The dogs are killer, so are the fries. Today (the second last day of the season) they ran out of hot dogs. We had to spring for a burger. Believe it or not, the burgers are the best thing they have here. Do not skip on it, these things are made with love.

Stopped by to have lunch, and the poutine we had was huge same for the burgers we ordered; they were very generous with the bacon, and their funnel cakes weren't soaked in oil. Overall, from the friendly servers to the cute drawings on the container, their generosity made the stop by a very memorable day!

Hidden GEM - Do NOT drive by this place!!!! Hunter’s food truck is a rare find in the food industry these days. When I ordered, I was torn. Having authentic Nathan’s Hot Dogs are hard to find, but the burgers looked amazing, so I wasn’t sure what to do. I asked what they recommended, and they suggested a burger that would emphasize and highlight their product, not hide it. So many places sell the toppings, but the burger should be the star. Well, the burger was maybe the best I’ve had north of the border, and the fries were seasoned and cooked perfectly. Seriously great food and service. Well done, Hunter’s. Will definitely be back and bringing some friends and family with me.

This place is amazing! Trust me, try their chicken burger with the homemade spicy mayo and it's better than Chick-fil-A . . Their friendliness, mouthwatering food, the ambience and overall the wholesome experience melted my heart. Will definitely visit again.

I am super impressed with the food at Hunter's. My wife and I have eaten here a few times and everything we have tried has been amazing and delicious! We've tried the smash burgers, the Friday fish and chips, and I had a heaven dog (added dill sauce, can't say enough good things about their dill sauce),and we also had the funel cake fries, which is something I had never heard of, and was super impressed with how good they were! I can't wait to try more from Hunter's!!!

Absolutely amazing food!! I had the handmade breaded pogo and regular poutine and both of them were great! My friend has the pulled pork poutine. The pogo breading was crispy, the poutine gravy and fries were fresh and delicious (also too much for me to finish— but was glad to have some to take home). The funnel cake fries are a must try— perfect way to end an outing. 😊 Will 100% be going back again this summer and will be stopping by whenever I’m heading north!

Fantastic food truck!!! Just tried Hunter's Dawg House, one of the best food trucks I've been to in years. It starts with friendly service, plenty of parking and a fun menu. Their main item is a variety of (Nathan's) footlong hot dogs to choose from, but they also have smash burgers, various poutine options and great fresh cut fries. We tried a regular footlong, along with another footlong called the 'Elvis'. The Elvis is a creative hot dog that includes peanut butter, jam, Fruity Pebbles and bacon. All the items we ordered looked amazing in terms of presentation, carefully placed in a cardboard tray for easy takeaway. Definitely going back to try their smash burgers and butter chicken poutine! Highly recommended!

WE GOT THEIR THANKSGIVING TURKEY POUTINE!!! IT WAS INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS, we got our fries crispy, and the amount of cheese, turkey, dressing, gravy and cranberry sauce with the fries was perfectly balanced. We will be back before they close to have this again, it was really a great combo!!! Kid-friendliness: very friendly staff, picnic area, clean outhouse, plenty of waste and recycling

We returned one week after our first visit as we couldnt stop thinking about their delightful Newfie fries. Even though it was only our second visit, we were greeted as if we were the regulars we are quickly becoming! Their footlong dogs and smash burgers are also outstanding. Definitely not your average food truck!

Decided to go for a bike ride up to Hunter s. We ordered one of their food long hot dogs for lunch and their special included a small fries. There is nothing small about their servings. The food was delicious but make sure you get lots of napkins. Bike ride back was slower as we were so full.

Google hours were completely wrong. After a Google search and reading the reviews thought Id check this place out while passing through the area. What a waste of time to find out I altered my route for a closed restaurant with nothing else around. Definetly not a welcoming experience, wouldnt go out of my way again as theres no guarantees of hours of operation. Very disappointing.

Delicious food at Hunters Dawg House. We have been for 2 meals under the new ownership & enjoyed both times. Our kids love the grassy eat-in area out back & the atmosphere is very welcoming for families.

Ordered a smash burger from here. I would expect a smash burger but what I got was not a smash burger. It was clearly just a standard burger patty formed with low quality meat, dry and lacked seasoning. If I am ordering smash burger I expect the patty to be smashed and their to be a maillard reaction on the outside to create that rich browned crust.

Please if you have a chance do yourself a favour before they close up for season grab a thanksgiving poutine 10/5 rating!!!! If you haven t had the chance to go on Fish Friday, your missing out. We took the family for a fish last night and Linda did not disappoint. Our dinner was 10/10. Don t pass up a fish Friday this summer.

Ive never reviewed a place but here goes. The fries were good, seasoning salt is a good touch and there was lots. The footlong I got was the classic, sub par to say the least. Reminded me of the cheap Schneider garlic dogs. Lots of toppings. I personally wouldnt recommend anything but the fries. I may add Im in the bathroom writing this not even 10 mins after. Sorry for the image but its truth. Customer service was definitely great but those dogs not a fan. Strange Ive heard good things, maybe caught them on a bad night.

★★★★★
December 22, 2022

Awesome place! Customer service was impeccable. I would totally recommend the Gar-Par Fries! The footlong dogs taste amazing! The seasoning they use just add s a special something to the fries!! A must stop on your way to the cottage!

Finally, gourmet hot dogs availible in the Kawartha Lakes. Got Haileys Comet and the kids poutine for $15 and it was an excellent. Hot dog is hilariously big and they are generous with the toppings. I was stuffed by the end of the Comet and still had the poutine to tackle! The seasoning on these fries is silly, its Cajun seasoning but way better. Buns are fresh, staff are friendly. Picnics tables availible. I asked them to move the food truck to my street but didnt have any luck. Which means Ill definitely be making a return trip!
