Value, taste, cleanly, historic, left me full for 20 hours. I highly recommend Tops BBQ for your next catered event, takeout or this Poplar location is perfect for a small gathering. For less than the cost of a cheap, chain drive-thru, we can all support a family owned business and get some Southern homecookin'.Kid-friendliness: This location is the perfect setup for a small gathering of people for a kids party
If u want missing food every time go to this location. They deserve 0 stars.

Great service! Clean restaurant including tables. Quickly served, good food. This place has improved a lot!Parking: There are about 12-15 parking spots right beside the restaurant. Employees park a little further away in a different lot.

Tops is becoming our new place for fast food. We probably go at least a couple of times a month. The first couple of times I went, I said to myself, I wonder how long it's going to take to get thru the line with a couple of cars already in the drive-thru but to my surprise, they were really quick and the food was hot & fresh and the order was spot on. We were there again tonight and I just have to give a good shout out to them again for being awesome again. Thanks TOPS and please keep up the good work.
The value for your dollar is crazy here. The food is always incredible and service is always kind and fast. Anyone rating this place below a 5 is drunk.
We stopped in to try Top's for the first time while there were having a lunch special. We arrived at 1:12, and ordered two of the special (sandwich and fries) to-go. While waiting, we watched 5 people that came after us get their food before us. We noticed a tray of food in the window for quite a while, before asking at 1:32 about our order. "A server" (the manager) put our sandwiches in the bag and they were cold. They also forgot to give us the fries. After asking for the fries, I asked the attendant to tell the manager about our cold sandwiches and it was the original server. He exclaimed that the cook just put the sandwiches in the window, and then turned his attention away from us. Not only were the sandwiches cold, but the meat was hard and not very flavorful. I am truly disappointed in the food and service and do not think I will be returning.

The brisket and cream cheese breakfast sandwich is outstanding. It deserves just as much love as their burgers. Top notch!
After the snow melted, I struck out on foot, and found myself at Tops, on Poplar, for the first time.Used to the Rhodes store,on Getwell, or the Summer store, thus one was clean, and the service was great.Since I was alone, I opted for the counter. To ny right, against the wall, was several bottles of both Ketchup and sauce, all still sealed.I grabbed one from a table behind me, and had one of their great burgers.When it took my lyft an unusually long wait, there was no pressure to move.Definitely a good time, and I plan on returning.
Meat was dry, tasted like it was old. Slaw didn't taste like what you would get at other locations; different and not quite as good.

In town from Texas with my husband, he has never had Topps Barbecue. It will be our last. The place was not busy. Went through drive placed our order, received it in a decent amount of time. The sandwiches and the fries were cold. My husband was extremely disappointed. He and I will never patronize your business again.
