Fort Wayne's Famous Coney Island 131 West Main Street, Fort Wayne, IN 46802

"Best coney dogs ever! Really enjoyed the ice cold Coca Cola in a glass bottle as well. It was a treat!"

"Tried this place for the first time today, so good! They put the perfect amount of onions and sauce. Very packed but definitely worth the wait! I'd recommend!!"

"It's a place I've gone to off & on for years. Parking is always "entertaining" like anywhere downtown but on this Black Friday I was actually able to find a space behind the store. Unfortunately, and unlike in years past, the rear entrance is now only an exit, you have to walk around. And the line and the signs are likely the reason why. Can't trust some people to wait their turn, I guess. Anywho, once inside & out of the 28° F breeze, the place is steamy warm and definitely a generational throwback. It has been here since before WW I. That's why we come here. A counter so long it has a break in the middle for staff to pass through. Just watching the staff maneuver should count as a floor show. It's chaotic and hectic and intriguing and it works. Tables along the wall. Maximum body count so be nice and make a new friend. The reason people are here, the Coney dogs. Standard is yellow mustard, onions & chili. If you want it different, speak up. The chili is really a meat and seasonings soup here and I would never eat a bowl myself but on a dog? Required. Different than thick, Detroit style chili but damned tasty. Chips are in a bag, Pepsi products from the fountain, Faygo pop in a can. And I love that they added a gift shop next door."

"What a cool little place! I was visiting Fort Wayne for business and was told by my client to come and try this place out. It did not disappoint for what it was and they only do a handful of things but they do it well. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The Coney dogs were tasty and so budget friendly! I ended up getting two of them and a hamburger. The hamburger was also very good. I love how the place feels like a time capsule. It definitely looks like it hasn’t changed in 70 years and that’s a good thing. It’s like you’re sitting in history. They treated us like we were regulars. Highly recommend this place!"
