Quik Dog was originally conceived during the pandemic and built around Trick Dog’s core food items. Now, after a long incubation period, Quik Dog has found its first permanent home in the San Francisco Giants’ new Mission Rock development, just south of the ballpark on McCovey Cove. This location will have a full kitchen and bar that both sports-watching cocktailers and burger-eating families can all enjoy in harmony. The inspiration behind Quik Dog comes from our mission to tap into the craving for the familiar, without sacrificing our creative values. Quik Dog is a modern rendition of the classic burger and hotdog joints from your youth, a casual experience infused with a level of culinary care and innovation that makes it stand out.
