Smilin' Clyde's Hot Dogs

Smilin' Clyde's Hot Dogs Smilin' Clyde's is the premier provider of Chicago-Style Hot Dogs & so much more! Smilin' Clyde's Hot Dogs was founded in 2011.

Owner Clyde Anhalt always had a dream of bringing back the quintessential “Chicago” feeling of ordering and enjoying a steamed bun and hot dog topped in the uniquely Chicago “dragged thru the garden” style from a retro style hot dog cart like he remembered from “back in the day”. He put his plan into action by purchasing a hot dog cart built in the 60’s and internally retrofitted it to conform to the current regulation’s while maintaining the nostalgic look of the hot dog carts from the “good old days”. Smilin' Clyde's can cater any size party. Owner, Clyde Anhalt, prepares all food to ensure the highest quality. Smilin' Clyde's is a great alternative to traditional party foods.
