This is one of my favorite restaurants! They are very careful with dietary restrictions. I have Celiac Disease, and have never once had an issue here. The staff is extremely knowledge and always take precautionary measures. Will definitely be coming back soon! read more

Why can't people cook anymore!! Frozen greasy nasty onion rings it's the same dam onion ring you get anywhere else. Chicken noodle soup no broth cold salty. Grilled cheese no cheese all meat on one side old nasty bacon it just blows my mind $50 later and you leave pissed off. I would have been better with a can of soup and making my own grilled cheese. You people just keep eating this crap. read more

I was visiting Spokane and a friend suggested this restaurant. The food was excellent but the service was horrible. A member of the staff promptly seated us and went to get our drinks. The server came to our table at the same time the girl returned with our drinks. The server seemed perturbed she had done that and began questioning her. She was apologetic and left our table. We were not ready to order and asked for a few more minutes. There was only one other table occupied and the place was slow, yet the server didn't return to take our order for at least 15 minutes. He kept walking past and ignoring us. When our food arrived it was delivered by yet another server. We wanted refills on our coffee but couldn't get anyone's attention. Finally when we asked our server he never returned with it. We finally asked a different server and she brought it. We finished eating and sat there another 10 minutes and our server never returned to remove our plates or bring our bill. Finally I went to the register and asked for it. I can only imagine what the service is like during peak hours. .. we were there after lunch was well over and there were only two occupied tables including ours. If you do decide to try the food make sure you order take out and skip the sad service experience.... read more

What a terrible experience. I went with my 8 year old son . My son got his beverage right away but mine never came . Our food came rather quick! My order was completely wrong so they took it back . They were gone 10 minutes but it was wrong again when they came back ! I waited another 10 minutes . My son was done by then but had got a refill of his drink . I still didn't have mine . No offer of a free dessert or % off . Just bye! I can't imagine ever going back. read more

Hey Yelp Fans, Yes, I know it has been awhile, so here we go. For you NEW fans, you know that I only give ONE or FIVE stars. You either have it or you don't. I have HAPPY to say that traveling to Spokane, the hotel recommended Hops and Drops. What you say? Yes, I have never heard of it either, which intrigued me. First, the staff is SUPER Friendly and KENNY is AMAZING! I have the most wonderful conversation with him and he alone is worth the visit. The food is Great. I have the Roast Beef and it was delightful. They have the coldest beer in town - Go there and find out why and I have the Peach Drop - SUPBERB!! read more

Just average. Average food, average service. Having the door unlocked to the outdoors during winter is a bad idea. The entire time we were there it was FREEZING! Too many other options out there to consider going back. read more

Tasteless food. Boring. I won't waste another dime there. The drinks were watered down and ridiculously expensive.

This place has always been great, we have really liked coming. Today we went and I decided to get a Caesar salad that was good, but was like 10 bites max. I even got the larger portion not the side salad. It was so small and so expensive for what it was. The staff was friendly and the place seemed clean though, so 3 stars. read more

the service was really good however, the chicken from my sandwich gave me salmonella :(

First of all, get the Huckleberry Lemonade. As a lover of any kind of lemonade, this was up there with the best! Moving on, my girlfriend and I are absolutely the most indecisive people when it comes to finding a place to eat out. If we haven't chosen a place before we leave the house, chances are that we'll just end up sitting in the car going through yet another tortorus cycle of "I don't know, what do you want to eat?" until we get bored and finally just end up getting taco bell for the 4th time in a week. But not this time! After spending some time walking around the mall, there came the dreadful question, "where should we eat?". A quick search on Google and Yelp returned few options, one of which being Hops & Drops. Having never been, first we had to find it. For those of you who don't know like we didn't, it's on the back of the mall. Keep driving around the mall until you see Nordstrom Rack. It's just across the street from that! The menu is extensive so we were lucky they had the Fiesta Platter for their May special. The street tacos and nachos were fantastic and I'd definitely get either again. Oh, and definitely get the Tempura Veggies!! The Zuchinni is amazing! read more

