Late night eaters are going to have to find a new all-night hot dog stand on the Near West Side.

  • Allen Ross the filmmaker lived right across the street when Jim’s was at Halsted and Maxwell. I remember going there around 2am with my cousin and friend one cold winter night. For some reason we didn’t get any napkins just wax paper. There was also a rumor that the sauteed onions were actually shredded cabbage. It seemed a lot more dangerous back in the day. Homeless men in wheelchairs roamed around and fires were lit in metal barrels to stay warm.

    UIC is notoriously erasing Chicago history, first the Maxwell street market which for decades was a Chicago tradition and now Jim’s? The people need to speak out before they decide to take the kitchen sink too.
  • Only place to get a beef polish, car fresheners and a pair of socks at 3am

    When I lived in Chicago, this place was a late night must have. Granted, I was in my 20's and out at the bars. Still better than Denny's, and I simply do not understand what a 5 hour window would curb crimewise if Jim's has security. 🤦‍♂️ I miss the food, but I'm glad I don't live there anymore.

  • If you're not going to punish the criminals then that leaves only the law abiding to suffer.

    Here is my question why are they still paying rent all these years they could have bought a building and left that location not making sense to me enjoy
