A hot dog shop tucked inside a bar on 16th Street, Der Wurst builds every preservative-free sausage on pretzel buns from a local bakery and links from Schreiner's Fine Sausages down the road. The menu leans into German biergarten energy, loaded dogs pulling from flavors across cultures, with names that will make your grandparents set down their reading glasses. Phoenix New Times named it the city's top spot for hot dogs in 2025.
