Earlier this year it was reported that a popular North Shore spot known for its Chicago-style hot dogs was closing down, and now we have learned that a new eatery is opening in its space, and it will also be serving Chicago dogs.
A Facebook post confirms what a source told us a couple of weeks ago, that The Salty Seagull is going to be opening in Beverly, taking over the former Scotty Dog space on Rantoul Street. The post gives some information on its plans, saying the following:
Joseph and Eric business partners in a few different small businesses including a restaurant in Hampton Beach are taking over the old Scotty dog which will now turn into The Salty Seagull. I'm doing some Consulting for them. Finishing up on the menu now which will include some Scotty Dog favorites, Vienna Beef Chicago dogs, Garlic burgers, Maxwell st polish, Italian Beef & Lobster rolls with Lobster meat from Ipswich shellfish which I have used in my past life as a Executive Chef. Dedicated team ready to continue great food and great service just like The Scotty Dog!!
In February, Stephen Scott announced that The Scotty Dog would not be reopening and that it had been sold.
The address for The Salty Seagull is 437 Rantoul Street, Beverly, MA, 01915.
[November 17 update: According to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, The Salty Seagull is now open.]
