A trip to the Hat is always a treat, even if it means immense food coma afterwards. Do NOT go here if you are committed to the healthy trends. If you feel like throwing health caution to the wind, go to the Hat, order a Pastrami Dip and add something like their Chili Fries. Watch them slide your order down the string and then pick up your order minutes later at the other end of the counter. Your stomach will thank you for it!

You’ll find this Hat just north of the 210 on the West side of the street. This particular location is one of the cleaner and larger Hat properties. It is easily accessible and has plenty of seating inside.

Yes, I’ve been to Langer’s among other purveyors of fine pastrami. And I continue to maintain that The Hat’s pastrami can’t be beat – just fatty enough with plenty of flavor. Their fries aren’t the best, but their onion rings are great! And the roast beef almost outshines the pastrami. And they serve it on fresh french rolls.
