Two much-anticipated openings happened this week. Hoptinger Bier Garden & Sausage House opened a huge restaurant at 1037 Park St. in the heart of Five Points, while Hawkers Asian Street Fare opened at 241 N. Atlantic Blvd. in Neptune Beach.Let’s start with Hoptingers. The core menu, explained Darin Vangemi, general manager, is the same as its Jacksonville Beach and St. Augustine locations; however, the menu is tweaked to suit the neighborhood.
Currently, it seats 120, with plenty of room to roam. Come sometime in March a rooftop bar will open where there will be games and its own small plates menu.

Thanks. It looks pretty good from below. I wonder what is holding it up.

It's also why I rarely leave my house, as it's the only place where the environment is exactly suited to my personality and outlook. It's my safe space, if you will.I live alone.I mean...I don't expect everything to "exactly" suit my personality, but I am also not going somewhere where I find the vibe to be pretty douchey.

You might want to stop judging people based on the way they look. Have a beer with someone and strike up a conversation.
