KASPER'S HOT DOGS - Oakland

So first. I love these hot dogs. Totally grew up on them and I'm forever grateful they are still around . But the fact that this lady doesn't wear gloves bothers me. And she has claws. And her hair is shedding and she doesn't wear a hair net. I'd inquired why she never wears gloves and she told me that the gloves would melt. I am not confident cause I've watched her help 7 customers and not once did she wash her hands. Super unsanitary BUYER BEWARE

Was hungry for hot dogs, so we traveled 5 miles each way to try them out. Great Hot Dogs and the Ladies there were super nice. Made us feel like old friends. Got the Chili Cheese Dog and loved every bite. Thank You Ladies!

This store sponsored my senior league team in 72-73...love the food and the folks here..

This is a pretty no-frills place that time forgot. No fancy menu: just a few hot dog styles with your choice of toppings, chips (no fries), and various beverages. That's pretty much it. Their hot dogs are pretty good, though. If all you want are basic hot dogs, this is the place. I'll probably go back once in a while.

As a kid I used to passed this on my way to school and I think tried it once as a young adult. Now 30 years later it one of the few locations still open. Did you know its founder was Armenian? When I was a kid I didn't know what Armenian was, but with time and travel I end up working in one the 2 largest Armenian communities outside of Armenia, but I digress. Have moved back I'm trying my old haunts (that are still around and haven't succumbed to gentrification. Kaspers is one of them. The decor certainly hasn't gentrified from the late 60s or 70s and the orange strips are calling Austin Powers for reboot. Menu is simple and service is simple. Hotdogs, chips, and fountain drinks. Step up, tell the nice lady what Hot dog you want, what if any topping you want and for there or to go. Toppins like onions, tomatoes are fresh cut. The ladies know their regulars. I ordered the cajun dog, with onions and tomatoes and mustard, bbq chips, and an orange fizz. (Note it not actually fizzy, but reminds me a nonfrothy orange julius) In a world of overload this was a nice simple lunch for under $9.
