Weenie Beenie

Old school menu and the 10 commandments posted outside; you can tell this place is going to be great just from the looks of it. Another sign it’s great is their Bologna, egg, and cheese sandwich; where else can you get that? It’s so good. Hash browns are good. Do yourself a favor and get a sandwich from the weenie beenie.

Even though I grew up in the DMV, I hadn't spent much time in NoVA. After living here for a while, I was introduced to Weenie Beenie by my coworkers. I love that fact that it has a history of serving the area since 1954, and I love that you can get a half-smoke on a breakfast sandwich. There's enough parking spaces, but I wouldn't say there is much room to sit and eat around the spot if people are already eating there. Because of the great prices and the portion size, I'll give them 4 stars. I took off one star because I ordered a chicken salad sandwich for lunch and it appeared to be a chicken that would be used in a cheesesteak covered in mayo without all the usual ingredients you'd find in a chicken salad. I may have figured this out if they had pictures displaying their food, but I'm not sure there's enough space for that on the storefront. Other than that, it's a great and classic spot that's worth a visit if you want to get a fully topped half-smoke. Edit: They do have a few photos of menu items on their website, but they could use an update since the resolution is low.

Mediocre at best, I’ll have to give them a 3 star rating, it’s not terrible by any means but it’s just basic…simple. This place has been here since 1954, “serving great food since 1954” is on the sign and that’s what I was expecting. I thought this was going to be a deliciously greasy and tasty joint but again simple. This is a bacon egg and cheese Sammy… you can’t tell because it’s not sliding out the sides how I expected to be. I got a cheeseburger too, basic. I’ll try again and hope for a better experience.

I had a half smoke from Weenie Beenie and I was mostly happy with it. It was cooked perfectly, and the skin cracked when I bit into it...a tell tale sign of quality. Personally I would've liked a spicier flavor but it was tasty regardless, and a great deal as well. If you're looking for a quick bite this is a good place for you.
