Our Story

Famous Since 1985.

Locally owned, community loved, and proud to serve Virginia Beach since 1985.

Virginia Beach Since 1985

More Than Just A Hot Dog

Famous Uncle Al's opened its doors in 1985 with a simple idea: serve the best hot dogs in Virginia Beach using quality ingredients. That idea hasn't changed. The menu has grown. The community has grown. But the commitment to quality is exactly the same as it was on day one.

Locally owned, community loved, and proud to serve Virginia Beach since 1985. When you eat here, you're supporting your neighbors.

We've been voted Best Hot Dogs in Virginia Beach for over 10 consecutive years. It's an award we're incredibly proud of — but the real reward is the regulars who've been coming since the beginning, bringing their kids, and now bringing their grandkids.

That's what it's all about.
