Previously a funeral directors, Hop Sun is now a ‘taproom’ that has seating down the right hand driveway and in the rear in what feels like a large old yard that has been covered with a large vaulted roof. The furniture is a mishmash ranging from picnic tables and patio furniture to an extendable dining table and beer keg stools. The serving counter is found at the back of the main building and at the rear are brewing vats and the toilets. A chalkboard suggests that there are up to six real ales and ciders available at any one time. During my recent late Saturday afternoon visit there were two ales on, Burning Sky Aurora and Only with Love’s Yacht Rock. There were also two real ciders from Black Pig Brewery and 12 craft keg options. A pizza menu is available. I found this to be a very friendly family run bar and although the surroundings are functional rather than fancy I would return.
