Thirsty Dog 2 Go

Great variety, location, and wow they serve some of the best hot dogs and sausages. The 4 peaks beer brat was absolutely amazing. Drinks galore, you name it they have it.

I mean, if I could give this place zero stars, I would.
I went into Thirsty Dog today because I saw on the Hooked app that they had a special buy 1 get 1 deal. Having never eaten the hot dogs from this place before, I decided this was a good enough reason to try them. To be honest, I had had reservations about their hot dogs prior to this occasion because I had seen the way they were prepared in the times that I’ve stopped in to get an energy drink or quest bar, but I figured I’m only paying about $ 6 for 2 dogs so why not try it.
I regret this decision entirely.
After I got home, I loaded my hot dog with my condiments and began to eat it. I wasn’t super happy straight from the first bite, the bread was soggy, and the brat was practically mush. I had gotten a 4 Peaks Ale brat, so I figured that maybe because it had been soaking in the beer that that was the reason for the mush. But I take a couple more bites and I just realize that it shouldn’t be this soft and squishy and mushy. I look at the brat and lo and behold, it’s RAW. I’ve never seen a brat this pink in my entire life after cooking. It was immediately disgusted and threw both brats away.
I am extremely disappointed in this company as far as the hot dog side of it is concerned. The only thing I’m grateful for from this purchase was that I only had to pay for one.

Really good hot dogs, local convenience store, and it seems like one of everything — can of Pabst? nail clippers? toothpaste? stamps? Got ‘em. Large selection of beers. Highly recommend that you like this place too, and go there. The world needs more Thirsty Dogs!

This is a great hole in the wall place to have a quick bite. It feels cool, looks cool, and the food is tasty and reasonably priced. If you have kids this is a great ace to take them especially since it has a little selection of something sweet.

This place is a bit hidden sitting next to the post office on the southwest corner of Mill and 5^th. We were looking for the nearest convenience store and found it through Unilocal.It’s small inside, but they carry a little of everything. They have a small counter area where you can order and eat a fresh cooked beef hotdog. They have some yummy sounding combinations! Something to try on another day. The cashier was pleasant and even gave us some coupons for a return visit.

Daily stop for my every day needs. Quick service and friendly staff!

It’s bar food not recommended for lunch the food was really sad. However it might tasted great if your drunk.

I really dig this place.
It’s super convenient when you’re out on Mill and need to grab a cold beverage to go. They also have really good veggie hot dogs — I know, I was shocked, too!
Location is great and they’re always friendly.

Awesome Chicago Dog. I got the skinnier on, should of gotten the bigger one. Chips and a drink all good. Watched the Sunday NFL game from the counter. Lots of other goodies there in their «store» area. Well worth the price. Was there during the Arts Festival it was a nice rest stop. Will be back. The only draw back was the price, but they cater to what you want. Hey its a business, gotta keep the doors open.

Had to grab me one of those golden bear lemonade with mango az iced tea. However it’s not 99 cents which is super lame. Also had the 4 peaks beer sausage with sauerkraut and onions. It was tossed on the grill and came out delicious. Definitely will be back! 4 stars for not having standard 99 cent az iced teas all around

Huge, awesome hot dogs. All the toppings are delicious and they definitely load you up with them. The Chicago dog is great. Just the right amount of spice. Also offer a great beer selection. Will definitely return for a 6 pack of Kiltlifter and a hot dog.

Major plus for being the closest place to Tempe Mission Palms to sell beer to go. Literally a half a block away!
I also tried their Chicago Dog — fresh tomatoes, sport peppers, relish, pickle, mustard, and celery salt. All for $ 4.00. A+

Quick, affordable and yummy. Thirsty Dog rocks! It’s perfect for days when you need lunch and don’t have much time.
I have been here many times for the convenience store aspect to buy a pack of gum or a Redbull, but the other day I had a hot dog. Ahhhh!
First of all, there are many choices so I need to stop in more often! I loaded my dog with ketchup, tomato and a pickle. I could tell this was a quality hot dog. Some other brands taste cheap and make you wonder just what you are eating, but there’s no reason to be suspicious of these dogs!
So, how do you top your dog?
P. S. They have funny bumper stickers for free!

