The customers are a motley bunch, coming from far and wide to worship at this greasy altar since the '50s.

Hot Dogs

by LinKaye

1) The hot dogs are the best I've ever had - even after living in a few states, they are the gold standard. Nothing has measured up yet, after 20 years.

2)The prices are unbelievable! When I was a poor college kid, I could still get a meal. That hasn't changed!

3)The fries - too bad they can't mail-order them to the East Coast.

  • Pros: The ENTIRE menu
  • Cons: none
