Our Story
I’m Uncle Franky, and this is my store. My family and I have been slingin’ dogs and serving up a taste of Chicago classics in Northeast Minneapolis for ages. We cram a lot into this little red building, so come on down and check it out!
Meet the Franks
We’re keen on weens! This is my darling wife, your Aunt Patty, and your cousins Marty and Katty. Patty has a knack for flipping the perfect burger, Marty can’t help but slather mustard on anything he sees, and Katty’s something of a ketchup connoisseur if you will. Oh and how could I forget! This pooch here is Pickles. He eats whatever falls off the bun.
What’s the deal with Chicago Dogs?
First of all, Chicago dogs are a lifestyle, and we live it They’re the perfect balance of tang and spice and ooh and ahh, and easily one of the more colorful dogs. It’s our pride and joy, you gotta give it a bite. There’s only one thing: don’t you dare put ketchup on it.
Party in the Back
We’re big fans of the Mullets. Grab a dog and cheer on our favorite Junior A hockey team with us. No matter the score, they’re wieners in our hearts.
