July 23rd is National Hot Dog Day and there is no place better on Earth to celebrate than Buffalo, NY. We have many places to enjoy a charcoal grilled hot dog, Ted's is just the best of the best. A Western New York tradition since 1927, my memories of my childhood are filled with Friday night visits to Ted's Sheridan Drive location for a hot dog and fries. Ted's is the first place family who have moved out of the area want to go when they return for a visit. Literally, right off the airplane, they want to go to Ted's.

Simply the best hot dogs on Earth, they serve a charcoal grilled, special-recipe-by-Sahlens hot dog. You can get regular size or a foot long (always opt for the foot long). There is an array of condiments from which to choose, but don't let any hot dog leave the counter without Ted's signature hot sauce. Round out your order with an Aunt Rosie's Loganberry or a milkshake. And don't forget the fries and rings. Need to glance at the menu before you go? Check out Ted's menu online. Ted's has 6 locations in Western NY and one location in Tempe, AZ.
