We love love love hop jacks! Besides the waitresses that are so high from popping their pills, slurry speech and spilling drinks on the tables, the food is amaaazing! Bbq dillas, the french onion soup and the veg burger are my fav! Just be sure not to be seated upstairs.... Its hot up there and really squishy and awkward... We always sit in the bar and people watch. read more

Excellent service, average food. I ordered the garlic chicken gyro which was VERY garlic forward, to the point my garluc-living husband said one bite was enough. The French fries were good. Husband's French onion soup he rated a 6 out of 10. The smoked pork rib tips were good. The lemon drops were good. read more

Applebees and The Ram sitting in a tree. K-i-s-s-i-n-g. First comes love. Second comes marriage. Then comes HopsNDrops in the baby carriage! lol! The only way I can accurately describe this great place. I heard they even have breakfast! Yo! I'm about to get up early to check this out. Lunch food was so awesome, I gotta walk 2 miles to work it off. Get yourself to the nearest one. If you get appetizers, wear stretchy pants. read more

Food was great,service was very good ambiance was a little noisy at 6 pm, but still I'm coming back!

Me and my wife had lunch here last week. The service was good and the ambiance is nice (although when it's busy, it can be loud inside). Wife had the fish and chips which she enjoyed. She especially liked the batter on the fish, and the tots were good. I had a 1/3 lb. bacon burger with cheese. It was good (not great), but I think it is a little smaller than some other local restaurants. Overall, it was good (not great). read more

I was a little apprehensive about this place considering the reviews... But, either it was a bad night or they made adjustments based on the customer feedback, because I didn't have any issues. I have been here 3 times now. Once an hour before close on a Tuesday night, once in the middle of lunch rush on a Friday, and once around dinner time during the week. All 3 visits I was greeted & seated immediately. I chose to sit in the dining room, since I don't drink. But you can sit in the bar, they have high top tables. My server Diana C came over within a few minutes and took my drink order. Came back promptly with drinks, and took my food order. She was attentive and friendly, and the food came out pretty quickly each time. The food was prepared correctly, seasoned well, and portions were generous. They have a great variety of items on the menu to choose from and cover breakfast through dinner. The experience was great, and I had no complaints. So I went back two more times, and the service, food, and vibes were consistently good. read more

Came here after my niece did her band concert at school and this was the right place for a quick nosh. Got a cup of clam chowder which was just enough food. The niece got a burger and she seemed fine with it and my sister in law inhaled her tacos. Mom tried the fish and chips, but she was already done in by the clam chowder so she made me eat it. It was a little greasy and airy, so it wasn't my favorite. What I liked was the quick service and our waitress was very friendly and helpful. She also put our drinks in a to go cup since we barely drank it as we stuffed our mouths, so that was a nice touch. read more

HopsnDrops - Smash burger - New American Near Me - Lacey, Washington

I really have tried. We have been 4 different times, and everything tastes like it's premade out of a box or something. The food is overcooked, lacks flavor, and not super fresh. The host is always really nice. Unfortunately, the wait staff is not kind and rarely attentive. read more

The food was very good. We had the clam chowder which was great, I had the mushroom burger but substituted with grilled chicken very good as well. I had the limoncello drop drink. They serve it in an ice glass inside a martini type glass. It was VERY good. They gave you the shaker bottle so it was a drink and half. I recommend this place for good pub food and drinks. read more

worst fish n chips I have ever had. There was probably 3 oz of actual fish and it had a very weird, almost chemical taste to it. To top it off I upgraded my fries to garlic fries and for $1.50 they slapped a spoonful of garlic on top of the cold over cooked fries. Terrible meal for 20 bucks. read more

I just had dinner there, I asked if the french dip had nice thin sliced lean roast beef, he said it did, It was well done roast beef with grissle in it not real thin sliced and not real flavorful. I chewed my way through the first half and saved the other half for my dog, ate the fries and had a hazy IPA that was good. So the time before, a few weeks ago, I had some fish and chips to go and it was not as good as normal, SO Listen up Hops crew, You need to look at everything you are doing and re evaluate how much Love is going into the food, WE have a lot of delicious choices for bar food in Lacey Olympia area. We like you because it's a convenient location and the beer and liquor is good, but I could have stopped at Fatsos or Pints and probably had better bar food. We won't give up , just add the Love back to the equation, Thanks read more

