Must be a tough Mainer with a cast iron stomach meant to eat a mack truck. Awful, low quality gut bubbling slop. The bacon chili dogs were a pile of mush followed by painful bathroom trips later. Tried a second time and got a bacon "burger". The salisbury steakish patty they called a burger was just awful. The onion and mustard flavor was DELICIOUS but masked by the horrid slab of mystery meat in the middle. This place used to be iconic, now they just want more money for less quality.

Best hotdogs in belfast. Fresh cooked dog on a hot steamed bun with your choice if toppings what's not to like. You would think it's a messy eat but the toppings are just right. Recommend the Western dog and chili cheese dog. One is not enough

The hotdogs are just ok, nothing special. The buns were steamed and soggy. The person who took my order must have been having a rough day because she wasn't pleasant. Red hotdogs would be a much better option (grilled).

Some things are meant to be greasy, and Wasses is one of those things. Time your trip with the Friday night antique auto show, also in the Reny's plaza parking lot, and you'll have recreated one of my fondest childhood memories.

I've been going here off and on since I was in High School over 20 years ago now. Small food shops have always been a personal favorite of mine, the hole in the wall, so to speak. This little place has the best Chili Cheese Dogs. They also have a variety of other hot dog favorites and even burgers. This is a great quick stop for lunch or an on the go snack. The people are great and friendly. Service is very prompt. Do bare in mind that it is a popular stop and could be busy during lunchtime hours, but I feel the wait is worth it. I'm almost willing to bet that Sonic The Hedgehog would approve of this place, due to his love of Chili Dogs. Bonne Appetite!

Classic Belfast tradition, there's just something about their hot dogs and sauerkraut. Don't forget the fried onions!

Wasses hot dogs in Belfast Maine are outstanding! They also make Cheeseburgers. If you want everything on the hot dog including Ketsup make sure you specify. Also to my knowledge they do use peanut oil for frying just in case anyone has allergies. You should know this but ask just in case they have made any changes.

The burgers and hotdogs are great. Service is fast and very friendly. The price is right too. Not sure why people think its over priced. We paid $18 and got 2 hotdogs 2 hamburgers 2 chips and 2 sodas. Compared to other fast food joints that is still amazing only this food is 100% better.

If hot dogs were better for me I would be here once per week. This is the hot dog gold standard for me. You know the hot dogs are good when you are at a nearby highly rated lobster pound for lunch and over hear residents from a retirement community who have been bussed in for lunch cheering that the next stop will be Wasses. Apparently in their minds hot dogs beat out lobster rolls. That was 8 years ago and I have been coming to Wasses ever since. Hot dogs are grilled and the buns are steamed making a perfect combination. The hotdogs themselves are on the small side, which I like because I can get two and mix up the toppings. But alas, I never mix up the toppings, it is straight mustard and relish for me . The hotdog stand is in the Reny's Plaza so you can have a twofer of a great time. There are a couple of picnic tables but most people grab their dogs and eat in the car. No gluten free options here and it is cash only. Don't despair if you see a long line as it will move quickly.

The food was out of sight. This hot dog stand was worth the trip to Maine. Stopped for lunch and have thought about it ever since. Do yourself a favor and stop and get yourself a hot dog.

When you're a little hungry & you spy a huge line for food someplace, you have to stop! Their dogs are in a steamed, fluffy soft bun. Not huge, & simple. Both the drive thru & walk up lines were busy & yet moved pretty fast. Though some older pics here show fries, they weren't on the current menu. But they did have bags of chips, & brownies & cookies. Cash only!

Hot dog was cooked well. Didn't get grilled onions but they also were nicely browned. Tried the kraut dog with mustard - could use more mustard as you just get one strip down the center. The kraut was regular from a can or bag, but drained very nicely. The best part was the bun; like a cross between a hot dog bun and a slice of white bread...definitely didn't feel like there was too much bread to dog ratio. Just wish the bread was toasted and it would have been really great bread!

Great Maine style dogs with snap in classic drive thru settings. I always get mustard, kraut, onions and relish -- the bun is steamed and so it melts in your mouth giving way to an above average hot dog experience. Wasses is solid and has become a summertime ritual.

