    I am a die hard CFA fan but this place blows it out of the water. Got the buffalo chicken sandwich with tender and it was awesome. Saucy with pickles, ranch, and slaw. The cashier was really helpful for a new customer. The restaurant itself had a really trendy black interior with neons and murals. Not sure older folks would like sitting inside as the music is a little loud and clubby but overall amazing. My new chicken place. Sorry CFA.

    Insane drive thru wait time! Over a half hour, Definitely not fast food. It's almost like they have to run out catch the chicken, pluck it and cook it. Price is also expensive. 1- chicken sandwich meal that doesn't come with a drink and 1 salad plus 2 Cookies, cost over $42.36 thats a sit down restaurant price! With that said I was hoping the food would be amazing and make up for the price and wait but no sadly food was thrown together, super messy and not good.

    If you're looking for Great flavor and excellent service--look no further than Houston Hot Chicken. Their new location doesn't disappoint and kicked off things with a BANG! My husband and I went to the grand opening and back for dinner later the same day we love it so much. Special shout out to our cashier, Nikolas, who made our return trip even more delightful than the opening day festivities. He was so genuinely proud to be part of the HHC team and passionately knowledgeable about the menu. The rest of the staff are all so friendly and you can tell they love being there and welcoming new customers into the fold. This goes a long way for me. I appreciate that your cashier comes to check on you at your table. It feels so personable and (I'll say again) very genuine. As for the meal, I got the 2 chicken tenders and waffles. You can mix up your flavors. I got one mild and one medium. I will say, the medium had a bit more kick at dinner than it did with the grand opening sandwiches. Still really good and great flavor. I like that HHC's spicienss is flavorful and not just hot. Their house sauce is also a great compliment to dunk your chicken in. We also had the strawberry hibiscus and the cucumber watermelon lemonades. PERFECT thirst quenchers. I'll say this, the chicken war on Newport Hwy is starting to ramp up. And I confidently say my house will be loyal to HHC.

    Chicken Sandwich Combo and Chicken Tender

    The front counter people are super nice. They seem to pull double duty taking orders for the counter, drive thru, and order fulfillment. That being said it might take a few minutes to get help if they're super busy. I got the free combo from Yelp, medium hot - and the free tender, spicy level. Chicken was moist and cooked through but doesn't win awards for the taste. It does win in the spice department. Spicy level is S P I C Y. I can take spice really well, but anyone's who's "just feeling it" today will be feeling it all day long. Be warned, if you can't take spice, don't get "Spicy". Fries are good but I did add some salt. I tried their strawberry hibiscus lemonade, it was good! The counter workers highly recommended it and it holds weight. The store looks good. Nice red vibe with cool art work on the wall, no music playing at the time. It's nice a clean inside. Overall, I'd say it's worth a shot. Chicken Sandwich combos start at $14. Not a bad price but the flavor leaves something to be desired. Your mileage may vary.

    Can't remember exact names but cheesy chicken sandwich and side of soup. Soooooo yummmmmm

    Great food! So very tasty every single time. It's a must try for chicken lovers, id suggest the soup as a side. You won't be disappointed . Workers are super kind and the decor is cool.

    Mild three tender meal.  Mild OG sandwich.   The best chicken ever.

    My family and I came in tonight for a late dinner and were waited on by such a polite efficient…read morewaiter named Ryan. He knew we were starving so he didn't waste any time taking our food and drink order which was so appreciated! Beer in our hands and food in front of us in no time Ryan you were a life saver, Thank you

    I've been going to cascadia since they opened, they WERE one of my favorite places to eat…read more They have a large variety of GF/DF food I can eat. However, last time I ate there, the waiter messed up my order, when I asked for vegan cheese instead of regular on my sandwich, he gave me a slice of vegan cheese on my plate. I had orginally said I wanted t he cheesesteak, but then I corrected myself and said, I meant the turkey melt. I ended up with the cheesesteak, but I didn't say anything because I felt bad as I had originally messed up the order. Anyway, the cheesesteak didn't come with any cheese, so when I asked him for it, he brought me a slice of cheese on the side of my plate. Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the cheese be in the sandwich? We also were sat outside on the patio, which was fine, but chilly. When I asked if they could turn on the fireplace, they said it doesn't work. Why do you have a fireplace outside if it doesn't work? Anyway, our service was lackluster. The food was still pretty good, but my French fries were awful.

    Stopped in on way back from Sunday paddle boarding…read more Everyone there so genuinely nice and helpful from the time we came in to the time we left. Couple people asked if we had been helped when we already had been helped. Big table was in there and our food still came out really quick. Not that it needed to, but their kitchen obviously runs well. Food was definitely good. Pub food with a nice touch and some wild cards on the menu that you wouldn't expect to see. Everyone that works there is treated well, and it shows. We were treated well in return. What a little north side gem of a spot. Will be back. Gonna have a hard time not stopping here everytime I'm coming back from north of town.

    Every now and then you find a place that reminds you restaurants don't have to reinvent the wheel…read more They just have to make good food, treat people well, and give you a place where you actually want to hang out for a while. That's Hops n Drops. It's got an easygoing atmosphere where you can unwind without someone trying to convince you your burger is an "artisan culinary journey." It's just comfortable. The service has always been friendly, and more importantly, the food has been consistently excellent. I've worked my way through quite a bit of the menu over the years--fish tacos, sliders, burgers, burritos--and every meal has felt like it was made by people who actually give a damn. The kind of folks who want you to leave saying, "Yep... I'd come back." The layout is great too. Plenty of room, comfortable seating, and it just has that relaxed neighborhood feel where you can enjoy good conversation without shouting over the music. In a world where everything seems to be trying way too hard, Hops n Drops just quietly does what it does really well. Sometimes that's exactly what you're looking for. 10/10. I'd happily loosen my belt and come back tomorrow.
