A nine year old review. Needs an update. Pizza and beer. And sandwiches. And beer. Lots of rotating beer from all over the country. Good. No. GREAT rotating beer. You want wine or cocktails? Gluten free? They've got that too. Old parking lot is now an expanded patio so that's chill. A nice area for the kids to run around too. Inside is where it's at either at the bar or in the two section of the restaurant. If you get a window seat you can people watch on Tennyson AND be a part of the taproom action! It's called ambiance sweety. Nifty. Honestly the staff is great. Special shout out for Chase and Lauren. Lots of personality and friendly. Good service and the food is quick. Drinks are always quick but sometimes during really busy times food takes a second. GOOD. Please make my pizza with love and affection. Lot of locals here and people from all around town stopping in who know what's good. A gem of north Denver for sure. Hands down. A little something for everyone. Always suggesting this to visiting friends and a weekly staple for me personally. Now open on Mondays! Daily deals. A slice of the day. Pie of the month. Sandwich of the week. Really can't say enough good things about this establishment. It's bussin fam. No CAP. read more

My fiancé and I recently moved into the area and stopped in the middle of our move day to have some lunch and a beer at Hops & Pie. We were seated outside (perfect weather!!) and quickly ordered 2 pies and some beers for ourselves and our friend, who was graciously helping us move. Everything was delicious! We will certainly be back! read more

Food is good. Great kid environment. Sarah W was a pretty rude server though. She got our pizza order wrong and didn't take any accountability. She said she repeated it to us - she did not. She made a mistake and wouldn't admit it. We knew there was a reservation at our table at a certain time. We ordered one more drink and she said "do I need to remind you about the reservation? Are you going to chug this drink?" Unmmmm... I responded "I will take one more drink, please." We had 15 minutes. It was very rude. I always tip 20% regardless of service because I come from the industry. But she was not cool. Veryyyyyyyy rude. Doesn't know how to talk to customers at all. "Are you going to chug your drink?" Who says that???? Not good with people. Get rid of her and find someone new. read more

Very good pizza and brews here! Place gets very busy and very loud, so heads up there! Service was very good and the quality of the pizza was second to none as was the roasted pear salad! Very much worth the stop if in the area! read more

We had the pear salad, Detroit style pizza with red onions and jalapeños, New York style pizza with mushrooms, and bread pudding. The pear salad was delicious and unique. The Detroit style pizza was better than the New York style pizza. I appreciated the vegan options on the menu, with no additional cost! It would have been great if there were a non-dairy ice cream alternative. Service was plentiful and friendly, and the vibes are casual and fun with plenty of seating (mostly tables and chairs inside and picnic tables outside). It would have been appreciated if the outdoor area had heat lamps--when it started to get windy and cold, we had to ask to go inside. There are 3 fire pits outside with minimal seating around them and they were not turned on. read more

We wanted to order carry out and have a beer while we waited. Their "new and large" patio is not pet friendly. The quote I received, "we chose kids over pets." Okay, I get it, but just know for anyone coming by, through or what not, their patio is NOT pet friendly, if even for just a beer. Go up the street to the new West Highlands Cerebral locale, beer is WAY better, great shaded patio and grab a pizza/salad/slice etc. It'll prove to be a much more welcoming environment. read more

Nothing but high praise here, this spot blew it out of the water! Off the hook jalapeño brined wings, impeccable sourdough pies, at a reasonable cost. Indoor and outdoor seating (heated during the cooler nights), very chill homey atmosphere. Our server was nice, less attentive than anticipated. read more

We tried this place and another very well known deep dish pizza place in the area and quality-wise we found they were very comparable. This place easily gets the nod over the other place we went to because the Happy Hour price is an unbeatable deal (plus the other place charged an exorbitant price for ranch dressing while Hops & Pie did not). I have had deep dish all over the country and you'd be hard pressed to make a better pizza than what Hops and Pia is dishing out. Also, at least for the deep dish, they are ALL "build your own" style and you pay by the topping. The atmosphere is cozy and a little divy, so it's a no brainer spot if you don't want a pretentious atmosphere. read more

