It is Saturday, which basically means it is mandatory chili cheese dog day for me. I stopped by and grabbed my usual chili cheese dog and a regular cheese dog, and they totally hit the spot. The bun was soft, and the tomatoes and onions were fresh and the relish added the right amount of tang. Everything was put together in a way that only a good hot dog spot can pull off. I keep coming back for a reason, and today reminded me why. read more

We travel out of our way to stop here every so often as we and our families have enjoyed Casper's for many generations, but today will be our last visit to this location. Menu prices on their menu in store did not reflect what we were charged. When asked the worker why we were charged so much they said they rang up our combo differently but it reflected the same price. Here's the breakdown of what we ordered: 1x Chicken combo + Cheese $10.59 + $1.00 1x Chili Cheese Dog $8.39 1x Bag of Chips $1.59 Tax should be $2.21 Total should be $23.78 We were charged $27 something. As we ate inside we punched the numbers from their menu board into a calculator and were in fact charged nearly $5 more than what we should have been. In addition, their online pick up prices are much higher than their menu on the wall. Alas, we paid more than the heightened online prices. read more

It was early in the afternoon so it wasn't crowded I got my order & was in and out in 5 min. Tops! read more

Local hot dog chain that serves some pretty delicious hot dogs! It's a pretty dated, establishment, but I feel like that makes its personality shine through. There's parking at the side and a decent amount of booth and counter side seating as well. The workers were very friendly and welcoming and I really enjoyed that. We got the Hot Link with the following toppings: tomato, onion, mustard, and relish. They even offered to cut the Hot Link in half since we were planning to share it as a snack. The Hot Link was decently spicy, not a super strong kick but hit the spot with all the other toppings and condiments on top. They don't skimp out on them either. I'd drop by again next time when I get the chance! read more

My guilty pleasure, forever. Whenever I drive past Hayward, there's better than even odds I stop by this wonderful establishment. There's a reason why this place is basically a local establishment. First, the service is super-fast, attentive, and great. They'll quickly ask you for everything you want on and not on the hotdog (though for me, the typical answer is that I want everything on it). The hot dogs are made warm and hot from their contained hot dog containment device. Second, the hot dogs are just really good. Each of them is flavorful - and I think at this point I've had every single hot dog on the menu. My favorite in particular is the hot link - it's actually pretty hot! They told me it was pretty spicy and they were right - definitely has a kick. It's also very convenient, since they put all the condiments in for you and you can obviously request which condiments you want and which one you don't. So it's actually something that can be eaten to-go. Pricing is more or less affordable and fine. Comparable to what you'd pay at most fast food restaurants if not slightly less, but with really a higher tier of quality. Outside of Costco hot dogs (which are pretty much not meant to make money, they're famous loss-leaders meant to entice people to go to Costco), these are definitely some of the best hot dogs you can get at this price point. Highly recommended anything anyone is in Hayward! read more

After trying the other hot dog place that starts with a K, it was time to try here. I ordered a Casper dog, which was a pork beef blend and an all beef with chili. The pork beef had a nice snap and the all beef was very large. The chili was mostly beans. Overall, the staff was very nice however everything lacked flavor. read more

This place is a Bay Area legend I've heard and I figured since I was in Hayward to get clothes for work, I'd check this out bc there isn't a location in SF for me to go to. The place had 1960s/70s vibes for sure, with an elderly woman serving my food (felt like being in a movie where there's an old lady named Flo taking your order). The hot dogs were.... Hot dogs. To me, it was nothing super spectacular BUT let's not discount that they were good. If you're in the area definitely try them but I wouldn't go way out my way to get one. read more

So sad and so expensive.... I remember when the dogs were a foot long and the produce was diced and topped with cheese. They used to be my favorite as a kid but it's terrible now. The service was ok but the ladies were short and rushed. Not to mention I came from out of state to get a taste of what I lived as a kid only to be let down.... read more

Was in town so decided to stop into a Caspers. First time for a Caspers restaurant, but not new to the Casper dog. My dad loves Caspers hotdogs and we can't get them where we live. We both got the Original Casper dog combo. Comes with a bag of chips of your choice and a drink. The original Casper dog comes with onion, tomato, mustard, and relish. I am not a fan of relish as I do not care for the sweet flavor, but you could not even taste it was on there. I did test it out and it is a sweet relish, not dill. We also got a bowl of chili with cheese and onion. The staff was very friendly. I love that there is no discrimination and our elders are still able to work. The place was an older building, but it was clean. We came in right after 12pm on a Saturday and it was busy! There was a line out the door. Most appeared to be regulars. read more

