Great food, good service, fun ambiance. The salad was huge with so much chicken and an abundance of dressing, and the burger was delicious. Our server wasn't too familiar with what they had on tap, but we ended up with a local dark beer that hit the spot. read more

This place is a staple in the area. But for me it was okay. It does offer great vibes. But the service was a little questionable. We came in and we were a large party but it took them a long time to get out order out and we had to wait until all the other tables had been served before we got our food. It came out just before I was about to get upset as we had been waiting for almost an hour and with nothing on the menu requiring a long cook time I had started to be frustrated. However the food was hot and it was good. And during the wait it gave us time to talk amongst ourselves n connect with others.saw some past classmates and got a chance to catch up with them. read more

The best hamburger I've had to date in West Tennessee. You may have to wait for a table, but it's worth it to enjoy this cozy/hole in the wall restaurant. Servers worked hard and took good care of us. read more

Tried fried Catfish at multiple area restaurants ... this is best hands down - better than Reelfoot in my opinion

Mehhh. My personal experience was probably only around a 2-2.5, but we came with a large party and it seems like I fared on the worse side of things, so I'll rate a 3. My in laws and I were in town for an extended family reunion. We were looking for a place to have lunch before everyone gathered later in the afternoon. Originally we were just gonna DoorDash something to the hotel, but after finding our options kind of limited, we decided on this place because they had sandwich/wrap type options and an extensive selection for drinks, per the concierge at the hotel. Even on a Saturday, they were able to accommodate our party of 8 quickly. It's a large restaurant and very open. As many others have noted, it is extremely loud inside even at half capacity, such that it can be a little challenging to hear party members. The atmosphere gives fairly standard bar/brewery vibes. Supposedly they have a lot of beers, but they were out of the kind of beer my father in law wanted. I will give major credit to the waitstaff. It did take a touch long for our food to come out, but overall the waitresses were working hard, and maintained a pleasant and professional demeanor even after a touch of razzing from some of the older folks in our party (sorry, y'all!) The food sadly wasn't anything special. Three out of the 8 people got the wings, and that seemed to be okay at least. Husband gave them a 3.5/5. The fries he ordered with them were also just okay, unobjectionable but not noteworthy. My brother in law got some kind of Buffalo chicken sandwich and really didn't like it. Husband tasted it and agreed it was lacking. Basically no flavor to the chicken tenders at all. I had the southwestern quesadilla with sweet potato fries. Neither wowed. The peppers were cut too large and were watery and cumbersome. The ingredients were distributed kind of oddly, so you'd get bites of just cheese, or just chicken, or just peppers, rather than a coherent whole. The sweet potato fries had basically no flavor at all. The honey dipping sauce that came with them improved things a bit, but I still felt very lukewarm about them. On the other hand, my husband's aunt also ordered them and really liked them, so YMMV. Personally, I'd probably try another spot before returning here, but options are a little limited in this area so this may be your best bet depending on what kind of meal and atmosphere you want. Lots of people say they have great burgers here, so perhaps try one of those. read more

Great crab legs. We got the crab leg special and they were easy to eat. Server was on point.

Always great food, service and atmosphere. Great place to hang out with friends and have a great meal.

The best fried and grilled catfish in TN. Yep... I wrote it. They have the BEST. Always perfectly cooked and breaded to perfection. Great service from the staff, always friendly. Wonderful place for group events and large gatherings. And FYI.. The Salmon is even better if you can believe it. read more

What can I say about Hops and Barley, it's a pretty good burger place. The next time I'm in the area I'll be stopping back in. We had a pretty big group that went in on a busy Saturday night mixed with kids and adults. The server did a great job taking care of our group and all the needs. I was a little reluctant at first about this place because of other places like Hops an Barley, but soon I found out that there s no other place like this! Hop and Barley are in a class by themselves. If your looking for a good burger at a good price point stop by and give them a try. Living in Arizona and Los Angles for the past 15 years I really thought I had the best that was out there, until now. Oh last thing, I personally like it but some may not it's noisy in the restaurant. read more

Came here with some friends and got fried pickles, fries, drinks, and burgers to go around. This place is pretty decent and the price is good for the food. Service was very friendly and over all very nice. The place is a little busy and can get noisy, but it's nice place to get a bite to eat at. Will be back. read more

Awesome food, service and atmosphere. I was surprised. Small town, family feel. I got the grilled shrimp. My daughter got the fish taco.

The food never disappoints whether it was burgers ,chicken ,or fish. The service is adequate. And the atmosphere is chill.

I went because the Yelp reviews were so good. As everyone else has said, the place is very loud. The burger was good but it needed some seasoning. The beef itself was bland. It must have been obvious that I was from out of town because the bar staff seemed to know everyone else around me. It was more difficult to get a drink refilled than the people around me who were regulars. Probably won't be back anytime soon. read more

Oh. My. Gosh. I'm no stranger to unique food you guys know that. But today was my first time at hops and barley. I got the mashed potato burger and queso mac and cheese on the side. It was so good. So. Good. Now in my personal opinion I'm not a huge brown gravy fan so I asked for no gravy but I think the mashed potatoes would go well with either country gravy or queso. Either one. Again personal opinion. The wait staff was very nice and everything I tried was flavorful, including the okra which can get greasy quickly if it's overcooked in the fryer, thankfully the chef knew how to make okra and the root beer was good too read more

We ordered the dinner hamburger steak with peppers, onions and cheese and it was fantastic. The baked potato was very well prepared. I also ordered their large "Delux Bloody Mary Drink and it was fantastic. It had severe green olives, three shirmp, a large piece of fried bacon and a pickle on top. Oh and I asked for spicy and it was medium though I'll ask for double spicy next time. Cheers!!! read more

Food was so yummy! Service was great too! They even had my favorite beer that most places do not serve.

