good coffee and friendly with a smile service (Nicole). Order just a simple bolo breakfast sandwich. It was as perfect as you can get. I usually hold on the cheese, but I forgot this time. Glad I did, it accented the sandwich just right. The egg was cooked perfectly, jelled just a little for perfect moisture. (Am I using perfect too much, oh well) I think parking could be a challenge. They do have a few spots behind the shop, but .... shhh..... don't let that get around. Let's keep it to ourselves. I'll be back. read more

Highly recommended. Friendly service, great food, and a local institution. Especially good for breakfast. Chourico hash and home fries from the grill are outstanding. read more

Above-average greasy spoon with excellent wieners, bolo breakfast sandwiches, home fries and really friendly service. They have both fried and grilled homefries, and the grilled ones are lathered in a delicious rosemary mix.. The best! read more

Ahhhhhh Rod's! After seeing family, Rod's is always one of my first stops when I return home. The counter service is always friendly and quick. Prices are reasonable, and the burger.... Yes, I said the burger. While people normally race about the wiener, it's never been my thing. That being said, Rod's has, and always has had one of my all time favorite burgers. Pair it with some perfectly salted fries and a fountain Coca-Cola and it's easy to see why I stop in every time I venture back to Warren. read more

Cheap eats, breakfast and grill- hot dogs, burgers, grilled chicken. free refills on the fountain drinks. The staff is nice once you get to know them, but don't expect them to refil your drink without your having to wave them over a couple of times. Cash only. Lots of townies, very casual, bar seating. read more

Ive been going to Rods since i was young,it was a every saturday lunch with the boys..wieners were cheap and great(4 with the works please)...the addys burger and chicken deluxe sandwich were also a favorite..I have to say in the last 5-10 years the prices have defiantly gone up way too much and the quality has gone down...the best thing going now is free refills...if i do go which is maybe once a year get ready to spend a quick 20 for a non-flavorful burger,2 dogs with a bland sauce and a drink(but you do get free refills)..the service is good and they all have been there since i remember read more

Rod's Grille - Diners Near Me - Warren, Rhode Island

Ive been coming to rods my whole life. it is a local place that everybody has to go to when they are visiting warren. but for the prices..its really not worth it anymore. you get a small cheeseburger for like 3.99. thats not even fries. the winers are close to 2.50 a piece..which i think is a little pricey for a hotdog. but its mostly for people who are visiting home and want to remember good times. i come here like twice a year tops and im always like wow why dont i come here more..too expensive for the little quality food you get read more

Excellent food and service. Real old school diner type feeling. The Rhode Island Wieners are UNREAL!! I would eat lunch here every day if I was from the area. Stop in and you will not regret it!!! The meat sauce they use makes the wiener, try it before you knock it. Would drive miles for this place. read more

Really impressed with this place, especially the breakfast potatoes and Bolos. Couldn't help but order a nice afternoon hot dog and was helped by a sweet Latina girl named Meghito who was very helpful and pretty and had a good smile. Will definitely come again for the famous coffee and t shirt. read more

Rod's Grille is a cute little diner. They are cheap and have their famous the "works" weniers, burgers and many sandwich options. I love this place personally for the nice people and great food, you can see them even make your food right in front of you. They also have Keno which you can play while eating. Overall a very nice place I would recommend to anyone in the area!! read more

Decent hot dogs. Love the atmosphere and friendly staff. It's a cute little lunch date place!

Some of the best wieners around! You've never had a wiener, until you've gone to Rod's. Order your dog all the way, it's the best. The fries aren't bad either. Some of the friendliest staff around. Would definitely recommend this place to a friend. read more

Stopped here on Wed (6/3) while spending the day w/my girls, celebrating my b-day. We noticed the pretty flowers outside and looked like outdoor dining, so we stopped and we're pleasantly surprised! From the owner Addy, husband Rod and staff, food was great, outdoor seating wonderful but converstation with Addy was Priceless! Will definitely be back w/friends and family, especially since we aren't able to enjoy dining in Massachusetts yet. Thanks for a wonderful viist! read more

Greasy wiener joint. Wieners are great and so are the burgers. Try the Addy's burger - cheeseburger on a Portuguese sweet roll, banana peppers, lettuce and tomato. Staff is very surly. I've been going here for years and every time I go in it's like they've never seen me before. Gotta love RI. read more

I've eaten here a half-dozen times and was never impressed. It's a typical diner with inexpensive food. Despite that, I had a couple items that I thought were over-priced. The local paper has done several short articles about Rod's as if Rod's were some kind of local institution. After a while I figured out that those were fluff pieces (i.e., paid for by Rod's). This place is no institution, and the food is ordinary. One more thing: they don't close at the same time every day, so if you go in the late afternoon, you never know if they'll be open. I've never figured out why they do that. read more