Just ordered boneless Buffalo wings this morning from this location and 90% of the time I've ordered the boneless Buffalo wings they half fill the box. Only two times has the box been filled with chicken. The price for this should at least fill the whole box. I expect the box full as when I first ordered it, was full, it's always a hit or miss with the boneless wings and it's ridiculous on the chefs part to not give out the same portion. It's super frustrating at this point since the price of this partial portion was $20 what a rip off this place is. read more

HopsnDrops - Boneless wings partially filled from what i normally get. Inconsistent on the chefs behalf numerous times. - New American Near Me - Lacey, Washington

I have loved Hops & Drops in Lacey since I moved here 3 years ago, however their recent menu changes really turned me off. I hope they go back to the way they used to be so I can go back to eating there again. read more

Good burgar, fence fries are good. I would recoomend to all the frend and famaly. c.

Everything I have ordered here is unacceptable. I order again because I am optimistic. The 3-piece Fish and Chips was greasy and soggy; the fries are coated with something without taste. read more

The was my family's first time here. When the server found out, she brought out a complimentary basket of chips. She did a great job - very attentive and quick with the refills for my kids drinks. Wife and I tried the house IPAs - just the right amount of hoppy without being overpowering. Burgers were good. Patties were hot, even amidst the colder condiments. Definitely a better alternative to a Red Robin type of restaurant. More affordable than The Ram. read more

If you like grilled onion sandwiches, then by all means order the patty melt. Kept getting bites without any meat in them, opened the sandwich to find out there wasn't a patty at all. Just burger bits and pieces strategically placed. A total rip off for the price and an out and out lie in advertising. Also the "chips" are over done deep fried potato slices with zero flavor, just crunch. Disappointing waste of money. read more

I went to celebrate my birthday with family to find that they have simplified their menu and took my fave item off the menu . I loved the tomato basil grilled cheese . There are very items that I can eat that are vegetarian/ vegan friendly. The menu is mostly bar food and alcohol. Very sad:( read more

My wife and I are locals and the last time we ate here it was ok. Things have improved! First off, Fallon our waitperson was awesome. Attentive, friendly, and personable. Fallon is a 5 star. We had the oink salad which was good. Chicken and ham and the avocado ranch dressing was really good. I had the fish tacos. It was good. Not super. But good. It is a piece of fish from their fish and chips in a tortilla so not real authentic. But, you get 3 big pieces! It is noisy and crowded. The bar staff were very busy, smiling, and working as a team. The beer is fucking ice cold! Perfection. Thank you. read more

Always a great option! We have been going here regularly for the past couple of years. The food quality is very consistent and packed full of flavor. The boneless buffalo wings are always part of our order every time. They are not smothered in breading, you can hardly say they're even breaded. The burgers are so juicy and delicious. They have this new Cajun jalapeno burger that is to die for! Service is always great. read more

Tried for the first time this evening. The service is very friendly and attentive without hovering, our waitress was great. The food was delicious!! I had the Buffalo Chicken Wrap with tots and it was very tasty. Their garlic ranch sauce is amazing! Their house made potato chips are yummy as well, also being a first time customer, they gave a complimentary bowl of their chips with the garlic ranch sauce and they did not go to waste. I will definitely go back to check out their other menu items. read more

This is the best restaurant in the area. Whenever we have people in town we take them here. The staff is wonderful and you can tell the management is good because the servers are relaxed and really nice. The food is always good. The sliders and the patty melt are my usuals. The anniversary beer is one of the best we have had. It's a great local place where you will feel at home. read more

I'm so glad we found this restaurant. They have such a fun menu from their drinks to their food. It is a great location for a family event or a date night. read more

This is my neighborhood bar and I love the staff - how are they all so nice?! Soooo nice! They have a nice menu that is extensive for all your picky friends. I wish their happy hour menu had more food options that could be geared towards a gluten free or low carb diet but they do have a Cesar salad available for just over $6 and it's a good size. I enjoy their French onion soup on a regular basis as well as their hard liquors. They have McAllen scotch and Glenlivet and also have good tequilas too. I come here to get out of the house and just be somewhere other than my own home and I truly enjoy my surroundings. The serving sizes are pretty large and I feel that the prices are good considering the increase in food prices. read more