What a fun place. We watched a close baseball game during our meal. We had a group of 12 people riding our bicycles along the New Madrid Fault. They had a great selection of food. The server got our orders right and the food came to us quickly. My pasta was delicious. BUT, most important. I left a jacket there and they went above and beyond to get the jacket back to me. read more

There chicken salads are very good and a decent portion definitely an entire meal. Love the crab legs. The drinks are very tasty.

Sports Bar type restaurant with better than average food. Shrimp Alfredo is especially good. The Negative is that it's fairly loud at times. read more

Had brunch there today and it was excellent! I never eat brunch there but they have revamped the menu. Loaded breakfast tots! Great comfort food! Tater tots , bacon , cheddar cheese, white gravy, bacon and a fried egg!!!! I got mine with a scrambled egg. It was awesome! I didn't eat supper til 8:00 tonight and it was just a salad. Rickey always waits on us good and is very friendly. We keep going back and we are never disdisappointed. read more

Good food and a good atmosphere. I've tried several of the things on the menu and have enjoyed them all

A must go! A local restaurant and bar that is definitely the place to be. They have many burgers to choose from along with some secret ones too! I recently tried the spinach pasta and it was delicious. It came with a salad and garlic bread on the side. I got the half portion and there was still leftovers. Everything we have tried has been good. The staff is friendly and helpful. The bar is fully stocked and has great, cheap deals. Be sure to check it out next time you are in Union City! read more

Biggest issue is that it's just too loud. Sound is not well controlled in a place they can be so busy.

Got a recommendation from a buddy to check this place out and definitely it was a good choice. The menu looked good I could eat a lot of the food on it.I ordered the Mac n cheese and the spinach artichoke burger. The Mac n cheese had queso in it- good little kick but I wouldn't eat it again. The burger was good! Maybe would have liked to have it seasoned more, but the spinach artichoke dip on the burger as like a sauce was a great idea. I can't wait to go back to this place and eat a burger again. read more

First timer. Recommended by the employees in the branch I was working who said it was their go to place. "Everything on the menu is good!" they said with one saying the fish tacos were her favorite; and another, the steak. I try to avoid fried food during the week while on the road. I was pleasantly surprised at the options I had. The grilled catfish and grilled asparagus with a side salad was my choice. Was it the best I've ever had? No, but I cleaned my plate and I was very satisfied. The catfish was a hearty portion; lightly grilled and tender. The hamburgers around me looked more to be the staple but I definitely was pleased with my order. The list of beers were impressive and diverse for a small divey place. I didn't venture out much instead trying a Budlight Orange served cold with a juicy orange slice. Might be a new fave. With friends or like me, a road stiff, this is a good place to stop in if in Union City! read more

The food is good. I had the lemon pepper wings. They were dry rub and I prefer wet lemon pepper wings, but I just asked for some melted butter on the side and all was good! Sweet potato fries are yum!!! read more

The area is not known for great beer tap list. So, this place having three or four craft beers on tap is a home tun. Place is loud. I heard they have great burgers but when I ordered the brisket burger I got a brisket sandwich. No sauce except a side of honey. Boring and no smoked taste. I was told the sweet potato fries are amazing but even they were nothing special. So, the place gets a higher rating then it should just because for the area it stands out. read more

Great food as always. Very friendly and the service is great but this place is loud. When they first moved into this building we quit going because of the noise. Heard they had added a dividing wall and it was better. It is better but still loud. That's the common comment I hear on the place. Great in every way but just to loud. They need something to dampen the sound. So, it's 5 stars on everything except the atmosphere aka noise. Oh yeah, they have an awesome burger menu. Things like deep fried burgers! I guess we could just order takeout..... read more

Got a burger and a side. Both were good. Had a ridiculously hard time getting our check to leave. Waited almost 30 minutes

It's an ok place. The service is good. Friendly staff. I've been there twice. I had the boneless buffalo wings the fist time. They were really greasy. The second time I had a big salad with chicken in it. I didn't care for it at all. Mostly just lettuce. I may try them again some day and order a burger to see if it's any better. read more

We always like to try the local food when traveling versus chain restaurants. I read reviews on this restaurant and chose this one to try for dinner and decided that we would not be back for another meal. The food was just ok. Our server kept getting changed out as they were moved to other tables so we never knew who our current server was. My kids had to eat half of their dinner with no drink and their cups were empty when the food was brought to our table. The server said she would be right back to refill them but we had to ask 2 different people before they finally were refilled. The biggest issue we had with this visit was the number of non working people that kept going in and out of the kitchen. I am sure it was family or friends, but there was a table of 6-8 that were eating and all but one of them were in and out of the kitchen constantly, including a baby being carried by someone and small children. With Covid running rampant again you would think this would be discouraged. read more

Great burgers. Meat is so good and the buns are like Hawaiian king rolls and so yummy. Got side salad (instead of fries, although there waffle fries are great), the salad was simple but yummy and good thick ranch read more
