Wienerschnitzel opens first military location at naval base in San Diego
US-based hot dog chain Wienerschnitzel has opened its first restaurant on a US military base, located in the Navy Exchange food court at 2260 Callagan Highway in San Diego, California. The outlet operates under a contract with Navy Exchange Service Command (NEXCOM) and serves the full menu including chili cheese dogs, junkyard dogs, chili cheese fries, jalapeño poppers, burgers, and soft beverages. The opening is part of Wienerschnitzel's push into non-traditional franchise locations, following recent openings inside Walmart stores. Chief development officer David Winter called the milestone exciting and noted the brand's ability to thrive beyond traditional restaurant models. Wienerschnitzel currently operates 340 franchised restaurants across 13 states with over 30 additional units in development. The article also notes that Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers opened its first military base restaurant earlier in 2026 at Fort Lee Army installation.
