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.

    Had dinner here on a Friday night of a football weekend, so place was packed. Party of 3 - we all had burgers, fries and a side. Really good food and service was quick, even with the large crowd. Will definitely come back - good spot in Ann Arbor.

    The space can feel cramped on a busy night but it was a tad slow and made for perfect ambiance. The food is always incredible and I appreciate that the menu is updated frequently. The chef brings a really nice Vietnamese flair to the dishes. The broth with the mussels was SO good that we asked them to save it for us, which they happily did and sent some extra bread for dipping once we got home. Apparently this is a common request! Wife went with cod and I had the soft shell crab. The flavors accompanying the cod were strong enough to hold up against a red wine (Malbec, in this case) as the wife prefers reds but it can get tough to pair with lighter seafood. Server was the perfect amount of personable while giving us space to enjoy. Will make a point to come back soon!
