Andrew's Atomic Dogs is the newest "dog" spot in Spartanburg, and it is one worth trying! You can find it on Union Street, across from Duncan Park - look for the red awning.
Inside, the space is small and the line was nearly out the door when we arrived! Be aware at the height of lunch hour that it might be difficult to get a table. Also, full disclosure, either the air conditioner was broken or they don't have it hooked up yet. It was quite warm inside, but not unbearable. The menu was printed and passed down the line as folks ordered, and it took about 10-15 minutes for the food to come out. They did a great job with the space, which has a quaint diner feel.

The menu is simple, with 4 dog choices - house dog, atomic dog, turkey dog and sausage dog. Choose one, and add your own toppings. A must-try is the atomic chili for sure! It is a great combination of sweet and spicy. The house chili is very similar, just without the spice, so it tends to be on the sweeter side. Also on the sweeter side, the sweet tea - like syrupy sweet!
I tried the atomic dog (I love spice!) with cheese and the turkey dog with house chili, while the hubs got two house dogs with house chili, one with cheese and one with onions. Add fries and onion rings and you have way too much for lunch, but it was all good. The Facebook page advertises "fresh dipped and battered onion rings", but the ones I got looked a bit different. Fries were pretty standard.
The food came out piping hot, and I love how loaded the dogs were with the toppings. Great ratio of dog:bun:toppings. The turkey dog was great too if you are looking for a lighter option!
Hot dogs can be a personal preference, just like burgers, so try Andrew's Atomic Dogs for yourself and let us know what you think!
