70-cent hot dogs at Pink’s weeklong 70th anniversary bash
November 9th, 2009, 11:38 am · 21 Comments · posted by Nancy Luna, Staff Writer
Pink's chili dog
Pink’s Hot Dogs is celebrating its 70th anniversary this week with a cool deal: 70-cent chili dogs.
The cheap dogs will be available for 70 minutes every night this week through Friday starting at 7 p.m. at the Hollywood location. Pink’s is located at the corner of La Brea and Melrose Avenues.
Drats! I like this deal, but I’m bummed that it is not available at Pink’s new Knott’s Berry Farm location, which opened a few weeks ago.

I’m not the biggest fan of Pink’s, but you can’t beat 70 cents for a chili dog. For those living in south OC, I don’t think anyone is driving up to LA just for this deal.
2 weeks ago we went to Knotts to have a Pinks hotdog………the chili dog was $3.35………….a 70¢ is a sweet deal!
several years ago I drove from the O.C. to Pinks and paid full price!……it was well worth it………..fantastic dog!
Yeah “several years ago” when gasoline was not $3/gallon.
Will you drive up there now, just for a hot dog??
Yikes! That is one unattractive chili dog. Doesn’t Pink’s have promo photos of their food?
Why put a ‘beauty’ shot of a dog, when I have the real thing!? I took this picture of my Pink’s chili dog right after I bought it at the OC fair booth…
And how much of it made it into your mouth?
Hey, Haute Links in Irvine has a 99 cent chili dog every Tuesday. We are located at Main & MacArthur Blvd., in The Square shopping center.
Come check it out….
We have gourmet sausages of all varieties as well as classic hot dogs, with a full self serve condiment bar.
I prefer PCH hotdogs, and I don’t have to drive to LA
I’m with you.
This is the most disgusting photo of a hot dog I have seen in my ENTIRE life….horrrrid!
Got love for PInks, but Tommy’s is better and much more convienent to get to!
Tommy’s is better portion,price and taste wise!!
The line’s always long enough, this is going to cause it to explode!!
ATTENTION: The normal hour line at Pink’s for a Hot Dog will now be 2 hours beginning immediately and lasting until Friday. I repeat, a 2 hour wait for a hot dog!
5 dollar lunches are always appreciated:)
My friend just left Pink’s in LA and reported that Huell Hauser and his California’s Gold film crew will be there TONIGHT to shoot video. So if you wanna be on TV this is your chance.
I still say Portillos is the BEST!
I was at Knott’s on Sunday and Pink’s temporary spot is already closed. They have a sign saying their permanent space will open soon.
It closed the day after Halloween…………I was there the weekend prior………great chilidog!
We will be at Knott’s on Thanksgiving (the buffett is not to be missed!). Will probably not try a Pinks; unless my dad offers to pay for it.
Whether or not your Dad offers to pay for it……….you absolutely will not be trying a Pink’s hot dog on Thanksgiving day………..they closed up shop until Mid December…………
I have been going to Pinks in LA since the 60’s when I was 15. I am now 62 and was elated to find that they opened in Buena Park. They are the best hot dogs I have ever had. When I was a teenager they were 0.25 each.
