Tops Cafe

Excellent homemade food and the service is fantastic. Cannot wait to come back. This is a truly family owned and cared for. Love this place!!!!!!!!!!

Family run, squeaky clean, wonderful food for a very reasonable price; highly recommended! We have eaten here on numerous occasions over the past couple of years. Wide variety of menu choices, never disappointed!

A great hidden gem just outside of downtown NPR. The decor is nostalgic. The food rocks. I always get the cheeseburger platter which comes with salad or soup and drink. Homemade dressings and unbelievable big biscuits. Chef Harry makes everything from scratch with love and care. He and his family are super friendly and make you feel at home. Prices are fair considering the high quality of food. We are now regulars. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. Open for breakfast and lunch. The new hot spot in NPR to go.

Very friendly place to eat ! It's like Cheers - everyone knows everyone and the food is absolutely fabulous! If your in town - a must stop in with lots of memorabilia to keep you entertained 5*TheCharmed1

Very long wait. Inexperienced server that didn't realize specific food orders should be noted or relayed to the cook (or so we were told). The food for all 6 of us was bland which even a little salt would have done wonders. When one meal was sent back it was nuked to cook the egg yolks. Overall not a pleasant experience and we won't return for a replay.

A friend of mine and myself tried this for the first time and the food was excellent and the service was aboove excellent! I will definitely will be going back! Nice to have a great restaurant within walking distance!!

Great Place to eat! Everything is delicious! Fried Chicken is the best! service is top notch!

Excellent ! So Glad we came there ! We're coming back soon !our friends love it as well !

BIG thanks to the folks who recommended Tops Cafe on the north side of Massachusets, just west of Congress, NPR for fried chicken. We have been to Southern Fresh in Safety Harbor which was good too but over-hyped in our opinion. We also liked Krispy Krunchy in the gas station at Little and old 54, NPR but Tops was just right, not at all greasy and seasoned just right, not too salty. Himself is quite picky about his mashed potatoes and gravy and was happy with that as well. The house made blue cheese dressing for the side salad was soooo good that I want to lick the container clean, seriously. There is nothing worse than restaurant supply blue cheese dressing. We went back the next day, Friday, for their fried fresh cod which was ridiculously amazing. Light batter, not at all greasy, perfectly seasoned and not too salty and the fish inside was just glistening, not dry. The crinkle fries are from frozen but theirs were so well prepared that they were surprisingly good. The chicken fried steak skillet that I had the first day and the tops burger that Himself had the second day were also perfectly prepared. Tops is now definitely going to have spot in our favorite restaurant rotation.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere and it is a family thing when you're there. It's worth the trip there just like being back in the neighborhood I grew up in
