A Hoppy Place Maidenhead in Windsor and Maidenhead

A really nice contemporary bar perfect for a refreshing beverage

So I was in Maidenhead last night to watch my beloved Oldham Athletic at York Road home of Maidenhead United so as I was looking for somewhere to park the car I saw The Hoppy Place so after I parked up I headed in to The Hoppy Place for a quick pint. The bar sells Crafts Largers, Craft Beers, IPA's etc really large selection of Craft beers across the board, Really quirky interior and so I ordered a Pint of IPA and grabbed a seat. Service was great, Laid back atmosphere, Polite and friendly staff, Bar was spotlessly clean, Clean toilets, Dog friendly bar, I paid £6.40 for a pint of IPA it was a fantastic pint and you can Pay Cash Or Card and the pint tasted very hoppy, I finished my pint and headed to the Stripes bar(Fan bar at the stadium). Me and My Wife post alot of reviews on Google and we always give our honest impressions and opinions on everything from Service, value for money, travel, Flights, Hotels, Flights, Airbnbs, food, restaurants, Bars, Pubs, Customer services, cleanliness, Comfort, Beaches, Beach bars, beauty treatments etc and we have over 29,000,000+ reviews on Google. 5☆ 5☆ 5☆ 5☆ 5☆

Great little place if you like weird and wonderful craft beers, ales, ipa's and ciders. Great friendly staff.

Outstanding beer selection. Staff are friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming. Can’t recommend it enough!!

Drank Good beer, bought a cool shirt.

Very friendly staff. They know everything about the craft beer ! I always feel welcome.

Fantastic place with great staff, great selection of beers, and quirky merch. If you’re not sure what sort of beer you like, the staff will help you decide! Definitely worth a visit!

Love the vibe in here Premium beers, premium feel. Obviously a bit more pricey than your average pub but there are Loads Of beers to choose from. It's an experience

Tough one this. First and foremost a great bar on so many fronts and a must visit for us beer lovers. Here I docked a star though. Whilst it's great to try new beers, you do have to avoid the brewery duds. 2/4 were duds....one wasn't even servable by bar staff admission..completely down to the brewery recipes of course. 2/4 were amazing. You be the judge. Be harsher on what you let through is my advice. Great beer is SO challenging! And worth the blood sweat and tears. Every time. As I say....a brewery thing...no reflection on this wonderful bar. And it's ok to be daring. As I said....a tough one. First time ever had a beetroot Saison. And it was awesome.

A great place. Brilliant selection of beer with wonderful service.

Great local ran venue for craft beer and socializing. Frequent changing of options, and the best takeaway selection anywhere in the area.

Craft beer bar in central Maidenhead location. Nice to see a craft store instead of a big chain. Pricey but has some unique craft ales, stouts, porters and ciders available. If the weather is nice they have outdoor tables and benches. Hold various events during the week like Lego building, quiz night etc.

We were thrilled when we heard this tap room was opening on our doorstep. We usually frequent Siren tap yard Finchhamstead or Phantom in Reading. Unfortunately we continually found the staff rude and uninviting. We are thrilled the new Siren tap room has opened in Reading so prefer to make the journey there where the staff go out of their way to provide excellent customer service.

Lovely and knowledgeable staff. A nice cold beer on a warm day was a real treat here and we'll definitely be back!

I love A Hoppy Place! This has been my go to bar for a good while now. The atmosphere is great inside- lovely furnishing, great music and tons of friendly people! The staff are wonderful, helpful and chatty. As soon as I walk in they slide a few samples of sours towards me because they know it’s what I like. Dogs are allowed as well which makes it even better. If you’re looking for a place to go with a few friends or even by yourself, this is the place! The staff are full of knowledge and always helpful, so if you don’t know what to get they are always there to help. I’d highly recommend this tucked away gem.

When your tired of the same ole beers in Maidenhead, it's nice to have a place you get some really good beers right in town. I don't get there often enough, but when I do, I am always glad I did. Tell Ben Josh sent ya!

This pub offers a great selection of craft beers and has a friendly staff who can help you pick the perfect drink. Plus, they play emo music from the 2000s!

My favourite pub in Maidenhead!

This is now the best pub in Maidenhead, by far. Excellent selection of beer, knowledgable and friendly staff. Yeah, a bit more expensive than Wetherspoons but you get 10x the quality and service for less than 2x the price.

Open Mic Night - purely by accident but what a great evening!!

We hosted my wife’s 30th birthday party here, and had a fantastic night. The staff were very helpful and attentive, great vibes, great beer and couldn’t have asked for anything more from the night. Thank you!!

An excellent place for craft beer drinks - on tap and in the fridges. Love it for the friendly atmosphere, knowledgeable staff and fantastic range of beer. Also, really like being able to 'order in' pizza from the fantastic Knead Pizza just a couple of doors up!

