Barboursville HDJ Review - Dog Haus Biergarten
Editor's note: This is Wimpy's second review this week. Not bad for a beginning Weenie Wonk! Keep it up, Wimpy!

Opening in December 2021, Dog Haus brought its 50th location, and its first one in West Virginia, to Barboursville in Cabell County.
They currently have restaurants in 10 states, primarily in Texas.
They’ve had success too, as Entrepreneur Magazine chose Dog Haus No. 2 on its Top Food Franchises: Hot Dogs list for 2021, up from No. 4 in 2020.

With a variety of other foods, one might be tempted to order chicken sandwiches or burgers, but the company calls itself a Dog Haus, right?
And perhaps in an effort to ingratiate itself to its new fan base and customers, they immediately put a “Almost Heaven” hot dog on the menu, with chili, slaw, mustard and onions when coming to West Virginia.
Someone did their homework.
Dog Haus’ bun is unique for hot dogs found in our state.

For starters, it’s three Kings Hawaiian Rolls that have not yet been pulled apart. So it makes a big hot dog bun. It’s toasted only along the top, remaining soft and fresh otherwise. Still, it merits a slight point deduction for a non-steamed bun.
Grab a lot of napkins, because they don’t skimp on the amount of toppings.
The chili/sauce is a slight bit spicy but not at all overpowering while the slaw is creamy and finely shredded.
They pair together nicely.
The yellow mustard is served on top of the slaw, along with finely shredded onions. This Weenie Wonk prefers mustard applied first, but it still works.
The star of Dog Haus’ Almost Heaven is the weenie, dense and packed with flavor. And pretty good size, filling the remarkable bun size appropriately.
Proud of the quality of its product, Dog Haus displays a framed motto on its wall:
“Our Haus dogs are made from beef that is raised without hormones and antibiotics. Our proprietary recipe includes a unique spice blend of brown sugar, bay leaves, garlic, salt, and black pepper.”
One can certainly discern Dog Haus’ difference in the quality of the weenie. It’s stellar.
The Almost Heaven Dogs earns 4 Weenies
For those who enjoy a “cold one” with their hot dogs, there’s plenty of options at this location, a Biergarten serving craft beers and cocktails. There’s ample indoor seating and an inviting outdoor patio as well.
Kids meals are offered, so bring the little ones if you wish. There’s also soft serve ice cream, shakes and floats if you still have room for dessert.
Dog Haus is open:
10A-10P Monday through Thursday, 9A-10P Friday & Saturday,
and Sunday 9A-9P.

They also allow the four legged kind of dog(s) (possible even the three-legged) in their outdoor area and provide your dog with a dog haus neck-erchief on request.
