Born and raised here and never been until now. What a great experience. If you haven't gone, go. Great people doing Detroit proud since 1914. We were even shown a trick at the counter. And located the bathroom in the basement down a narrow stairwell. That they lovingly call the dungeon.
The Lafayette special is well worth it. The buns are soft, the dogs just pops when you bite it, and then the chili, onion, mustard are just classic mixes on all coney dogs. Even though it doesn’t look like the best atmosphere to dine in. But it was full of suit and ties people during the early afternoon and reminds me of Wall Street. It’s a sign that you know it’s returned guest and the best place to grab everyday food.
Very Very Old school, not exactly sparkling clean looking, could use updating. I actually love the flavor of the dogs very much. Casing was a little tough but my grandson did a Coney challenge and we both agreed the flavor of Lafayette dogs was better but we wished the casing wasn't so tough.Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: NoTakeout: Yes
I ordered the Lafayette Special with chilli Cheese Fries and let me tell you this and my wife got the Coney and fries...I've waited years to come back to Detroit specifically to come here. It was EXACTLY how I imagined. The snap of the dog, the deliciousness of the chili with the onions and mustard. The hot crispy fries smothered in cheese, chilli and onions.... PERFECT! My son was recently born in Detroit and I can't wait til he's old enough to experience what we experienced.
It was ok. Came because I read a write up about this place in a travel guide. Staff seemed abrasive. Ordering and paying was chaos as we weren't sure who or where to do either. Hot Dog itself was very mediocre. Skin was chewy and not a lot of flavor. Chili was good. Fries were good. Prices were good. But everything else failed to impress.
This was my first coney experience in Detroit where the Coney Dog was birthed. This place truly feels like it’s been operating the same way it did since it was first opened decades ago. I was surprised by the simple menu and low prices. If you want the authentic coney experience, go here. Nothing special about the buns but, biting through the chili and mustard atop as you feel the snap of the casing as your teeth penetrate through the meat is a hot dog experience like no other. Be careful though, your stomach may not be thanking you later if you have one too many
The Lafayette Coney Island is a must-visit destination in Detroit. Upon entering, you'll feel as though you've stepped back in time, with its vintage subway tile walls, worn Formica countertops, and old men in white uniforms shouting out orders. The coney dogs here are top-notch, and you'll leave feeling satisfied both in terms of your heart and stomach. The atmosphere at this classic establishment is truly one-of-a-kind, and it's a must-try for anyone visiting downtown Detroit. Don't miss out on the opportunity to enjoy a delicious coney with all the toppings. You won't be disappointed!
I got the Lafayette special and it was very good. The staff are friendly and the food is quick. They are definitely a local gem. Make sure to try a donut while you’re here!
My husband and I wanted to get some real Detroit Coneys and I'm so glad we went here! I don't think I've gotten fresh food faster in my life and the hotdogs were VERY good. I actually forgot to take a picture before we dug in. I would highly recommend this place!Food: 5/5
Iconic Detrot Coney Island. Tiny yet powerful atmosphere. Popular at lunch or when the bars close. If you can’t decide between the coney or loose burger, order the Lafayette Special. You CAN have everything!
