by greg & jenn • march 22, 2015 it was a saturday night and jenn and i decided to take kaci, our oldest daughter, to get a burger from aplacewe had been wanting to try “hops burger bar”. we have attempted to eat at hops before, but we had our youngest with us at the time and this isn’t really the kind ofplacethat you want to wait an hour with a two year old (in fact i don’t want to wait an hour with a two year old anywhere). with the crowd in mind we left high point around 5pm in order to try and beat some of the crowd that seems to be standard here. unlike our previous attempt, the host recognized our attempt at patronizing theplaceand put our name on a waiting list and we were told it would be about 30 minutes, which is not too bad for a saturday night. the restaurant is small with a couple of tables, booth’s and a bar that lines the back of the restaurant. the bar is first come first serve. there is a patio with tables on the right side of the building, but this was about two weekends ago and it was still a little chilly this particular evening. within about 45 minutes we were sat at a booth and were pretty hungry by this point. our server greeted us after a couple of minutes and took our orders. we started out with an order of the “carolina red onion rings”. these onion rings had just the right amount of batter to compliment the fresh and crisp onions that it encapsulated. they were tasty, not too greasy and cooked just right. the sauce served with them seemed to be a remoulade, but we opted for ketchup instead. onto the reason we came, the burgers. kaci decided on a “create your own burger” and went with the beef burger with bacon, lettuce, onion, pickles and ketchup. she seemed to enjoy it but was only able to finish about half of it. the burgers are not huge but they are plenty big for one person, especially a 10 year old. hops also boasts a “wall of fries” in which you can choose from a variety of different styled flavors. kaci chose her favorite “chil

best vegetarian burger, period.. i have never had such a delicious vegetarian burger as the 'nutty patty' thisplacemakes. it doesn't try to be meat, and it's not overtly black bean, either. it's crunchy and savory and has fun things like sunflower seeds throughout. my carnivore fiance even steals bites because he thinks it is so good! if you're a vegetarian looking for something different and delicious, definitely try the carolina goat with no bacon, on a nutty patty. i'm salivating just thinking about it :p

fish sandwich is awesome, too. wow, tried their beer battered haddock sandwich (can't always choose the burger, right?), and it was outstanding - nice batter, not at all greasy, and the fish was tender and flakey with great fish flavor. and it was huge, it was hanging out both sides of the bun.

a better burger. our first visit here for lunch today was a nice experience. theplaceis small, well decorated in the style of a bar with good pub food and big screen tvs - there is also some patio seating.

they offer 8 "named" house burgers (6 or 8 oz for $8/$9 with a side), or you can build your own - this can get a little pricey depending on your toppings. a 6 oz burger with jalapenos, pepperjack cheese, and grilled onions billed out at $8.50, but you get a side - one of big burger spots large burgers run $7 without a side.

the burger itself here is simply excellent - very flavorful with a slight touch of greasiness that makes a good burger - only angus meat is used. i would go with the brioche, and would definitely skip the potato roll, both flavor and texture are off, imho. only mis-step was the burger was somewhat rarer than medium.

the ff are awesome, well cut and fried to the perfect crispness, even fairly well salted. the side slad with blue cheese dressing was also nice - lots of cheese crumbles in the dressing. they offer home made chips but they are of the sweet potato variety and i only eat sweet potatoes in casseroles, and then only on selected holidays when turkey is served.

this large style burger (as opposed to the smaller diner/cafe burgers served at danny's or oakcrest) is right up there with big burger spot and emma kay's as the best of its style in the triad.

they have a small lot, and parking can be a problem, especially when josephine's next door is busy.

best burgers and beer in town!. hops takes the title! incredible burgers and the most expansive rotating draught list in greensboro. if you are a beer geek this is theplacefor you! they don't have the largest list in greensboro but they do have the most well put together list in the triad. the burgers are out of this world. if you want the freshest most flavorful beef, local produce and local dairy this is theplacefor you.

great burgers the awards are spot on. i think its pretty sad when competitors post fake bad reviews on their competition. i've eaten at thisplace20 times and have never had a tasteless burger and theplaceis beautiful inside. the two identical bad reviews are from their competition down the street. very sad. haters will be haters!

incredible. we had our second meal here last night and it was awesome! the north carolinian is definitely their best burger. also if your into goat cheese the "peppered goat cheese" appetizer was right on point! thisplaceis really special and will continue to be our favorite burger joint in greensboro!

less than impressive. burgers came out on wrong buns and with spicy jalapeño bacon which was disgusting.placesmelled like an old foot. waitress was nice but kitchen was terrible. miss the old pizza place!!!
