Excellent food, service, and vibe. We went for the first time today when passing through Bozeman . We were pleasantly surprised. Upon entering, we ordered at the counter. We filled our drinks just around the corner from there. Then, we proceeded to walk upstairs to a very cool dining area, where there's also a nice bar. Our food was brought to us and it was yummy. I had the 3 roasted chicken sliders. Others in our party had the Frychos, BBQ, bacon melt, and a ranch bacon melt. It was all very good. I would definitely eat here again whenever I'm in Bozeman. read more

Well we were looking forward to trying this place for yet another food opportunity. As we walked through the front door there were no tables or chairs. On further examination we realized it was all UPSTAIRS......UP TWO FLIGHTS OF STAIRS!! NO ELEVATOR!!! I am 80 and my wife is 76. Not a good start. We were told that you order here where we came in then HEAD UPSTAIRS and our food will be brought to us. ODD..... OSHA would love this plan......NOT!! Now to the food. This place is mostly a bar with a wide variety of beers etc. Their food is exclusively chicken. Not bad but very average. All in all our experience was disappointing to say the least. Probably for a younger crowd. read more

Hosted an event on the second floor of Hop Lounge as an alternative to other local venues. If was a good space with accessible AV and great acoustics. While there was not a dedicated server (this would have been a nice touch) the unified was fast and met expectations. They have a great assortment of beer/libations and a very knowledgeable barkeep. read more

Hop Lounge is amazing. Stopped here on the way back from Tubing at the Madison River. It looks like they're building a master plan community around this. You order food downstairs and then go upstairs and order your beer on top. There is a bathroom downstairs upstairs. There is a huge inside area and also a patio. Food hit the spot! We got to pick two sauces each and a side with our sandwiches. All great! It's counter service and not table service so you don't feel smothered. Just a delightful stop. read more

Staff wasn't really helpful when ordering when asked of any recommendations and the only answer you get is depends what you like and a blank stare. After you order you go upstairs and find a seat and they bring you your food. After finding a seat at a table we waited for the table to be bussed and no one ever came or apparently didn't hear us or care the two times we asked. That being said it's a pretty loud place but it was to be expected as it was more of a bar setting. They have lots of beers on tap and plenty of tv's to keep you busy while waiting. The food itself - the chicken was pretty good along with the barbecue sauce, the rice was good, and I liked the slaw but they do warn you that it's a vinegar based slaw which if you don't like vinegar you'll want to choose something else. I'll probably give it another go some time down the road. read more

For $18 this is what I got. Considering you can get a half chicken for the same price, I figured I'd get a little more food than this. Wasn't super stoked to try what doesn't seem like much more than rotisserie chicken on rice, but this sealed the deal. Not good. Don't try. read more

Beer list and quality is exceptional. Service terrific. 1/2 chicken melts in your mouth. Side salad super fresh Ingredients and house ranch dressing delicious. Best meal I've had in Bozeman. DJ was spinning great music. read more

Ok...4.6 stars. Huge beer selection. Bigger than anything in Oregon, except maybe a beer festival. The sound was way too loud to hear anything. That was a definite minus. You have to order the food from downstairs but they don't tell you that ahead of time. They don't even have the downstairs menu!!! I'd love to come back in the summer when you can sit outside and enjoy a conversation without all the noise. Cheers read more

Beer selection and atmosphere are on point. Food needs some work. The breaded chicken sandwich was the most disappointing attempt at a chicken sandwich ever. Certainly won't be ordering it again. Mac n cheese is just a boxed Mac n cheese and the baked beans are Busch's. If I come back I'll stick to the beer and won't order any food. Not worth it. read more

Have been here many times always excellent. Today was the complete opposite. Came in no music no ambient noise, just the guy next to us chomping his nachos open mouthed. Not the Hop Lounges problem. Ordered food like normal and took a little longer than we are use to. No one from the bar came to take our order. Food came still no drinks. Asked the waitress who brought the food and she said "well we are busy." Walked to the bar got the bartenders attention and ordered drinks. Sat down to eat and the chicken sandwich had rock hard bread and cold fries with no seasoning. Not warm not warm ish, cold. Had to go back down stairs to ask for new ones. Just dropped on the table no apology. Several people around us having similar issues. One table even chanted to go to "Korner Klub" as they were leaving without service. Three stars because we know they can do better. Likely won't be back to see if it was a fluke, or like so many others, the level of service that can be expected. If you do come sit at the bar so they will serve you. read more

Really cute restaurant and very friendly staff, but only average food. The mac and cheese is pretty good and so are the fries, however I was disappointed that the chicken was very dry. I'm surprised because the place only sells chicken. When it was hard to swallow my sandwich because of how dry it was, even with ranch, it made me a little sad. read more

Cool person working the front. Place was clean. Yet, since they were closing soon I was told I only get the last bit of fries they had vs dropping some more. So I was pretty sad about that read more

The chicken sandwich, crack Mac and the decision between fifty (50) rotating beers that are served in wine glasses sometimes passionately kissed my tongue's frontal lobe. Chic and classy yet casual vibe. You could be best dressed or hungover wearing your pajamas. Nobody gives a f@%# The entire staff is cool as $hit and the beer tastes like it's straight from the teet of an angel ok? read more

