I stopped by HopSaint Brewing Company for lunch on Friday to celebrate a coworker's engagement, and I'm so glad they introduced me to this hidden gem! I drive by this place at least once a week and somehow never noticed it. I ordered the chili on my coworker's recommendation, and she was absolutely right--it was incredible. The flavors were rich and delicious, the portion was generous, and it came with cornbread that was the perfect complement. I left completely stuffed and very happy! I'm not much of a beer drinker, so I tried one of their guava seltzers (I wish I could remember the name!), and it was refreshing and delicious. The service really stood out as well. Our waitress was exceptional--friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. She made great recommendations and handled our group effortlessly as coworkers arrived throughout lunch, greeting everyone with a smile and making sure we were all taken care of. Overall, this was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'll definitely be back to work my way through more of the menu. Highly recommend! read more

Visiting as an out-of-towner, I wanted to love HopSaint, but given the price point, the overall experience fell short of expectations. It's not terrible by any means, but it's hard to justify returning. The menu features some nice Southern-influenced dishes you don't typically see at every brewery. Highlights and thoughts on what we ordered: Green Beans Appetizer: Easily the star of the table--perfectly seasoned with a great crisp crunch. Other Starters & Mains: We also tried the Brussels sprouts, chipotle wings, duck gumbo, and the daily flatbread special (tomato and burrata). Everything was decent, but for the price, nothing blew us away. Famous Brisket Dinner: A bit of a letdown. It came strictly with coleslaw and no additional sides. The flavor was fine--middle of the road overall. Between two 4-beer flights, we sampled most of their standard and hoppy lineup. They clearly excel at West Coast IPAs. However, the pricing structure on tasters feels steep--$6 for a 5oz pour of their Double IPA is tough to swallow, especially when calculated to cost more per ounce than iconic Pliny the Younger, which most places charge a dollar per ounce (when distributed). To cap off the 3-star rating, the 4-pack of IPA I purchased to-go was canned two months prior. Any craft beer enthusiast knows hoppy profiles fall off noticeably over time, and a brewery should really be prioritizing fresh inventory for retail sales. Total damage came out to around $200 for two adults and a child. For that price point, the value just wasn't there, leaving us feeling like something was missing from the experience. read more

Easy eats bbq and tasty beers. Went after work to hang with some friends. Got some pork and brisket plates, along with a few beers. Was all pretty tasty. Would be back! read more

The beer is super good! I got the hoppy pils and highly recommend. If you get a flight it's like 12 bucks on average for 4 different tasters. In terms of the food, we got the killer shrimp and the garlic fries. The garlic fries were good and it was a great portion of fries. Would get again! The shrimp were very shallot forward and not spicy. If you don't love a shallot forward taste I wouldn't get them. Service was quick. I will say the food is a little expensive for what it is....and if you get more bread it's not free it's 2 extra just fyi because we didn't know and it wasn't disclosed when offered more. I would come back for the beer for sure but maybe skip food next time (although the bbq smells delicious I will have to try next time). They also have a diverse menu with a lot of great options! read more

Food with a bit of a unique twist. We got the BELT sandwich and were clueless when I ordered, but when it came out, I realized it was belly, egg, arugula, and tomato; a soft play on BLT. I expected it to be light, and it was even lighter than I was expecting, but unique and good. The drumlettes were good, seasoned like tandoori chicken. They looked good and incentivized the table next to us to order the same. I had their non-alcoholic beer option.. Ambiance: The wide windows are wonderful for seeing the sky change colors if you happen to be around at sunset. Vibe: Loud, social! Speak up! Families, couples playing catch up, groups of guys catching up. Service: our waitress was competent, confident, experienced. read more

I'm honestly still upset by the way we were treated before we even made it through the door. Before our service animal had so much as entered the building, we were immediately subjected to a condescending lecture about the facility's rules--as though we had already done something wrong. There was no incident. There was no misbehavior. There wasn't even an opportunity for there to be one. Gracie was calmly lying down throughout the entire interaction. And yet somehow, before we had even crossed the threshold, we were made to feel like a problem. That is what was so humiliating and infuriating about this experience. There is a massive difference between respectfully communicating a policy and speaking to someone in a way that makes them feel preemptively accused, judged, and unwelcome. Having a service animal already means navigating situations that most people never have to think twice about. The absolute last thing anyone needs is to be singled out at the entrance of a business and made to feel embarrassed over behavior that HASN'T EVEN HAPPENED. If our service animal had been disruptive, address it. If we had violated a rule, address it. But neither of those things happened. Instead, we were treated as though we needed to be corrected before we'd even done anything requiring correction. The most frustrating irony of the entire encounter is that our animal was perfectly calm and well-behaved. The person lecturing us was the one who made the experience uncomfortable. We came intending to walk through those doors, enjoy ourselves, and support this business. Instead, we walked away feeling anxious, embarrassed, judged, and completely unwelcome. So congratulations--you successfully prevented a problem that never existed while losing customers who simply expected to be treated with basic dignity and respect. We will not be returning. I believe her name was Christina and she was the GM. read more

