There's one in Stuart now (on US 1):Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded.
I read the thread title and immediately thought of it. 10 minutes from home
I remember many late night drunken visits to Petes.
I grew up in Northbrook and Little Louie’s right downtown was pretty good - fries were so greasy they turned the white bags you got them in clear by the time you ate them.
why not? get with it, manI've driven by this place in Denville, but I've never stopped in.
Sit down, shut up and eat it. And don't ask any questions.
Nothing like capping a night drinking at the Coal Hole with a visit to the Coney!! Like the Squeeze-In in Sunbury too.
I like Abe's on S Main St, but I prefer Ferris's Lunch on Barney St. Three with everything (chili sauce, onions and mustard), chocolate milk and a bag of Middleswarth chips. When I'm back in the W-B area I make a stop. Been going there for over 40 years.
No ketchup on Hot Dogs !!

I grew up in Denville. This place is relatively new and I have never been there but it replaces a well know place called the Denville Shack which was on the other side of town on Rt. 46 heading towards Rockaway. Development caused it to be torn down and replaced.
The Stewarts root beer stand in Rockaway also closed a couple of years ago so a new stand with hot dogs, hamburgers and Stewart's root beer makes sense.
That stretch of the Rockaway River, which is across the street from the stand, was one of my favorites for spring trout fishing.
I'd rank Brighton Hot dogs right down there with the Sugardale hot dogs that you can buy a 10 pack of at the dollar store. Heck, they might even be those cheap ass hot dogs.Wow, really? I'm ashamed to say I lived in Beaver Co. for most of my life and went to Boardman all the time (used to have the best comic book shop) and never once ate at or heard of Jay's. On the list for when I go home next time. That said, I'm a die-hard Brighton Hot Dog Shoppe fan...(only restaurant to feature Donnie Iris on a cup!).
He’s an expert on wieners.You know way too much about hot dogs. Are
you related to Oscar Meyer??
Oh he is a Weiner all right!He’s an expert on wieners.
Any love for Jimmy's in Easton? I've heard good things.
I guy I used to work with had family in Easton and would bring them back when he visited. They are served with a pickle beside them on a bun. Maybe they are better fresh off the grill, but I wasn't that impressed.
Just don't tell my cardiologistHe’s an expert on wieners.
There is supposedly a difference between the two restaurants. My brother likes the downtown one better. If I go, I usually go to the Goods Lane (pictured above) restaurant because it's more convenient. I believe the downtown store just got new owners not too long ago and I don't know whether this has changed anything or not.One more for our Altoona friends. I never ate at the Downtown one, only the southside one off Plank Road. Good eats!
They're as good as any good hot dog. Nothing spectacular. You can only get onion, mustard or ketchup and pickle. No chili, etc. Regrettably, Richards is better. Jimmy's is an interesting story. It was owned by 2 random guys that eventually had a MAJOR falling out. Ended up going to court and the judge ordered one to sell out to the other. Last time I was there...and this was over 10 years ago, they were like 2 dogs for $1.25. I remember thinking you have to sell a heck of a lot of hot dogs to employ 3 people and pay the rent in a strip mall.
