The Bulldog footlongs!

A themed hot dog joint connected to Bob’s Bullpen, The Bulldog offers up a fun atmosphere along with a killer menu for hot dog and “not-dog” lovers alike. Have an office or holiday party planned out? The Bulldog has paired up 7 of their most popular hot dogs (the equivalent of 14 regular hot dogs) for the perfect platter. Cut them up into bite-size pieces for an office party lunch or feed the whole family. The Bulldog also offers a high-quality veggie dog (or “not-dogs”) that are flown in special for The Bulldog. Veggie dogs can be substituted for any dog on the menu.

Aside from hot dogs, The Bulldog offers a full variety of other options on the “Not Dogs” menu such as made to order pizza, nachos, loaded fries, and meatball subs. Check out their Facebook page for daily specials. Dine-in, take out, or call for delivery at 989-356-9558. Every value meal purchase includes a free ½ hour in the arcade, Two Bit Operation.
