“ Had the new York damn this thing was epic. So many great tastes and they all mix so well. The red radishes were so good and this is coming from someone that doesn't care for them they were so good. ”
“ Had the Chicago hot dog, Wienerpeg hot dog, and the smoked chicken poutine. The Chicago dog was excellent. Had them before in the states and it is just as good. The Wienerpeg dog was not for me. I didn’t enjoy it, but that is just me. The smoked chicken poutine was great. It was delicious. ”
“ Five stars, just for the name alone, haha! Saw the reviews that the dogs didn't hold up, but the pictures of the poutine had sold me, and they weren't wrong. The Pulled Pork Poutine was awesome. No shortage of pork, or gravy, or cheese. Enough to feed two normal sized people. To be honest, maybe they should just sell poutine and scrap the dogs.. but then the name wouldn't make sense. ”
“ Get the home brewed root beer! The root beer alone will keep me coming back time and time again. The hot dog themselves were nothing special at all. But where the hotdogs were missing something special the toppings absolutely knocked it out of the park. It needs to be said how great of a job the staff did. ”
“ This was the first stop I made after arriving in Winnipeg and I am so delighted to have had this welcome to the city. My family takes poutine very seriously (who doesn’t?) and I had seen Wienerpeg show up on a few Winnipeg poutine Reddit threads. We all picked the Wienerpeg special, and the fresh dill cheese curd combo was perfection. We added on the classic poutine and it was the right choice. Squeaky curds, flavorful gravy, delicious fries. All this paired with the vibrant atmosphere of the market made for a great night. I am certain we will end up back here throughout our visit this week. ”
“ The euro dog taste isn’t my favourite but that’s no reason to reduce the stars rating. I’m sure it’s a great flavour to someone else. The all beef was very delicious would order again. Was going to give 4 stars until I read the owners reply throwing shade and telling the reviewer to stick with eating fast food take out. Back up to 5 stars! Bravo Weinerpeg owners. Bravo! ”
“ New York hotdog was awesome. The mustard and sauerkraut combo was so intense it cleared my sinuses in the best way possible. Corn dogs are excellent the batter to corn dog ratio is perfectly balanced. Great option at the forks whether you are picky and like a classic dog or if you like to spice it up ( seriously, that New York dog has a kick!) you will enjoy this option. ”
“ Bison Weiner!? Everything about this spot is a bit of heaven, the kind of fast, affordable food you’d expect at a market like this. Unique, delicious, even their pickles were memorable. I had the Vanilla Cream Soda - blast from the past (little like Hairy Putter’s butter beer?) ”
