Morrie O’Malley’s Hot Dogs

The most classic place to go before and after a white sox game. I’m lucky I live by the U.S. Cellular field because I can just walk over here whenever I want. I always order the classic Chicago dog and sometimes an ice cream. The food here is delicious and so Chicago LOL. ¹⁰⁄₁₀ recommend!

Hot damn, this is a good place for a hotdog. I went early spring there’s already two women having lunch on the patio and a lot of police taking to-​go all of which are good signs. The fact that Morrie O’Malley’s is serving hot dogs is a good sign of spring as they re-​open from their break. I had to comment on the fact that they slice their cucumber and tomato so thin. The hand cut fries are perfect. I was feeling it or something because at the end I felt compelled to get a chocolate vanilla swirl soft serve. Can’t wait to go back.

With Best Kosher out of commission at U.S. Cellular Field for awhile now, Morrie O’Malley’s is the only decent place near Sox park to grab a good Chicago-​style dog. This place is a great, classic, no frills hot dog stand that’s been around for a long time. Bring cash.

Tried to hit this place up while heading out of the city. Not sure how many stars to give. They are closed on Sundays, Unilocal.Get it right.

After all these years of going to Sox games and I had never gone to this place until yesterday. Excellent strip steak sandwich with everything (served on a garlic bread roll with A! sauce, grilled onions and mozzarella). This place is a home run. Way better than eating the mass produced stadium food. And it’s just a 4 block walk (dues west) of US Cellular Field on 35^th street. It’s a no brainer.

The dogs are just like a Chicago dog should be: poppy seed bun, Vienna, tomatoes and pickles bursting out the top. Loved it.

2^nd stop with our hotdog hooping
Poopy seed bun with tomato and pickle. Nice presentation but lack of better flavor

I stepped in a few weeks back for a soft serve ice cream cone. I stood around for a good 3 minutes before all 4 staff behind the counter greeted me after they all saw me walked in. Worst service ever. Will never go back

Very friendly folks here, family owned business and it’s got great seating outdoors. The char burger is yummy and they also have soft serve which is perfect in the summer. Plus it’s about half a mile from the Sox park so it’s a perfect place to come and eat before heading to the game.

Great chili dog. Went here before a game and had a chili dog and a double dog. My 11 year old son ate the same. Great fries too

Fresh dogs and delicious condiments. Ignorant employees who ignore you while you’re standing right in front of them. Service here is in the serious decline. I was a customer here for 24 years. Ugh

Holy cow! Great chili dog, awesome service and the best steak sandwich I have ever had. So good we had to buy a couple more for the kids at home! Sooooo glad we found you and we will be back!!!

This place definitely might be the best traditional hot dog in town. Hidden gem in the southside.

Solid eats, cheap, and great toppings at Morrie O’Malley’s. Not on the top tier for me personally (Devil Dawgs, Hot Doug’s, Flub-a-Dub-Chub’s, Franks N’ Dawgs) but a solid option if you are close by or trying to get away from White Sox traffic after a game.
Spartan space inside but great staff; they were kind enough to stay open a few extra minutes last Thursday night to feed our group of four. Tried the regular dog Chicago-​style and one of the chili-​cheese dogs, two orders of fries, and a chocolate shake. I think we dropped $ 17 or $ 18 for all of it. Tasty, the dog was a little small (had Flub the day before, so really, it’s just that Morrie’s serves a normal-​sized hot dog), fries were perfectly cooked.
If I need chow after a baseball game, I’ll be back!

Its a Bridgeport institution, family owned place. The kids liked their hotdogs a quick after school meal and the staff were really friendly.

Excellent Chicago hot dog here and with fries and a soda for $ 5, this is the perfect place to go before or after a White Sox game.
Service was fast and friendly and there is parking in the back during Sox games for $ 15.
The dog had the traditional toppings of green relish, yellow mustard, diced onions, a pickle spear, and the tomato slices were bigger than what you may find at other spots. To top it off, they throw in a cucumber slice which is the only place I’ve found thus far in the city that does that.
Would certainly make this place a must whenever I’m in the area for a game.

Location is kind of sketchy. I locked the door of my car since it was in kind of hood-​ish neighborhood. I don’t usually eat hot dogs unless I’m in Chicago or New York. I ordered polish for me and regular hotdog for my son. It was a great cheap eats. ;)

It finally happened: I got suckered into going somewhere just because it was on Chicago’s Best. Well, not really. We were headed to a Sox game and knew we’d want to eat. As much as I don’t mind ballpark food, I’m a bit of a priss when it comes to eating while standing or on my lap, squished next to people. Morrie OMalley’s is definitely a good spot for ballpark/​fast food if you’re heading to a game.
The Steak Sandwich was YUM — served on garlic bread with mozzarella cheese and A1 sauce (hold the grilled onions), what’s not to like? I also had the Dreamsicle shake, which is to die for. It’s straw-​collapsing thick, but melted nicely in the humidity that day.
The cheese fries were standard. My husband liked his hot dog and Polish sausage, he would’ve given Morrie OMalleys three stars, but I thought my meal was more deserving of four. All of our food, drinks, and fries added up to only $ 27, a steal compared to ballpark prices!
There are several tables outside, where we ate as we watched the storm start to roll in before heading to the game. There are also a few stools and a counter inside, but it was super hot inside the tiny restaurant, with only a few windows open for ventilation.
They also score extra points with me for having a free parking lot. I think it’s $ 15 if you want to park here for the Sox game.
Good to know: CASH ONLY! But there is an ATM inside.

Visiting this place makes me feel like a real Chicagoan. Right near Cellular field, I found this place through Unilocal reviews.
I highly recommend trying this place. The Chicago Dog is my favorite type of hot dog and this place does it just right.
Light, flavorful and bursting with flavor!

Love this place! Seriously good, cheap (compared to inside the park) eats. This is a definite stop before any Sox game. They’re 100 times better than anything in the Cell.
The hot dogs cannot be beat. This is how a Chicago dog should be made, so listen up all you competitors. I usually order two and scarf them down.
This use to be the place to eat before the game, now I’m traveling on non-​Sox days just to grab a bite.
Service is great and friendly. Yes it’s still cash only. And the best part of this place: not a hint of Cubbie crap anywhere. Who doesn’t love the old bleacher seats from Comiskey? Go Sox!
