28 Days: Ann's Famous Foot-Long Hot Dogs

world logo

My old roommate, Ben and his wife Torrie suggested we visit this 59-year old hot-dog establishment in Glen Burnie. This fun little shack of grease and grill has a very simple menu of dogs, burgers and cheesesteaks served on these great big buns. The fresh french fries and old-school Baltimore servers top off this unique experience. The place is pretty small with about 8 bar stools set up at the counter and a solid flow of customers ordering their favorite high nitrate items. The staff remembers your topping choices with no notes and quickly feeds you a bag of grub. It's not the most conducive environment for eating and catching up with old friends--but it's definitely got a cool vibe and has a distinctly Baltimore edge.

  1. Michael, I love that you are doing the 40 days 'til 40 - what a great idea! I'm enjoying reading your blog. Anne's is a place Steve grew up going to and still talks about going to Ann's for a hotdog and chocolate shake! :)

    Happy 27th day until you're 40,

    Jan
