About Thunderdog

A diner-style burger and hot dog joint on Byres Road with a fun, high-energy look that older kids tend to love, and enough practical bits to make it workable with little ones — high chairs, a kids' menu, buggy access and a few outdoor tables. Portions are generous and value is fair, and one family noted every dish arrived together, which spares you the usual staggered-plates meltdown. Loaded tater tots, the mozzarella bites and the deep-fried pickles get the loudest praise, along with the salt 'n' chilli chicken dog; there are vegan options and decent gluten-free choices too. Staff come across as warm and attentive. It's not flawless — a few people found the burnt ends or fried chicken dry — but the toilets are clean and it's an easy, unfussy feed.
