"I Dream of Weenie, East Nashville’s cute little vintage VW bus-turned-hot-dog-stand, turns out festive hot dogs with inventive toppings at appetizing prices. Every item rings up well under $10, including charcoal-grilled dogs topped with pimento cheese or chili cheese." - Kellie Walton

"More Like a Food Van It's not like the fleet of mobile trucks around town, because this hot dog purveyor working out of a VW bus stays parked in the heart of East Nashville’s Five Points. The menu includes tofu dogs as well as beef and turkey with variations such as the Rebel Yelp (topped with Tennessee hot chow chow, red onion, mustard and jalapeno). It also includes good people watching if you take your dinner to the adjacent grassy patch."

Amazing little place. You at first don’t notice the location but once you take another look you can see the little charm it has with the hotdog van outside. The food here was amazing with different options for different people. The service was fast and easy just needing to wait for food. The atmosphere is amazing with the interior decorated with hotdogs and merch you can buy. If coming back to Nashville, will need to visit again.

I Dream of Weenie is hands down one of the most unique and delicious food spots in Nashville! The variety of weenie creations is incredible – they’ve taken the humble hot dog and turned it into an art form. The corn dog dough was unbelievably light and flavorful, nothing like the heavy versions I’ve had elsewhere. The Picnic in a Bun was the perfect mix of sweet and savory, with caramelized bacon, creamy coleslaw, and baked beans all coming together in one bite. The Mac and Cheese Weenie was pure comfort food bliss – cheesy, gooey, and perfectly paired with the snap of the hot dog. Every bite makes you want to try the next creation. Honestly, I wish I lived closer so I could make my way through the whole menu. This place is an absolute must-visit when in Nashville – you won’t regret it! 🌭✨

I Dream of Weenie is such a fun and unique spot in Nashville! My wife and I stopped by while exploring the area, and we were both really impressed. We each ordered hot dogs, and they were awesome — full of flavor and cooked just right. They have a great variety of toppings, so there’s something for everyone. We also tried the fried green tomatoes, and they were easily some of the best we’ve ever had — crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned perfectly. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. You can tell they really care about what they do and want you to have a good experience. They helped us decide what to order and made us feel right at home. It’s the kind of place that makes you smile as soon as you walk up. The setup is also super cute — it’s a little retro-looking food truck-style spot with outdoor seating that adds to the charm. It’s casual, fun, and full of personality. If you’re in Nashville and want something quick, delicious, and different from the usual, I Dream of Weenie is a must-visit. We’re already planning to come back next time we’re in town!

We intended on taking a food tour while in Nashville but time ran short. I noted this was one of the stops on the tour we were looking at, so when we wanted lunch one day we drove to the five points area. This neighborhood is well known for great food and the hot dogs didn't disappoint they were outstanding!! We sampled 3 different dogs they were generous in size and fairly priced. The staff was helpful and fast. Thanks again!!!

Really cool little spot in fun neighborhood. Beef hotdog pretty good and thought bun was very good for a spot like this. Clean and inviting inside with ice cream and brunch options Great place to go before or during games at bongos across the street

Absolutely delicious! I'm already looking forward to my next visit. The fries were perfectly crispy, and the chili cheese dog was packed with flavor. We also ordered a delicious bratwurst packed with spicy toppings, highly recommend. But the standout? The fried mac and cheese balls—seriously unforgettable. I couldn't stop talking about them all night. The prices are super reasonable, and the portions will definitely leave you full and satisfied. The staff were incredibly friendly and really took the time to make sure you got the exact hot dog you were craving. I can't wait to recommend this spot to everyone I know!
