Kent D.

I had to try Cookout which is a Greensboro staple. The food was really inexpensive, which is a plus, especially in an area that has a lot of college students. The food was nothing to write home about; however the milkshakes are really good.

I wanted a mint chocolate chip milkshake and went into the cookout and ordered two. I got the drinks and they both looked like a chocolate milkshake. I asked them about it but they said that if I mixed it I would see the green??? I went out tasted the shake and boom its chocolate. I go back inside and tell then its just a chocolate shake (cause u know mint chocolate chip is green and got chocolate chips in it) and they take it back and fix it for me. Turns out after 5 more minutes of waiting they bring me back the same drinks with some green syrup on top...... still 0 chocolate chips, still same chocolate milkshake.... I just wanted my mint chocolate chip milkshake. Rip

Really?

Food good, nothing special, just like any other cookout. On the other hand...ordered a milkshake and clearly the cup busted before leaving the store and they thought a receipt sticker would do.

Carolina burger with Cajun fries and cheese bites

Been coming here for years. This one happens to be near my new house. So glad they have the "Walking taco". Sometimes you come to a cookout and they don't have it. Got a typical Carolina burger with the Cajun fries and cheese bites. Delicious as always. I tend to come earlier so they aren't precook if burgers. Shake was a chocolate with chocolate chips and cheesecake. Yeah I know.... It's all diet food. Everything was great and the cashier was super friendly.

No chicken in my chicken bacon ranch wrap
Caleb B.

I order a chicken bacon ranch wrap with no ranch add barbecue. There's no chicken, just chicken lettuce and barbecue sauce. They were polite when I was there but I didn't notice till returning to work with no time to make it right. Called and got no answer.....No chicken is devious work.

Not the cheesecake in my cheesecake milkshake.
Briana H.

This is the closest cookout to me, but it might be worth a drive to avoid it the future. Last time I went there was a small piece of plastic in my milkshake, but I took it in stride. Accidents happen. Today there's a whole piece of... something. It's unacceptable.

On recommendation from my son, checked this place out. Packed on a Sunday evening but wait time was…read moreonly 10 minutes. Our server Bronny was great. She was literally hoppin' it was so busy but did a good job of keeping up. She helped me find items on the menu that fit my dietary restrictions. Nice vibe, laid back, loud. Parking isn't great limited onsite but there's plenty of additional parking across the street. The best menu! There's SOOOO many things I want to try. I mean, a variety of different fries are you kidding me? My friend had the spicy goat burger which she said was good: if you don't like messy don't get it because the sauce is very sticky and she said there needs to be more sauce on the burger. I had a customized salad which was huge and delicious. The salad was too big for the size of plate though. The dressing was a house made roasted shallots and was yummy. Outdoor and indoor seating. Not in Greensboro often but I'm coming back here!

Finally got back to Hops. This experience was underwhelming. I tried to eat here the night before…read morebut was too crowded. Since I was driving back by on my home the next day, had a late lunch. Arrived around 3pm on a Friday and sat at the bar. Given the hour, it was fairly quiet. Weird experience, bar was wide open. I went to the bathroom and when I came back, someone decided to sit in the seat right next to me. Why?! I must comment on the service. The barkeep got me a menu quick and I ordered a water. During my meal, my water sat empty for 5 minutes or so even thought I counted 8 staff members behind the bar. Given the time of day, it was not busy. I ordered onion rings (as a side) and the Bacon Jam burger as it came with the "cordon Bleu" fries. The onion rings stole the show. So good. The fries were not my jam. Low quality cheese sauce with lunch meat ham that was diced. My fault, I should have subbed regular fries as I don't like stuff on my fries. I was expecting it to be a seasoning. My mistake. The burger was good not great. I got the 12 oz size and learned it is 2 fat 6 oz. patties stacked. Makes it VERY tall. The description of this burger is shown in one of my photos. Again, it was good but the flavors just did not pop. Wish I got the French Onion burger. Next time. :-) I do recommend!

Want a high end fine dining level burger but in a casual counter order joint? This is your spot!…read more I can't say enough about the quality of the burgers they make here. But first, let's talk about the amazing sides. Crispy tots, hand battered onion rings, and a mac n cheese to blow your lid off...these were the bomb! But the burger took this place to another level. The meat is tender and cooked perfectly. I'm a medium rare steak man, but I like my burgers at a solid medium. They cooked it to perfection. A tender and thick patty with an amazing crust. The kicker is the smoky flavor you get throughout. Add in a fresh brioche bun and amazing toppings, and you have a perfect burger from top to bottom. And they're not short on variety either. If you can think it, they can make it. Great location with plenty of parking and a super friendly staff. This is only a 10 minute drive for us so we'll be frequenting this location quite a bit now that we've tried it. You won't go wrong with anything here.

I decided to swing by this second location since we were around the area. Did not disappoint! I got…read morethe ring of fire burger and oh my. Delicious I must say!

Our server was able to take our order quickly and it did take longer than expected for the food to come out. Also, we were seated pretty close to where they were running food so it was a high foot traffic area. I really loved the veggie burger. It was so much better than your boring, generic veggie patty. I could have that veggie burger every day. My fries did come out cold, but they were able to bring me some hot fries. Also, fun fact, the pinball museum, which is just a couple doors down has a special deal for people who are waiting for their table at hops so they can pass the time that they're waiting by playing some pinball. Super cute idea to do a date that involves pinball and hops in my opinion! Even though my last visit wasn't perfect, this place is reliably good and I would definitely recommend it.

There is both indoor and outdoor seating (although space is definitely limited) & a small bar with bar stools. There are a few TVs that always have sports --- right up my alley! I love coming here on Saturdays during cold weather for Chicken 'n Dumplings. Their weekend mimosas are a great deal (it might just be Sundays, but I think it's Saturdays, too). Their sweet tea is always on point. They have delicious sandwiches and the side salad with homemade honey mustard dressing is my favorite side!! The tater tots are good. Pasta salad isn't super flavorful but, still good, especially if you're entree needs a side that takes a back seat. You really can't go wrong. Parking is limited so you might have to find street parking and walk a bit. I hear Sunday brunch is amazing! That's next on my list to try.

Today I stopped in for a to go order, but next time I plan on enjoying the patio with my pup Ziggy and try one of their burgers. I ordered the Madison Avenue which is a croissant smeared with honey walnut cream cheese, smoked turkey, and granny smith apples. My side was slaw and I also ordered fries with a side of ranch. Upon walking in the place appeared clean, the customer service, not the best. But maybe someone was having a bad day, I get it. I'm so glad I did check my bag before I left because they did not give me ranch or plasticware, man I would have missed out on some amazing ranch. The young man gave me three ranches which I'm so disappointed I only grabbed one. Unfortunately I didn't get the best pictures but the food tasted great. The fries were thick cut (probably frozen) and let me tell you, I would just come back for the ranch! They have my favorite restaurant ranch. The slaw was really tasty - good ole southern sweet mayonnaise slaw, not too vinegary. The sandwich, not bad, good combo of toppings, they paired well together. I' ll be back. Anyone want to go for a patio lunch? Ciao for now
