Cheap, convenient, local. I don't mean local in terms of locally sourced - if you're of the Chemex-and-tofu set you'll hate this place. But this is an old-school Pittsburgh establishment, and the prices feel straight out of 1990. I come here for lunch about once a week. The hot dogs and kielbasa are amazing and a meal won't set you back more than $5. As long as you don't mind reminding the cashiers that you got a drink or that you ordered kraut on your dog, this is a wonderful place to grab a bite, and a really great way to experience the North Side.
