My Son Tyler re-opened Nicks Famous Coney Island on SE Hawthorne.....Drop in & ask for Ty. If your in radio he will only accept cash! heh heh.........anyway....Its open and its damn good.
Try a double coney! He has loved the place since he was a little kid, so this is a dream come true to get a historic haunt in Stumptown. They are open 7 days a week/ late.

For all the years I lived in PDX, I never made it over to try one...

I'm putting it on my things-to-do list when I come up in late August! Thanks for the word, Dave...

AND THANK YOU, TY!!

I will be there for sure. I Love a good dog and have been meaning to make it over there.

Nick's is worth the effort. I've been in there many times. Its another "Portland Landmark". Way to go Tyler to keep Portland Portland.

This should be the location for the next PDX Radio get-together. Maybe the Stoner can make a cameo appearance.

Maybe Stoner could start doing LIVE broadcasts At Nicks Famous Coney Island. He could take the place of the now Defunct Rock and Roll cafe.

It want be the same with out Frank,but i am always game for a double chili dog and a cold beer,what they need is a killer jukebox

wait till you see the juke box! And there are many tributes to the king of all dogs Frank Nudo inside. Enjoy!

Gotta love a yummy hot dog and a cold beer!

When might the "Time Machine" reappear?

when a oldies station wants to let this old hack do his thing without a music list playing the same 150 songs over & over and allow Dirty Dave & I the freedom to have some fun on the radio. Don't hold your breath! I would have to say the #1 compliment from listeners of the old Kisn show was that they heard songs that never get airplay....Harlow & Minck were smart enough to allow a diet of this on the air and listeners really seemed to enjoy it.

I MISS KISN AND THE STONER SHOW!! There's no where else that Dirty Dave can use all that useless knowledge!! ;- ) His head is overflowing with artists, dates of release, record labels,etc. We've got to get him help soon!! Bring back the oldies format!! I'll be listening and enjoying a coney at Nicks!!

The Juke Box At Nicks Famous Coney Island is Like 97.1 Charlie FM On Acid

I was there on Saturday. Winner. Hot girls working there also. Very HOT.

Kool is about as close to Oldies as we're likely to ever get again! Maybe, if you pay them enough money...

Is Kirby working there?

I LOVE NICK'S!! When I'm up in a few weeks...I'm stoppin' off!!

I always ate at Roake's, but have heard of Nick's. Both places will be on my "to-do list" when I come home next summer.

Atta boy Tyler! Top Dog in PDX!

Hey Stoner,
I stoped by for a dog the other day and I gotta say those were some nice looking "Hotties" working at Nick's. Your son must be doing all the hiring! He's got great taste in women

Oh, and the food was excellent too!

U gotta wonder about a restaurant that gets the best reviews for the waittresses. Like that old backhanded review of a broadway show -- they left humming the seenery.

Stopped by again tonight. It was packed. They have a great stereo system in there. It was all Elvis when I was in. Cool.

Stopped for lunch yesterday...the famous Coneys are incredible. Had a double. The dogs were fresh, hot and had that 'crunch' that really great dogs have. Coney meat was tasty (spicy!) and the shredded cheese and diced onions were fresh and plentiful.

I love me some dogs - these are top notch.

The Mac salad was fair. Perhaps it's a legacy thing, not for me.

Good selection of other sandwiches and wings and whatnot.

Nick's really is a great neighborhood hang-out now. Huge HDTV's for games. Cold beers and good food. Same space, but WAY cleaner and brighter than it's been for years. Decades maybe. Booths and stools and a few tables.

Ty has dropped some coin in here bringing this place back to life. Best of the old, some great up to date touches. Make a point of checking it out.

I think a PDXRadio.com get together here is a great idea.

Now excuse me. I have to go run 30 miles.
