The Dog Pound - Cave City

Great little hot dog is in an old gas station. The indoor kitchen is small, but they have cleverly built large outdoor tables over the old pump islands. The Jumbo dogs are jumbo and stacked with blows. There is a good selection of dogs along with some busts and sausages. Your chili is made at home and delicious. The Jumbo dogs are a challenge to eat without using a knife and fork. Luckily, they are provided. Waiting staff is friendly, the food is delicious, and the prices are very reasonable. Signage is missing something from the road, but it is worth looking for this place!

How many people we stopped after a Mammoth Cave Tour and stopped for a bite. So glad we did. We have a Chicago Dog, Yorkie Burp and a Big Jack Attack. I love a good hot dog and would evaluate this place one of the best. Place was clean, crew was friendly, and we really appreciate it. Plus has to eat outside in the shade. Would stop without hesitation again, wish it would be closer to me.

A hidden gem, to be sure! If you find yourself in the Mammoth Cave area, skip the tourist trap bar food and head here. It's a no-frills little shack, but isn't that where you find the best food? There's a hot dog on the menu for everyone.

The MacRussell is hands down the best hotdog I’ve ever had. I’ve been craving it since the first time I had it. Coming from Elizabethtown, it’s definitely worth the drive to try anything that comes out of their kitchen.

Don't miss the Dog Pound, it's one you won't mind finding yourself in. If you just want a little something have one dog, or if you're hungry, give two or three different types a try! The potato salad is the BEST this reviewer has had to date, the only neg is the size, you'll want more! The chili cheese dog is yummy, add a little mustard and you'll be in Heaven, the Chicago dog is pretty yummy, too. The service is happy and you'll leave with a smile! Tell Big Jack I sent you, you won't get a discount (you won't need one, the prices are perfect) but you'll get a laugh! Enjoy and sign a spot before you leave!
