I have never written a one star review, but damn today’s order fell short. I have always willingly paid however much more for Hugo’s burgers because they are a delicious staple of Fayetteville and I know times are tough but…come on! Never once have I gotten such a small patty on their burgers and an insulting amount of fries on my order.
For reference, the burger is $14 and the fries are $7.25. So $23.75 total.
If this is the norm now, I am afraid they have fallen off HARD! Sad day

A favorite every time I visit Fayetteville! Atmosphere is 10/10, feels like a big city speakeasy vibe but quaint and serves excellent bistro food. Always get the beer cheese soup if they have it, always. Hot pastrami sandwich is a must and definitely the basket of french fries. I grew up ordering the chocolate mouse for dessert which is very decadent and the grasshopper crepes if you like mint chip ice cream. Enjoy!

Great food and wonderful service. You just check in and get your name on the list. Then they ask for your phone number to text you when you’re table is ready. Giving them your number is completely optional however. You can then wait inside or outside, if it’s busy, and they’ll text you when your table is ready. They even text you when the table is almost ready. What’s not to like about it. But, once they text you that the table is ready, you have to go inside and take the table within 5 minutes or they’ll give the table to someone else. I had the Cheeseburger and chips and my wife had Quiche Lorraine. Both were excellent. They’ll ask you how well done you want your burger. The service was fantastic. The only downside I saw was how crowded it was and how difficult it was to hear people talk that were in my group. I definitely recommend Hugo’s. Most of the parking is paid parking but it’s free parking at nights and weekends.

Celebrated a birthday dinner recently. And enjoyed it thoroughly. Will be back again. Tuna melt was great and pastrami sandwich was even better.

How does one encapsulate one of the most Fayette-esque locations in a review on Google that pays tribute to the roots of a city immersed in post-Vietnam Hippie realness, as well as its sustainable Mother Earth vestige it’s enrobed in today? Well, You simply draw an analogous line to a beloved work that includes its namesake and centralizes itself on the shining star of the story, I’m speaking of Victor Hugo‘s Les Miserables, naturally. It’s about the bread y’all!

Not just bread but sandwiches!!! Tucked away beneath Block Street in Fayetteville, this speakeasy-lite location is not your steak and potatoes kind of joint; yet It’s rooted in the hard-working middle class, “Sammiches are life!” kind of establishment. If you don’t whip out your phone with its flashlight feature on, you’re doing it wrong. Primarily lit only by the jubilant red “typewriters” neon sign on the back wall; it’s a bustling den of voices, clanking dishes, and glasses .

I have been coming here since I attended the University of Arkansas all those many many years ago and it has without fail. Been my favorite restaurant without a sour note. Performed during any of the visits my entire time going there. Established in 1977 This restaurant has the cred and clout of a brick and mortar place that can claim its roots in Fayetteville’s illustrious history.

The location is very very small, and you do have to navigate some steps to get down into the subterranean level that the restaurant occupies, but if you can maneuver through the maze of close knit tables and make your way to the restrooms without stumbling into someone else’s spinach dip, then you can do Hugo’s. The bar which runs the entire length of the restaurant is a great location for the casual solo Diner, but you can score a home run. If you catch one of the tables underneath the glass block sidewalk that doubles as one of the only sources of natural light in the location. Or next to the back table near the A4A mentioned typewriters neon sign.

There are a bevy of sandwiches all containing wonderful breads that are thick and robust that the restaurant produces each day, but my favorite and by far the most unique item I’ve ever had is the veggie Reuben. Piled high with sprouts, portobello, mushroom and yummy Kraut, underneath a buttery toasted whole wheat and rye bread, this restaurant gives the Diner an amazing umami treat at the end with a back note of butter sprout and pickle hang time that stays with you long after you’ve polished off the side order of chips and having engaged in any discussion of the bread stealing character from Les Mis, and how she would’ve loved this restaurant had she attended a sorority here.

We went after a long 16 mile day hike and walked straight in and could seat ourselves. Friendly host quickly
Brought us water. We ordered burgers and huge basket of fries. Quick service . Loud talkative environment but in a good way . People were happy and it was good energy!

I was very impressed with this restaurant. Quaint little restaurant that takes you back in time to late 20’s early 30’s. Music reflects that era. Staff were friendly and helpful in suggestions. Meal was cooked to order, homemade fries and chips were delicious! Then came the dessert, words can’t describe the deliciousness. The mint/cookie crepe is what to order. I’m sure the other desserts are just as good but this one stole my heart. They even celebrated my cancer free diagnosis! Please try this restaurant out next time you are in Fayetteville, AR. It’s well worth it!

Went for lunch this week on the recommendation of a client. Excellent spot with tons of character!

I was told that the burgers are the way to go and I was not disappointed. Went with the smoked cheddar burger and added bacon—best burger I’ve had in a long time!

The portion of the French fries is large and perfect for sharing amongst 2-3 people.

Atmosphere was great. Super unique decor.

Hospitality was a 10/10. Server was attentive, friendly, and efficient.

Would suggest Hugo’s to anyone and I’m looking forward to the next time I dine in.

5-star for food and it’s taste. I visited this restaurant during Fayetteville restaurant week and it was busy for sure. This was my first time visit and I was actually very surprised to see the restaurant is in basement at Downtown Fayetteville Historic Square. I ordered the special menu they were running during that restaurant week and the burger was very good, loved it.

I’ve experienced this twice now when ordering takeout. The burgers come out flat and have a frozen store bought premade patty texture and taste. However, when dining in, the burger patties are completely different—much larger and noticeably fresher in both size and flavor. I initially thought it was just a fluke, but after a recent takeout order where I spent nearly $70, my family ended up throwing the burgers away because they were so unappetizing. We almost never waste food, so this was very disappointing.
