Description

the Doggie Diner. History: Doggie Diner was a small fast food restaurant chain in San Francisco than ran from 1949 to 1986, owned by Al Ross. The Doggie Diner went out of business in 1986 after trying to compete with big chain restaurants such McDonald's and Burger King. Al Ross died in 2010 at the age of 93. Doggie Diner Heads The most notable feature of the chain were the Doggie Diner heads of a weiner dog wearing a bow tie and a chef's hat. After the Doggie Diner went out of business, all the heads were taken down, many being resold to private parties but one, which is on Sloat Boulevard, near 45th Avenue. On August 11, 2008, the Doggie Diner head became a San Francisco landmark. Thank you for stopping by. I really do appreciate all your views and comments on all my last posts.
