I've visited Hops Pub twice now and I'll begin by saying although the pub is located in a curious location deep beneath the New West Skytrain station, the service and food has been excellent.
On our first visit we ordered the nachos which were top notch. Big chips layered with loads of cheese and other goodies.
On our second visit the nachos were not as good.
The real hit for me was their deep fried dill pickles. Dills with a strong snappy dill pickle flavour with a crisp cornmeal coating. I loved it.
We also shares a heap of wings which were a little too heavily sauced (maybe that was because of the type we chose). However, the wings were really meaty little things.
Overall, the food was really good and the service was great. We will definitely return to Hops Pub.
Small but great. I'm new to the area but I like puns. Being from the Kootneys I love this pub. It's got that cozy small pub feel but the trendy craft beer selection you find down here. I have gone several times with a few friends and the food is always excellent and staff has been great. They have a great burger selection.
Overall it's a great "little" pub. In a big city.
One of the best pubs ever. First of all this pub is transit accessible off the skytrain. The staff are amazing and super friendly along with their great service! They have a wide selection of craft beer and delicious food too! This place is more in the 95% range!
I luv the food and the staff!. It is small any comfy. There menu is overall some of the best pub food ive had ever cuz it doesnt taste like pub food. Please try there goganzola mac n cheese with short ribs in it!!!! It is one of the best things ive ever tasted!! I overall rate them for food drinks and staff a 9 1/2.
Good brews, service and location.. Cool pub, but need to expand the menu.
Completely renovated, nice dark decor and just the right ambience for us. Not huge, so may be busy at peak times.
Had a delicious (huge) burger done just right. Onion rings needed a bit more seasoning. Wife had some honey garlic wings which were good too.
Will definately be back for a quick bite and a beer!
Food 4 Thought. Had a delicious pulled pork sandwich there. I think I recognize the taste being similar to a local specialist in BBQ.

We visited this pub a few times, usually in summer to be seated on
their patio area. It offers quite a decent list of beverages. I found their choice of IPAs to be a bit weak, but after pandemic re-opening, they introduced Mariner IPA to the list, and it's a game-changer for me. Service is slow at times, mainly because the place is packed, and there's only one waitress, but it's bearable. We never went past appetizers, but I can tell that wings are good, and mozzarella triangles are nice when cheese stays inside, which doesn't happen always, and you get triangles with no cheese inside. Also, I'm not sure if it's a post-pandemic measure, but now the kitchen closes at 8 pm. For us, somehow missing the last kitchen call, it was the end of the night. One other thing that I really liked, which is not available anymore in COVID-19 reality for very obvious reasons, is that they used to have a popcorn machine where patrons could get a free popcorn – it's genius. I can't say that this pub is perfect, but they are trying to be so, and I can see why many locals like it. Give it a try.
The bartender was cheery and good even though it was busy. An eclectic group of patrons makes it a good stop for people watching lol
Very nice atmosphere. Great place to grab a drink before heading home on the skytrain. Jeff the bartender is very friendly and makes you feel good. Also very knowledgeable on drinks and stuff and very informative on the stuff. Very fun times cause of the regulars and the bartenders
Drinks and food are pretty good. There's only one staff that looked like she was done for the day that almost didn't want to cater to a big group (she cleaned the table left by customers before us). The other staff that continued to serve us is pretty nice otherwise so we still felt valued afterwards.
Decent food. Great deal on wings on Thursday and they're tasty. Easily accessible by skytrain within few steps away. Friendly staff.
