Did you know there’s a bar in New York City where buying a beer gets you a FREE hot dog?
This is Rudy’s Bar & Grill in Hell’s Kitchen, and it’s been serving New Yorkers since 1933.
But there’s more to Rudy’s than FREE hot dogs.
Outside stands a six foot pig known as The Baron, one of the most recognizable bar mascots in New York City. In fact, The Baron was stolen twice before being permanently bolted down.
And according to a long running Hell’s Kitchen rumor, this building once operated as a speakeasy during Prohibition.
Today, Rudy’s is still one of New York City’s most iconic bars, famous for serving affordable beer while handing out thousands of FREE hot dogs every week.
