An Alameda icon, the Pampered Pup is in the heart of downtown and has been for decades. The orange dog pictured in the window is recognizable to any Alameda native. The hot dog options are seemingly endless, including deluxe dogs ( with chopped onions, relish and tomato), kraut dogs, chili dogs, veggie dogs, cheese dogs, hot links, and plain old hot dogs. This low-key restaurant is popular with high school students and moviegoers looking for a quick bite.
