HopCat - Downtown Grand Rapids

Downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan is home to the original HopCat, which opened in 2008. This iconic location on 25 Ionia Ave features bikes hanging from the ceiling, a wall of vintage beer cans, and pure magic. You’ll understand for yourself after you see what happens when you combine a curated local tap list, famous fries, paired with food your mom would make if she loved craft beer.

HOPCAT - LINCOLN

Our first foray into Nebraska is located in the West Haymarket. We're not a sports bar, but we love sports. Want to watch the game? We've got you covered with 52-inch TVs viewable from most seats. Don't want to watch the game? That's cool too. We keep our music on (almost) all the time. Husker games are the big exception to that rule.
