We stopped by here on a whim, we needed to grab a quick bite before we headed to cidercade. I had no expectations, but was pleasantly surprised! I ordered the chicken ranch sandwich with crispy chicken and my husband ordered the TX hot sandwich with crispy chicken. Both were flavorful, but I preferred the chicken ranch sandwich. Unfortunately I forgot to take pics, I was just too hungry! The fountain sodas were okay, I ordered a ginger ale and it tasted water-down, my husband got a sprite and that was alright. It was a Sunday afternoon when we arrived and it was somewhat empty with the exception of a group dining together. The service was good, we asked our server what were the best items to order and he literally just listed everything on the menu lol.

Decided to check this place out for a late lunch since it is as close to the hotel. Relaxed atmosphere and known for their chicken so of course I had the tenders! They were huge and tasted great! Several different sauces to choose from but bbq was my favorite. People were friendly, a nice little place to grab a bite to eat if you're in the area.

Day 2 of my Volleyball weekend and I wanted something GOOD after our 12 hr day at the Convention Center. Being that there are so many good eateries in the area, I did my usual search on Yelp and ended up at Hops & Hens. Based on the reviews, Hops & Hens would provide a good meal at a good cost. Heading out of the convention center we walked to Hops & Hens. The location is super cute and sits at the edge of the Omni Plaza Hotel center. The location has indoor and outdoor seating and has an order then sit setup. Walking in, there is ample space and picnic style tables. There are a few high tops towards the back, and the outside sitting area even has a space where you can engage in a game of cornhole. The vibe itself is a traditional American theme with a bar, a few televisions, and the self-serve condiment station. Simple. Cute. To the Point. Looking at the menu I was excited to see a variety of chicken options. The art of creativity with chicken still exists at Hops & Hens and I was ready to partake in what was being offered. LoL!I decided on a Side Caesar with The Texan. The Texan - $12.00BBQ sauce, bacon, crispy onionsThe Chicken Tender base of The Texan provides the perfect canvas for the BBQ sauce, bacon, and crispy onions. Though simple by design, this sandwich is the furthest from simple.BBQ sauce - adds a tang that is sweet but not too sweet. Mild but not boring. And flavorful without being overpowering. Bacon - was crispy and sits well between the tenders and the BBQ Sauce. As the Tenders are crispy perfection, the crispness of the bacon adds a texture variation as the natural pork texture has a rougher feel compared to that of chicken. The natural pork-ness of the bacon further enhances the flavor of the chicken as it blends uniformly with the juice of the chicken. Ummmmmm!Crispy Onions - the secret warrior. The Crispy Onions give you a nice layer of salt, crunch, and crumble. They bring all the flavors together and marry the sandwich to be the mouthwatering, taste bud pleasing, hit of goodness that is needed. The Texan is truly a 10 out of 10 and I am ready for another one. LoL!!!!Get you one!!!!

Stopped in for a night cap. This is apparently still part of the Omni hotel, so all drinks and food are served in to go containers incase you want to take back to your room. The staff is super friendly, real happy, chatty and willing to offer suggestions. Though we just came for drinks, I was quickly talked into their Brookie sundae, brownie, cookie, caramel, on vanilla ice cream..perfect ending to the day!Great place would visit again for a meal given the chance

This was convenient to my location. Stopped in for lunch. Quick and prompt service. I had a chicken sandwich and tater tots. The food came out very quickly. The entire meal was lukewarm at best. The sandwich had a good flavor and was well rounded. However it was not warm. I also ordered tater tots, they came out cold as well. Not sure what was happening in the kitchen but they clearly prepare food ahead of time. If you are going to do that, invest in a way to keep your product warm/hot. My experience here was just so-so. Try them for yourself!

Run, walk, jump, hop, or skip to get here. Hops & Hens is worth the trip. I love the joy of discovery as this mundane place transforms something as simple as a chicken tender sandwich into a thing of beauty. They advertise that the chicken is marinated in hops and brewer's spices.I had the crispy chicken tender henwich and nestled between the buns were crispy bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, pickles, cheddar and a savory herb ranch sauce. The chicken was lightly battered, and it was juicy and delicious! Did I mention the sandwich was humongous!I also had a side Caesar salad. They don't skimp on the dressing, croutons, and parmesan. The salad was well coated, crisp and fresh.A very laid-back place where you place your food order at the counter and they assign you a number displayed on a stand. Find a table and display your number, and they'll deliver your food to you. They have numerous other items, sides, draft beer and cocktails on tap. There is definitely something here for everyone to enjoy. The prices are extremely reasonable as well.

Best chicken tenders I've had so far. Food came out hot and fresh and their H&H sauce was delicious. Great view of downtown Dallas as well and right across the street to Omni Dallas.

A great chicken tenders place right next to the convention center, this quickly became my go to spot when working at the convention center. The sauces are all pretty standard the main star is the chicken and the tots as those were freshly friend and served. Great portion sizes make this a great option for lunch and dinner!

The server was wonderful and the chicken strip portions were generous! Don't bother with the brookie. A complete waste of money. The ice cream was in a small cup, frozen solid with a few cookie and brownie crumbles on top. Not worth $10.
