2. Hot Chicken Takeover
Your whole group will be treated like family when you dine here. Order at the counter and then relax in the unique, barn-like dining room. They prepare 100% fresh chicken as well as a host of Southern-style sides. Choose from tenders, thighs, drums, breast, gluten-free, boneless, or the whole chicken. They even have a veggie option–try the plant-based nuggets with the vegan ranch dipping sauce. Choose your spice level, from cold, warm, hot, and holy.

5. Dirty Frank’s Hot Dog Palace
You won’t find fancy cutlery or a large dining area at Dirty Frank’s, but what you will find is tasty food, friendly servers, and great prices! Vegetarians and meat-eaters alike can enjoy everything they have to offer, like the beef, veggie, and vegan hot dogs. They offer a variety of toppings as well. Try a combo meal or simply ask to customize your meal just the way you like it. We also love the tater tots and fries as a side.