Hops & Pie - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I went with a group for a friend's birthday. We met up on a Saturday so we could enjoy their special, the "Saturday Session." This consists of 2 slices of their pizza of the day and 3 pints selected from their draft list, which is extensive. The pie of the day was Margarita. Their tasty red sauce with fresh mozzarella, garlic and fresh basil. So simple, so delicious and all on top of their sourdough crust. Of course, I got a side of ranch to go with my slices. Theirs is made in house and is most excellent. After careful deliberation, I started my pints with Shadow Council from Cerebral Brewing, a delicious black IPA. I always look for the dark beers. This one was moderate at 6.5%. My second pint I trended a bit lighter with Westbound & Down's Mexican Lager, The Coloradan. 4.9% was a nice palate cleanser before I went big with my last choice. La Negra Reserve from La Cumbre Brewing Company, a 10.5% imperial stout rounded our my session for the day. We had a table of ten and our server had no issues with splitting our our checks. She checked on us regularly and kept our session moving smoothly. Toward the end, she brought out a chocolate drizzled rice crispy treat for the birthday boy and we all sang. It was a lovely afternoon. read more

Hops & Pie - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Hops & Pie has become one of my neighborhood classics that I love bringing visitors to, especially if they have kids since there's an outdoor play around. They specialize in Detroit styled square pies, but don't sleep on their NY styled pizzas! Both are good and sourdough based, which I like because it makes it airier with a good crunch. There are weekly/daily specials on their board outside, which we have tried a few times in the past but always decide that ordering custom is the way to go. They also have a large tap list so it's a great place to hang out for a couple of hours. I've heard great things about their sandwiches but haven't had a chance to try yet. read more

The Detroit style pizza was an inedible brick. Not exaggerating at all. My friend got the same thing, different toppings...also an inedible brick. I threw away $40+ dollars on this, and it was the one night I allow myself to get takeout per paycheck :( . Shocked by the 5 star reviews. read more

I got to try a few new places that have great beer selections on my most recent trip to Denver. One of those was Hops and Pie. The tap list is great, and the food is even better. I don't have a pic, but the deep dish pizza is to die for. And is the perfect size for carbo-loading while sipping on some of the best beer in the world. They also do small pours, one of the few places, so I really REALLY appreciated that. Maman: An Imperial Stout from Perennial that they aged in Rittenhouse Rye Barrels. For reference, it is the base beer they use for their adjuncted barrel aged stouts, so you know it's mighty delicious. Jasper With Peacharine: A Double IPA from Fidens using their base flagship Jasper, but with one of the best hops around - Peacharine. Assassin With Coconut, Pecan And Vanilla (2023): An Imperial Stout from Toppling Goliath Barrel Aged before adding Coconut, Pecan, and Vanilla. Reminds me a lot of a chocolate truffle infused with bourbon I had in Kentucky on the Bourbon Trail. DDH Moonk: A Triple IPA from Monkish that they Double Dry Hopped with Strata and Galaxy. __________ read more

So unfortunately I had to get takeout, but I ordered a Caesar salad and fries, so what could go wrong? The salad was pretty good, dressing was kinda seafood-y which isn't really my favorite, but the leaves were fresh and the croutons seemed homemade. The fries tasted like they were sprinkled with dirt and had been microwaved about 5 times before being given to me, the white sauce that comes with them was pretty gross too. Overall I felt both items were overpriced for the quality and flavors I got. I would return to try their pizza, but I'm definitely staying far away from these fries. The staff member who helped me was very kind and pleasant! read more

Very impressed with this spot. Heard a lot of hype and finally made it in - pizza and beer done the right way. Fun selection of taps, I've heard they get some rare kegs regularly. Service was prompt and friendly. Wait to be seated, and you have your choice of a standard casual indoor setup or a heated outside patio Took advantage of the Tuesday deal of the day. Small cheese Detroit or NY style pizza and a beer for $15. Deal! (Add toppings for $1.31 each). Wings were great pizza was just as good. I could easily see this being a regular spot in the works. read more

Hops & Pie - Juice Caboose and Pliny the Elder - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

The beer selection was pretty good, 5/5. The pizza was meh, below average, 2/5. The crust was decent, but the sauce tasted like a can of tomatoes in the blender. Very acidic and no seasoning. The cheese separated and turned to pools of oil and rubbery, which is a sign of cheap low quality cheese. The bread pudding was disgusting, 0/5. The caramel sauce was so salty, it was inedible. The bread pudding itself was weird, more like a gross, mealy sheet cake. Wanted to like this place because I love the beer selection and Detroit style pizza, but this is another over hyped Denver restaurant that is not worth trying. I've been to at least a dozen better pizza places in Denver, and not many worse ones. read more

