Flub A Dub Chub’s

Flub A Dub Chub’s is a basement-level hot dog and burger stand at 3021 N Broadway in Lakeview East, down a flight of stairs from the sidewalk. The stand sells Vienna Beef hot dogs, including a quarter-pound dog called the Chubby, a pulled pork chub dog and burgers. A Wall of Shame on the premises records customers who ask for ketchup. Eater Chicago, The Infatuation and Time Out Chicago all include Flub A Dub Chub’s on their Chicago hot dog lists.
