Famous for its frankfurters - like the sign says - since 1940, Jimmy John's official name is Jimmy John's Pipin' Hot Sandwiches, and whatever you order is sure to leave you stuffed and happy.

Both locals and those passing through, including a jolly fella from up north, offer glowing reviews of this hot dog joint, calling it fun, a must-stop, and praising it for serving delicious classic food.

If you've got a fan of trains in the family or if you're one, you'll absolutely love the train-themed decor.

Since Jimmy John's is famous for its frankfurters, it's only natural to try one on at least one of your visits. How about a hot dog topped with all of your favorites?

You can never go wrong, either, with the special frankfurter, which comes piled high with chili, cheese, and bacon. It's sure to leave you absolutely stuffed.

Ever wondered what hot dog soup would taste like? Wonder no more. Just order the homemade special franks and beans soup or, if you prefer a classic, scoop up a bowl of chili.

Jimmy John's might be best known for those famous frankfurters, but diners also rave about their classic burgers and cheeseburgers. Cheesesteak, fried chicken, and sloppy Joes are also on the menu.

A hot dog by itself is downright delicious, but it's just not the same unless it's paired with a hearty helping of golden fries - plain, with chili and cheese, or just with cheese - and maybe some onion rings.

No matter how absolutely stuffed you are, you're never too full for a cold treat to cap off your meal, right? Treat yourself to an old-fashioned ice cream cone or milkshake.
