Cyber-Dogs Internet Cafe

Very sad to see this place go. I used to come here when I would get into Seattle super late from my flight. I am also vegetarian, so this place was amazing to me: stayed open late AND vegetarian. Love it!
The owner was very kind to us whenever we stopped in. She always mentioned how she worked a lot of hours to keep the place running. I’m sorry to see it go.
Future restaurant entrepreneurs in the Seattle area: PLEASE cater to vegetarian insomniacs!

Closed. Out of business, sadly. They were a good, affordable vegetarian option in downtown Seattle.

I’ve been vegetarian most of my life and vegan hotdogs have never been that great to me. Cyber-​Dogs on the other hand has something going on. Definitely not your traditional ballpark hotdog. These are really unique, ethnic Seattle vegan hotdogs that beat the real thing any day.
The atmosphere is somehow very relaxing, especially for a tight space. Not much square footage but several full sized computers and free WiFi to use while you eat. There’s even a couch, which I once fell asleep on after my dinner and the staff didn’t even care!

Everything I want from a hot dog place except meat. It’s a fun, kitschy little place with a friendly welcoming staff. There wasn’t a ton of seating inside, but it was a lovely day and their patio area provided a comfortable space to people watch.
The price was a bit steeper than I’d like to pay for a dog ($ 5 and change), but being paired with a vegan requires some sacrifices (mostly the wallet variety). Overall, I’d be happy to give them my business again, but it wouldn’t be a daily affair.

If you like crap, you’ll love Cyber Dogs! Microwaved… I’ll call it Corn Dog Jerky-​dry, tough, rubbery. They have one microwave for nachos, one (maybe two) tiny toaster ovens to heat up sub par hot dogs. I got a corn dog, chips and a coke for $ 7. I never got a bag of chips. I stood in line for 3 minutes waiting for service. I got an unmixed Italian soda for $ 3.50.
And the music has been used by the army when trying to drive South American dictators from their palaces.
Oh, and the décor are shite.
I was about to insult the workers, but there’s no point. I doubt they care what customers think. I’m sure they’re nice people… just seem overwhelmed easily.

This place is disgusting. Crowded, diry, and small. My «Brat» was a dried out veggie dog that come out from somewhere under the register. This place should be shut down for filth.

This place is amazing! So was the counter guy his name was oliver! Amazing food and beer selection as well! Also oliver was so patient dealing with me and my drunken friends. If you are reading this I’m sorry and you were awesome! Thanks for the great service!

Overpriced microwaved veggie dogs, served in a fun atmosphere.

I stopped in here to grab a quick bite between lectures at the convention center. I have a love of hotdogs and after a few days of rich seafood I figured a good hotdog was the way to go for lunch. Unfortunately what I got was NOT a good hotdog. I ordered the red hot bayou which was described as a spicy dog with red beans and rice, garlic celery and corn topped with green onions. Well it came out that the dog was chopped up and mixed with the «toppings». It was a sludge of spicy rice that tasted like it was from a box and been in the slow cooker for three days.
I could go on, but the bottom line is that the food here is awful. Please don’t waste your time or money. On a side note, they do have beer there. The Rainer that I ordered was cold!!!

Hot dogs hot dogs HOT DOGS! I frequent this place for a quirky, unpretentious spot that reminds me of being in art school. Also, the hot dogs. Yes, vegetarians eat hot dogs — but they aren’t made out of meat. The cheese is a sort of cheese substitute. The bacon is a strip of health… which is a crime against bacon… but hey, at least the vegetarians got it right when it came down to the right foods to copy. (The avocados are real.) Anyhoo, the faux hotdogs are made out of some delicious meat stuff that 1. doesn’t fill you with guilt for eating something that will eventually try to kill you and 2. tastes pretty damn good (and also tastes close-​ish to meat in flavor and texture). The owner isn’t a vegetarian (go figure) and that’s the secret weapon of the place: Cyber Dogs is able to get so close to tasting like meat without a ritualistic animal slaughter, it’s uncanny.
Since «cyber» is in the name of the place, I guess it’s time to talk about the cyberness. The ambiance of the place is very found-​art and underground with its low lighting and floor to ceiling memorabilia. There are a few computers around the place, but you might be afraid to use them considering their age. They exist more for sentimental and namesake value than usefulness and you’d do better to talk to some of the people behind the counter for entertainment before trying to surf the internet. The people are pretty cool and quirky, just like the café in which they sit.
Anyhoo, great dogs! My one complaint might be that the bread is always a little dry. But that’s nothing a little vegetarian chili won’t cure :)

