Server was great, Hopcat used to be great, since covid the quality is just above your local Applebee's or TGI Fridays. Crack Fries are still great.

This is a pretty cool bar. We've been there a few times. The atmosphere is great. They're usually so busy that the service is hit or miss. The food is tasty bar food. My only gripe is that it's not gluten allergen friendly. Their best food are burgers and all the burgers come with fries that are have bread coating. There's really no substitute. If you're looking for a cool bar, go here. If you have gluten issues, skip it. There's better options elsewhere in EL.

The hangover helper is literally one of the best burgers I've ever had in my ENTIRE LIFE! The fries are perfectly crispy and seasoned just right, plus the drink selection is amazing! 5/5 will be going out of my way to come back again. We visited for the first time on a very busy afternoon/evening (MSU homecoming game) with 45+ minute wait times for a table and the food still came out great in a timely manner.

Good food, great beer selection, and great service. We tried several of the appetizers on the happy hour menu and they were all very good.

We attended HopCat in Ann Arbor, MI the evening of University of MI 2025 season football first game which was a night game a couple weeks ago. So fun! I've never been to HopCat and that was my first choice for an early dinner. It was very packed like all other restraunts so we got to sit outside in their umbrella table sesting area on a warm late afternoon. So epic! My son is a brewer on West Coast so I'm a brewmaster Mom and loved the beer choices. 🍺 so cool! Awesome place and I will be back soon!! 🏈 💛 💙

The chef makes some really good selections with a beautiful and fun bar theme. They specially do a wonderful, inspiring job of incorporating beer, cheese, and potato.

The beer battered Cosmik fries side with cracked pepper and cheese sauce is good and unique. The honey sriracha boneless wings with ranch are uniquely flavorful. These are a middle sized portion. As a third selection, the really good beer cheese soup is rich and creamy once moving past the beer taste. Without a side fry, the chef generously tops the soup with tasteful potato.

I wish they served a heartier produce option of a side house salad filled with more quality vegetable. Also, I wish to find in more cities honey sriracha fried chicken and beer battered fries. 🐥 🍯 🥛 🍺 🥔 🧀

Best bar food in East Lansing. The Hangover Burger is one of the best burgers I've ever eaten, and the fries have a perfect seasoning on them. Even the salads here are good! Service is fast and friendly, and they are all Spartan proud.

Had dinner before kickoff. Pleasantly surprised how good the service, food, and speed was given how busy. Really well executed. Not many restaurants pull this off well.

Attempted to order on DoorDash and all ordering was closed so we called into the restaurant. The hostess was really nice at first, but took a really long time. We were on hold for a while when she came back she had a terrible attitude took our order. got the order right but the order coming from the kitchen came out terribly Wrong. My burger was very undercooked with absolutely none of the toppings and I paid for the meal and its entirety, as you can understand I’d be really frustrated by this. There were a lot of things missing from our order and the quality wasn’t that Good.
