Hop Station was a highly recommended place to stop at so we met some friends here. The drink choices are a solid win. We had a few of the ciders and beers but I was hung up on the Key Lime Pie fruit beer. They had pizzas that were fan-freaking-tastic! We tried the Galaxy, the El Dorado, and the Pineapple Belongs on Pizza. All three of them were so good!!! The staff was incredibly helpful and fast getting the food out and we LOVED the layout of the bar and the choice in the music. Definitely one of my top places to check out in the South Bend/Mishawaka area and beyond.

This place looks like it hasn't changed since 1975. The overwhelming smell of air fresheners was probably hiding something but oh well. The beer prices are phenomenal. The prices on Notre Dame game days were even better. This place is the epitome of a dive bar and I enjoyed it.

Am I exactly sure what "not Red Bull" is? No Do you really ever know what you are drinking at a dive bar? Also no The shit was delicious and got the job done, what more can you ask for? If you are looking for fancy complicated drinks with umbrellas drinks or those little onion things, this isn't your spot. This place is a dive bar with a fun atmosphere and cheap drinks. You get exactly that.

I'd like to thank Chantel and our other server(sorry I didn't get your name), but she was a lovely lady who grew up in CA, you both were so wonderful to talk too. We ordered cheese curds, which were the best I have had in a long time! I got a bacon cheese burger and my husband got the sloppy Joe. Every thing was great. We probably sat in the place for 3 hours, drinking and eating and talking to the locals. There is not a more friendlier atmosphere and group of people. South Bend really is a wonderful time and I can't wait for our next trip out to visit my new local favorite spot.