Terrible food. Good service. The girl working there was great, very friendly and fun. That’s what earned the one star. First off, your food is cooked in a MICROWAVE, are you kidding me? I had the spudnik, it was a pile of flavor less mush. The ingredients are, generic qfc white bun, a very very cheap store bought veggie dog, potatoes, mushrooms and cucumber all nuked in a microwave for extra mushy texture. I’ve had vegetarian food before, it doesn’t have to be this bad. Possibly the worse part of it all was the owner’s political views posted on the wall, absolutely no need for that. I came back to the convention and told people where I ate, and everybody said «oh man, we should have told you it was bad»

I am SO happy I found this place. Nice, relaxed, friendly customer service. Delicious, totally vegan-​friendly food at completely reasonable prices. And a totally chill atmosphere surrounded by memorabilia from the past. Also, super fast wifi. :-)

Quand on dit à quelqu’un qu’on va au «Cyber-​dogs», la question est toujours du genre «mais qu’est ce que c’est que ça?» Les non anglophones pensent à un espèce de chien bionique… Mais non, en fait c’est juste un cyber café qui propose des hot-​dogs! Et il sont plutôt bons et copieux je dois dire (jugez vous même sur la photo).
L’enseigne est petite, mais il y a quand même quelques places assises. Je n’ai testé que la petite restauration en profitant du wifi (bien pratique pour éviter les hors forfaits !), le hotdog était vraiment bien réussi, avec une bonne cuisson et de la bonne viande!
La déco est kitchissime, surchargée mais je trouve que ça a son charme. Concernant le personnel, c’était cordial mais sans plus.
Je conseille donc l’adresse car les hotdogs sont carrément bons, à un prix correct pour la zone concernée.

Yuuuuuuuummmmm!
We got carried away and ordered nachos and then each a dog.
WOW that is not suggested :) huge portions :)
I ordered the California dog and I swear it had a whole avocado on it. Now, I love avocado but between the nacho overload and taking a bite of hubby’s chili dog (had avocado also)…waaaaaaaaay too much avocado.
The dogs were tofurky dogs, I believe, and I’m not a big fan of that brand. Double not being a fan of a hot dog being boiled… it’s just tooooo mushy. They are jumbo size also, so basically I picked out half the dog and dug into the huge portion of toppings.
I would def come back to this super fun quirky place but I would have to skip the dog but def order the nachos again!!! The chili is AWESOME!
Huge portions for your money, great music and super nice owners. Yay! I’m a fan!

Small establishment with cool décor; basically a lot of trash and memorabilia from someone’s dumpster tacked to the walls and hung from the ceiling.
That said, the food is terrible. We got Coney Islands and the chili came cold and the dogs inedible. We left after taking 2 bites. Best part? The Mexican sodas.

What a unique and quirky place! I only found Cyber-​Dogs because of Unilocal and liked it so much I went twice while there for a work conference. The interior is visual stimulus overload, but it makes the experience that much more entertaining. While I was there the music on the radio went from opera arias to 60’s rock.
So the food… I don’t remember the names of the two dogs I had, but remember that they were excellent and very satisfying. The owner Tatiana was very friendly and talkative, I would definitely return to at least dip my head in to make sure this place is as weird and unique as I remember it.

