"Hopleaf embodies everything that’s good about the term gastropub—it’s a bar with an exceptional beer selection and a food menu that goes above and beyond typical bar food. The mussels and Belgian-style frites rightfully get the most attention here, but the entire menu is worth your time. Hang out in the front rooms to spend time with their draft list, the upstairs bar to explore their extensive list of bottles and cans, or make your way to the back room and patio if you’re looking to have a sit-down meal." - josh barnett, sam faye, john ringor