I can't say enough good things about my experience at Hops & Pie! I was looking for a place to host a going away get together for about 20 people. Someone suggested this place so I reached out via email and talked with Leah, who informed me they could set aside some tables outside on their patio at no cost, which was amazing as most other places wanted to charge us a fee with F&B minimum. I wasn't sure what to expect but when I arrived we had 4 tables set aside on their very busy patio with my name on them! They allowed me to set up a cake with some decorations and asked if there was anything I needed. The service was amazing all night, the beers were flowing, the food was delicious and everything came out so fast! The patio itself is super cute with a little lawn area and lots of TVs displaying sports games. It was the perfect low key night and everyone had so much fun. I would 100000% recommend Hops & Pie and will definitely be back! Thanks to the staff for helping make the night great (special shout out to our server Sara!) read more

Great food, good deals. A bit crowded near the bar (I went for the Tuesday Geeks Who Drink), and very noisy early on.

Love hops and pie! They have a very good vibe, trendy, good food (awesome pizzas) and great fresh beers. It's a friendly place to just hang out and have good pizza and beer. read more

My husband and I got takeout from here the other day and shared: - Crispy Pork Sandwich with Pasta Salad - BYO Detroit Style Pizza with Pineapple, Pepperoni, and Caramelized Onions Everything was phenomenal. I'm always hesitant to order sandwiches for takeout but this one was still so good. The pizza had the crispy cheese crust that was done perfectly. I'd love to dine in because I'm sure it's even better. read more

Hops & Pie - Detroit Style pizza With Wings - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

No wait on a Sunday night at 5pm. Very kid-friendly - lots of families & kids, particularly in the covered/heated patio. There was even a shelf with a few simple baby toys and board books. * Garlicky Cheese Bread ($10.50) - 3.5 stars I think they could've gone stronger on the garlic! I didnt know until looking back at the menu that this was a garlic bread - I mostly tasted the cheese. Enjoyed the stretchiness of the cheese, the softness of the bread, and the sharpness and texture of the marinara sauce. * Sourdough New York (Lg $19.95) - 4.5 stars Wow, the sourdough crust was amazing! Just the perfect crunch that disintegrates under your teeth. We got italian sausage and that was flavorful & fine, but truly the star of the show was that perfect crust! * Roasted Pear Salad ($15) - 3.5 stars Decent salad. The ingredients were good in theory, but I found the vinaigrette to be a little too light, the greens not quite crisp enough. The pear may have been over-roasted - I found them too soft and lacking flavor. A good enough filler if you're looking to order salad, but don't go out of your way to order this. * Mindbender - 4.5 stars Refreshing, hoppy, zesty. My partner got multiple glasses, and we tried to buy a six pack to bring to our friends, but it's on draft so the closest thing was a 32 oz bottle.. * Sippin' Tropical Sour - 4 stars A good, light sour! read more

We've tried a lot of pizza places around the west side of the neighborhood and this one has won our hearts. The dough is outstanding. Can't go wrong with either NY or Detroit style- they're both great. Our 1 year old loved the pineapple we had on our pizza so next time I'm definitely ordering some on hers as well. For as many pizzas as they cook and as busy as it was that Saturday afternoon, it really didn't take too long to get our pizzas which was awesome. One thing we thought was interesting was that they only sell specialty beer, no coors or such. Will be back soon! read more

Good food and service it was really busy when we were there. The pizza was good, and we loved the salad! (Pear salad)

Huge fan of their Detroit style pizzas for a great price! They have happy hour deals and daily specials which makes the pizza such a reasonable price for a lot of food. Definitely get the cupping pepperonis. The husky fries were also well loaded and hefty. Vibes are fun and casual. Definitely will be my go to anytime I'm craving Detroit style pizzas! read more

We made the trek from East Denver last Sunday to revisit an old favorite, Hops & Pie. See my previous review for background. Much has changed, but it remains my favorite place in town for pairing beer and pizza that rise above the mids. What's new since 2019? Good: Success brings expansion and the patio provides a great place to chill with more seating. Additional creative menu items abound. Today's butternut squash/apple soup was a delicious surprise that tips its hat to the owners' culinary backgrounds. Servers are much more friendly than they used to be. A matter of taste: H&P switched to sourdough crust a while back. I get it, but I miss their old crust. Sourdough's commonplace, but the old crust's uniqueness set H&P apart. I liked it better. Sourdough just doesn't work for me with the Detroit-style. Too chewy and cumbersome, but it's great with thin crust. YMMV. Lame: Pizza this good should not come with packets of cheap parmesan that detract from the pie itself. San Marzano cellulose? No thanks. Still four stars for a superlatively curated beer selection with quality grub and good vibe. read more

Damn good pizza and the service was great. The ambience was rustic but nice. d go back for sure.

