Fear was struck in the hearts of cheese fry-lovers all over the city when word surfaced yesterday that Dallas institution Snuffer's has filed for bankruptcy. The family-owned chain is seeking a buyer and although it's business as usual at the restaurants for now, it's never a bad idea to have a back-up plan. With that in mind, here's a dozen suggestions for other places around town to get a cheese fries fix.

Angry Dog

Copy Link
An excellent place for drunk food, Angry Dog serves a straight-up version of cheese fries with melted cheddar that you can doctor up however you like: bacon, grilled jalapenos, and sour cream, perhaps?

Anvil Pub

Copy Link
Vegan chili cheese fries? Yes, that's a thing, and they can be found at this Deep Ellum bar. Plus, the fries are baked, so they're considerably healthier than the traditional deep-fried version.

Cafe Brazil

Copy Link
Cafe Brazil dusts their fries with some sort of starch before frying, so they stay crispy even when blanketed under a thick layer of cheese, bacon, scallions, and jalapenos; toppings are evenly distributed so you're not left with a sad bunch of naked fries at the bottom.

Company Cafe

Copy Link
Company Cafe's cheese fries utilize sweet potatoes, which gives a little added dimension to the melty cheese, loads of bacon bits, and fresh sliced jalapenos. Despite Company Cafe's gluten-free and grass-fed leanings, this definitely is not health food.

Elbow Room

Copy Link
The Elbow Room has just been resurrected after being closed for several months, so get over there for some late-night shuffleboard and top-notch cheese fries, if you can make it past the pizza.

Goodfriend Beer Garden and Burger House

Copy Link
Goodfriend switches it up a little with waffle-cut fries; they come topped with cheese, scallions, bacon, and jalapenos, but we suggest you gild the lily by adding blue cheese and pulled pork. Add a beer and you've got a damn fine, if perhaps heart attack-inducing, meal.

Hopdoddy Burger Bar

Copy Link
Hopdoddy's cheese fries are not exactly what you'd expect: Fresh Kennebec fries are served with a cup of decadent green chile queso for dipping, so they never got soggy.

Ketchup Burger Bar

Copy Link
The white-truffle parmesan fries here aren't exactly cheese fries, per se, but they are fries with cheese on them, so let's not fight over semantics, k? (There's also a chili-cheese version with jalapenos, for the purists.)

Lakewood Landing

Copy Link
Delightfully divey Lakewood Landing's cheese fries are natural cut and topped with cheddar-jack, jalapenos, bacon, and green onions (and a side of ranch, because duh). Secret ingredient? Bacon fat drizzled on top.

Maple & Motor

Copy Link
Maple & Motor's homemade chili is pretty luscious stuff, so it's no surprise it makes for some killer chili-cheese fries on top of the perfectly salt-and-peppered potatoes. (The bacon and cheese version is pretty damn good, too.)

Off Site Kitchen

Copy Link
Nick Badovinus' lunch spot serves what are arguably the city's best French fries --crisp, dark golden brown and always perfectly seasoned-- and they'll make a nacho-cheese slathered version if you ask nicely. Don't forget the side of amazing housemade ranch.

ssahmBBQ

Copy Link
Ssahm's kimchee fries are a gift sent from the heavens. Fresh-cut fries are smothered in cheddar and Monterey jack cheeses, caramelized kimchi, onions, cilantro, and spicy, creamy mayo.
