A Nod to the Past
A Toast to the Present
The Spirit of Chopscotch
What’s in a name?
The name Chopscotch is a nod to two things we love. “Chop” honors our first restaurant (Hanover Street Chophouse) and represents the culinary craftsmanship our venues were founded on, while “Scotch” tips its hat to our love of fine beverages (whiskey and all).
It’s not an accident that it sounds like “hopscotch” either. You may have noticed, we’re a little smitten with all things vintage. So just like this timeless game of yesterday, we invite our community to hop, skip and savor their way through our dining destinations over and over. Each visit offers a memorable experience, full of the charm and character that define our treasured city.
