At Casey’s Hot Dogs, guests can feel like they are at a game in the baseball themed restaurant. Choose from a starting line-up of nine hotdogs, while watching an MLB game, and enjoying a piece of local delicacy and history.The restaurant gets its name from the famous poem, “Casey at the Bat,” which can be seen on the brick walls of shop. The poem was first published in 1888 by Ernest Thayer and has become one of the most well known poems in American Literature. It revolves around the last play of a baseball game, where the “Mudville Nine” team and “Casey” is up to bat. The name Mudville is a former nickname for the city of Stockton, known for flooding, says the restaurant’s owner Peter Koulouris, who was born and raised in the city.
But that isn’t the only impressive aspect of Casey’s Hot Dogs, which will celebrate its one-year anniversary on July 4, 2014. These dogs are some of the biggest in the Valley, ranging from 8-10 inches long (five inches for kiddies). The hot dogs and sausages are made exclusively from Alpine meats, laid on Genova bread and smothered with the best local ingredients around, from guacamole, jalapenos and chili to bacon and cheese. And if that wasn’t enough, the restaurant also serves beer, and arguably the best garlic fries around. With this line-up, Casey’s hot dogs are sure to hit a home run with your taste buds.
