Pop-A-Top Sandwich Shop — Restaurant in Gainesville

I work downtown and use to leave the office and travel for lunch. I use to see all my co-workers frequent pop-a-top for lunch. One day a co-worker suggested I try the soup. I tried it and it was absolutely divine, on that day I had the chicken noodle soup. I'm not sure what they use for the base in this particular soup but it is to die for.

I sware l see the staff at pop a top more than my roommates they are the best....

The place is owned by the same people who own The Top Restaurant. The place is convenient and good for a quick drink or meal. The food is a bit overpriced and is not as tasty as it looks. Overall, it is a fine place to eat and I suppose the price is ok for the "fanciness" of the food. But I prefer to go to a sit down place for the price.
