I really enjoyed my experience overall here. After a day with the family we decided to stop here even though it's over an hour away from home. Our waitress was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. My niece who is 1 even loved her she had her smiling the whole time. The only real issue was the food, it was overall good. But the chicken inside of the Cajun Alfredo seemed fake I couldn't eat the chicken, so I took it out and just ate the pasta and it was so much better. The truffle parm fries were a little cold but still had the perfect amount of truffle and parmesan, nothing was overpowered. The Cesar salad was pretty good, tasted like an average Caesar salad. One of my guests had the cowboy burger, and it was extremely pink, so that was another issue that we had. But other than that, they had it remade, and it came out so much better. Whenever I'm in the area, I will definitely stop by and ask for the that waitress again. I'm so upset that I don't remember her name, but she was awesome from start to finish. read more

This place never misses! Ive been to a few hopcat locations and this one is top tier. I got a side salad, the supper wrap, and cosmic fries. The side salad was huge and their balsamic might be the best dressing I've ever had. The wrap was extremely fresh and stuffed with toppings. The ratios and ingredients made it a huge wrap i could only eat half. You must get the cosmic fries with the cheese sauce! They were crispy with the perfect amount of salt and pepper. With cheese sauce its a 10/10. The only weird thing was that the tomatoes were not sliced. I ended up taking them off because it was weird eating whole tomatoes in a wrap. Overall this is an amazing place. Im so happy they opened up by where i live! You seriously cant go wrong ordering anything here i was shocked a turkey sandwich is my favorite thing on their menu lol. Also their service is was amazing! Joy was our server and surpassed our expectations. read more

A big shout out to the team at this HopCat location! From the moment I called to the end of dinner, the staff was friendly and attentive. Our large group (30ish) had a great time dining in this location on Saturday evening. read more

The food is always good and consistent. Having been here a few times I was always treated well, and the selection of beer on tap is extensive. read more

My friends and I love coming here, it's a pretty spacious restaurant so we usually always get a table. I get the Smashburger every time it is so delicious and a pretty decent price. Definitely recommend the cheese for the fries. Food has always come out pretty fast read more

HopCat - Smash burger - Beer Bar Near Me - Clinton Township, Michigan

I've been here a few times hoping my experience would improve.. the service here in the dining room has unfortunately been slow and not the greatest every time. The bar service is a bit better. I ordered the boneless wings with "honey siracha" sauce and it didn't taste good at all. The bangin shrimp was just ok. The cosmik fries are pretty good and I've had their salad before which is also decent. I would say the two dishes I've liked here have been the pretzel nuggs and the stellar brownie. Unfortunately, at least for this location, I probably won't return. It's nothing special and for the likelihood of poor service it unfortunately isn't worth it. I'd rather go to Bubba's 33 across the road for a similar vibe. read more

I joined friends for dinner last night at Partridge Creek. First time at Hop Cat for me. I ordered the corned beef sandwich. How disappointing. The sandwich may have had 4 pieces of corned beef and only one side of sandwich was grilled. Unfortunately I didn't speak to the manager. The rest of the group was enjoying their meals and they all ordered something different. When ordering this sandwich customers should be told that there are better options. I don't think I'll be returning and will share the experience so others aren't disappointed. My mistake I should have taken a photo. On a positive note the bartender made a great Old Fashioned! read more

Decent burgers. Nothing super amazing but good for average food. Will probably go again just to make sure my rating is right.

Came in an hour before close (called ahead asking what time the kitchen was open until before), waited at the hostess stand for a few minutes to be sat, no one came over, even though the restaurant was dead. Finally got someone's attention, got sat, ordered quickly. Took like 10-15 minutes for our drinks to come. Beer was served in a can, lol. Whole dinner order was messed up. I understand mistakes happen, but the lack of service as well as the multiple mess ups makes me super iffy about this place. Food was decent, comfortable atmosphere, but service could improve for sure. read more

Place was quite busy on a Saturday night. Thankfully that take reservations so our wait time was minimal. Service was a little on the hectic side. Not from a food delivery perspective but from a manager coming over and saying our order will be out next and then still waiting 15 minutes for food while watching everyone around us get their food. We probably wouldn't have made a point of it outside the manager coming over and letting us know we were next which we never were. Ordered pretzel bites as an app and they were quite good. The cheese sauce is delicious. Entrees were buffalo chicken Mac and cheese, Nashville hot chicken sandwich and the rodeo burger. Mac and cheese was a big hit. Chicken sandwich was difficult to eat as it was too big for the bun. Negative the breading fell off the chicken very easily. The rodeo burger toppings were very good, can with bacon, fried jalapeño and onion straws. With a cheese, bbq sauce and cheese sauce. The burgers patties themselves were dry and lacked any flavor. Cook was "well done" and most likely were frozen not fresh beef. Fries were good.

