The Hat

Pasadena icon The Hat is known for their heart-stopping pastrami , but it may be best put to use atop a loaded mound of fresh fries . Read more

Eating here reverts you back to days of infancy. The pastrami and lettuce explode everywhere. This requires a fistful of napkins. Heaven forbid you dollop it with mustard . Wear a bib! Good though :D

While I enjoy a classic grease bucket burger , The Hat has taken the idea to the extreme. The picture shown is a single order of onion rings which came in the brown bag stuffed to the brim.

Yes, these are fries covered in a warm, cozy blanket of pastrami and cheese . What about it? Grab some fries at 491 N. Lake Ave. in Pasadena.

If you're going to order the chili cheese pastrami fries you better bring three people or be a linebacker lol

Pastrami dip ! Old-school atmosphere and mid-century style. Fair prices . Clean !!

Food is SO good, make sure you either are VERY hungry or will be sharing the fries and onion rings with at least 2 other people!!!

Pastrami Fries - Yes, these are fries covered in a warm, cozy blanket of pastrami and cheese .

Get the pastrami without dip and mustard and pickles . Small fry feeds the table.

Wear your hungry Hat here! BBQ beef is my favorite.

Get pastry with wet fries and alittle extra gravy on the side also stay away from the BBQ it's not that good and if get the chile cheese fries get some mayo it's really good =D

Burgers , Fries , and Sandwiches are fantastic! Hard to choose just one.

Everything is fracking enormous. ...except the drinks. The drinks are two sizes smaller than anywhere else in America.

Make sure to share the onion rings or chili cheese fries with 2 other people. The servings are huge.

Great fries , burgers and of course pastrami .

When ordering the chili-cheese fries , ask them to put the cheese before the chili . Doesn't sound like it would make a difference but it totally does!!! :-p

Just had the BBQ beef sandwich if you're gonna do it grab plenty napkins. Next time I'll just stick with the pastrami sandwich .

Get the Chili Cheese Fries . Then hit the gym . Before it's too late, but if u don't, it's still worth it.

If you get the chili cheese fries plan on sharing them. Orders are big enough to feed 4 and oh so yummy!

Everything is too large and too fattening. I didn't even feel satisfied after lunch . I just feel gross.

Fuck this location, they won't add pastrami to a grilled cheese sandwich because they "need an ok from the GM" won't be back here.

Burgers are crap
