  1. Alas Top Hat, I knew ye well.

    Nothing better on a cold Winter’s night than a Top Hat sandwhich, big breast bones & all in two slices of loaf bread, spicy, greasy and gave that warm glowing feeling…

    I remember eating chicken at the Top Hat during the late 60′s and throughout the 1970′s after choir rehearsal with the FYO (Friendship Youth Organization) on Thursday nights. The Top Hat sat on the same lot as Friendship Baptist Church, the Rev. Willie H. Smith/ Rev. James Carter, back then. The Top Hat chicken was our version of Popeye’s chicken today with some extra spice to it – delicious! My mother told me that great aunt “Aunt Willie” worked at the Top Hat as a cook and took part in creating the spicy batter for their famous chicken.
