- First, I’m not here to judge you, eat there if you want. But remember that Memphis has Gus’s. And Pirtle’s. And Uncle Lou’s. So, just decide if that’s the decision you want to live with.
- Be tidy, the staff isn’t to blame for the fact that Nashville is always trying to foist their “too cleaned up” and “just a little better than you” establishments on us. The staff is just making a living. So don’t make it harder for them to do their jobs. Just a little smellier.
- You’re gonna need to bring your own graffiti implements as the management doesn’t seem to think that we should be writing, “s’ok but Gus’s better” or “Pirtle’s livers 4eva” or literally anything one might find on the wall in the women’s room at the P&H Cafe.
- If you decide to eat the Hot Chicken you’ll want to wait or come back to use the bathroom at Hattie B’s. It’s only fair, if they do that to you, you should do it in their bathroom.
- The bathrooms are labeled with pictures of a “chick” marked with a “W” and a “cock” marked with a “M”. No one understands which bathroom is for which gender, so just use either. I mean to paraphrase the great poet Gertrude Stein, “a toilet is a toilet is a toilet is a toilet”
- When doing your business at Hattie B’s it is customary to give the food a loud review explaining every aspect of its flavor, mouth-feel, and presentation. Only add a review of the service if it was good. Those folks work for almost nothing. Just remember, the dining room is loud so you’ll have to compensate.
- They didn’t build a stage for music, which we find strange, the place comes from the “Music City”, right? Well, since Nashville is so fond of their Honky Tonks, just set up in one of the stalls. They can’t kick you out, if you’re pooping.
- Put your shoes back on.
