Jack’s Hot Dog Stand was opened in 1917 by Jaffros “Jack” Levanos and is still family run and owned.  Jack’s son John and his wife Lucille took over and were followed by their son Jeff and his wife Mary Lou.  They have a son, so who knows how long this can go on.  It’s a small place with only stools facing the counter.  Along the wall behind them, stand those waiting for a seat or their to-go order.   This place has history and people have been coming for generations.  The prices are low and the staff seemed to know many of the patrons.  The service is ultra fast and we got ours to-go and ate on the bench outside.  Hot dog buns were kept in the steamer and so are very soft and the hot dogs are sizzling on the side griddle.   Fries are fresh, peeled and fried in house daily.  They could have benefitted from a 2 step frying process and been crisper but the thought is there.  The small hot dog was covered with an average chili and a thin slice of cheese that disappeared.  It was quite soft overall but you go here for history and tradition, so you should try it if you find yourself nearby.
