Whether a guilty lunchtime quick fix or a favorite late-night snack, Snoopy’s hot dogs have been a Raleigh rite of passage since 1978. It all started when founder Steve Webb converted a vacant service station at the corner of Wake Forest and Whitaker Mill roads — a busy location that proved to be a major factor in its success — into a vending stand, and the rest is local hot dog history. Now, Snoopy’s sells more than $1 million annually in dogs, sandwiches and burgers, with about half of those sales attributed to the famed franks. Pull up to the order window to try an original Snoopy dog with all the fixin’s. You won’t be disappointed. No meal is complete without crinkle-cut fries, seasoned if you prefer. No alcohol available. Serving lunch, dinner and late-night daily. Hours vary by location. Voted Best Hot Dog in the Independent Weekly and Metro magazine 2008 readers polls.