To set the scene I deliver for Uber Eats , I have 100% positive feedback and on average my tips are even more than originally stated for good service , until this night when hops made a false report for conduct after a manager named CANDACE went on a power trip and rampage Hops n Drops is one of my main locations I pick up around 10 orders daily never had any issues prior to 08/26 around 8pm ( my third order at this location that night ) I asked the restaurant to double check since bag felt too light they confirmed order was correct , after dropping off found out customers entire $70 order was missing I called hops on speaker at customers house the manager admitted they swapped orders and to come back to pickup a remake .... When I arrived I was shocked at what happen next As soon as I returned to hops the manager was clearly upset and irritated I could tell by how she approached me! Rolling her eyes Hops was very busy so understandably she was a little upset at the error on behalf of hops but the way she handled / treated me the driver this was not ok and frankly she took everything out on me for no reason From grabbing the original bag from my hands , yelling at me to double check ( which I did so did the restaurant ) , cussing , talking down to me saying I should've known this or that ... come on it all went down hill from from the moment I returned. She has no business working around customers , especially children! Shame on her there were children right next to me inside while this all unfolded Then once I grabbed the remake and try to leave she ran after me outside well STALKED me to my car still screaming and yelling loudly to not come back " your 86x from here meaning she will be trespassing me , she smiled and said buhhbye and more cussing pretty sure she called me the B word too " in front of all the drivers , your not going to belittle / disrespect me! I kept my cool until the very end when I let her know it's not ok to do what she did She also made a FALSE report to Uber for misconduct? Of course I'm fighting this and sent all my proof to Uber but I'm upset I even have to take time out of my day because a manager is horrible and on a power trip but to lie on a driver? UNACCEPTABLE What the manager didn't know was I was recording the entire thing on my iWatch I was working so had to keep it professional Hops n Drops "A Neighborhood Gathering Place" read more

I've been several times to HopsnDrops. No visit has been disappointing. I recently went for a work fiction and it turned out great! Wait staff is prompt and courteous. Had a burger and some beer. I didn't once feel like we were unattended to but the meals coming out weren't that fast, the place wasn't that busy but the beers and conversation held up so, no worries! My second recent visit was with family much smaller party and much faster service! Also, it was happy hour so the smaller "bar food" portions came out quickly were nice and hot and flavorful! Still one of my favorite places to go!! read more

Consistent high quality and great service. Good location. We love it! Kids too.... I love the quesadilla and burgers. read more

I got the wings (plain) and 410 Mac and Cheese, chocolate cake and loved all of them!! The service was amazing! I've never had such great service in a long time! Would highly recommend coming here! read more

Came here for breakfast. I ordered eggs Benedict and the eggs were so undercooked I couldn't eat them. I let the waiter know and he said it was because they had a trainee working. However, no compensation for the inedible eggs. I understand things happen but try and practice some customer service if you want repeat business. read more

A neighborhood restaurant that gives off a Cheers vibe. The staff are very friendly and the food is great. My go to is usually a burger. Always juicy and delicious. The also offer iced taps so the beer is always cold. read more

Fun typical bar food. Burgers are good, lots of fried foods so be forewarned. Fun place great for groups and a quick lunch.

I love this place! This place always has great service and the employees are nice. It's usually never busy and food gets served quick. The food options are really good and they all taste amazing! The price of everything is pretty good too. I've only had a few instants where the place was really busy or they got something wrong, but it seems that the Chefs and Waiters here actually enjoy life and working unlike other restaurants. Good job Hops N Drops! 5 Stars for me! read more

We pickup here every couple of weeks but when I arrived home discovered we had the incorrect order. Called the restaurant and they were very apologetic and said they were recooking our order and a manager will be speaking with me. When I arrived the order was soon ready, walked out by a manager (who also apologized) along with a gift card covering the cost of our meal. When a dining experience goes sideways, a restaurant's true customer focus and service comes out in how management handles the situation. This was a RARE MISTAKE, but now we're inclined to dine here more frequently knowing management is committed to a positive experience. And the food was great too! read more

Love the happy hour in the bar. Great, friendly service, and yummy food and cocktails.

Loved the food from here! Ordered curbside and it was ready when promised. Food was very well prepared and delicious! Tried the chicken strip salad and the buffalo chicken Mac n cheese which was amazing. I would eat there again most definitely. read more