Definitely a good place to go when I am down the street at World of Beer. They no longer deliver there, but it is a short walk down the block. Good selection of beer in the cooler. I always get it to go, but they do have some seating. My favorite is the Southern Slawdog, but the Chicago and the coney are both good too. Really, I would try anything here. Always good service, quick, and descent priced.

Hot dogs are great. They recommended one with cream cheese, cheddar cheese and jalapenos — amazing!
Only downside is they can’t accommodate a huge rush crowd at lunch due to very limited seating (5 seats at the counter?) and only 1 or two workers every time I’ve been there. I’ve often had to wait quite awhile for the food, but it’s ok because the servers are upbeat and nice, it’s convenient to work… and it’s yummy!

This just popped up on the sidebar of places I’ve checked in at and have yet to review, and now I’m pretty sure I’m going to go get me a hotdog from Thirsty Dog.
Located in a convenience store, this little bar hosts some of the most magical ingredients ever tasted in regards to hot dogs. I’m genuinely not skilled enough to write a review of just how delicious these dogs are, and for that, I apologize. But just know that they are really, really delicious. All of them. Every combination of everything. So. Good.
I also love how they are open so late. I’m a night owl, so it’s nice when a place is open when I need it most.
The fact that it’s located in a convenience store does take it down a star, only because it’s a little bit awkward to fit in such a small area and eat while the bartender (dogtender?) tries to look past you to see the TV behind you. Worth it, though, to get a taste of those delicious dogs.
4.49 stars from this girl!

Open when you need something to be open.
Friendly staff who are happy to be there.
Delicious breakfast burrito and creative yummy hot dogs.
Be adventurous, let the cook pick and you won’t be disappointed.

This place has very tasty food and a good little atmosphere, as well as stocked with good beer. HOWEVER I think it is a little over priced for a hot dog and beer joint. Also it is lacking in proper seating. Could be a lot more enjoyable with more atmosphere. If you don’t mind paying a little extra and finding your own place to eat, then by all means enjoy these delicious hot dogs and (overpriced) drinks.

I was at the Post Office today in downtown Tempe, when I noticed the sign for Thirsty Dog 2 Go sticking out of the corner of the building. I looked around and didn’t see a hot dog place, but soon realized that it is tucked directly behind the Post Office. After drinking a thousand or so beers last night, a hot dog sounded great, so I ventured inside.
The first thing I noticed walking in was that they sell beer, wine, cigarettes, and a variety of snacks to consume there or to go. So in addition to being a small restaurant, they are also part convenient store, which is well, convenient.
The second thing I noticed was all of the cool wall art: old beer signs, an old sled, a couple of skateboards that looked like they might be the very first two skateboards ever made, and other memorabilia from way back when – very cool.
The dogs and sausages are good quality. I just had the regular hot dog, which was Vienna Beef (good stuff), but they also sell Italian andoulli, brats, polish sausage, and even veggie dogs for our vegetarian friends (we all have at least one, right?).
They also have a wide variety of fountain drinks, slushies, and ice cream for those hot summer days.
This place is the whole package, and while it may seem a bit pricey, it is a high quality conveinent store just off of Mill Ave, so the prices are comparable to any other lunch spot in the area.

WOW
cannot believe this place has such a good rating?!
pourquoi?
IMO «perro sediento» is completely «meh. i’ve experienced better»
the prices here are, well a little ridiculous for a friggen hot dog
and while they do have a good selection of sausages and dogs, it’s well a wee bit of a rip off!
i suppose we can make some allowances for them considering they’re a local buisness and not a chain, and rent on mill ave must be a bitch to contend with, but still.
C’MON
i will bump them up one star from my original 1 considering the previous factors and that they have a delicious Andouille sausage here; but i could probably buy six of them of better quality at Sprouts or Sunflower market.
