Where can you shoot pool all day and night and get a hot dog smothered in a secret-recipe chili sauce from a once-loved, long-departed diner? Romine’s High Pockets (6125 S. 27th St., Greenfield), of course.
This local treasure run by the Romine family since 1991 has an impressive 51 tables – the most in Southeastern Wisconsin, per their reckoning. They also own a manufacturing company that makes high-end cues that typically fetch four-figure prices.

But back to that hush-hush recipe, the late Romine family patriarch was friends with the owner of the Walker’s Point dog purveyor Coney Island and bought the classified recipe in 2013.
“My brother is the only one who knows and makes the sauce exactly like they did,” says owner Nicole Romine.
