Great food and service! Had the Loa's fig sandwich with chicken breast. Is was lovely, husband had the Nashville chicken with mac and cheese also very good!
We had a reservation for 6pm. We did not get our food till after 7pm. The food was greasy and overcooked.
First time to Hop Haus. Nice clean interior, early dinner so it was quiet. Enjoyed the soft, big pretzel and the cheese balls for starters. For our meal, we had wings, burger and chicken tenders, fries and chips. The chicken tenders were good sized and tasty. My friend said the burger was great. Everyone enjoyed the chips as well. Will definitely go back.
EXCELLENT SERVICE ABOVE AND BEYOND! Kudos to our server on Sunday, 6/22 and Carlos in the kitchen!! (Sorry I forgot our servers name but she was a tall blonde) I brought my friend’s son who has special needs there because he said it was “national onion ring day” and he wanted onion rings. Our server was so sweet because they don’t have onion rings on the menu, but she went in the kitchen to ask if there was any way my friend could have onion rings. A few minutes later, Carlos came out with a plate of onion rings for my friend who celebrated and said they were so delicious! What exceptional staff both our server and Carlos were to make my special friend’s day! THANK YOU! Highly recommend Hop Haus in Berlin!
We ordered the appetizer of the potato balls and the inside of the balls we're cold. The meals were just “okay” nothing that I would crave as the steaks had no seasonings or flavor. Was a bit disappointed in the overall meal.
Good food, great voices of beer, service was slow (ordering, attentiveness), sitting near the window meant that the music was loud. Food delivered promptly and very tasty. We will be going back.
It's a shame that I find myself writing this review considering how much I truly enjoy the food here at Hop Haus. My friend and I come for the bison burger and sweet potato fries almost religiously. However, I can't tell you how many times I have come to Hop Haus (this has happened at both locations - Southington, and Berlin) hungry, and I am told that the kitchen is closed. The hours on the website to not coincide with the live kitchen hours, which is incredibly confusing and misleading. It seems like the kitchen closes at a different time every night.
Last night my friend and I went to the Berlin location around 8 pm on a Sunday. We sat at the bar and was eventually greeted with menus. We already knew what we wanted so when the bartender finally came back so we placed our regular order right away. She came back from the kitchen several minutes later while laughing, telling us that the kitchen is cleaning up and closing so they were unable to make our meals. I found this incredibly peculiar after spending 20 minutes sitting at the bar, and placing our entire order with the bartender. We were offered drinks for our trouble and time, however there was absolutely no follow through, and no sense of urgency. We left very upset and hungry to go find a burger somewhere else.
Unfortunately, I will be choosing to not come to Hop Haus anymore; which is a shame, because they make my favorite burger and fries. But it's always a risk when I decide to go there.
Best burger i ever had.
Limited menu. Service is almost non-existent. Seated at the table and waited almost 30 minutes for the server to acknowledge us. No water offered, no acknowledgement, just walking by us. Once meals are served, no return to check if we needed anything or order correct. Left the area not to return. Was able to get the attention of another server. That server noted our needs but didn't help just had to wait for our server. The whole process took over 2 hours for a hamburger and pulled pork meal. Will not be returning. Loud music makes any table conversations difficult.
Beautiful look , exercise food and great service.
May be my favorite location but not the closest location for me.

Went for dinner, the appetizers, food, drinks and desserts were all great for me and friends. Great service and atmosphere.
We've been many times, and it's always been fantastic. Different takes on a few items, and I love it!
Food is so good! Worth a stop. Bison chili is amazing.
(Last visited March 13, 2025.) I've visited Hop Häus quite a few times and have managed to check out a variety of dishes both before and after the legendary Von Hurd joined the squad. Here's the summation of my experiences here.
Atmosphere/Appearance: I love the vibe in here. It's so open, chill, laid back and it's a really come-as-you-are sort of place which I definitely fancy. The music is a bit upbeat, there's a private parking lot, the staff are friendly and take good care of you, what more could you want?
Food: I won't go over all 15+ things I've had here, but I'll highlight a few of them. The Nashville hot chicken sandwich is delightful. Tender, buttery, spicy and satisfying. The wings here are good, but you have to be careful. Depending on who's in the kitchen, your wings will come out really dry or tender and juicy. That is an inconsistency that's not okay in my book. I hope they've figured that out now. My favorite flavor is the Buffalo Blue that gives you a bit of spice with mild creaminess. I was also a big fan of the Bison Cast Iron Mac & Cheese, but could use some hot sauce on that thang! Lol. The Garlic Parmesan wings are a bit dry... and lacked flavor, but not everyone can get those right. Overall, the food here is solid. I haven't ventured much into the entrees since I tend to stick to wings when I hit up places like these.
Value: Very affordable. It's a neighborhood bar/tavern so you won't break the bank here.
In conclusion, you'll see me here more often! I love the craft beers they have on tap, the wide variety of menu items and just the atmosphere that makes me feel like family. Check this place out!
Met with friendly staff, great food and great cocktails ... staff accommodated special requests without any issue at all and we're pleasant throughout out our stay. Food was over the top!!! You'd be hard pressed to find better than what Chef Van puts out for the $$$ ... we've much spent more for nowhere near as good ... we WILL be back!
