Hopdoddy Burger Bar

Hopdoddy was a solid burger spot with great fries and sauces. We ordered two different burgers and a couple of fry options, and everything came out fresh and hot. The Parmesan truffle fries were my favorite super flavorful and tossed in a big metal bowl so everything gets coated evenly. The seasoned fries were also really good, especially with their dipping sauce. Hopdoddy is a little overrated. The burgers themselves were juicy and well-built. The bun was soft and buttery, and the toppings were fresh. The bacon on the burger was thick and cooked perfectly, which I loved. Overall, great fries, good burgers, and generous portions. A bit pricier than a typical burger place, but the flavor and quality is personal preference.

This Hopdoddy location is severely lacking in food quality and operations. Ordered and paid for a few wagyu burgers and then heard the kitchen say they were out on a Sunday evening at 6pm. If I hadn’t spoken up and asked about it, I think they would’ve just served us regular burgers. We asked them to refund the Wagyu burgers and we started our order over. Then they served us the wrong burger and had to remake a burger. It was a hot mess. Unfortunately the burger was dry and lacked flavor. Hopdoddy used to be my fav burger place. Maybe I need to try another location and make sure they have the Wagyu burgers before I go.

Classic burger upgraded to farmhouse deluxe is the best burger I’ve had in America so far! Has vegetarian menu. Swift service. Enough tables and space both indoors and outdoors for all group sizes. There is nearby parking. It’s my 3rd time here!

These are hands down the best burgers I’ve ever had—just like every other location across the country. Always juicy, packed with flavor, and cooked to perfection. They never miss! Apologies in advance for the terrible photo of my burger… but in my defense, it was way too good to wait. Hunger won the battle this time! 😅🍔

Ordered Uber Eats Wagyu Burger requested bacon, but there was NO bacon in my burger. I liked the fries. It was a good portion, although a bit soggy. Next time, give me my bacon. 🥓

Love the outdoor space, kids friendly. Burger quality is constantly 👍🏻. The manager here takes good care of his guests. 2 hrs Comp parking in garage

The parmesan truffle fries were amazing!! The Nashville hot chicken sandwich was fine but we enjoyed the el diablo burger.

I have been here about three time now. Get something different everytime. If you order online, there is a box to specify what you want wxactly, you can tell them less seasoning or salt on your burger. Tried the Wagyu snash, and it was tasty. I love carmelized onions, mushrooms, and just added mayo. It was perfect. Gotta say, one of the saltiest burgers I have ever tasted. I loved their chicken sandwich when i tried it the first time. Also tried their Tres Leches Shake that is made with gluten free cookies, or toppings, all their shakes are gluten free. I could not finish burger, ate half, it was very satisfying. Just too salty. The fries were okay, did not get salt and pepper in them, and they were nice and crispy.

This establishment is the definition of inclusive. They had different menus with the variety of options for gluten-free, vegetarians, and vegans. I really appreciate this despite being neither. This is kind of a service yourself type of business. Upon speaking to a crew member we were ignored when asking for Togo boxes as they kept walking, though my guest was clearly trying to get his attention. My guest's total came out to $34 and we got parmesan truffle fries, a bacon cheeseburger, and a double bacon cheeseburger. Parmesan truffle fries are a must. The burger was a bit small tho.

Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon, it was very busy, but we were able to get a seat quickly. The staff was friendly and helpful. Be warned the chairs and booths are very tall/high and if you have issues climbing in and out of tall chairs it may be difficult. The shareable hand cut fries come in large bowls with enough fries for 2-4 people, we tried the Traditional. They are of a smaller cut around the size of McDonalds fries. they were not crispy but not soggy. For $7.25 its a good item to share with the table. Loaded nacho Style Fries, $9.50: I really liked these. They are coated in a spice mixed that reminds you of a taco packet. They are covered in liquid cheese , sour cream and pico. Some people may be turned off by the heavy cummin and chili flavor, but I really enjoyed it and just about eat the entire bowl myself. Doddy Melt, $13.50: Overcooked trash. The patties were extra well done and the rye bread was toasted making the usually dry bread even more dry. By the time the sandwich made it to my table all the sauce and cheese had been absorbed by the meat and bread. A few bites in I ended up just tossing the top bread and cutting the burger up so I could dip it in ketchup. Great burger in theory, but the execution of the cooking was so off. honestly a burger like this can ruin a persons day. I also enjoyed a few beers here and the others at my table said their sandwiches were good. Even though I had one of the worst burger I have eaten in a long time I would recommend and return. I think that I would hope it was a off day for the burger and that on another visit it would be better.