My experiences with HopCat have typically been at the Royal Oak location, where everything is stellar. I'm sure it has everything to do with my LGBTQ+ brothers and sisters making it perfect every time. However, we tried the Partridge Creek location this weekend and were extremely disappointed. The food arrived lukewarm, we had no silverware or refills, and the store wasn't as clean as Royal Oak usually is. The biggest issue was the restaurant policy regarding condiments: they now charge extra for ranch and mayo. Because of this policy, our table of four ended up sharing one single mayo for four separate burgers just to avoid the extra charges. We have never experienced this kind of nickel-and-diming at the Royal Oak location. While we still enjoy HopCat food, these policies at this specific location mean we will not be returning. read more

We recently visited HopCat and had a really solid experience overall. I ordered the Hangover Helper Burger, which was decent and packed with flavor. The only thing I'd change is the egg -- if it had been left a little runnier, it would've taken the burger from good to absolutely awesome. My wife had the Madtown Grilled Cheese and her immediate reaction was, "Oh my gosh, this is good." Safe to say, it was a hit. The fries that came with our meals were perfectly seasoned -- crispy, flavorful, and hard to stop eating. We also shared the cheese curds, which came in squares topped with green onion, and they were absolutely to die for. Easily a standout item and something we'd order again without hesitation. They also have an extensive beer selection along with a solid variety of mocktails, so there's something for everyone. Service was prompt and attentive, and we had no complaints there. Overall, a great spot with tasty food and a fun atmosphere. We'll definitely be back. read more

We have come here several times and I just don't think we will be back. It's a bummer because Partridge Creek is losing a lot of restaurants so the choices are limited. We were treated well so it wasn't a matter of service. They have a very nice beer selection. I wouldn't get a cocktail here though. They are very generic and sugary. The food is just gross. I have tried several things on the limited menu. Even the burgers are sub par. If you're ok with mediocrity then it's fine. But there are too many places in the area that are much better. read more

We had been wanting to try HopCat for a while and finally stopped by for the first time. Unfortunately, our experience fell short of expectations. The food tasted stale and was not fresh, the hamburger bun was old and dry, cheese curds tasted like old grease and fries were salty which was quite disappointing. We really wanted to love it, but the quality needs improvement. Server seemed like she's not happy working here, she was ok but didn't smile at all and not really friendly. I don't think we're coming back. read more

Pretty good! Excellent beer list too. The bbq chicken Cobb salad was really good. So was the Reuben but I wish they toasted the bread more. Get a free dessert when you enroll in their (free) rewards program read more

Visited HopCat, Saturday, June 6, 2026. Service was decent. Food, not so much. I had their bacon peanut butter jam burger. The meal presented as a greasy mess. The fries were dripping in grease. I think the cooks simply dumped the fries from the fryer directly on the plated burger. The server made everything right. My wife's burger was raw on the inside and about the size of smashed golf ball. Also, our appetizer came to the table the same time our food came to the table. The waiter was upset but this was not his fault. There is a management issue that is not addressing the poor food quality. We will not be back. read more

This is a new location in Partridge Creek Mall. It was busy when we visited on a Saturday night. We had a short wait for a table. Service was quick and friendly. I enjoyed the ambiance with all the tv's and bright colors. They have an awesome beer list with tons of local breweries from around Michigan. Food was great. I would highly recommend the Pickleback chicken sandwich. It was very "dilly" and full of pickle flavor. Also, the Elote Queso was a great appetizer that everyone enjoyed. Lastly, the Stellar Brownie dessert was soooo good! It was a great end to a great meal. We have visited many other Hop Cats around the state. This one did not disappoint. We will definitely come back when we are in the area. read more

Man this is just not the HopCat I loved in Detroit. It's like its sad estranged step sister or something. The food here is just not good at all. The burgers were greasy, soggy and falling apart. The fries were not the Crack they once were. Its sad because I was so excited for this to open at Partridge but its a let down. read more

