A Westfort diner that has barely changed, and that's the point.
Generations of Thunder Bay regulars have grown up on this Coney dog — and it’s the same today.
Coney Island Westfort is the kind of place people describe as a staple and an institution. Regulars who’ve moved away keep it as a definite stop when they’re back in town, and they bring their kids.
The appeal is consistency and speed: the same Coney dog, the same sauce, served almost before you’ve sat down. Guests who haven’t been there in decades say the only thing that changed was the staff and the shape of the soda cans.
It’s a modest Westfort storefront on Frederica Street, with a counter for quick service and customers who’ve been coming for years. For a lot of Thunder Bay, it’s the definition of comfort food.