I came here to grab a burger to go and it was very busy but then again it was Friday evening. I placed my order and waited for a bit. Drove the burgers and fries all the way home to SugarLand so everything was cold by the time I got there which wasn't the restaurants fault but the quality of the burger wasn't that great this time. I remember having hop doddy for the first time and thinking it was so great but since trying types of smashed burgers these aren't very appealing anymore. Service is great here and great atmosphere as well. There's a parking garage and parking around the other businesses but it does get busy in the evenings especially on weekends.

Overpriced average burgers. This was my first time at hop doddy and it did not live up to the expectations. Five guys has better burgers. They have a large menu with different options, and the servers are really friendly, so 2 stars. Paid extra for the hot honey sage sweet potato fries and it was a huge disappointment. There was not a single bit of sage or sage flavor. Fries were soggy from being drenched in honey. I got a tuna burger and my husband got the farmhouse delux. Patty was so small. Both of our buns and burgers were cold. The tuna burger had so much teriyaki sauce that I could taste anything else. Would not recommend.

10/10 food i got the nashville hot and it was the perfect amount of spice LEFT NO CRUMBS i also got the truffle fries and the sauce that is served with it was amazing! the service was good the staff was very sweet and place was clean! the only con is it's a little pricey but i think the food is worth it overall very good!!

4 stars: Pros: -Flavorful fries and burger -Easy to use app -Plenty of sauce choices -Rewards program freebies often -Outdoor and indoor seating -Happy hour drinks -Speed of service -They have lemons for water cups -Easy to substitute menu items Cons: - Price, $9 for fries is ridiculous - Specialty fries only come in shareable size which is too much for one person. I'd like to pay $3 for a combo with my burger for it to come with fries and a drink -They got rid of burger 1/2 half price happy hour at the bar -Portion size of burger doesn't match the price

Half the staff would rather be at home but the welcoming, hard working other half more than makes up for it. My orders are ready for the most part but when I have to wait it's usually at least 15 minutes.

Love coming here for a good burger fix. My go to is the magic shroom burger with swiss cheese instead of the goat cheese but this time I went with something new called the Good night good cause burger. A portion of the proceeds with this burger go to a local charity. I also ordered the Parmesan Truffle fries that were a little under whelming this time as they were not as crispy. When you go inside you are directed to go into a line to order your food. Once you have ordered you sit down with your number tag. The food is brought out to you and the servers offer you drinks or any additional sauces you might want. Overall the store has a nice modern look to it with clear glass windows and an open burger bar concept. I really enjoy coming here and would recommend it to anyone who has never tried it before!

I'm a hopdoddy regular at several locations, so clearly I'm a fan. This location is just fine, not an absolute standout but not bad. Togo orders tend to have issues but they are quickly to remedy it! On the most recent trip, I just wanted a shake, so I got their new offering: the candy bar shake. It tasted exactly like an elevated snickers bar! Would I get it again? No, the Nutella pretzel is TOP tier. I'm glad I gave it a shot though.

I visited the Hopdoddy location in Rice Village, which is a very pleasant and tidy area. Although there was a long line when I arrived, it moved quickly. The service was exceptional, and the staff was very accommodating. I absolutely loved the Goodnight/Good Cause burger, which is one of the best burgers I have ever had. Moreover, a portion of the proceeds from this burger is donated to charity.

