"Aside from sounding like a maddening candy dispenser, Loco Pez successfully pulls off the dive bar meets Mexican restaurant atmosphere. At their West Philly, Graduate Hospital, and Fishtown locations, you’ll find people drinking cheap margaritas like they don’t have three meetings tomorrow. And to soak it all up, many of them go for the street dog—it’s bacon-wrapped and comes layered with pico, jalapeño, black beans, ketchup, mayo, mustard, and shredded cheddar. It’s spicy and messy enough to create an avalanche of toppings on your plate after the first bite. But it’s a flavorful combination that makes it the most dependable item on their menu.
