Historic Seligman Sundries, Arizona

The building known as Historic Seligman Sundries stands on Route 66 in Seligman, AZ. It went up about 1905 as Pioneer Hall, a theater and dance hall, became a drug store with a soda fountain in 1930, and spent many years as the Sundries curio shop and coffee house. That shop is gone: the building now houses Highway Hot Dog, which serves hot dogs, espresso and gelato.

What is Historic Seligman Sundries?

This is an early-1900s building on Route 66 in Seligman. The name on the building, Historic Seligman Sundries, belongs to the curio shop and coffee house that filled it for years. That business has closed. Today Highway Hot Dog fills the space, serving hot dogs, espresso and gelato.

History of Historic Seligman Sundries

Pioneer Hall went up about 1905 as a theater and dance hall, used for dances, plays and school events. In 1930 it became a drug store with a soda fountain, Dancehall Ted's Fountain, "Famous for Malts." Later it ran for years as Historic Seligman Sundries, selling curios and coffee. Highway Hot Dog took over the building after the Sundries closed.

Visiting Historic Seligman Sundries: tips

The building is right on the old road. Stop for a hot dog or a coffee, or just a photo. The Copper Cart is next door, the Rusty Bolt and Angel & Vilma's gift shop are about 0.1 mile away, and Delgadillo's Snow Cap is about 0.2 mile east, so park once and walk.