I've ordered takeout several times to eat across the street. The app they have makes it convenient and they don't apply a surcharge unlike their neighbours Rice Box. They make good burgers here and allow vegans and vegetarians to substitute the appropriate veggie (bean) or beyond patty. The only problem is that they often sell out of the veggie patty. My favourite burger is probably the Goodnight/Good Cause. They use Tillamook cheddar so you know they know they use high grade ingredients to justify the high cost of their burgers. For the vegetarian/vegans, their veggie patty is good enough that you don't have to pay the extra money for the Beyond patty. I was disappointed when Hopdoddy switched from Impossible Meat to Beyond, and it's not worth the extra cost to TRY to make the burger taste like meat. The other disappointment are the fries. They are small and thin and dry very quickly as they get cold.

Hopdoddy's is great! I love to order the Magic Shroom and this time around I got it as a bowl.

Happy hour was great! $5 menu Monday-Friday before 6 pm. I loved the atmosphere and it could get pretty loud during that time, just a side note. It's a great place to meet with friends and have drinks! The house Margarita, Paloma, seasonal draft cocktail, house fries, and more are some of the things on the happy hour menu. I'd definitely go back!

I've been wanting to try out Hopdoddy for a few years now, and WOW, it was 1000% worth it. I had the "El Diablo" burger, and I LOVED IT. It was plenty spicy, just the way I like it, maybe even more spicy if I wanted it. It had Seranos, Habenaros, Pepper Jack cheese, Chipotle Aioli, and Carmelized Onions along with Lettuce. It was hands down the best burger I've ever had. Even the Bun was soft like it should be. I would hands down get that again and again and again. I also decided to go mild and get the Bacon Jam Double Burger, and it was also good. I was curious about what Bacon Jam tasted like, and that was really good. The flavor of the burger overall, everything went together very well. It had white and yellow american cheeses, homemade tomato bacon jam (definitely tasted homemade if you ask me), grilled onions, mustard, and pickled mayo. If I decide to go mild next time, I would get this burger. I also got a side of Fries with the green chili queso... oh WOW, that queso needs to be in grocery stores ASAP. I've NEVER had queso that tasted this good, like ever. Like the El Diablo Burger, I'll get this again and again and again. The Strawberry Margarita was one of those drinks when you don't feel it at first until you finish it. That's how I like my drinks from time to time. The service was relatively quick despite a couple of servers sitting around as I walked in the door, which I won't dock points since one of them did get up to greet me almost instantaneously. The ambiance is more relaxing during the day, but at night, it gets really busy, some nights. I want to come here at night and see how the service and ambiance differ from day to night. Will most definitely be back soon!!!

Great customer service and ambiance. The burger and fries exceeded my expectations. Make sure your bathroom soap dispensers are full. I ate lunch here on a Wednesday.

The Brussel sprouts are absolutely delicious! The truffle fries weren't as fresh as usual or warm and were a bit rubbery sadly, and the ahi tuna patty was very dry. Stick to the beef Patties when there

Fantastic location! Indoor and outdoor seating are both great choices. Customer service could be improved. There seems to be a lot of teenagers working there which isn't a problem, but no real sign of supervision and/or quality control. The burger was very good. Love their bread and everything was exactly what I ordered. The truffle fries were cold but flavorful. They have a good selection of beer and drinks. The atmosphere at this location is pretty heavy family oriented and somewhat loud outside. I will go back but will ask that my fries be cooked fresh. I also will hope for better service.

If I want a burger this is usually the place I go! I'm still upset that they got rid of the impossible burger. The beyond is still pretty good but man :( if you go here you MUST get the queso fries. They are my favorite. Out of all the things on the menu that is my must have. My family really enjoys the truffle fries too. The service is good nothing special. It can be pretty busy here so getting a seat during happy hour can be tough.

Excellent burgers! Ordered: Ground chicken burger - comes with roasted pepper, guacamole & pepper jack cheese. Very juicy and cooked perfectly. Not too thick or too thin. Plenty of guac, I mean everything was generous portions. Impossible burger - same as the chicken Good bread too. The fries are okay. The small size is enough for 2 people. The large size looked like the same amount of fries as the small just in a larger bowl. Enjoy!

