A souvenir of Atlanta for your Tastebuds.
Imagine this, you are done with your trip in Atlanta and you want a last lunch before you leave. You settle for Ponce City Market. Coming from Ponce de Léon avenue, the first restaurant that great you is Hopschicken, a soul food Chicken spot. My wife and I chosed the Chicken Plater. This is made of a biscuit, a coleslaw, mac & cheese, a jalapeño and of course a breaded chichen. At less than $18, the size is ideal for a lunch menu. Good if you skipped breakfast and perfect for share with someone with a small stomac appetite. Let talk food, forget about your popeyes/kfc biscuit. The one we were served was about two and half the size of a popeyes/kfc biscuit. The biscuit was light and airy. Spreaded with honey, it creates a delight. The only thing missing is a side of butter. Frankly, the biscuit is so well made that it compensate. Next, the colesaw. The choice made for the coleslaw is also spot on. Rather than a coleslaw full of mayo, this one is more on the vinegar side. This is to sublime.the next side of the plate, the mac & cheese. You can easily feel the 3+ cheese they used for mac and cheese. The balance between the cheese and sauce makes you want to go dig and dig again. And to finish, the chicken. 40% of a delicious soul food chicken is made of the breading. The other 60% is reserve for the quality of the cooked chicken. I can tell you hopschicken hit the 110% mark on this chicken. To taste, just start with the bread itself. This revealed to my wife and I that we were in for a treat. The breading displayed a tasteful choice of spice and the crunch you expect in the chicken. This was perfection in itself. Next, the bare chicken was moist and juicy. Not dry and more importantly not over spiced to deter from the breading. Putting both of them together was an explosion of flavor with the juicy taste of chicken that confirm that the chef in Hopschicken is really aiming to please and leaving a lasting impression on customer. Add to mix the pickled Jalapeño and you made a perfect combo to bring back home the soul food souvenir of Atlanta, the one that makes you miss the sunday chicken dinner at Grand Ma. The chef at Hopchicken is not setving food hall grade food at Ponce City Market. This food will have nothing to blush about another soul food selection at a sitting restaurant. Would you like to go home with a souvenir of Atlanta? Hopschicken is where you will find it. With the serving spead of approximately 10 minutes, it makes your last lunch in the city memorable. This was a great surpise and I will be back here

Does this look like $6 worth of tater tots? Hop’s seems to think so. The first time I visited Hops’s 2-3 months ago, my tator tots came in a small brown box (the normal brown box I’ve seen many other restaurants put their side fries/tots in). No complaints there. Today I visited Hop’s for the second time and was very surprised that my bag felt so light. I genuinely thought I picked up someone else’s bag. When the employee at the counter confirmed those were my tots, I opened the top and LOLd. 13 tots costs $6 in 2025??? That’s wild.

The employee sympathized with my frustration, stating that after their manager saw how many tots were being put in the boxes, they were told to use the white containers moving forward. So…instead of directing employees to not overfill the boxes, customers now receive crumbs for $6? Mind you, the first time I bought the side of tots, the box closed perfectly fine. It was not overfilled. It was a normal side of tator tots that I felt justified in buying for $6. What I received today was so laughable. Of course I asked for a refund, but since the employee gave me an additional container, I accepted it and moved forward with my day. Y’all got me today!! But never again.

Gave this place a chance as it looked like a pretty authentic chicken place. Didn’t look at the reviews beforehand, but now I think I should have. I ordered the special chicken sandwich and the fried chicken livers.

The chicken sandwich was not properly made. It was missing the coleslaw and the sauce. Fortunately, the fried chicken livers came with a separate container of sauce, which I added to the sandwich. Together, it was pretty tasty, but I should not have been the one to make my own sandwich.

The fried chicken livers were tasty, but because I had to use a large portion of the sauce on my sandwich, there wasn’t enough left for them.

Overall, it speaks to some issues in the kitchen that the food wasn’t properly put together. I made no requests or alterations, so everything should have been standard. Whoever is training the staff should make sure that food standards are being kept up for all items.

If you order from here, make sure to double-check all items before leaving.

It is not a place I could recommend, especially when it is surrounded by much better options in the market.

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. My chicken biscuit was served cold, and the chicken was extremely hard and dry. It wouldn’t even come apart unless I used my hands. I’m not the type to make a big deal, ask for a refund, or write reviews—but it was so bad that I felt I had to say something.

My experience at Hop’s Chicken was extremely disappointing. The food was dry, overly salty, and honestly just horrible. Ordering itself was fine, but the staff clearly had no idea how to put an order together. It took an absurd amount of time just to get some chickens—food that was already prepared—into a paper bag. I genuinely thought they were getting chickens from near by farm and butchering. That’s how long it took.

The staff seemed completely untrained and confused, and the price definitely didn’t match the quality or experience. Overall, it was a frustrating visit. Save your time and money and go somewhere else.

As a first timer, I ordered six piece chicken nuggets because you know it’s quite impossible for them to taste good and I wanted to see if they do a solid job or not. The verdict: Solid. Juicy and well seasoned with crispy outside! Also their signature sauce was amazing! I also ordered mac n cheese which was recommended to me by the cashier. I smothered the rest of what was left of the sauce and it was pretty good!

Stopped here for a quick bite. The service was friendly enough and the food arrived quickly.

The food is not made to order, so if that’s not your thing it’s something to note. The chicken nuggets were a great size and price.

The chicken biscuit was good and had decent flavor. As for the black eye peas… sadly they are a pass for me. They lacked seasoning and flavor.

The house made sauces were good. We had the honey mustard and bbq sauces.

Service wasn’t great. The cashier was presenting herself as if she hated her job and then once I received my food, my tots were cold. I notified the staff and the guy lied and said that they were freshly made. Mind you THEY WERE COLD. After deliberation, he gave me some Mac and cheese to replace the tots because they were apparently out of tots. The Mac and cheese was NOT good. Will never spend my money here again.

Atlanta = chicken friend

You can’t go wrong with this one, the chicken was amazing, very tender and very well seasoned.

The price is worth the food and I do recommend you accompany it with a Mac n cheese.

It’s a great place to grab a snack (a good snack) and a great price.

Hop’s Chicken was delicious. The Mac and cheese was pretty bland but with a little more flavor it would be good. It wasn’t bad it was just like eating cheesy bland noodles. The chicken wings were fried to perfection though. The wings were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside creating a great balance for my tastebuds. My hubs had the wings, collard greens and sweet potato fries. He didn’t say he didn’t like it so I’m guessing he liked what he ate. Definitely try the chicken wings! You won’t be sorry.
