January 4, 2013 · by Lindsay · in Eat Local, food & drink, restaurants

We’re happy to kick off the new year with a visit to a new Pittsburgh establishment. Opening very soon – as in a few hours – is the newest outpost of Pittsburgh most local hot dog shop – Franktuary. 8 years ago Franktuary opened in the basement of a church downtown. This week – Franktuary opens their second location in Lawrenceville. The owners have been referring to the opening of the Lawrenceville location as “The Second Coming” – you can see lots more tweets and photos of the build out on Twitter with the #PrepareYeForTheSecondComing

Here are a few photos of the new Franktuary…

We were honored to be invited to get a sneak peak at the new place during earlier this week.

In addition to franks, the new Franktuary has a bar with cocktails, draft beer and draft kombucha.

First kombucha ever on tap in Pennsylvania! twitter.com/Franktuary/sta…

The new menu has hot dogs (of course), fries, meatballs and lots more. Friend of IheartPGH was so hungry the food was devoured before this blogger could snap a photo. You’ll have to stop by and see the food for yourself.