First things first. Don't go here if you're in a hurry. The line was to the door and it did not move fast. That being said, it's worth the wait. Ironically, I got the Nashville hot chicken sandwich at a place with burger in the name, but I do not regret it. It was arguably the best chicken sandwich I've had. It was "hot" but really not overly spicy--and this is coming from someone who doesn't eat a lot of spicy food. The sandwich was fresh and the chicken had to have come straight from the fryer. The pickles, the slaw, and the sauce were the perfect complements to the chicken. The bun was really tasty, but if I have a critique, it was so light it had a hard time holding up to the chicken and sauce. My friend and I shared the hand-cut fries. These were really tasty and tossed with parsley. The pictures made me think they would be "regular" fries but in reality they were more along the lines of shoestring fries. Although shoestring fries would not land at the top of my favorite fries list, they were crispy and they did not disappoint at all. When I go back again, I plan to try a burger with sweet potato fries and/or Brussels sprouts!

Great food! I tried the prime time burger Service was 100% Didnt have to wait too long for the food Ambiance was decent.

Tried to online order but it wouldn't let me checkout because the website was acting up so I did the next best thing and called the order in since I was in a hurry. Turns out that was not the next best thing because when I arrived 20 minutes later they couldn't find my order. Come to find out the manager had taken my order over the phone but then got into a conference call and did not put my order in. I'm so annoyed because I haven't eaten anything all day and now I do not have time to pick anything else up.

There are multiple locations of Hopdoddy- I will say that this location in Rice Village is the best! It is very busy but worth the wait. The staff is friendly, it is a very energetic ambiance and great for a Saturday date night or family night out! The food was so good, my favorite thing was the Parmesan fries!

The food is 10/10, their Parmesan truffle fries are out of this world. Any burger you order will be amazing, the cashier with the pink hair and the piercings is very sweet and attentive. She helped us choose the best options from the menu. Will definitely be coming back!! Hire more people like her. The ambiance is very underground calming.

3.5 stars! Good place to come for happy hour that you want to focus on drinks, especially if you're a beer drinker. From M-F from 3-6, they have schooners for $5. It's a big lass that they advertise hold 18 fl oz. You can get any of their draft beer, a margarita, vodka mule, Paloma, or their seasonal draft cocktail is the glass for only $5! A good deal! As far as food during HH, their only specials are for either their pretzel bites, or their house fries. The fries are really good, and the portion is huge, but if you want a decent variety of food deals for HH, this may not be your 1st choice.

Advise eating there.Doesn't taste good re-heated... The check out person was also quite rude when she messed up my order. I had not been there before and I didn't realize they don't call your name when the food is ready....

Love coming for queso fries. Came with a big group on a Sunday and it was pretty busy. But we didn't have to wait in line that long. There's plenty of outdoor seating, which is better for large groups, but in this summer heat it's not comfortable outside. Went for the kickin mule ($8-9) which was pretty good, not too sweet and very refreshing. Would be a better deal if it was happy hour (I think they have happy hour again, there was a sign on the door). For food I just got the queso fries, which are my favorite fries here. The queso is the right amount of savory and it has a little spicy kick, which goes great with the salty fries. Total for the drink and fries was a little under $20, which is kind of pricey for food. I will say food comes out quickly and is consistently pretty good here. Parking is easy in the garage.

There was at one point in time a love triangle existing between the girlfriend and me. The third person in our love triangle was Hopdoddy's happy hour (HdHH). Every weekday from around 3-6pm, they offered $5 specialty burgers and $5 cocktails. For one Alexander Hamilton (plus tax), I would enjoy a decadent rendering of Hopdoddy's burger of the month plus my favorite cocktail, the Skinny Dip (an adorable little Coronita longneck turned over into a frosty goblet of frozen margarita). The burger was different each time, keeping things exciting. The Skinny Dip was steady and reliable, the perfect combination of cold, refreshing, bubbly, and sweet all wrapped up in one. This food and drink pairing was so perfect it had me calling the restaurant HopDADDY by the end of the meal. I haven't been back in a while since our lover HdHH broke our hearts and left us without even a phone call. From their website it looks like they've brought back a younger, less attractive version of HdHH. Five-dollar "schooners" and "HH bites" -- essentially beers/cocktails and fries/pretzel+cheese. Sounds like a solid, happy hour, but she'll never be the original HdHH. Damn you, inflation. You stole my lover from me.

