The Hat began in 1951 as a small roadside stand in Alhambra, California, specializing in pastrami dip sandwiches. Its iconic retro neon chef’s hat sign and generous portions quickly made it a local favorite. Over the decades, The Hat expanded across Southern California, earning a devoted following. Known for its "World Famous Pastrami," it remains a nostalgic staple for classic fast food lovers.
