Cupid's Hot Dogs finds a new home in Longwood

A California hot dog institution, Cupid's which had an Orlando outpost on Lee Road is setting up shop in Logwood.

Cupid's Hot Dogs opened its first and only location outside of California in March 2023 at 1515 Lee Road, Orlando in March 2022.

Cupid’s which runs three locations in California, first opened in San Fernando Valley in 1946 and has stayed largely the same since then, with the brand run by Kelly Walsh, who co-owns the business with her sister, the third generation of their family to run Cupid’s Hot Dogs.

The brand was brought to the east coast by franchisee, Sorot Boyd Chamlongsupalak, who at the time of opening the Lee Road location had plans to open several area locations.

No further locations ever opened, and Chamlongsupalak made the decision to close the Lee Road location on November 21, 2024.

At the time Chamlongsupalak had plans to hopefully open in Casselberry, but a move to Longwood is now the plan.

Details have been posted for the new location on Cupid's website, https://www.cupidshotdogs.info/locations, which lists the new location as 254 W State Rd 434, Longwood, FL 32750.

Right now the Longwood location is listed as coming soon, but it is hoped to have the store open by late April.
