A couple things. I’ve never had worse service. The only girl working was on her phone, didn’t even acknowledge me. The atmosphere is SO dirty as well. Half way through my drink, I realized there was a cockroach in my cup. I was absolutely disgusted. Will never be coming here again.

So I visited this wonderful little coffee shop the other day on my lunch break and I was not disappointed! It has access from the front main street or a large parking lot in back. As soon as you walk into the stoop you feel the charm and atmosphere! This little shop feels much bigger than it really is, simply because of the way it’s set up. The staff were very friendly and helpful to a newbie such as myself. I had a tuna salad crissont with clam chowder soup (which I’ve never had before and if all the rest are as good as theirs I’m a fan!) The sandwich was made to order and prepared behind what was once an old bank tellers counter, complete with bars! After ordering we sat at a fair sized table that was once a large spool for what I would guess would be power lines. The food was delicious, the staff came around and picked up our tray once they had time and the owner even visited us to ensure everything was great! On our way out we picked up a cappuccino an apple cider and a couple of cookies for the road and it was all wonderful! I know I’ve found myself a new hang out. If your looking for coffee in ottumwa, Top Hat is definitley Top Shelf!

Lunch at Top Hat was great! Tuna on croissant and roast beef wrap with a root beer float. Sandwiches are just enough but the root beer float was beyond awesome! Decor is always fun to look though as well!

Met up with some friends at Top Hat the other day. What a cool place! The space is really well done. The coffee and breakfast sandwich I had were delicious. And the staff was great. Support small business! You won’t be disappointed

The owner is a really exceptional person. The owner of this restaurant also owns the soup kitchen behind the building. So by supporting the restaurant you also support with soup kitchen. They serve about 300 people or so a week.

One of my favorite lunch/coffee/business meeting spots in the region. Super friendly and attentive staff with a wonderful atmosphere and attention to cleanliness. The food though is fantastic — rotating DAILY HOMEMADE soups. Love the Chicken Salad Croissant and the Tomato Basil Bisque. I enjoy bringing clients for business meetings here as well. It’s also good to know that a portion of each sale helps run the soup kitchen in the back!
