We've created a funky environment filled with unique art that pays homage to the city's more psychedelic side. It's completely different from the other HopCat locations -- big enough, but with an intimate vibe. With a small sidewalk patio, we’re located around the corner from the Michigan Theater, Hill Auditorium, State Theatre, Rackham Auditorium, and University of Michigan’s full campus. We’re known for our award-wining Cosmik fries, which are beer battered, sprinkled with our signature cracked black pepper seasoning, and served with a side of warm cheese sauce. From burgers to tacos, our menu offers a wide range of delicious options. We live the craft lifestyle - beer, cocktails and even craft food made from scratch. With a dedication to local breweries, sustainability and community engagement, HopCat offers craft beer and great food in a vibrant atmosphere for an inclusive, unforgettable experience.

We enjoyed dining at the Earle - the food tasted great, as usual, and we enjoyed the special seasonal cocktails. As always, service was impeccable. The Earle is one of Ann Arbor’s favorites - with very good reason!

Table of 6. Old friends celebrating Christmas. There for three hours by our choice. Visiting and enjoying each other’s company. Food delicious and hot. Timing perfect as we ordered appetizers and visited then order meals visited then ordered desert. Service was attentive, friendly, professional and prompt. Removed dishes after each course, brought clean silverware and plates for each course and refilled beverages constantly without being asked. PERFECT
