Hand down, this is my favorite pub in Rio Rancho! The staff is always so welcoming, the food is top notch, and the beer selection is always fantastic!
The Hopper is like the bar in “Cheers” because everybody knows your name, and there’s never a dull moment whether it’s watching one of the many live bands performing nightly, or sharing a laugh with one of the patrons! The owners are wonderful people and make you feel like family when you meet them! If you haven’t come out to The Hopper before, I highly recommend coming with your whole family to enjoy the atmosphere and some of the hottest live music in Rio Rancho!
Special shoutouts to Cienna, Amanda, Aliyah, and Liz behind the bar; and to Manda and Phoebe in the kitchen!!

Been here several times and for the most part have always had a great experience. The food is good, the atmosphere and live music are fun, and the staff is friendly… especially the short brunette; She always gets it done and takes great care of us!!

A True Gem: Cienna and The Hopper Set the Standard
The Hopper isn't just a bar; it's an experience, and the incredible atmosphere starts right behind the bar with Cienna. This spot is an absolute must-visit, earning every single one of these five stars.
From the moment we walked in, the service was phenomenal—genuinely pleasant and attentive, making everyone feel welcome and taken care of, even when things got busy. Cienna is a true professional; she's quick with a drink recommendation and always has a smile.
The vibe here is just unmatched. They play genuinely good music—the kind that makes you want to stay for one more round without having to shout over it. It strikes that perfect balance of being lively yet relaxed.
It's clear that this level of quality and hospitality starts at the top. A huge thank you to the owners, John and Destiny, for creating such a wonderful local establishment. The commitment they show to their staff and their customers truly shines through, making The Hopper the best neighborhood hangout around. Go see Cienna!
