I hadn’t really been to any restaurants in the Storrs area until going to Hops 44, and my expectations were exceeded! It was clear to see why they were recognized as having the second best wings in the state, and the elote dip, bacon, and margarita flight were all fantastic. Our waitress and the owner were both so friendly, and …
Great tap room and restaurant. Friendly staff, fast service, good food. Always a good atmosphere, with live music, games and activities regularly. The bar has an above average whiskey selection too.
After several tries (please note the business hours) we finally made it to Hops 44, and I was glad we did. The UConn students had dispersed for the summer and service was excellent. I can only imagine the sound level... They had a large collection of games by the door to keep you amused while consuming liquid and other refreshments. …
Simply wow place. We wanted eat around UConn and found this gem. Food, service, atmosphere all are amazing! Looking to sit outside in summer. We ordered potato soup, caprese flatbread, Nashville chicken sandwiches fried and grilled both were awesome! We also had fried cauliflower bites, they were good too. I loved all the homemade sauces like hot and sweet came …
Came right when they opened. The Traditional Pretzel was fresh, hot, and delicious. They had my go-to Happy Dad flavor, grape. Service was quick and Billie Jo was excellent. Looking forward to coming back for more!
5/23/26 - our 1st time here- LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. Our server was Bobby, LOL , he was a hoot!!! Great server!!! All the staff were so attentive, AMAZING experience. We had the shrimp as an appetizer, I had the taco trio (brisket, chicken and pork), my husband had a cranberry, turkey melt (he inhaled it before I could …
I'm kinda in shock. This was the best restaurant experience so far in my 74 years! The bloody Marys were delicious, with a hearty piece of perfectly cooked bacon, dill pickle wedge, and olives. The chicken wings were beyond amazing. We had the "plain" buffalo wings, altho there was nothing plain about them. They were crispy and they were smoked! …
We loved our experience here. We stopped in to meet with friends, but we just missed them. But we decided to stay and have dinner because we loved the vibe. The staff was amazing, very helpful with recommendations and even letting us try some samples before we decided on drinks. There was live music too, which was nice. Lots of …

I've been wanting to try out this restaurant after hearing about for Restaurant Week about two years ago. My relative and I finally got to try it on December 27th, 2025. It was super cold that day. We came an hour before opening because we were unaware when they opened. As we were headed back to the car to leave, …
