Big Hops

"Only good if you are a beer drinker and like to spend a lot on one drink. They don't offer anything else. Wish they offered more because it is really a cool place to hang out."

"In one of the most heart breaking reviews that I have had to make, a once stellar 5/5 establishment underwent a drastic transformation, attributed solely to the owner's demeanor. A client and I, hailing from overseas, sought to explore the essence of American craft beer and chose Big Hops with high expectations. Regrettably, the place was a mere shadow of the vibrant spot I revered 10 months ago. Our attempt to indulge in the uniquely American Pizza Machine in the was thwarted when the pizza failed to materialize. Playfully suggesting a beer instead at of the Pizza at closing, we were unexpectedly met with disdain from the owner, declaring our business unwelcome and we should never return to his establishment. Bewildered and confused, I inquired about the aggressive stance on what was obviously a joke, especially after being a patron for the last decade, only to hear, "I am at an age where I don't have to put up with any of that stuff." Despite clarifying our lighthearted intent, he adamantly refused tolerance. After telling him that it was obviously a joke with the bartender who I have known almost a year an attempt to reconcile, the owner eventually admitted he did not read the situation incorrectly. But unfortunately the owner's unyielding stance embarrassed my client from Vietnam, prompting our departure. It's disheartening to witness a flagship location, once a regular haunt, succumb to mismanagement, shedding light on the closures of other branches. All this turmoil over a below-average pizza, and leadership."

"Great local spot with friendly knowledgeable staff(they let you try something before you get a pint of it as well which is great if you’re branching out and trying something different). Solid rotation of local beer which is sure to have something for everyone. Edit: Came back here a year later and still amazing beer selection. Will definitely be back."

"First time here - the ambiance here is amazing. Dim lighted, a bunch of board games, great music, shaded outdoor patio, and a good stout selection!"

"First time at this location. I really liked it; much larger than the Huebner location. Staff was friendly and the selection was good. The bartender was really personable and made us feel extremely welcomed. She even helped my girlfriend pick out a drink (they serve Martin House Brewery, which is her favorite)!"
