Enjoy Fair Foods All-Year Round At This Unique Southern California Restaurant

Jane’s Corndogs in Newport Beach offers classic fair foods year-round, providing a nostalgic experience for both locals and tourists.

Who doesn’t love a trip to the fair? From the animals and shows to the rides and games, its a fun-filled day for the entire family. And let’s not forget the food! Adults and children alike love the fun and delightful (and deep-fried!) foods that are generally only available at fairs, festivals, and carnivals. If you agree, we have good news. Jane’s Corndogs serves up traditional fair foods in Newport Beach, with all of the classic fair favorites in one place year-round.

Jane’s Hotdogs is located on Newport Beach’s Balboa Peninsula right at the base of the Newport pier. Whether you are a local or a tourist, Jane’s will make you feel like you are a kid again.

Order and pick up at the old-timey counter with its cartoon-picture menus and bright colors reminiscent of every fair or amusement park you ever visited.

This is a nostalgic spot for adults and year-round food fun for kids. You don’t have to wait for a yearly fair or a traveling carnival to enjoy all the classic foods, from pretzels to hot dogs to churros.

Hand-dipped corndogs deep-fried to perfection… go ahead and indulge just this once. Go crazy and add an order of French fries. The menu also has chili-cheese dogs and fries if you are feeling extra hungry!

Some of us wait all year to get a fresh funnel cake covered in powdered sugar, ice cream, or berries… or all of the above. Wait no more!

Where else, aside from the fair, can you get chocolate-covered frozen bananas? Remember how exciting these were when you were a kid? Jane’s also makes chocolate-covered ice cream bars topped off with rainbow sprinkles or chopped nuts.

This is a great place to grab lunch or snacks on a day at the beach. After hours in the sun, come by for a delicious fresh-made lemonade (or cherry lemonade if you’re feeling fancy) or an old-fashioned milkshake.

Nothing says carnival, fair, or amusement park more than fresh, fluffy cotton candy!

Jane’s has great hours for tourists and beach-goers. Open til midnight on weekdays and 2:30 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, you can take your time enjoying the area and stop in for a midnight snack, dessert, or coffee. The restaurant only accepts cash, so come prepared. Planning to spend the day in Newport Beach? Check out this one-of-a-kind gondola cruise in Newport Harbor.
