Coney Island Famous Weiners

How can you not love a place where the servers memorize your orders?! I go there twice a month — not too often– and they know my exact order. Super fast, never have to wait, kind of retro in the fact that you don’t see places like this anymore. Western Maryland staple. Right on the bricks of Cumberland to add the historic value. He even flattens my ketchup packets every time! I hate when they’re mushed. Lol

Stopped in for a couple of hot dogs and fries. This joint has been here since 1918. Old school luncheonette with spinning stools. A lot of history in this place. They have a limited menu here. Dogs, burgers, fish sandwiches, French fries, shakes and a few other items. Prices are rock bottom. As for quality and quantity you get what you paid for. If you love hotdogs it’s worth trying out if for no other reason to see the places history.

This place is great, Curtis has created the must eat place while visiting Cumberland. Makes me want to go get a hotdog as I type.

Nice place and the dogs are pretty good. Be aware they take cash only. They are friendly and fairly cheap.

Probably the best hot dogs I have ever had. I do not stop in that often, but when I do I order as many as I can possibly eat. I order «without» which is mustard and a chili sauce on it. «With» comes with onions on it also. Wish they still had the cherry smash though. I believe coke discontinued the product they used to make it so it is not their fault. Wish they would still find a way to make it though. Put the meal over the top! The place has been around since I was a kid and it has always been my favorite place for a hot dog. Great «mom and pop» type of place that makes delicious wieners! (Same place as Curtis Famous Weiners)

After spending the better part of last winter trying to duplicate their sauce to satisfy my cravings I have given up. There is no substitute for the little wieners smothered in that delicious mystery sauce. If you see a car out front with Alaska tags you will know what happened.

If you have the opportunity to eat here DO IT! You will never be let down. Definitely get your weiners with the «special sauce» I crave it all the time. Their chocolate rickeys and crinkle cut fries (I get em extra crispy) make a perfect combination. The family that runs the place is beyond friendly.

We visited Cumberland this weekend and found this great place while walking around down town. Get a wiener with everything plus cheese. You won’t regret it. We visit family in Morgantown and Cumberland is about halfway. From now on, I am going to stop at Curtis’ for a great hotdog on the way. They have great shakes too!

This Place is My favorite place in all of Cumberland.
It’s a Tradition in Cumberland, and everyone goes there.
The Hotdogs are topped with a bean-​less chili, mustard & onions, the buns are soft & hot. They are served with a side of crinkle cut fries, but the hail in comparison to the wieners.
the place has a «old town charm» Wooden tables, built in Benches, Coat Hooks & Old Pictures up on the wall.
Just make sure you know how to order the dogs.

My husband’s from Cumberland, and eating Coney Island hot dogs has been a family tradition for many years. Any time we travel back East to visit family, we really look forward to stopping here. We used to eat three or four hot dogs (with everything) at one sitting, but as we’ve gotten older we usually try to restrain ourselves and have just two!

They are proud to have been serving weiners since 1918! Drive past the fast food places just off I 68, and you’ll find Curtis’ (really part of the name) in Downtown Cumberland. It’s been there since, «before ‘Johnny Went Marching Off’ to War!» A shabby, greasy spoon, serves up a traditional coney dog. The chili has a bland taste, but pretty good. Disappointment with my hot dog led me to order the Cheeseburger (frozen beef patty fried to extinction served on cold bun.) Couldn’t eat that, so ordered «Fish Tail Sandwich» to go. Very tasty, flaky, cornmeal coated, fried plank of fish with cheese. Next time I stop in Cumberland, I’ll go marching back and get the «Cheese Sandwich» and chocolate milk with french fries to go – the healthy alternative.

My family has been eating Coney Island Wieners for 5 generations. (My family is from Cumberland.)I personally have been known to eat 6 or 7 in one go. I live in Philly, which is 4 hours away, but have made day trips just to pick some up.
I went for a visit over the weekend, and brought back 12.
This place is more than delicious dogs, and chocolate rickies, it is a family tradition. My great grandmother took my grandmother. She took her kids, my mom took me and my brothers, and I take my neice. I hope it is around another 100 years.

Worth a visit, this hot dog place has been in business for almost 100 years. They do coney dogs… little weiners with ground beef sauce in a steamed bun, with or without sliced onions. And to drink, have a cherry smash.
