Five Points Hot Dogs - Birmingham

Very friendly staff, fast service, cheap and tasty. they would not call it gourmet, but it is not trying to be just a good place to fall for a fat burger or chili dog. appropriate number of seats and dedicated parking spaces. many regular.

All the negative reviews about this place and its owner are completely justified. Here’s what I encountered during my visit: 1. The owner was extremely rude and exhibited racist behavior. 2. The food quality is unhealthy (as seen by the conditions in the kitchen). 3. The owner is greedy; he charged me more when he realized I had no other options. I strongly advise against visiting.

I had always noticed this place, but I never went inside until now, and I was pleasantly surprised by their hot dogs. They were also quite affordable! The staff was friendly, and my food was ready in no time. I will definitely give it another try. The workers were wearing masks and gloves, had hand sanitizer available, and took measures to minimize contact with customers.

Since the beginning of April, I have visited the same five restaurants multiple times. Today, I felt like trying something different. Hot dogs sounded enticing, so a quick Google search led me to Five Points Hot Dogs. I understand that many restaurants have had to adjust their hours due to COVID-19, and Five Points Hot Dogs was listed as open until 3:00 PM. It was 1:30 PM, and I figured I had plenty of time to stop by. I arrived in the parking lot at 1:40 PM and noticed the neon "Open" sign. As I looked through the front window, I saw a heart sitting on the counter. However, when I approached and greeted the gentleman inside, I realized he wasn’t enjoying a hot dog himself but was actually busy writing in a book. I waved and asked if they were closed. He looked at me, nodded his head, and gestured for me to leave. Feeling disappointed, I went over to Sneaky Pete's and bought two hot dogs instead. Thank you, Sneaky Pete's! I truly hope the other place stays afloat, but if that's how the owner treats customers, then that's just the reality. I had hoped they would close before their scheduled time, but now I know I won’t be trying them again. If you check out my other reviews, you’ll see how few negative ones I’ve written.