I wanted to visit this place a second time before reviewing, so here goes. My first visit I had draft beer and Fiesta Mac and Cheese. I think the beer was Mac and Jack's, but it has been a while, which is of course the danger of waiting to write my review. :) The Fiesta Mac and Cheese was really tasty and had some kick to it, so if spicy is not your thing, think twice before ordering it. This last Thursday (12/3/2015) was the second visit for my wife and me. I was in the mood for mixed drinks, for some reason, and started with the pineapple mojito. It was, in a word, delicious! I also enjoy the gimmick of serving the drinks in a "glass" made of ice. It is different and it keeps the drink cold. Since I like to try different menu items, I resisted the temptation to follow up with another pineapple mojito, opting instead for a White Gummy Bear Martini. It was a little sweet for my taste, but I can't deny that it was still pretty good. Nancy and I ordered nachos from the Appetizer menu and they were decent. They could have been more generous, but the taste was fine. I have enjoyed both of my experiences at Hop Jacks and will return. This time, our server was Alissa, and she did a great job. It was quite busy, and she was attentive and fun. read more

Hops n Drops - The pineapple mojito at Hop Jack's. Delicious! - Sports Bars Near Me - Spokane, Washington

My favorite hangout in Spokane. Can't emphasis enough how good it is!! The Valley Mall Hops & Drops is my home base, but Northside Hops is fun too. The Valley Hops has a great staff, from bartenders to servers to cooks, all are exceptional. Happy Hour(s) is 2pm to 6pm EVERY DAY; and the HH food is awesome. Great selection of ice-cold beers on tap, and they still free-pour all mixed drinks, making the best cocktails in town, by far. (Most bars have gone to measured pours and/or gun drinks, so this is an important point). A Quick Tip: If you go to the Valley Hops, and you like whiskey drinks, ask the bartenders for "Tony's Tea"... A great concoction I came up with (I get every time), I call it a "poor man's Long Island". An awesome inexpensive drink that you'll love! Try it at Happy Hour . The food... All items are tasty, and good portions. Their French Onion soup is fantastic; street tacos, wings, delicious burgers; as well as great pastas and other traditional fare. They also feature always changing monthly food specials (such as Irish food in March). Servers: Casey, Kayla, Kim, Mitchell, DeVonte... Best in town! They tend bar AND serve; always a pleasure to chat with. Everyone seems to love working there. And it's apparent in their attitudes, always nice, friendly, and fast. Bottom line, Hops & Drops is by far, my fav place in Spokane. We go there a lot because we enjoy everything about it, and I think you will too. BTW, we have been to two Seattle/Everett area Hops & Drops, and they also are exceptional places as well. It appears they have a great culture, and treat their employees with respect. It's apparent. 5 BIG STARS. Highly Recommended!! Amendment: A note about any bad reviews... you should discuss it with a Manager. They would gladly correct the meal to your satisfaction. Give them another try... You won't regret it! read more

My fiancé and I went here for dinner last night because we had a gift card. Wasn't the biggest fan, just another casual burger place. I understand that food is getting expensive especially because of COVID, but I think $7.50 for a small bowl of French onion soup is a bit steep. The cheese was layered about a 1/2 inch and was too thick for my taste and a bit difficult to cut through with a spoon. Also wasn't quite sure what was going on with the sliced baguettes in the bottom of the bowl. Again, a bit difficult to cut with a spoon. Sadly, wasn't "the best FOS I've ever had." read more

My wife and I have been here several times whenever we want an experience above Red Robin. However, this time I got the "Monster French Dip" and it was everything but monster. It was two tiny triangles and tasteless with no Swiss cheese and a weak semi-warm a-jus. Stick to the classics like chicken strips and burgers at this place. read more

A favorite when we visit Spokane. Always tasty. Always filling. Always good service. I love the unique take on classic favorites.