Drove by this drive up hot dog window. Thought it sounded good. It was very good! I had the Kraut dog with onions and mustard. My husband had chili cheese dog. Both very tasty. The chili was more like a rich sauce. Tasty.They use white sandwich bread as the bun. Just like when I was a kid LOL. Except these buns were specially made. White bread shaped like a hotdog bun. The hot dogs came out about three minutes after we ordered them.They also have hamburgers and cheeseburgers. Small one quarter pound ones. The hotdog was about five bites but it was delicious. If you're driving around or through Belfast check out. Wasses Hot dog drive-through. I suggest you get two :)

I was on the way from bar harbor to Portland and was debating where to get lunch and I was turning into the next road google maps told me to take when I spotted this gem and it just spoke straight to my soul. There were also like 5 cars lined up and some solid yelp reviews which were confirmation that I must eat there. I love hot dogs but will readily admit they are not necessarily a delicious food but these hot dogs were actually delicious. I tried the bacon, kraut, and also the plain. I personally don't love sauerkraut(confirmed after trying) but felt like it was part of the experience so I had to get it. The hot dog buns were also really good. It was like a normal bun except the sides were shaved off and it somehow made it more delicious! It's cash only and the prices are like $3-4 each. Other reviews mentioned fries but there were not fries. They do have a picnic table but we just ate in the car since it was a drive thru!

Is Wassas under new management because for the first time in years I got a hotdog it wasn't up to their standards. And did not see the girls there either. Cuffy phair@gmail.com please let me know as I go to Belfast quite frequently and normally enjoy the hot dog.

Saw this hot dog truck just after taking the exit and I love a good hot dog so we stopped for lunch. Hubby & I both got chili dogs with everything and they definitely hit the spot. They saute the onions here and put all the condiments on the hot dog before topping with chili and the steamed New England bun was so fresh my napkin got stuck to it. Paid $9.25 for 2 chili dogs, can of soda & bag of chips which is a great deal for a good quality hot dog generously topped with homemade chili, I can see why they've sold over 5 million hot dogs. There's plenty of parking and picnic tables outside plus they even have s drive thru, definitely glad we stopped.

The Rockland location is just a stand in a parking lot, which doesn't do justice to the amazing hot dog experience that awaits. If the scent of grilled onions doesn't lure you in, maybe the smell of freshly grilled hot dogs will do the trick. The top split buns are steamed to perfection and snugly hold a crispy grilled dog. They'll put anything on it you want - kraut, onions, bacon, chili, various condiments. The hot dogs are snappy and nicely hot with whatever toppings you need. The fries are the crinkle cut kind perfectly crisp and hot. They also have chips and drinks. The line is long around lunchtime or the peak of tourist season, but it actually moves pretty quickly. All they have to do is dress your dog and pass it out the window, so it's a fast stop even if there are 10 people in front. Cash only, no credit cards, so be ready. Never miss a chance to grab a dog at Wasses!

Finally made it to Wasses Hotdogs and I was not disappointed. I ordered two Kraut Dogs.there is nothing better than a hotdog dressed in mustard, relish, ketchup and Kraut nestled in a fresh steamed hotdog bun.

Visited Wasses Hot Dogs per my friend's recommendation. She was not wrong about her recommendation. I got 2 hotdogs, one sauerkraut and one bacon hotdog, and an order of fries. They were simple yet very good hot dogs snuggled between a warm Maine hot dog bun topped off with all the fixings. The fries were warm and nicely seasoned. At less than $8 for all, it's simply a bang for your buck. Will definitely return. *Cash only btw*

6/21/19 - Belfast Wasses has NOT closed down. We just left there. I love Wasses. Friendly people, great hot dogs.

A co-worker in Maine suggested stopping here for the hot dogs. I am not sure if this is the location we stopped at or not but hot dogs sure look the same. Great price and nice and fast. We were able to eat at the picnic table outside. The hot dogs are cooked in oil. I got fried onions, xmustard and kraut. We wanted to stop back again on the way home but they were not open on Sundays. If I pass by one of the Wasses again I would be sure to stop for a snack!

Awesome hot dogs and cheese fries with the bonus of strawberry and chocolate milk options to soda! Great quick toad eats with super friendly staff!

Wasses grills their dogs and finishes them off with fried onions and a bunch of other toppings. The bun is the standard Maine hot dog bun, slightly warmed. Their cheeseburgers with grilled onions tastes great together!

Great little hot dog place. Got two dogs with ketchup mustard and grilled onions. The dogs had a nice snap. It's in the same mall as Reny's.

When you want a good fresh greasy burger this is the best! Had my fix today! Best hotdogs, too. You can customize it with onions, condiments, chili, hot realism, cheese, whatever you want. Has a drive thru. Menu is small and simple.

One of the best hotdogs I've had in a long time! Got one with kraut (awesome!) and one with everything (mustard, relish, grilled onions... the onions were chopped and grilled along with the dogs. Delicious!) Window service was quick and around $5 bucks for 2 dogs you can't beat that. *Cash only!

I flat-out love Wasses hot dogs. Funny, I told them the other day that I'm practically a vegan but that I have to get my wasses fix every so often -- and the nice lady behind the window said, "I hear that a lot." Thank heaven I live in Belfast, and can visit as often as I want. Except today which is Sunday. And I have a craving. Dang.

Great simple hot dog with all the trimmings. Very friendly and pet friendly too with dog biscuits. A great change of pace.
