“ I stumbled across The Hat during a quick day trip to Chicago. I needed to grab a meal before I hit the road back home. I grabbed a delicious chicken sandwich, fries, and a drink and they really hit the spot. Service was very quick and the restaurant really gave off a great local vibe. I'll be back for sure. ”
“ I love the hat so dearly that as I write, I am sitting in the window eating 2 chicago dogs, crinkle cut fries, and a diet pepsi all for $10. Shout out!!!!! ”
“ Tremendous "true" Chicago street food. Dogs, Burgers, Polish, Italian Beef and Sausage. Other stuff, too! Fast service. Comfortable inside seating I enjoy it. ”
“ good service fresh food, parking available. christmas music, clean house too i'm having the egg & pepper sammy ”
“ I'm originally from California and I had to see if this was the same as The Hat that we have. It isn't. They serve a large variety of griddle food that reminds me of a cafeteria (with better quality!) My husband got the italian beef with spicy peppers; he loooved it. We are not italian beef experts by any means and basically love all italian beef sandwiches. I got the grilled chicken club which came drenched in honey mustard. Messy but delicious. We also had chili cheese fries. Come here if you need your fast food fix! ”
“ Spotted this place right after clubbing on a Saturday night. Definitely made the right choice because this place definitely hits the spot in terms of after-clubbing food. The food takes a little bit but that's because the chefs/cooks are cooking everything fresh. Appreciate their service a lot! Plus their menu is pretty vast, so whatever you're craving in the moment, they got it (especially the Gyros). Definitely the ambiance was really retro and felt old school with their booths, I loved all the neon signs and felt like a cute little after drinking hangout spot. ”
