Hopdoddy Burger Bar is a category-defining brand that serves as a high-productivity Junior Anchor and Lifestyle Tenant for Class A lifestyle centers, urban infill projects, and premier neighborhood hubs. By blending the efficiency of fast-casual ordering with the hospitality of a full-service craft bar, Hopdoddy drives exceptional day-to-evening foot traffic. Their 2025–2026 "Always Forward" strategy prioritizes a modernized 3,300–4,000 SF prototype that integrates high-capacity kitchens with expansive "social patios." For landlords and developers, Hopdoddy offers a recession-resilient tenancy with high sales-per-square-foot, supported by private equity backing from L Catterton. The brand’s studios act as critical "vibrancy" drivers, creating a significant "halo effect" for neighboring retailers in the athleisure, beauty, and wellness categories. With a focus on sustainable sourcing (e.g., Force of Nature bison) and a dominant presence in the Sun Belt, Hopdoddy remains a premier choice for anchoring the "Food & Beverage" cluster in high-growth MSAs.
