Iconic Brand Brings the Flavour of New York to Irish Restaurant Chain in Time for Annual Hot Dog Eating Contest

NEW YORK, July 1, 2020 (Newswire.com) - Nathan’s Famous, Inc., the American tradition serving New York favourites for more than 100 years, and Eddie Rocket’s, the Irish restaurant chain who has served customers since 1989 with rock-solid service and killer tunes, today announces their partnership to make Eddie Rocket’s the home of Nathan’s Famous hot dogs in Ireland. The partnership comes just in time as the annual Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest will be internationally broadcasted on ESPN on July 4 at 5 p.m. local time. The brand will be posting live updates on the contest via their instagram, Facebook and Twitter for those who wish to remain at home. Eddie Rocket’s, which will re-open 30 of its locations this week, will feature a special offer that includes a 5-cent hot dog, the original price of a Nathan’s Famous hot dog in 1916, with the purchase of a full-price dog for both dine-in and delivery.

“This partnership provides Nathan’s with a unique opportunity of bringing Nathan’s Famous hot dogs to Ireland for the first time in the brand’s history,” said James Walker, SVP, Restaurants. “We are very excited to offer new customers the 100-year-old classic hot dog, and we are particularly excited to provide them the opportunity to enjoy Nathan’s Famous classic hot dogs while watching the annual Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4.”

This partnership with Eddie Rocket’s will bring two of Nathan’s Famous hot dogs, the foot-long all-beef hot dog and a 75 gram, 6 3/4” skinless all-beef hot dog, to Ireland, bringing the brand's total availability to 12 countries around the world.

Their mission is to serve food fresh, never frozen by using the best ingredients available. They also offer 100% Irish-beef hamburgers that are cooked to order.
