Wieners of Waterton“Wieners of Waterton is ahead, a casual counter-service stop for hot dogs and loaded fries. My pick is the Local Smokie, a handmade smoked sausage made just outside town, with your choice of toppings.”

Guide
The draw is the Liege-style waffle, with sweet and savory options. Coffee and espresso drinks have also been part of the cafe’s offering. The current menu could not be confirmed, so treat those as the style of the place rather than a promise of a particular topping or special.
There are only a few seats indoors, with outdoor tables for extra seating, so it works better for a casual stop or small group than a large indoor meal. Pickup has also been listed as an option. It is at 301 Wind Flower Ave; another food business shares the street address, so check the storefront rather than assuming the listings refer to one place.