Came to hopdoddy with my friend and had such a great time! They have a nice outdoor area with a place for kids to play. The outdoor area also has cute lights that is perfect. Parking: rice village has free 2 hr parking in the lots! Otherwise street parking or paid metered parking!

The burger was cooked rare, and that's not good. Hamburger meat should be cooked at least to medium. It was however tasty, and the bun was good quality. The beer was 11 Below Hipster Sauce, one of my all-time favorite IPAs. Nice and cold in a frozen mug. Perfect. The music was too loud and busy for my tastes. Let's talk about the truffle fries. taste was good but they were soggy. The best fries were served by McDonald's in the 1980s back when they were deep-frying them in beef tallow. Then they switched over to something else because beef tallow was supposedly bad for you. Is anyone serving really good French fries these days? This place is pricey. It's an upscale burger join in a ritzy par of town with high property values.

Their Bandito vegan burger is one of the best I've had.. It really deserves 5 stars, but I'm only giving them 4 stars because they keep forgetting to add the truffle sauce when I order via Uber Eats.. This is the 3rd time they've done that..

Well so far it's a total shit show. Where do you order? No signs, no one helping, lots of confused customers. It's in the back of the restaurant in the kitchen?? WTF? Brought out my burger but no side of fries.. "they're still making them" WTF Everyone walking in is confused and asking other customers what to do. O Burger getting cold waiting on my fries. Come on!! It ain't that hard ! Just a little signage and some friendly servers.

My first time in Houston and as always I like to sample the local cuisine. I Googled food near me and this place popped up. It was good, the burgers were huge. The fries that came with the burger were in a really big bowl, if going with a friend or on a date, one bowl is enough for two. I had the Oreo milkshake, it was recommended to me by my Uber driver it was good, and also as with the fries it was a generous portion, I ordered the small and it was more than enough. I would probably go here again, nothing bad to say about it, it didn't wow me either. Good burgers, good shakes, good customer service.

Hopdoddy came highly recommended. Located in the heart of Rice Village is a fun burger bar with fun burgers truffle fries and drinks. I came in at 8pm on Wednesday and they were packed, the line was pretty long and everything is cooked to order so it isn't very fast service, but it is definitely worth the wait. You stand in a line, place your order, and then your food is brought to your table. There are plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available which is nice after the sun goes down. The parking garage allows you to park free for the first 2 hours. The food was fresh and flavorful and innovative. The bun is soft and buttery but firm enough to hold up against a good portion of melt in your mouth beef. They also have whole menus devoted to vegans, vegetarians and vegans. There is something for all! Overall it's a great place for a good meal.

They have the best vegan burgers in the city, the service is good, and the ambiance is superb. Hopdoddy is a great place to grab some well-made burgers. Glad they came to Houston, TX.

Hopdoddy is my absolute favorite burger. Coming from a chicken type of gal, when I want a burger...I need to it to be top tier. I always get the Good Night Good Cause, but this time I tried the Magic Shroom and it was too good! The pesto had a really nice touch. My sister got the El Bandito burger which is the black bean burger. She said that it was so good because it was dressed very well & didn't taste grainy like other black bean burgers. They recently replaced the impossible with Beyond which she didn't like though. The fries are always A1. I love the truffle and my sister loves the queso. Either way Hopdoddy will never disappoint. The service here was great as well!

First time and absolutely amazing!!! My friend and I split burgers and fries. We split the Llano Poblano and the Shroom burger -- cooked perfectly! The goat cheese on the shroom burger was stellar. Every server and cashier was friendly and kind. The outside area is nice and there is an indoor with full bar.

The food was excellent. Ambience is enjoyable. It is noisy, but that's the vibe. The service was excellent with friendliness all around.

I love going to a place that only serves burgers because it tends to have better tasting ingredients. This is probably the best burger spot in Houston in my opinion. I just hate the soda selection they have. I believe they're natural and have real sugar, but it's not a deal breaker. They have yummy milk shakes instead. They also have vegan and vegetarian options (beyond meat patty and vegan cheese!). I always have to order the truffle fries when I go. Service is always great.

