8 Best Hot Dog Spots in Durham, North Carolina | Eater Carolinas
"If your timing is right when you visit King’s, hop across the street with your hot dog and watch a high school baseball game at the historic ballpark. Centrally located in downtown Durham, King’s is a piece of history surrounded by breweries and new builds. Opened in 1942, King’s is one of the longest-standing restaurants in Durham. It provides a quintessential hot dog experience all the way, nothing fancy. When asked what toppings are offered, the cashier responded, “Anything you can think of putting on a hot dog.” Vegetarians will appreciate that amidst the menu of dogs, burgers, and shakes is a fine veggie dog. Loaded with all of the toppings, it’s hard to notice the difference. A veggie dog will ring in at $3.50, while a traditional “King’s” hot dog starts at just $1.85." - Gabi Mendick