Travelling. Looking for a place east of Spokane that was open late and had decent food. I ordered a burger with tots. Husband had hot sammy and homemade chips. I was pretty pleased with my mushroom burger. He was not too pleased with his order. Said it was greasy. Expectations, but we both needed 5 additional napkins to wipe the grease off our fingers. The Ds Baked Apple Cider made my night worthwhile. On draft and yummy. read more

Got food poisoning from the wings. Probably weren't cooked fully through. Hope to not experience that again

I've been here about 5 times and each time the staff has been upbeat, attentive, and professional. I have had zero issues with my food and drink so far and it has always been good. The last two times this place has been slammed but the crew here handle it well. I usually sit at the bar and I watch the kitchen and wait staff hustling through the chaos non stop. Its pretty fun to watch actually. There are plenty of TVs which usually have ESPN playing. The bathrooms are usually clean and well stocked. Today the trash can was over flowing with paper towels. read more

Always great service . The beer is the coldest in town. I always get the street tacos.

After eating at the North Side Hop Jacks I had high expectations for the valley location. They did have good happy hour specials and an attentive wait staff. It was surprising, however, after getting an excessively sales like pitch for their burgers that they didn't have sliders on the menu. The flat bread is delicious, the fries so-so and the burgers are typical. Good but not great. The thing that will keep me from going back is the bathroom, with it's shared unisex sink in the middle. No thanks. read more

Hops n Drops - Great happy hour. - Sports Bars Near Me - Spokane, Washington

Excellent food! We ordered via delivery with DoorDash, and the food in big clear plastic containers, wrapped, and placed in a nice big bag. Everything stayed Hot, and the salads stayed cold. We ordered a guacamole hamburger and a turkey sandwich that were excellent. I also recommend the garlic fries. The food was read and delivered to our front door in less than an hour. Seriously though the Burger was one of if not the best burger I ever had. We will visit or order from again! read more

Nothing exciting but the food is decent and the service is good. What brings me back are the weekend breakfasts that aren't overcharged as "brunches" like many places and as a night shifter I appreciate the food and the cocktail selection read more

My girlfriend and I have gone to this location twice now. Both times we have received excellent service, even on a busy Friday night. I love that there are so many choices of food! This restaurant is fast becoming one of our favorites and we will more than likely be frequenting this location. Thanks for the service and the food! Oh, their lemonades are amazing too!! read more

Hops n Drops - Peach and Huckleberry lemonade - Sports Bars Near Me - Spokane, Washington

I'd score this "middle of the road" The service was amazing, the food was better than average. Is this a chain? Is this a local restaurant? The menu was expansive and very well put together. Their food wasn't bland, but it did lack a WOW factor that you might get from other restaurants. We'll be back again, simply because of the service, but equally because of the range in the menu! read more

So not good! We went there with a group prior to seeing a movie. I had fish tacos and my husband had fish and chips. The fish was overly breaded and one of my husband's pieces was burnt! The tacos were edible, but very bland and unremarkable. The breading overpowers the fish. The tacos were served with lots of plain tortilla chips - what am I supposed to do with those? The huckleberry lemonade was very sweet, with a bit of red syrup and some desiccated berries. The fries were OK; no complaints about those. I'm going back to Ivars - way quicker, cheaper, and the fish is not buried in breading. read more

Shout out to Gerald the best server at Hops n Drops. He's been holding it down here giving amazing service since it was Hop Jacks. Move him to management ASAP. If you come here ask for Gerald he will take good care of you and your family. read more

Great beer selection which always helps...but the food is so so in my opinion. I mean it's fine but not amazing. Good things about the place is the staff is always on point and there is ample space at the bar. I just wish there was something on the menu that would keep me coming back! read more

Love the drinks the grapefruit drop is the best. We have eaten here 5 times & almost always 4-5 stars. Service was great, best fries, cheese sticks are really good & my husband loves the Mac & cheese with bbq pork. Big portions and good tasting. Definitely will go back again & again. read more

Not at all impressed with my first and only visit here. The home made chips with huge bubbles of cooking oil inside were the lowlight of the night. Nothing can adequately describe how disgusting a mouthful of cooking oil is. It was gross, to say the least. Unfortunately there's not much else about our dinners tonight that can help make up for those chips. My bacon burger was soaked too... you guessed it... oil from the chips. My wife had BBQ Mac. She described it as "ok" but far too salty. With dinner a bust we tried to order dessert. The waitress recommended the donuts. Big mistake! Have you ever had an oily donut? Don't! Apparently this place likes to serve everything swimming in oil. Update--. I responded to the manager who commented below. He sent me a private message. I responded with my contact information that he requested and I never heard from him again. I'd say the problems at this place bleed cooking oil from the top down. read more