Excellent selection of beer on tap and really good food, the place has a good vibe and is really cool to enjoy. I want to go back and try other items both on the huge beer menu but also on the food menu. I'll definitely be going back. read more

Had the pleasure of visiting Hop Lounge on a Sunday. Enjoyed the football game and a cold beer. Julie, served not only the coldest beer in town but was kind, friendly and provided other recommendations around town! Nice atmosphere as well read more

Absolutely recommend this local place! The food is phenomenal. Service is just as good! Very simple! All the chicken is freshly made daily and melts in your mouth. The baked beans are so good. They have 50 taps upstairs after you order your food. Highly recommend trying a couple of the local brews. Support the locally owned and operated business! read more

Excellent local Beer selection Excellent rotisserie chicken. Why 3 stars and not 5? Definitely need some vegetable dishes for the side choices for the rotisserie chicken meal. I'm a big fan but I don't go to Hop Lounge when I want Veggies which is usually what I want with my chicken meal. I'd go more often if it was offered with the side choices. How about roasted Broccoli or Brussel Sprouts or Asparagus. Something green besides the salad. You can upgrade to purchase an excellent salad but not having really good veggies as an option reduces the chicken meal from a 5 to a 4. I give 2 stars for the chicken sandwiches. They taste good but they are waaaay to small for the price. I felt like I didn't get my moneys worth. The bread for the sandwich was okay if you like plain white bread that isn't even lightly toasted or grilled. How about an upgrade to something more interesting and flavorful. read more

Best beer variety we've found in Montana! Also some out of state brews. Fun ambience. There is a separate chicken restaurant down stairs that will bring food up to you if you want as well read more

Kind of a weird setup but I can see it's a great place to get a beer I had the grilled chicken salad and it was more like shredded chicken. I give the food 2 stars read more

One of my favorite spots in Bozeman. Beautifully designed, tons of wonderful beer options (try the peanut butter cup, if you see it on the menu), as well as delicious food (try the frychos), and great ambiance. read more

Top place for food, beer and ambiance in Bozeman. Simple menu but everything is made from scratch. The sauces are the best around. You won't find better food unless you go to a big city. read more

What a great spot! Probably one of the best in Bozeman. You can order delicious chicken downstairs and then come upstairs to a swanky little spot with a great patio. They had about 50 beers on tap (mostly local which is awesome) and our waitress Julia was freaking AWESOME! Can't wait to come back here. read more

Enjoyed our lunch sitting on their upstairs patio with fantastic views! I appreciated the labels on all their sauces so I knew which were gluten free and their tap selection was great. read more

Went here after several coworkers had recommended it. All their food is chicken based for protein. I had the chicken, bacon, ranch (sandwich, roll?) with Cajun fries. It was delicious. You order downstairs and then go upstairs for a table. In the case you don't get food you can just go upstairs for drinks. They have a lot of local brews and good variety in their offerings. Prices were comparable to other local places. The upstairs was a little dark if that is something you don't like. They do have a couple large screens so you can watch any games that are on local channels. Overall good food and drinks though probably not a place I will frequent super often. read more

The food is excellent and inventive and the cajun frychos are all the reason I need to go back many times. The tap room ambience and the best beer selection I've found in the area yet knocked this place out of the park. read more

Nothing special in terms of food and the service is beyond bad. Salad came with no dressing and the chicken was pretty dry.

I love the beer selection, atmosphere and chicken here. It's something different and we enjoy going there when we get in a car and go somewhere beyond downtown. read more

Hop lounge has amazing chicken and beer! My husband and I absolutely love coming here. Staff is always friendly, food is always delicious. My only bad thing to say is that the 80's music does not fit the vibe of the place. And it happens to play a lot. read more

We live in Gardiner so it is always hard to choose where to eat and have a beer when in Bozeman. This is a new favorite! Food was great and the beer selection is awesome, and mostly Montana beers. Got to try some new and had plenty of our favorites too. Staff was super friendly and the atmosphere is pretty swank! read more

How self-absorbed does one have to be to openly tell the public you refuse to pay living wages to your overworked staff during a pandemic? You're charging $17 for a sandwich. Surely you can scrape together a few bucks for your employees rather than purchasing your newest Tesla. read more

Spending a few days in Bozeman on vacation. Found this gem !! Amazing chicken tacos, & sliders. Large selection of sauces to go with them. Wide selection of MT beer. All the employees were very friendly & service was great. Bar has a nice relaxed vibe. Definitely a great find !!!!! read more

Great food, great beers, and their chicken is to die for. Also a great atmosphere. Been coming here since they opened and as a beer enthusiast it is great spot to find solid beers, but also they do a great job with their chicken and sauces. As a Bozeman local, it is one of my favorite spots. One recommendation newbies is their floor service is poor so best order drinks from the bar when you get empty or send someone to request service. They get a little folksy and forget to check to check on groups. Pandemic hiring. What can you do...? read more
