Big Apple Hot Dogs in Newcastle upon Tyne

Been a couple times. It’s OK.Went for the great white buffalo burger- ungenerous on the sauce, not well constructed and the chicken was salty. They seemingly have an approach of putting the sauce directly on the tray instead of the burger.Service is hit and miss. Some of the younger staff have a social between themselves so it’s not very attentive and you don’t get checked up on.It is in a basement and feels like it too. Probably wouldn’t come back.

We had bee wanting to try her for a while. Wasn't disappointed, great tasting food, big portions, good service. We both had different meals. One burger and the MI5, which was huge, I couldn't finish it all. They did offer to do a doggy bag in I wanted too.

Let's start with the not so good. The location is in a basement. Maybe the ventilation is not good enough so it smells a bit.But... Once the food arrives you won't remember that. The burgers are really good. I had one of the butter milk fried chien burgers and a milk shake and both were really good. The burgers come with fries or chips. The friends I think have rosemary salt on it which is a nice touch.The kids meals are a generous portion. The burgers can with one patty but otherwise it was the same as the adult burger. The kids milkshake is half portion but was otherwise the same as a full size one.

Me and my husband visited today on the recommendation of my niece, her husband and 13 year old daughter. We are so pleased we came, it was my husband's Birthday.Food was very tasty, best onion rings ever!We were advised before we came not to order starters and we were pleased we didn't. If we'd had starters I don't think we would have finished our main meal which would have been a shame.Waiters are very pleasant and do not hassle you when ordering. Loved everything about the place nd we will certainly return.

Fabulous! Delicious burgers so juicy & fresh....great drinks & shakes, in quirky surroundings, shout out to our server David! Looked after us really well & was very friendly! Can't wait to return:-)

So impressed! Food was SO DELICIOUS and came RAPIDLY. Experience was smooth and 10/10 overall.We ordered Trash Browns and VGN Wachos as starters, and they came shortly after the drinks. Both were absolutely delicious, but especially the Trash Browns - the liquid cheese was INCREDIBLE! The Candy Floss cocktail made our tongues feel sophisticated; there was layers to it! Burgers were scrumptious, but we were quite full after the starters. Hand cut chips are offered instead of fries, and these come with Cajun seasoning.Dedicated vegan spot on the menu, and most of the sides you could make vegan if requested!They were obviously very busy and couldn’t seat all the big groups coming in (so book in advance if in a group), but they catered to as many people as possible!Although they were busy, the staff looked relatively calm and content, which is always a green flag for a hospitality business.It’s an underground place but there was good lighting and the interior had lots of open brick. We sat by an old fireplace which was cool! Seating was well arranged.The waiters were super efficient and helpful (one provided takeaway boxes when we asked and was super friendly about it!)Lots of stairs so I don’t know how wheelchair accessible it would be? Perhaps there’s another entrance?All in all a wonderful experience and would love to return.

Amazing burger, excellent service from team (although manager who seated us didn't seem too happy about it). Also got a shake, can't wait for the Glasgow venue.We were a group of 11 on Saturday 12th Feb.

Tempted by the menu for this place as the photos looked insane! The food did deliver exactly as the pictures looked, but maybe we weren’t hungry enough as both meals seemed excessive! The taste and quality was great but after a while it all felt too greasy. The salad wedge although a simple item was absolutely delicious and needed to cut through the rest! Worth going but make sure you have an appetite

Insane food and great staff.This place is a must visit and I am sure all Fat Hippos are the same. You won’t be disappointed. Portion size is huge, so do feel you need to order loads.It is a very popular establishment, so ensure you book in advance.Top Tip: the Cheese Balls are nothing like you’ve tasted before. A must have

I am so glad I found this place, I Absolutely loved my order (chicken burger with loaded fries). The outdoor seating area is nice during the warm summer days. Service was good and I did not have to book in advance. On the other side I do think it’s quite pricey for Newcastle.