Edgar R is fantastic. Great for beers and delicious food. I love their blondes (sandy shores) and deviled eggs. They can get really busy where it's too packed and you have to wait to be seated. Clean restroom and awesome staff. Edgar was very awesome. Welcoming and on point. He recommended the short ribs and they did not disappoint. It was so good. The taste. The sauce , onions...juicy tender meat.... Oh my they just melted in our mouths. Very delicious. Ample parking. The beers are always so nice and cold to cool down from heat and a crazy work day read more

A thank you Thursday wouldn't be complete without thanking the spots that make dining in the south bay awesome. Thank you HopSaint for your consistent great food, super awesome brews and friendly, welcoming team. If I had a dollar for every time we've driven on 190th and made a split second decision to stop for a bite and brew, I'd have a purse stuffed full of crisp ones. We know a stop in HopSaint means catching up with old friends and meeting new ones. We're fans of your dark brews and IPA's and anything on nitro. We love your staff and kitchen crew and all the folks who make the magic happen. And who doesn't love your BBQ menu? Not us! We might order the same thing over and over again, but we're not complaining, it's all SO delicious. Thanks again for serving the neighborhood. We love that you're here and honored to call all of you friends. read more

HopSaint has both outstanding food and craft beer. I really like the brisket and the cornbread. The inside feels to me a bit like diner, but with modern updates. It's a great place to eat with a large group and the service is consistently perfect. Or come alone and enjoy the bar - there are plenty of seats. I just wish the view outside was better - or maybe they could invest in some large plants to block the parking lot from view. read more

Ambiance: it's spacious inside, good for large group gatherings, overall it feels more like a bar restaurant rather than a brewery Service: pushy and impatient, unfortunately bad recommendations, unfamiliar with their specialities Food & Drink: surprising good food menu, but disappointing draft beer selections HOPSAINT KILLER SHRIMP - **** roasted red peppers and tomato, shallots, habanero, cilantro, cream, spicy and rich in flavors, recommend Side Shell Pasta - **** tasty with killer shrimp sauce, recommend SMOKED BRISKET - **** juicy and tender, recommend French Fries - ** soggy and not fresh This Is How We Do It IPA - *** west coast IPA, average Key Lime Tart - ** overly sour Pure Intention - *** pale ale, watery Chocolate Trip Nitro - **** unique taste, recommend Still Pills - *** light taste Eternal Skies - *** generic, hard to drink Price: small portions and overpriced for their beer quality, not worth $40+ per person read more

Minimal service, no music, was oddly quiet. Bartenders were not very social. Seemed kinda annoyed we were there. Gave it a 3rd shot. Will likely not return unless others recommend it since it's the only walkable sit down spot from my uncles other than the tiny sandwich shop across the way. Food is dry and over seasoned. I will say the steak was beautifully tender and cooked to perfection. I Recommend it as a full steak instead of the tiny salad. Definitely add more colors of the rainbow to the beer selections. More local brews would be cool too. Maybe add a game table and more decor, the vibe was very dull. read more

According to my number of Yelp check-ins here, maybe I come her too much. I have a regular Friday happy hour, and I have been a regular since it opened. I credit myself for keeping HopSaint in business during the covid shutdown. The beer is great. The just tapped a Vienna Lager just before the end of Oktoberfest. My wife likes the kolsch and whatever sours they have. They also have ciders and wine. They have really good food too. Dinner can be very busy with a wait expected. It can be loud. The bar is one of the quieter places to sit. They always have off menu specials. Ask, and you may get something you did not plan to eat, but will be delicious. read more

The kitchen produces a 1st class dining experience, lunch or dinner! Service is some of the best I've had at this price point Their beer offerings are varied and offer new experiences continuously Cool vibe with indoor and outdoor seating options. Been here for 11 years, which says a lot for their quality, consistency and attention to the customer! Shout out to Chef Carlos and his staff for making this more than a brewery! read more

I was here six years ago and just found my review, which stated that I would return, and I finally returned last night! If I didn't live in Maryland I would be here a lot more often. Fantastic selection of beers, delicious food, and service last night by Lala was outstanding! We had flatbread, brussels sprouts, and pasta and all were delicious. I had two IPAs and recommend both of them! Hopefully it won't be six years before I return once again! So Much Citra Hopsaint IPA read more

Hop Saints Brewery makes one of the BEST CHARBROILED BURGERS in the South Bay and has so many great beer and ale choices that it's a great adventure every time you go! It can get crowded, but generally the service is superb and fast! The menu offers wonderful choices of salads and Louisiana plates. But, I especially love Randy, she's the sweetest and cutest young server in the house! Tell her that John sent you for some extra sugar and watch her beautiful smile!

