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.

Service by Amanda was fantastic! Filets were cooked perfect. My husband and I split the Ruth chopped salad, garlic mashed potato’s,. and Stuffed Mushroom and Crab appetizer. Everything was delicious. We have been to your restaurant several times this year and always an enjoyable evening. Just a suggestion: Bring back the Lobster Bisque soup.

Loved everything from the food to the service, but the one downfall this restaurant has is the noise level. You’re close in seating arrangements and the acoustics aren’t good so the noise level is high at full capacity. We had a business dinner and it was quite hard to hear at times. Other than that, I love it!
