Here again to remind everyone how delicious bull city burgers is…read more Recently moved to NC and had to bring my partner here to try it out safe to say he won't shut up about how good the beers and burgers are here Brewed in house beers can't go wrong with the Bull city IPA Any burger you choose will have you smiling ear to ear just DONT SKIP on the duck frites absolutely HAVE to get them

I've been hearing about this Bull City Burger spot for over two months, (noted for their tasty…read moregrass-fed beef) and in watching the reviews -- I figured that the experience should be very pleasant; to the eyes and the palate. I was hoping I would not be disappointed. Downtown Durham on Parrish Street I do believe. I went there midday and there was a sparse lunch crowd already seated when I arrived. The warmly lit space presents nice aesthetic as you walk into the restaurant. A very chill and comfortable atmosphere. I love the bar and the mirrored wall nestled behind it. The spot is pretty laidback and very clean, but has a bit of a rustic nuance to it as well. I like that. The serving staff were extremely nice and helpful towards advising me in making my selection -- with me being a first-timer and all. I kept it simple...I chose the Classic Burger (pink) with pepper jack cheese, bacon marmalade, and as a side, I had to go with the Dirty Fries -- 'cause that's how I roll y'all. About the food: I have to say, the burger was staunchly built and crafted with artistry. Nice and tall with a seriously tasty bun encapsulating everything. Perfectly well-seasoned meat and the first bite was simply delightful. I noticed as I got towards the center of the meat, it was bit less juicy than the surrounding parts of the burger, but nevertheless still tasty. My Dirty Fries were delicious In the end; the experience as a whole was quite delightful and I would definitely like to go there again -- perhaps try a different burger to expand upon my experience with this place. Gotta try out That Bar y'all! I do recommend it for those who haven't had a chance to go by there to check it out.

These folks have been around forever, it seems (actually since about 1970), and the chili dogs…read moreremain a favorite of ours. There are five locations, 4 in Durham, and a very small location in Hillsborough - none have inside seating, though there is a very limited amount of outside seating in some locations. They offer six or seven specialty dogs, a sausage dog, just added chopped pork BBQ, Brunswick Stew, FFs, Baked Beans, and Fried Apple Turnovers, and they have just added an all beef wiener option - but with this very meaty chili (and they load it on), the screaming neon red Southern style wiener is best, imho. I love the dogs here, and we grabbed a couple on our way through Durham yesterday - as good as ever. Sure do wish they'd setup shop in Greensboro - the Chili Dog Desert of the Southeast.

If you were looking for a tasteless, pasty mealy textured hot dog with no flavor that is overall…read morethe size of in between a pig and the blanket and a regular hotdog, then this is the place for you. Really, how can you mess up a hot dog? I ordered the bulldog which is a chili dog with a little bit of coleslaw sort of mixed in and if I hadn't been completely out of food, I would've thrown them out. Don't waste your money or time at this cute little stand. I was so excited, but it turned out to be a sad time. I also ordered fries and they give you a tremendous amount, but they are not seasoned at all and so even with ketchup, they are really bad. Coming from the Midwest, where brats and Chicago hot dogs are popular, I am sorry to say The Dog House offers something you'd scrape up off the dog run concrete after it rained.
