So they never mentioned anything else (lol). There was this breakfast & Lunch place on Bloomfield Ave we use to go to as well. I forget the name, but it only opened from 5am - 2:00pm. It was very small, stayed packed and the breakfast was pretty good.

    I am from Newark born and raised. I was a Newark Public Schools Teacher and First started substitute teaching at Abington Avenue School in the same area up the street from Dickey Dee's. I used to buy their Italian hot dogs which are the best. I now live in Surprise, Arizona and miss Dickie Dee's hot dogs. I hope they open one here in Surprise, AZ. I had my daughter to ask well known food sampler and influencer to stop by and sample the food especially the hot dogs. He will put in a good word for Dickie Dee's that will give your business a huge boost and greater coverage in customers. I miss the food there.

I was only 2 years old in 1958 when this place was established so it seems to me like this institution has been around forever. Love that they kept the old school look both inside and out. Worth a try for sure.

What makes the Newark and New York City Bakery Breads so exceptional is the water. Both have upstate ressivors the supply pristine water.
