This is by far one of the greatest restaurants I have ever been to in all my 27 years of life. My husband and I visited this place last week, and I just can’t stop thinking about it! My husband, who is a vegetarian, ordered the “Madtown Grilled Cheese”, and he says it’s better than his mother’s own recipe. I, on the other hand, ordered the “Killer Macaroni and Cheese”, and let me tell you, it’s even better than that box-made stuff. With perfectly-crafted cheese sauce and just the right amount of breadcrumbs, this mac and cheese is sure to knock the socks right off your feet. I was genuinely dreading that last bite. And don’t even get me started on the Crême Brûlée Cheesecake!! This brought a whole new meaning to the word “cheesecake” for me. I thought brownies were my favorite dessert until I tried this with my husband. All of the flavors, strawberry, caramel, and cheesecake were SUCH a good combo.
Not only was the food fantastic, but the atmosphere and the service definitely made this experience even more spectacular. As soon as you walk in, you just know you’re going to leave as though you had just visited grandma’s house: with a full stomach and a smile on your face! The service was the greatest I’ve had in years, to be quite honest. My waitress Danielle was EXCELLENT!! Nicest lady I’ve ever met! She made sure that everything was perfect and definitely made us feel welcomed. I can’t stop thinking about this place! Definitely going back soon. If you’re looking for a great place to enjoy yourself and eat some great food, I DEFFO recommend this place!!

Came in tonight with my family and the server Danielle was extraordinary. Incredibly personable, and attentive. Had the Nashville chicken sandwich and added a side of mac (she said I could substitute for the fries, but if you know you know, the fries are crazy good), and everything came out perfect. Everyone else said their food was amazing and we had the gingerbread cheese cake trifle dessert. SO GOOD! Don't miss out!

Food was wonderful. Hayley was our server. And she never let our drinks run out. Had great knowledge about the menu. Fabulous experience overall. Definitely will return.

I wish I could rate higher!!! This was probably the best dining experience i’ve had anywhere in Grand Rapids. Despite it being quite a busy Saturday night, we were seated almost immediately, and our server was there in less than two minutes for a drink order. On that note, I can’t speak highly enough of our waitress, Lexi. Even with the restaurant as busy as it was, she was so attentive and took a genuine interest in my wife and I. We mentioned that we were coming from out of town and had never been to HopCat, and she suggested the Cowboy burger. I got that and thoroughly enjoyed it. Cooked to perfection and assembled with care. My wife had the Bbq chicken salad and loved it as well, everything was fresh and it came with plenty of toppings. The chats we had with Lexi were some of the most genuinely enjoyable talks I’ve had with someone I had just met. I’ll be recommending this place along with Lexi to anyone considering dining in downtown gr.

HopCat is a staple in Downtown Grand Rapids. The service and food are top notch, but your not paying out of the nose for it. It's a great place to sit and have some beers before a hockey game or concert, or for that late night snack. It may be busy at times but it's worth the wait.

The cosmic fries where good but they need to go easy on the jalapeños. The service was good even if they were busy.

This place is so fun! We sat in a booth that was huge and roomy. Very comfortable. We liked the decor and the layout of the restaurant. There was a lot to admire during our meal.
We each had the strawberry basil and jalapeño mango margaritas and enjoyed them. I ordered the OG fries and roasted red pepper soup. Both were tasty. My companion ordered the vegan tacos and said they were good.

The food was so good!! I had the Brisket Tacos & was happily surprised with the taste, texture, and how the aromatic top notes... Kidding.
But it really was delicious. Crispy, but soft.
The service was exceptional. Not only was our server perfect, but another server delivered an appetizer to the wrong table.
Ours. That was pretty tasty too.