Overall a good experience. This place is part of a local chain, I think they've got something like nine or 10 other locations in Southeast Michigan. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and very attentive. I was pleased to see all kinds of crew members making the rounds and checking on things. The beer menu is extensive and includes at least 25 items on tap. This is clearly what they're known for. Lots of local brews and beers from far away as well. The menu is sufficiently varied that everyone in your party should be able to find something they want. I tried one of the burgers and found it to be fine but not overwhelming. If I ever come back I don't think I'll get a burger I will probably try something else. The french fries were a little over seasoned and probably could've been a bit crispier. Having an up charge for a side of ranch was a little frustrating also. It's a large space and they make good use of it. All kinds of fun artwork, good music, and various other interesting things to look at, including a number of televisions. This would be a great place to host a birthday or retirement party. A good experience overall. read more

This was a great spot. Plenty of parking. Nice restaurant, lots of food choices and good beer options. I had a berry sour and it was really refreshing. Our server, Kristin was really nice and helpful. We had a nice half circle booth. read more

We came on a Thursday evening during happy hour and we had a great time! We each got a happy hour drink: husband got a beer and I got a mule. Both were good! We ordered the space curds. They were different than we were expecting but very delicious! They come with a Bloody Mary aioli, which I was not a huge fan of (but I also don't like bloody Mary's) so we asked for a side of ranch to go with it. We were charged extra for the ranch which was annoying. Husband ordered the $9 burger and beer deal. The burger was over cooked for his liking. I ordered the pickle back chicken sandwich and it was very good! The server was great and made sure we had all our happy hour drinks ordered that we wanted before the time was up. We will be back for more happy hour days. read more

I have never been to Hopcat before. We walked in on a Monday afternoon and the sign said 'Please wait to be seated' we waited. And waited and waited. And after about 7minutes sat ourselves. Food was okay. French fries were very salty. I had a turkey Reuben and husband had burger. Every thing was exactly average. Probably wont be back. read more

I thought I'd grab a quick beer while I'm the area last Saturday (1/17/26) afternoon and ended walked out after being ignored by the bartender after a 15 minute visit with no service. I've noted the service level at this location does not compare well to the brand nor service levels at their alternative local spots. I won't be surprised to see if for lease sign in front of this venue the next three years. -------------------------------------------- Hi Kara, thank you for reaching out. I appreciate the follow-up. To answer your question, I was there around 2:30 PM on Saturday, 1/17. From my perspective, the issue appeared to be a combination of staffing levels not meeting the demand of a peak Saturday afternoon and a need for more proactive customer service training. I've always enjoyed the brand, so I hope these insights help the team get this location back up to standard. read more

Stumbled upon the soft opening and everything was outstanding!!! I had the Paging Dr. Rum cocktail. It was not too sweet and very refreshing! The food. All the food was delicious! I can't wait to come back and try more. The Nashville hot chicken was one of the best I've had outside of Nashville! The lobster dip is like a deconstructed crab rangoon! Move over cosmic fries, I have a new fav app at HopCat! Service was some of the best. Everyone we encountered was so friendly and excited for the new opening! read more

It's been a while since we've been to a HopCat location and we attended the soft opening for the Partridge Creek location this past Friday and WOW! They've improved quite a bit! The Royal Oak and Detroit locations have been hit and miss, but I was really impressed by this new location. Started with a nice FRESH M-43 and the lobster dip. Delicious! The lobster dip is served with fried wontons rather than tortilla chips and it was amazing! The sweet chili sauce was also very good and a great compliment to the dish. It actually had heat and wasn't just from a Frank's Red Hot bottle. The Nashville Hot Chicken was HUGE and despite its size, the chicken wasn't stringy or tough. The spice is just about right for the style of sandwich and it's actually an oil based sauce like they do down south. One of the best I've had outside of Nashville. The Bar Zee burger was good as well and I'm glad that all of their burgers are now two patty smash burgers. I've had some hockey puck burgers at other locations, but these were cooked perfectly. The house made bar cheese was great and the bacon was flavorful. The creme brulee cheecake was good, but made me wish we had actual creme brulee. It had all of the right flavors, but was missing the texture. All in all a great spot. Our service was awesome and the food was hot and well prepared. We'll definitely be back after the official opening to try the full menu! read more

First time eating here ! Great place to eat ! Love the lighting , waitress was nice and on top the line for refills and making sure everything was perfected . Service was excellent and the cost is fair read more

