- Dogtown on a kinda grey snowy day 12-07 The welcoming sign for Dogtown, as seen heading east on Monroe Avenue. Dogtown (a.k.a Dogtown Hots) is a cheap dog-themed joint on Monroe Avenue (Monroe Village) that sells hot dogs, burgers, Junkyard Plates, homemade soups, salads, and sandwiches. They replicate regional hot dog favorites from around the nation and come up with their own overloaded variations. There are over twenty to choose from. Try their German Shepherd, a New York City-style dog with onions and kraut. Or the Boston Terrier, with bacon, baked beans, and special Dogtown chili. The French bread substitute for traditional rolls are very filling. They have many vegan options as well. A vegan special is offered every Thursday, featuring various handmade burgers such as spinach-tofu, red or black bean, and mushroom-walnut. In 2014 Dogtown received an honorable mention from PETA for best vegan hot dogs. Outdoor seating is available on their patio, with additional condiments and utensils stored conveniently outside as well. Awards Voted "Best Hots Restuarant" and "Best Cheap Eats" by City Newspaper's 'Best of Rochester' Awards in 2015.1
