Hogs and Hops

Absolutely delicious BBQ with all the fixings. Best baked beans I’ve ever had. The owners were kind and the food was made with love - everything is homemade! Don’t skip this spot! Plus multiple gluten-free options!

The food and staff are absolutely fantastic!!! Would recommend to anyone looking for good bbq! I love their BBQ nachos. They offer lots of gluten free options too.

What a quaint outdoor BBQ place! The food was flavorful and they offer a variety of sauces. The tiger sauce was great on our nachos. The peach cobbler was tasty, and would love to have a little crunch on top. The owners were very friendly and sociable! Plenty of street parking available. We'll be back!

This place was a great, quaint space for my family and I to grab some lunch. It was a great place to eat while enjoying a beautiful day on the patio. They were also very friendly and welcoming

Do NOT pass this place by! From the first greeting, we felt like we were in a dear friend’s home. The food was amazing, excellent smoked meats, scrumptious Cole slaw, savory beans. Not sure what was our favorite. The brisket, pork, pork belly? All winners! Come see Melody and Joey and you will not be disappointed!

Really good BBQ at a great price! We had the pulled pork which had a great flavor and good balance of smoked flavor and spice. Also asked for their hottest sauce and it was a good flavor and had a kick with a very slight sweet taste at the end. The regular sauce was very good too and is made with habanero and pineapple.

The sides were very good! The Brunswick stew was excellent!! It has the right consistency (or at least the way I like it) and great flavor. Also, had the potato salad and coleslaw that was very good as well and you could tell it was homemade and made fresh.

Also noticed they had some homemade deserts but didn’t have the chance to try those yet. But, I will definitely be back next weekend! This might be the new weekend meal for football season.

Enjoyed a wonderful lunch at this restaurant. Food was out of this world tasty. Staff was polite and friendly as well. I would say they have some of the best BBQ around. Prices are good for the amount of food they serve up. Would highly recommend this place for a quick lunch or a cozy dinner. Hats off to the cook.

The best “Peach Habanero” bbq sauce I have ever tasted bar none….. five stars for just that!! The pulled pork is smoked to perfection. Another delicious sauce is the “Tiger Sauce”.

Update (07/28/2022) - Got the meat and two sides combo….. Brisket was the bomb and mac -n-cheese was so good I doubled up!!!

Update (09/10/2022) - The restaurant will occasionally feature their award winning ribs and this weekend was such an occasion. The “spicy honey glaze” almost made me forgo my love for other sauces!!! Of course I doubled up on the mac and cheese for my sides!!

My girlfriend and I tried hogs and hopes yesterday and we were very happy with our experience! The food was amazing, it was very fresh and full of flavor. They have a very good variety of food, we had the platter and the portion sizes were just enough to make you full, but not too full. Customer service was awesome, we got to ring the new customer bell. It is a very home-y place to eat and the prices are great too. We will definitely be coming back when we travel to Seneca in the future!

The lady's that run the show up front are fantastic. I moved here from Florida 2 months ago and every time I go I feel southern hospitality. The food is fantastic! Tonight, I felt a strong buzz and felt like a small Mac & cheese. Not that anything should be free but the nice lady gave me the small Mac & cheese for free as she recognized me as one of her regular customers. Trust me, it wasn't about free. It was the kindness of her heart. I will be coming here every week and sending all my friends here forever.

Absolutely the best bbq here and in the surrounding areas! Very friendly and clean. Be sure to get the loaded baked potato - it is huge and soooo delicious!!

I had the brisket plate with a loaded potato and it was Awesome!!!
The brisket was VERY tender and full of flavor. Definitely check this place out. Super nice owners.

Had a great lunch of pulled pork, slaw, beans and sweet tea👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Everything was great. The ladies and sweet little boy who were working were so friendly and welcoming🌻Excellent 🌻👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

BBQ is excellent! I love all the different flavor combos in the sauces, and the meat was done perfectly. Me and four friend ordered at the stand and they delivered across the street to Brews where we waited in the cool. We cannot wait to go back!

Enjoyed their 2nd Annual Anniversary celebration this past weekend. The pork plate was great, with sides of sweet potato casserole and baked beans. The meat was very tender with good flavor. I had the vinegar sauce (my NC BBQ roots) - it had a good mix of pepper and spice. The service is friendly - lovely home town folks - and we enjoyed a good meal with friends. It is all outdoor seating so be aware of the weather. I think they are open Thurs/Fri/Sat night only.

As a small business owner myself, I enjoy supporting other small business owners! I stopped by to pick up some pulled pork and brisket to bring home for a party and the owners were most helpful and very nice. The pork was delicious and was enjoyed by everyone. They also threw in three different sauces for us to try! Great location being in downtown Seneca!

bbq was great! sauces were clean and fresh. sides were well sized and delish! the loaded tater -- YUMMM!! absolutely loved this place. and a sixth star for gluten free!! owner was so transparent about ingredients which is so refreshing considering i rarely eat out. super great place!

We came today for the first time. This is NOT your average BBQ restaurant. This is one of a kind for sure. The menu is very unique and very tasteful. Portions are generous. I ordered the loaded potatoe. Definitely not the usual loaded potato I've had in the best. Never did I think a BBQ stuffed potato would taste so good. 🤤 You MUST see for yourself!!!!!

Great BBQ, sauces, and dessert! The owners are so sweet. They made sure we were taken care of and started the fire pit for us on a very cold day! So refreshing to experience such great customer service. We will definitely visit again the next time we are in Seneca!

This place is fantastic! We grabbed a beer to go at Brew's and had it with our delicious meal. The price cannot be beat as well. We went for the first time during Jazz on the Alley and the food was out quickly as oppose to other establishments I have visited at Jazz. The owner is friendly and has pride in her food. She came out of the building to check on everyone. So good we went back the very next day. Support this local business, it is well worth it!
