Best hot dogs in New York

No. 6 on that list
Worth it
  • Address7th Ave &, W 56th St, New York, 10011
  • From my guide, updated March 2024.

There are a ton of hotdog carts peppered throughout Central Park (and they’re more than serviceable) but only two blocks away on 57th Street is a hot dog joint that takes it a step further. Carnigie John’s is a sandwich cart that makes quality NYC hotdogs in a super convenient location.

The cart is on the corner of 7th Avenue and 57th Street making it an easy destination before or after visiting the park. The dogs are inexpensive and appetizing, which is all you can ask for. Besides the classic New York City hotdogs Carnegie John’s also sells kebabs, falafels, and burgers.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
