The BarFly Mission

BarFly isn't your typical restaurant group. We recycle and compost up to 90 percent of the waste we generate.

We care deeply about the people we work with, the world we live in, the communities where we operate and, most importantly, the guests we get to serve each day.

WHO ARE WE?

BarFly is the parent company of HopCat and Stella's Lounge - we are headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. 

BarFly was founded in 2008 after the opening of HopCat in Downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan. In addition to its three restaurants in Grand Rapids, BarFly owns and operates additional HopCat locations in markets throughout Michigan and the Midwest. 

WHAT DO WE STAND FOR?

• People First: Prioritizing team well-being for top-notch service

  We go above and beyond to support and care for our teams, allowing them to focus on guest satisfaction.

  Our bars and restaurants maintain high standards, from top-notch customer service to using fresh ingredients in our signature menu items.

  We're not just green; we're dedicated to eco-friendly practices and sustaining our local communities, people, and business growth.