Best hot dogs on the planet hands down. They have been around since for ever. Unfortunately one of the Hayward locations recently closed but they still have the foothill location and a couple in Oakland I believe. Counter service is great and it's old school all the way definitely stop by one of the locations and give the. A try you want be disappointed read more

Delicious hot dogs. The staff here are super nice people and work fast to get you your food. The interior of this location is so great and feels like stepping back in time because of how nicely preserved and maintained everything is, including the classic menu board. The menu is somewhat on the smaller side; there's nine different dogs to choose from and all come with tomatoes, onions, mustard, and relish unless you hold any or all of them. Any of them can be made into a combo (chips and a drink), and they offer a couple of other things like milkshakes and a chili bowl. Simple and concise. I got the chili cheese dog and kept the mustard and onions, held the relish and tomatoes. Had to go in with a fork and knife because there was so much chili and melted cheddar and it was great. Nothing super spectacular or original, just a tasty dog. The chili was nice and on the spicy side. I thought the onions might be caramelized but they were raw and diced, so be aware if you don't like raw onions (I'd hold those next time). I'd definitely come back here again. Most dogs are around $5, the combos are $8. No fuss, just good food and nice people in a fantastic vintage space. read more

I am a sucker for a good hotdog and Casper has great hotdogs! This location is our go to in my household, the staff is always funny and witty and I appreciate their humor. When I was there the OG staff answered the phone and stated, "yes we're open but we're not here" that had me cracking up! I went with the Casper hot dog with mayonnaise, mustard tomatoes, onions and jalapeños. I appreciate the really amazing fresh ingredients that are cut right in front of you. My partner went with two hot links with cheese and tomatoes and those were also amazing. I appreciate how they steam their buns to perfection.

Caspers - Polish Dog - Hot Dogs Near Me - Hayward, California

Although freshly made, the 3 hot dogs didn't seem fresh when we made it home one mile away to eat them. One was a chilli dog which tasted tangy and weird. Today I'm paying for eating at this establishment, by running back and forth to the bathroom. Eat here at your own risk, I don't know if it was because how the food was stored. Poor food safety protocols. I'm the only one who had the chilli and the only one who got ill. So I'm assuming bad chilli. Get it together Casper, a almost $9 chilli dog and this what I get, just gross. read more

Casper's is one of the few places left with that old-school style and feel to it. I used to come here a lot back when I lived in the area. And I used to go to a different Casper's growing up. So Casper's hot dogs have been a staple in my life for a little while. Is this place the cleanest? No. Classic, old-school places like this often aren't. But does it still have good hot dogs with whatever toppings you want? Yup. Even now, I'll still crave a Casper's dog here and there - a dog with tomatoes, shredded cheese, relish, or whatever I'm feeling that day. And the next time I'm in downtown Hayward area, I'll be sure to stop in... If, for nothing else, to get a good hot dog and remember what life used to be like. read more

Who doesn't love Casper's hotdogs ... the food is good!! The service is good and the ambiance well old but it's Casper's

I'm giving three stars because service is usually good and the ladies are polite. The last two times they didn't have enough beef dogs. I bought the two they did have which I found weren't cooked all the way. When I bit into the hot dog it was a little rubbery. I called to let them know to be more careful. They offered to replace them but I told them I would just boil them myself. Once they were fully cooked the dogs curled up a little and they weren't rubbery.I've been going to Casper's for over forty years and this is the first negative experience. read more

Never grew up in the East Bay, but, apparently, these dogs are well known. The dog has a nice snap as you bite into it. Very good hotdog.

Counter was dirty. Only 1 Woman was working didn't even make an attempt to clean it. Hot Dogs. Lukewarm. Here's the Best. Lady serving was wearing latex gloves counting money with gloves on and handling and preparing the food without changing gloves. Yuk. Money is probably the filthiest thing on the planet. I paid in advance and wasn't in mood for confrontation. So took my food to go and tossed in trash when I got down the block. Maybe someone needs a refresher course in food safety. You won't catch me in that place again. read more

Came to sit down hadn't been here in a while and I was with my three younger kids and was asked to leave because they were making too much noise like you know kids or kids.