I'm very long overdue for writing this review because Hopdoddy is honestly my favorite place to grab a burger. I've loved it ever since I tried it for the first time in Austin, a really long time ago. I've gone here so many times. I used to live in the medical center, so this location was also very convenient and close by for my classmates and I to come here during happy hour or even after a workout. An absolutely MUST GET from here are the parmesan truffle fries. They're my favorite fries ever, and every time I come here, I HAVE to get them. Whether you're sharing them or not, they're an absolute must!!! The fries are perfectly crispy and fresh. The truffle sauce that comes with them are just so addicting and delicious when you dip the fries in. Everything about the burgers here are so good. From the meat patty to the bun. Just absolute perfection. Everything tastes so freshly made. I love how fluffy and perfectly shaped the buns are. My favorite burgers to get from here are the Goodnight/Good Cause burger and the Magic Shroom burger. I love the sauce and the sauteed onions in the Goodnight/Good Cause burger. It has a kick of spiciness in it from the jalapenos. I like to get my burgers here medium rare, and it always comes out great. Incase you're wondering about parking, I recommend parking in the garage. It's nearby and it's free for 2 hours.

The burger was delicious I forgot to take picture before eating .. great customer service!

Tried hopdoddy for the first time and had a solid meal! They have a decent variety to choose from in their menu including burgers, chicken sandwiches and burger bowls. I went with the buffalo bill burger, which is bison meat with bacon, LTO, doddy mayo and blue cheese. We had the buffalo fries and sweet potato fries too which were both great. Service was quick and helpful as well. Definitely a good spot for a bite in the area!

The food is good, IF YOU GET IT. The SERVICE IS TERRIBLE. several times, I've had missing orders both dining in and with to go orders. If you do get your food, it's pretty good. It took 3 tries, but I was able to get in touch with a manager and he refunded y missing items.

I love their truffle fries! It has parmesan and a truffle sauce to dip it in. The fries just by itself is already super flavorful but with the truffle sauce it brings it to another level. I think the burger is really good too, the chicken isn't too dry and it isn't too soggy either. Overall I think the burger is pretty good but what makes me want to keep coming back is their fries!

This place is delicious and the staff is super friendly. A very fun environment for the whole family. I was super surprised at how good this place is and the lunch specials are awesome.

Love Hopdoddy's been multiple times in Dallas and College Station. Came here for HH, the experience and food was just as good as previous times! Got the pretzel bites with queso and truffle fries. Both were amazing! Their queso was surprisingly good, was a huge portion. The truffle fries are my favorite, couldn't stop eating them! Great to share. Tried their special Roscoe burger. It was good, but had higher expectations for it!

Came to this place after a long day at the airport starving. Service was so friendly and accommodating from the moment we walked in. The layout is very spacious and well thought out so you have foot rests and a giant paper towel for your messiness. Diablo burger is soooo good. Not too salty but flavorful. Spicy lovers will also appreciate the heat that builds up. Truffle fries are amazing sharing size.

Amazing, food. Nice lil atmosphere I love this place. We will be back soon. I want to try the whole menu.

Ok so I went here two times in 2 weeks.. the first week my daughter called in her order spoke with someone they gave the total and everything.. I get to the store they don't have her order and they said it never came through.. then I place the order with the guy they bring her order to me he says oh we did find her ticket sorry.. I check the order and there is pepper Jack cheese which she did not order.. I returned it immediately they remade it.. smh The next week she called in the order I get to the store they have the order but her burger was on a sunflower bun??? Who ordered that ??? Not us so then I paid for parking and I had to wait for them to remake it and hopefully it would be before the meter expired.. sooooooo very disappointed for a kids meal on both occasions to be over 9.00 and you still get it wrong I can't!! Smh

This location is so good. The parking is super easy, and the cocktails here are so yummy (and appropriately strong). Their burgers and fries are to die for - especially the parmesan truffle fries. Their happy hour is also really good! Out of all the Hopdoddy locations that I've been to, this is my favorite!
