I have been going to Hugo's for 43 years. Many original items are still on the menu and always been the same excellent quality. Especially love the Derick's Special chicken sandwich and the grasshopper crepe (mint chocolate ice cream wrapped in a delicate crepe drizzled with chocolate syrup). They can be busy, but you can get on the waiting list for seating online and enjoy a drink nearby.

Our favorite place for a burger in Fayetteville. There is usually a wait so plan to walk around or stop in for a drink at one of several spots nearby while you wait for your table- it is worth the wait. Cozy casual atmosphere. Really good burgers.

This was my first time visiting Fayetteville and I was happy we found Hugo's. We went twice and I could have eaten every meal there while visiting. It was so delicious.

How does one encapsulate one of the most Fayette-esque locations in a review on Google that pays tribute to the roots of a city immersed in post-Vietnam Hippie realness, as well as its sustainable Mother Earth vestige it’s enrobed in today? Well, You simply draw an analogous line to a beloved work that includes its namesake and centralizes itself on the shining star of the story, I’m speaking of Victor Hugo‘s Les Miserables, naturally. It’s about the bread y’all!

Not just bread but sandwiches!!! Tucked away beneath Block Street in Fayetteville, this speakeasy-lite location is not your steak and potatoes kind of joint; yet It’s rooted in the hard-working middle class, “Sammiches are life!” kind of establishment. If you don’t whip out your phone with its flashlight feature on, you’re doing it wrong. Primarily lit only by the jubilant red “typewriters” neon sign on the back wall; it’s a bustling den of voices, clanking dishes, and glasses .

I have been coming here since I attended the University of Arkansas all those many many years ago and it has without fail. Been my favorite restaurant without a sour note. Performed during any of the visits my entire time going there. Established in 1977 This restaurant has the cred and clout of a brick and mortar place that can claim its roots in Fayetteville’s illustrious history.

The location is very very small, and you do have to navigate some steps to get down into the subterranean level that the restaurant occupies, but if you can maneuver through the maze of close knit tables and make your way to the restrooms without stumbling into someone else’s spinach dip, then you can do Hugo’s. The bar which runs the entire length of the restaurant is a great location for the casual solo Diner, but you can score a home run. If you catch one of the tables underneath the glass block sidewalk that doubles as one of the only sources of natural light in the location. Or next to the back table near the A4A mentioned typewriters neon sign.

There are a bevy of sandwiches all containing wonderful breads that are thick and robust that the restaurant produces each day, but my favorite and by far the most unique item I’ve ever had is the veggie Reuben. Piled high with sprouts, portobello, mushroom and yummy Kraut, underneath a buttery toasted whole wheat and rye bread, this restaurant gives the Diner an amazing umami treat at the end with a back note of butter sprout and pickle hang time that stays with you long after you’ve polished off the side order of chips and having engaged in any discussion of the bread stealing character from Les Mis, and how she would’ve loved this restaurant had she attended a sorority here.

The food was great. Large portion of fries. Friendly staff. Make sure you are ready to wait for a table. We waited for an hour and a half but it was worth the wait. While we waited we rode the scooters around town.
