Doggie Diner
Date EstablishedLocation1948California
Description
The premier Doggie Diner was open for business in 1948 at the San Francisco Bay location with selections of hot dogs, french fries, hamburgers, and fountain drinks. The expansion of more stores continued in the same area until it was sold in 1969 to the Ogden Corporation. The site flourished until 1986 and could no longer keep up with the larger franchises so closed the doors on all locations. The name is still in use to offer hot dogs at Oracle Park, the home stadium of the San Francisco Giants. The mascot signs of a large dog head wearing a bow tie and chef's hat were sold to various businesses.

Cruising through many states of America, remnants of eateries of the past can still be found. Travel back to a stage in time with me to rekindle the memories of food franchises and the lost cuisine of bygone days. We can remember the presence of these dining experiences in their heyday long ago, but still etched in moments and recollections.
