Dad's Dog & Burger

Made it out to Dad’s dog and burgers in Bloomfield for lunch yesterday. This place is just a really cool vibe, down to earth place. No frills burgers and dogs that are just damn good too. The fries were crispy and salty. The burgers had a nice crispy edge to them, the onions were nice and fried, and the beef was really good. The hot dog was so good, snappy, and had great flavor along with the grilled bun giving it an extra bite. This quickly became one of my favorite spots in the city and I want to come back soon. Really awesome place and definitely suggest hitting it up! The place is small so be ready for a wait and tables are first come first served but it’s definitely worth it. Everyone was super nice and great.

Finally had the chance to stop in and eat at dad’s dog and burger. I have to say they have a good cheeseburger, hot dog, and fries! Cheeseburger was comparable to the hot dog shoppe (very thin, crispy, and juicy)! Fries were hot and fresh and the hot dog was excellent. It’s all worth the price, especially with them being a new small business. The only reason I am giving this four stars is I HATED the chili. It tasted like sweet mushy beans and totally threw off my burger and fries since I got it on everything. I suggest getting a side of chili vs putting on the fries/hot dog/burger or whatever you choose to go with unless you’re 100% sure you like broth monger who they get it from. Overall, the staff was nice. Went at lunch and it was busy! The team was efficient, pumped orders out quickly, and there was minimal wait. Facility is clean and offers a couple booths and breakfast counter seating. Street parking only! I highly recommend but remember to get the chili on the side as it’s definitely an acquired taste.

Old School feeling with great food. I got the burger and fries, both were cooked to perfection. My wife got the hot dog and said it was good. Food was cooked quick. Place is small so be prepared to wait for a table or somewhere to sit but it clears up quick. Would definitely go back. Prices were fair.

A yinzer-millennial retro-cool burger joint. A wonderful experience and a breath of fresh air in a sea of other over priced cash grabbing restaurants in the city In general it’s like a fast casual thing w a twist on a 1950s/60s classic burger diner. Has a fun lively playful feel. Service was beyond friendly. Not a lot of seating but that also added to the lively feel, it was busy. In some ways it reminded me of a local millennial cool twist of the west coast in and out model. The food is 50s traditional and done well. Burger was cooked well an outside crisp yet still tender. Crisp onions added a wonderful bite and sharper flavor. Loved the potato roll which also added. Thin crisp Fries reminded me of in and out, but a bit better and not as cardboarded-y. Portions were nicely good and w a value. I like they aren’t trying to be desperately creative with the food, having to overly ‘elevate’ something or rename basic things in order to charge 50% more. It’s basic and classic and at a reasonably fair price. I believe pgh will respect this heavily Overall this place is great. I hope that more places try to be like this instead of just another meat and potatoes model restaurant, or another restaurant trying to push the prices even higher. 100% in everyway recommended

absolutely love this place. feels like a cozy spot to chat with friends with great food! i’ve tried both the burgers and hotdogs and they’re pretty amazing! only downside is a filling meal of two burgers, fries, and a drink for one ended up costing me $25 which in my opinion is a bit steep for an old fashioned diner. i will be returning but wish i could come more frequently alas i cannot be spending $25 on burgers very often!

Such a great spot! Good food, wonderful owner and very cool vibe inside. We will be back and I can’t wait to get a milkshake next time! We got the double cheese burger, chili cheese burger, onion rings, chili cheese dog and cheese fries. Burgers were great! The fries were crispy and the cheese sauce was homemade. The hot dog was super high quality with natural casing. Chili was also very flavorful.

So i went to the Grand Opening of Dad’s Dog and Burger with my Grandmother. Free giveaways we got was a popsicle that’s actually a hot dog with chocolate on the inside. A Cupcake that is actually a Burger with Icing as the toppings in there. But then we sat at the booth stand and we ordered. I got a Cheeseburger where one thing that is interesting is that while they cook the burgers, they put butter on top to not make it stick and when i tried it, it was really good that way. My Grandmother on the other hand got a hot dog and she really loved it. My feedback for this place is that it is so delightful filled with very nice owners and employees, everything on the menu is actually pretty cheap where you can get a Double Cheeseburger for $7 and a Chili Cheese Dog for $7.50. And honestly i’m glad they bought this business (Formally G&M Dog n Burger Shoppe) making this one of the only old school diners that is left in Pennsylvania. I love that they kept all of the Pirates and Steelers stuff inside to look and didn’t get rid of them, and kept other classic stuff in there too. Honestly this is a great recommendation to go eat for lunch 🍔🌭🍟🥤

I was looking for a place that was part smashburger, part diner. I found both. Located in Bloomfield, this small but tasty burger and dog joint is exactly what I wanted. Greasy spoon with great service and perfect fries. Bonus is; it’s not expensive!
