It usually isn't too busy when I've been in though. They have an extensive food menu for a bar and we haven't yet been disappointed, though we mostly just get chicken tendies (a staple - nay, the pinnacle of bar foods, okay!). Probably wouldn't be somewhere I'd recommend going out of your way for, but if you're in the area and hungry/thirsty, it'll do just fine.

The vibe of Hip-Stir ha always been cool and kinda niche and this was no exception. If you don't know that they changed up their menu.. they did. It's not bad by any means, but I am pretty heartbroken about them removing the Spinach Artichoke dip. It was the best around and I'll be overjoyed when it returns. The new menu still features ramen, sandwiches and other yummy dishes. I ordered a side of Mac and cheese with my entree and the food was out in about 20 minutes which is great! Unfortunately my Mac and cheese was forgotten- our server apologized and went to "get that started", no worries. The next time our server was at our table I inquired about it again since it had been about 10 minutes, but she had forgotten yet again. She rushed back to "get it started", ok. At this point everyone was getting full and I didn't even want it anymore, but she returned a few minutes later with it. A little frustrating. The ramen has changed, unfortunately. My sister ordered the spicy pork (which has historically been amazing) and didn't even finish it, which is pretty weird for her lol. I tasted nothing but soy sauce and spice. I'm not sure where the aromatics went, but they need to bring them back asap. Don't order the carrot cake. It was served over coffee (yes, hot coffee) which ruined it. The cake was overly soggy and tasted of nothing but the coffee flavor. I'm sure it would have been great without it, the frosting looked great. I'll probably be back and love supporting the Fun not Fancy group in CR, but last night was a miss.

We had a party of 10 and we all ordered different things. My husband and I got the cheese curds. The honey Lemon aioli was a legit surprise and was SO good.

I also enjoyed being able to enjoy the Tinsel pop up decorations as well.

What a cool place to spend a beautiful Sunday afternoon. With a tremendous beer selection, a simple…read moremenu, and an incredible outdoor seating area, this is most certainly one of the best places to enjoy a beautiful day. When you eat here, however, do not expect to have someone checking on you every couple of minutes. This place is pretty no-frills in what you get. If you need something and the server hasn't stopped by, walk 5 feet into the bar and ask for it. If you are expecting to have the most attentive wait staff, you will be sorely mistaken. That doesn't mean that you never get checked on but rather they assume you are there to leisurely enjoy yourself. I found that to be incredibly refreshing. How was the food? It was good. I had the Asian glaze chicken wings with tater tot's. It was outstanding. Why the tater tot's cost two dollars more than french fries, I have no idea. Apparently, trendy and hipster cost more. In any case, it was a great way to spend an hour on a gorgeous Sunday.