I do not normally give one star reviews, but this place is definitely something I will go out of my way to avoid.
We came in after PAX and my friends insisted we come here instead of Japonessa happy hour. I was very wary since I do not believe in vegetarian/​vegan diets, but whatever. I was tempted to get the Red Hot Bayou Dog… but a friend ahead of me ordered it and saw what it looked like, and changed my mind to the Coney Dog (or something named along those lines). I also got a beer. My bill came out to $ 19.69. I was surprised at how much it cost, and was hoping that the positive things I heard about this place were true.
Some country music came on, and the girl who cooks the dogs scoffed and made snooty remarks about how it was garbage. I don’t personally like country music either, but she already presented herself as extremely pretentious. The lady behind the counter (I believe she is the owner) kept yelling to add them on Facebook and to listen to her political messages. I found this strange.
The Coney Dog is like a chili dog, that requires heating in a conventional oven to melt the cheese. Now that I think about it, I find it kind of strange. It also has corn in it. Multiple customers who had ordered after me, received their food before I had to go back to the counter to find my food sitting in the conventional oven, which was turned off from the timer. They had forgotten about my food, but at least it was sitting in a warm place.
The presentation did not look appealing, but it’s a chili dog, I expect it to look messy. However I definitely had to eat it with a utensil and not my hands. Eventually I found the hot dog buried somewhere in this bean, corn and bready mess. The hot dog was cold. I am not picky with food, so I did not mind this. But it definitely did not taste good, and it definitely did not taste like a $ 9.00 hot dog. I think I’d rather eat an uncooked Bar-​S hot dog than this garbage. I told my friends and we just minded our own business.
Soon we started to hear a female customer at the counter start to raise her voice. She wanted her money back because she received a cold hot dog. The owner started to yell back and antagonize her and tell her that it was warm because she cooked it. The customer had not even eaten the hot dog. The owner refused to give her back her money and threatened to call the police. This threat was within thirty seconds of the confrontation. After the girl left without her money, the cooking girl and the owner began to trash talk about her to the rest of the customers in the restaurant. It reminded me of the Amy’s Baking Company episode of Kitchen Nightmares.
Unfortunately I should have mentioned my cold hot dog to give them some feedback to help them out. But the way they handled themselves in a situation like that made me not care about their improvement.
I would say to stay away from this place, even if you are coming out of the convention center from a long day of convention events, please do yourself a favor and avoid this place like the plague. The plague probably taste much better than this. They also do not advertise that it is vegetarian until you get inside. I feel it is somewhat deceptive. Also the place is really cramped. I can’t imagine why anyone would want to use the internet here except if you’re some douchey hipster that is trying to be different and cool. My friend couldn’t connect to the wifi.
Happy hour sushi probably would have cost less and tasted much better… FML.

As a vegetarian in the south I often have only one or two options when selecting from a menu but at this place I could select from anything on the menu. All the menu items sounded really good and showed some creativity instead of just a veggie dog on a bun. I really appreciate different variations on simple dishes like they’ve done at this place.
I opted for the California that had avocado, salsa, cheese, and veggie bacon on top of the dog. It was super delicious. My traveling companion opted for the Mama Tatiana that had a dog baked in parmesean cheese, basil, artichoke hearts, tomatoes, and garlic. That was really tasty too.
The café is small but has lots of fun stuff on the wall to look at while dining and also a big front window and outdoor eating area in case you’d rather people watch. I definitely would go back here if I lived in Seattle.

This is a really rad place on the outskirts of downtown. Clearly, they cater a lot to the M-​F crowd. But what’s cool is that the food doesn’t taste like one of those places. The dogs are delicious and cheap. Perfect, quick food for lunch if you’re at work or maybe doing some shopping.
And of course, amazing that it’s all vegetarian (or vegan!)

I came to Cyber-​Dogs with my girl, not knowing that their entire menu was vegan. Fortunately, my date doesn’t eat meat, so she was happily surprised. I, on the other hand, NEED MEAT, so I left the ordering to her.
I probably wouldn’t have been much help at ordering anyway, because I was too entranced by the odd décor. This place is weird, but in a good way. Just ignore the strange mutants on the computers.
I don’t remember what she ordered, but it doesn’t matter. The hot dog was delicious, albeit, slightly different… but in a good way.
Did I mention that Cyber-​Dogs also has beer?
Great dogs, beer, and a nice little place to share memories. You can’t ask for anything more than what Cyber-​Dogs has to offer.
Except for meat. Yeah. That would have been nice.

Definitely in the Top 10 vegan eats of the Northwest for experience ratings. We went here a few weeks ago late at night after seeing Frankenweenie nearby. The location was great for a late night vegan eat! I got one type of dog (Ipanema) while my friends got another type (Tatiana). Mine was vegan and theirs were vegetarian. The place is definitely a must-​do experience. The woman who owns the place is a real treat in herself. Hopefully you’ll get to go there when they are not too busy so you can talk to her. She’s super friendly and has lots of interesting advice to give. Also make sure to read her family’s story on the wall –framed in the Newspaper clipping.
I wouldn’t say it’s the best veggie dog I’ve ever had, but it was cool. There’s so much food in the dog platter. Mine had rice which made the bun unnecessary so I would advise skipping the bun. There are so many different types to choose from. Most are vegan or could easily be made vegan by subbing out the cheese. One even comes with a drink (Tatiana dog)! Also make sure to get hot sauce with your order. She also has vegan desserts and soups.
The décor is pretty amazing to check out as well — lots of old movie posters, quotes, things hanging from the ceiling, etc.