On our last night visiting Denver we wanted to relax with some good pizza and beer. The name of the restaurant was kind of says it all. We were greeted and seated when we arrived. There's plenty of seating with a bar & table area to the left, two & four top tables in the center, and a large outdoor area. We took a two top in the center room. It looked and felt like a small, neighborhood pizza place. We chose a large sourdough New York style with a few toppings (so we would have some left over slices for lunch the next day) and a couple of Colorado brewed draft lagers. The beers were light enough that they did not weigh the pizza down. It was a good accompaniment for the pizza. The pizza was the star of the show. The Neapolitan-style sourdough crust came out soft and crunchy (airy and crisp). The toppings and sauce were fresh and tasty. This was easily one of the best pizzas we've had this year. Made with our toppings, we were in our comfort zone. Next time, we'll be adventurous and go with the Artisan pie of the month. Just wanted to mention, they also have appetizers & salads, sandwiches, and desserts. But I was focused on the pizza tonight. read more

3.5/5. Finally made it in to Hops & Pie late on a Sunday afternoon. There was not a wait and we got our food within about 20 mins of sitting down. The outside area had great vibes with picnic tables, patio tables, and some spots in the shade. We ordered a slice of the day (Sicilian with bacon, camelotes onions, goat cheese, and maybe another thing or two I'm forgetting!) and it was pretty disappointing. The slice tasted old and like it was just reheated out of the fridge. The crust had a nice sourdough flavor, but cheese was super rubbery and lacked flavor. There were very few pieces of bacon. Would not order again. We also got a large NY style, 1/2 plain 1/2 pepperoni. This was much better! Again, the crust was the best part, and it wasn't the greatest pizza we've had, but it was still tasty and we enjoyed it. Biggest area for improvement from our experience was the sauce. I'd come back again for the great vibes and to try some of the hops! read more

If you are in Denver you owe yourself a visit to Hops & Pie...oh...don't forget the Hops! read more

Hops & Pie - Perfection! That's not burned...it's touched by the Pizza Spirits!!! - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This is nothing against Hops & Pie. I'm just leaving a review to provide an accurate account of the pizza. This is a great neighborhood spot for families or groups to hangout, but the pizza (specifically the Detroit style) is below average. If you're coming for the pizza, and you're familiar with Detroit style, set your expectations low and hope to be surprised. It's a cheese bomb on top of bread that needs more flavor. Great neighborhood spot and I hope they continue to have success, but the pizza is below average. Just know that going in. read more

Hops & Pie is a great choice for a casual meal and drinks, with a patio that gets plenty of sun and even has an area for kids to play. I tried the husky fries which was a huge portion and more than enough to share with our group of 4, and also got a small artisan pie of the month New York Style. I loved the fries, they're a thicker cut but not as thick as a steak fry so it is nice and crispy without feeling like you're just eating a baked potato. The pizza was fine, way too much cheese for me to enjoy but that could be a pro for others. Everything also came out so fast even though they were fairly busy on a Sunday afternoon, I was really impressed with how fast our server got our orders taken. I'd recommend this spot for anybody looking for a fast and casual lunch with a fun relaxed atmosphere. read more

Blessed to have finally eaten at Hops & Pie. So good! I'm not normally a huge pizza fan, but my friend brought me here to enjoy hops and pie before going to an Avalanche game. The beer board is a little hard to read at first, but once I understood how it was laid out, I was pleased with the variety of taps available. Something to match every food item on the menu. My friend and I shared the Artisan Pie of (that) Month, which had Pesto, Italian Sausage, Shitake Mushroom, Smoked Mozzarella, Candied Jalapeno, Red Onion & Shaved Parmesan. Finished with EVOO Drizzle of course. Fresh and packed with flavor. Definitely want to come back again and try more pizza combinations. Just arrive early to avoid parking challenges! read more