Everything was super fresh, the crust was incredible and now I wish we were actually hungry before we stopped in lol. We will be back! read more

No complaints when it comes to the quality of what HopSaint brews and pours. The service was excellent and knowledgeable while the ambiance is your basic warehouse chic. A food vendor was present bug we had eaten earlier and were not hungry. One observation if I may, all craft beers start to taste the same after you've been to a few breweries. This is my subjective opinion. Cheers . read more

Almost every time I visit family in the South Bay, I also stop my HopSaint for a bite and brew. I thought I should update my review There are so many reasons why I really love this place....the top reason is that they have great food and beer. This visit I shared a hanger steak salad and killer shrimp appetizer with my sister. I got the short rib plate (a special this day) to go for my husband. As always, the food was delicious. The hanger steak was cooked to perfection and the dressing was spicy and fresh but not overbearing. The killer shrimp lives up to its name and we always order this dish when we dine in! I have also had so many other dishes that I need to call out. The flatbreads are really good and great for sharing as are the daily bbq specials. Although I didn't drink any beer at this visit I love many of their beers, especially their IPAs. The service is always on point. There is plenty of parking as it is located in a strip shopping center. read more

Stopped in to HopSaint for a late lunch in between busy weekend activities. It has a real BBQ atmosphere with some picnic style tables as well as bench seating. They have a great selection of beers and ciders and not only their own. Very wide selection of comfort food choices. The jidori chicken was a special today, and they also had available their house made smoked brisket so we opted for the BBQ plate to share - which had both as well as the smoked sausage. Fantastic flavors and juicy chicken. BBQ sauce served on the side so you could appreciate the subtle smoky aroma in the meat. Our server was super nice and knowledgeable about the menu and beer selection. Fantastic place. read more

Maybe we went on a bad day but we did not have a good experience at hopsaint. Our foods were burnt and salty. We got their salad, pork belly burger and jambalaya. The burger was really fatty. No meat to it. The buns were toasted burnt. And the cornbread that came with the jambalaya was burnt. I understand it was kind of a busy night but we had to wave our server down for refills on water and other things. I do not think I will be back read more

Came in because of a yelp review that stated the owner didn't allow their child to loudly watch a device in the restaurant. That's a huge draw for my mom and I so we came in for a peaceful meal. And I'm so happy we came in! It was delicious! Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful and yummy! I loved the Brussels and the Chili was definitely worth the hype! My mom really liked her fish dish (pictured) not sure of the name. My friends burger was awesome, I'd order that next time. And the service was a 10! Our server was super attentive and gave excellent recommendations. Try HopSaint out! It was truly a treat, can't wait to come back. read more

Finally we tried this local spot and man was it good. I got the smoked pork back ribs which were super tender and the barbecue sauce was so tasty.

I would not be surprised if they were fried in duck fat or beef tallow because they were so delicious and perfectly crisp! The service was great as well. We will totally be back. read more

Love HopSaint! Tonight I got the smoked brisket plate with coleslaw, I love the brisket here! The coleslaw is good but I'll try it with fries next time. I drink the Kolsch Enough beer and it is so good!! Unfortunately they didn't have the 4 pack to go of that beer. I was dining alone and sat at the bar, they were very welcoming and make you feel at home. It was a Monday night and they were really busy, I'm so glad to see how well they are doing. It's the first time I've been since they put the new gym where the 99 cent store was and parking lot was really full but I was able to find a spot in the back. I use to live nearby but moved last year. When I'm in town I like to come back and enjoy the beer, food and good service. They really have a good handle on getting food and drinks out fast and it's such good quality. read more

Awesome beer, phenomenal food!!! I've driven by this place on a number of occasions and decided to stop by. Totally surprised by the food. The beers are great, a good selection but the food got me to come back. I tried the Barbecue Plate and it was amazing! Good quantities and tender! They recommend sharing but I would have non of that. We also had the Killer Shrimp! They give you bread but if you share it, they give you two. So delicious, I should have ordered it to go so I could have taken the sauce home. I so wanted more bread... On the return trip, I wanted to test the ribs. I was not disappointed, meat full of flavor and falling off the bone. And a good sized portion to boot. When I come back, I want to try the flat bread as it seems to be the crowd favorite. Be sure and get there early, there is a wait, but it goes fast. The servers and very knowledgeable and always give good advice on what beer to pair with your meal. The place is clean and neat, lots of space and just a great atmosphere. I did notice that they received some unfavorable reviews. Seriously, leave your dog at home, no need to trash a place where the beers are awesome and the food is phenomenal!!! Totally recommend, just don't go on Saturday Nights, I don't need more people taking my table!!! read more

This little corner gem is amazing. My nail shop is next door and I've never been here before until today. It smells so amazing and the food did not disappoint. Our server Jasmine suggested some dishes and we are so glad we listened. We were able to share and try a little of everything. The balsamic strawberry salad was so refreshing. The house killer shrimp was so saucy and flavorful. Highly suggest trying this plate. The brisket and the braised short rib was so juicy and it melts in your mouth. Looking forward to my next visit.
