Snag Stand

This place is conveniently located at the corner of la Trobe and swanston street. Right infront of Melbourne central station. This place is perfect on a summers day when you are in the mood for some snags. Their snags range from normal to hot to thick in size. Their staff are clean, friendly and quick.

I was so hungry when I came here I almost forgot to take a photo of my hotdog before I started eating it.

The first time I ordered the classic American hot dog, with chips and it was just perfect and delicious couldnt ask for a better hot dog. It was juicy, tasty, just the perfect amount of sauce. I also had some onion rings, they were well fried, crunchy and seasoned. On the price side, its a bit on the pricey side for a hot dog/chips but as I had enjoyed it was well worth it. However, on my second time round, I had the Wagyu beef sausage with horseradish mayo, onions and beetroot. I couldn't even taste the sausage, there was so much mayo, too salty, greasy and fatty. Well not willing to shut them down as yet, may have easily just been ...read more
