The Dog Shack, a veteran-owned food truck known around Fresno for its bacon-wrapped Sonoran-style hot dogs, has traded the road for a storefront. The business held a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Saturday for its new permanent location, setting up shop inside a Zippy Mart on Herndon Avenue in Fresno.
The Dog Shack started as a food truck and has served the Central Valley on wheels for years, according to KMPH Fox 26. The business describes itself as a veteran owned and operated small business, a detail echoed on its DoorDash listing, which also notes the truck's Sonoran-style bacon-wrapped dogs and its lineup of flavored lemonades and fusion drinks.
From Truck Window to Storefront Counter
Fans of the operation may already recognize the owners from a local television appearance. A Central Valley Today segment previously featured Vanessa and Manuel Olmos, identified as the owners of the food truck, serving up their menu for viewers, with the segment promising a taste of their popular hot dogs and other menu items, per yourcentralvalley.com.
The move into a fixed Herndon Avenue address marks a new chapter for a business that built its name serving customers from a truck window. Longtime regulars who've tracked down the Dog Shack at various stops around the Central Valley now have a steady spot to find the same bacon-wrapped dogs, lemonades and fusion drinks that earned the truck its following.