The star of the night was the shrimp appetizer. My husbands French dip had zero flavor, my street tacos were super bland, the salsa was bland, the guacamole tasted bland. We dumped salt, pepper, hot sauce... you name it and it didn't help. We will try them again to see if it was just an off night. Service was great however read more

I really enjoyed lunch here. I had the teriyaki burger and sat in the bar. The atmosphere is nice, tv's for sports and music playing but not to loud so you can maintain a conversation. I usually stick to a Bud Light when I have a beer but decided to try the company's branded wheat beer. It was delicious! The only downfall was the price of my wife's strawberry lemonade, it was over $5 which I thought was a bit steep. read more

Delicious food, fast friendly service and staff, clean and spacious. They communicate well!

Always good food and quick service. Great place to eat with the kids and the prices are reasonable!

Everything started ok and went down hill. Our first server was really nice, then she traded us to another server, and he was really nice, then he gave us back to our original server, she was still nice, then she traded us again to a new server, who started off nice and then turned not-so-nice. If our food was right and things went off without a hitch, I really wouldn't care who took our order or brought our tarter sauce, but lots got messed up in the hand off and we were treated poorly. First, our bone-in wings came out boneless, which we let go. Then, our hamburger had cheese on it, which we told our server and she corrected, but our kid had to wait for a new burger. Also, our quest came with about twelve tortilla chips, which was hardly enough. Lastly, when we first got there, we told our original server we had a birthday at the table. She said, "I have good news, we don't embarrass you and sing, and we give you a free desert." Sounds great, right? WRONG. When we were done eating, our server (the third one) asked if anyone wanted desert. I said we would just do the birthday desert. She said, "we don't do birthdays here." I said, that's not what our first server said, and our third server said, "no she didn't say that, that's not right." I said "yes, she did, she said we got a birthday desert," and server number three said "you don't get a desert, we don't do birthdays." We went back and forth another time or two. It was awkward and weird, and instead of checking with our first server (the one who said we got a birthday desert), she just told me we were wrong and that was it. She should have asked server number one if she told us we got a dessert. We used to love this place but we will not be back. We can over look the mess ups on the food just fine, but to basically be told we are liars is too much. We spent ninety bucks on some messed up dishes and a side of humiliation. It was really embarrassing. Apparently they didn't just change their name, they changed their customer service standards. read more

Service was exceptional! Very extensive menu (something for everyone). We had burgers and salad and great kids lemonade!! We'll go back for sure. Oh and the wife loved their Happy Hour!! read more

What a fun little place! Got to watch Monday night football here and have a couple nummy drinks with my GIGANTIC burger! Ordered the fried pickles and I definitely recommend getting these! My tummy was very happy after this visit. Not too busy and didn't take too much time either. Very satisfied. My drink came in an ice glass which was pretty cool! Service was good and food was great! Thank you Hops n Drops. I will be coming back! read more

Came here based on Yelp reviews. The first server was nice and informed did a good job explaining the menu. That was the highlight of the meal. I ordered the fish and chips which was a mistake. The plate came with a huge bowl in the middle. I could not even see any fish. Horrible presentation. I moved the bowl aside to find a few pieces of soggy fish. Probably the worst fish and chips I have every had. I would not recommend this place and will never go back. read more

Ate here today and must say it was average at best. My food was decent and came out in a timely manner as well as the rest of my party's. I will say this, kids Mac n cheese is not to a child's approval. I agree it was a little richer of a taste so we asked if we could simply switch to chicken instead and keep our fries. Well the kids chicken strips look like they were dehydrated, very thin. The bill finally came and of course we were charged for both. Wasn't the most pleasant experience, I've never been somewhere that wasn't accommodating to kids. read more

Glad they finally opened one in the valley! Happy Hour 2-6. Mushroom Swiss burger and fries was outstanding! My husband and I shared one and were quite satisfied and full! Staff is amazingly friendly! Great place to dine and go to a movie afterwards as it's right by the Regal cinemas. read more