Food was subpar and I didnt get that much. I cane with ny two grandbabies . Got a kids cheeseburger and a sampler. Cheeseburger was hard as a rock, it was crispy not the bread the hamburger. Just because they are kids does not mean they dont want a good burger. As for the platter what a joke, the "cheese curds" were bread with maybe some cheese, the corn dogs , which for my grandbaby, they were so bad she wanted nothing to do with them, hard and gross. The chicken was gross, the so called queso was alot of breading and something thick and gross. Pretzels were ok just very disappointing. First time there and last. Dont waste your money read more

We stopped in on Friday to try this place out and were quickly seated. The bar area is very big with many seats, huge plus for me! It's very open and modern and has outdoor seating as well. We ordered food and drinks and everything was great! The appetizer sampler was very good and the amount of beers on tap was simply amazing! I loved the selection of beers, and you could build your own old fashion! Definitely coming back and probably on a Thursday to check out the 9 dollar burger and beer special. read more

Went here just for the Brunch Menu with my mom because it looked bomb and it was! Not sure why it's only available on the weekends but the food and Cherry Dreamsicle was so yummy, we got the Truffle, Bacon, Bagel and the Waffle with blueberry syrup. We also got a side of scrambled eggs. The bagel comes with cosmic fries but I got tater tots so I asked about that and I was able to get them at no charge thankfully. Our server was very nice and we went before noon which wasn't busy. read more

Met a friend at this restaurant and ate lunch outside. Weather was great and not a lot of other customers around so you were able to actually have a conversation where you could hear each other. Ordered the Turkey Pesto Grilled Cheese Sandwich and was amazed at how delicious it was! Had a salad with meal, which was delicious, and could not finish lunch-I was stuffed. Server was attentive without being pushy. Will be back again. Jeanette J. read more

Had a ok experience with friends here! 6:30 on a Saturday and the wait was 30 minutes. It was busy and loud. Our server was nice, normal service. The Nashville chicken sandwich was not spicy at all, but the chicken portion was bigger than expected. The turkey pesto grilled cheese was ok. Pricey for a grilled cheese on white bread. The fries- they make it like some big hype, special fries. They are basic seasoned fries, nothing special! Definitely not worth ordering extra or separate from what comes with the meals. read more

AMAZING food... was giggling and dancing because of how good it was (don't judge) but... the waiter made it obvious that they wanted us out quickly read more

We've been here many times before and majority of the time it's good other than a couple times where food has come out cold. However, tonight was an experience on a different level. The most disgusting restaurant experiences of my life. My daughter ordered the Killer Mac, which she likes and is the reason we come here. When she pulled out the spoon from the Mac it had a dark residue on it. I touched it and smelled it and it was ice cold chocolate sauce. They took a dirty spoon from a dirty dessert plate and put it right in my daughter's Mac and cheese. We flagged down waitress and she offered a new spoon and we explained that the dirty spoon was in her food and she offered to replace the food. She brought what out what we hope was a new Mac and cheese for my daughter and said the manager would be over. A man in a bright green t-shirt that said Trainer came over and apologized. I asked how could something like that happen and he just said he didn't know. The bill came and they did take off $40 of my +$100 bill which was nice but honestly I thought they should've at least taken care of the bill after something this egregious. read more

Waitress was scattered, never even got to order appetizer She kept blowing us off after telling her repeatedly we were ready to order. Not a great experience Doubt we'll try again. We walked out after she blew us off for the 2-3rd time read more

I'll get the good things out of the way before explaining my 3-star rating. Our server was very kind, the food was fresh, both my fish and my chips were crispy on the outside and soft in the inside. My gripe is the overall experience. We got seated right away but after we ordered, we sat and waited on our food for nearly 40 minutes. Server did a good job explaining the situation, but I wish we were told how long the wait would be before we were seated. Because waiting is waiting whether you're seated at a table or waiting for one to open up. If we were told it would be about 55 minutes from when we were seated to when we'd get our food, we would have declined the table. This is why I think it's important for the greeters to not seat people until they're actually ready to be fully served. read more

We have always liked HopCat but their food has really up'd its game. Our kids love the Mac n cheese and tenders. My husband and I both had sandwiches last time.

If you read my review on this place a couple weeks ago, you might have noticed how poor it was which I don't take anything back on, but I will add to something on top of that review when I reached out to corporate I got absolutely no response from them either, not offered up apologies, gift card or nothing after reaching out to them on their website and the terrible experience I had at the Partridge Creek Mall, Sterling Heights location Clinton Township...
