We ordered an appetizer, the cheese charcuterie board. When we got it the salami was on the bottom of plate sitting in a bunch of sweet pickle juice and ruined the flavor of the salami. My husband ordered the white fish and the vegetable side with it was maple brussel sprouts. The cook has cooked the Brussels sprouts too long they were all burned and black with no flavor.

Overall, the restaurant was fantastic. The service was excellent, and we had no issues with making or managing our reservation in advance through OpenTable, which worked seamlessly. Upon arrival, we were promptly seated and served our drinks. The entertainment during the food service was a highlight—engaging and well-executed. Most importantly, the food was delicious and cooked perfectly to order. We would definitely return.

Ann Arbor

About the restaurant

We've created a funky environment filled with unique art that pays homage to the city's more psychedelic side. It's completely different from the other HopCat locations -- big enough, but with an intimate vibe. With a small sidewalk patio, we’re located around the corner from the Michigan Theater, Hill Auditorium, State Theatre, Rackham Auditorium, and University of Michigan’s full campus.

We’re known for our award-wining Cosmik fries, which are beer battered, sprinkled with our signature cracked black pepper seasoning, and served with a side of warm cheese sauce. From burgers to tacos, our menu offers a wide range of delicious options.

We live the craft lifestyle - beer, cocktails and even craft food made from scratch. With a dedication to local breweries, sustainability and community engagement, HopCat offers craft beer and great food in a vibrant atmosphere for an inclusive, unforgettable experience.

HopCat in Ann Arbor delivers a fantastic dining experience with both flair and flavor. From the moment you walk in, the décor stands out— unique trendy, and artistically inspired without feeling overdone. It sets a lively, creative tone that fits perfectly in a college town. The food does not disappoint. I ordered the Hangover Helper (sunrise-style cheeseburger), and it was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked, hearty, and incredibly satisfying. The runny egg, melty cheese, and seasoned beef patty all came together in a flavor-packed bite that truly hits the spot. The Lobster Mac was another standout. Creamy, rich, and filled with tender lobster, it was indulgent without being overwhelming. Every bite felt like comfort food elevated with a touch of elegance. Overall, HopCat is a great spot for anyone looking for a bold, flavorful meal in a vibrant setting. Highly recommended!

About the restaurant

Opened on December 13, 2014 (yes, 12/13/14!) in a historic building at the corner of Woodward and Canfield. The Huma Room on the second floor features half of a black 1973 Cadillac Fleetwood mounted behind the wall and an outdoor patio. Located on Woodward Ave, it's easy to jump on the QLine or walk down to Little Caesars Arena, Comerica Park, or Ford Field.

HopCat was founded on the principles of bringing local craft beer a bit closer to the communities we love. We’re known for our award-wining Cosmik fries, which are beer battered, sprinkled with our signature cracked black pepper seasoning, and served with a side of warm cheese sauce. From burgers to tacos, our menu offers a range of delicious options.

Great Tap selection as usual. Crack fries (cosmic) were a hit with the newbies.