Nipped in for a beer after a trip to London, so only had time for one, but why couldn't Maidenhead have had things like this when I lived there? I might not have moved out if it had. Great selection of modern craft beers, good bar snacks and welcoming to everyone. Nice spot

My favourite pub in maids! Great choice of beers and ales reasonable pricing for craft beers too, they allow you to order in a pizza from next door and have plenty of bar snacks available. Atmosphere is great and they play the best music!!

The closest I’ve seen to a true tap house. On a cold January Thursday it was a very warm Welcome. 12 beers on tap and a further 4 hand pulled. Loads of different ciders and chiller cabinets chocked full of all sorts of wonders. I have found my happy place!

Great local business serving a fantastic variety of craft options. No one site food, but they will happily allow you to order your pizza from next doors equally good Knead!

Amazing selection of ales and different types of beers. Wonderful atmosphere.

Came in as a Kidderminster fan with a friend before our game against Maidenhead. A great bar/pub, with a superb selection of beers, good background music (at the right volume too) and really helpful/personable staff. Would highly recommend.

Always excellent. Fabulous beers and atmosphere.

Got a few beers here, friendly staff, good beer choice. The seating was quite uncomfortable and the atmosphere left much to be desired

Friendly beer nirvana. Many taps, always great cask options, and be sure to check out the fridges for more!!! They support local breweries massively and the staff really know their stuff!

The best craft beer place in the UK

Hidden gem in Maidenhead - short walk away from the train station! GREAT selection of Ales IPAs Sours... tried couple - had a Hazy and the Cherry GarSour. Both really good (and I don't usually do Sours!). Now Elizabeth Line gets you from East London to this side of town; would definitely return! RECOMMEND.

Fantastic beers and camra discount 👌

No food served in the bar but 2 amazing Neopolitano pizza places next door (Knead) & round the corner (Presto). You are encouraged to bring their take-outs into the bar to enjoy with your beers. Works very well & pizzas very high quality.

I’ve not been out in Maidenhead for 18 years since I left … this is a lovely new establishment with many real ales, beers and ciders both still and sparkling; lovely staff and they are both lgbt+ friendly and dog friendly … what more could one want … food … oh yes beautiful pizzas available around the corner from Knead to eat inside this venue along with a quiet a selection of bar nibbles.

One of the very best specialist craft beer bars I have visited, and I’ve been to plenty. The staff are knowledgeable as to what they are purveying, the range of beers in both style and ABV is excellent. Highly recommended! This place deserves to do well. Dog friendly too!

Excellent tap room, a superb selection of beers, friendly staff and music from the likes of Iron Maiden & Motorhead, what's not to love, well worth a visit if your in the area. Good selection of beer snacks but also an option to order in Pizza if you want something a bit more hearty.

Great selection of beer, lovely knowledgeable staff. my local....I probably shouldn't be recommending if want a seat,but!

One of the best tap rooms in the area. Always great selection of beers and very knowledgeable staff. (If you are after some food you can sit outside and order pizza to go from Knead Pizza next door, bit of a hack, their pizzas are awesome!)

This is a new and excellent bar in Maidenhead, part of the redevelopment of this area. It was bustling, but we were able to find a place to sit. When we asked about beer options we were given samples to try. The serve bar snacks, but no food. There was outside seating available too. This place is well worth visiting

The highlight of my visit to Maidenhead. Friendly atmosphere created by staff who are knowledgeable and passionate about beer styles. The beer choice was excellent and my breakfast stout (Broken Dream from Siren) was one of the best beers I have had all year. Every town should have a bar like this. I will definitely return!

Amazing place, incredible beer selection

Asking me what the food was like in a pub? First time I've been there. Bought some stout, it was lovely but I didn't take note of the strength xD Visited around 4-5pm so it was nice and quiet. The theme kind of reminded of the Hob Goblin before they got rid of the regulars, the dukebox and painted it hideous red! Would return at some point, but I'm not big drinker. I do like craft beer though!

The selection of beers and ciders are phenomenal, but you might have guessed that! What might not be apparent to new acquaintances is the love and passion behind A Hoppy Place. More than just open up a bar serving great beer and cider, in little under a year the owners have created a thriving community in a town that was rapidly becoming ghost-like. This goes beyond the usual pub-pleasing events like bottle shares and quiz nights (both of which deservedly fill the place on a monthly basis) to more inclusive activities that reach out to less transitional areas: whether it’s joining the Simcoe the dog on her Sunday walk or making new friends at one of the Lego & Libations evenings. I’ve yet to visit for the Open Mic night but it’s next on my list (albeit at a safe distance from the mic)! And that word “community” goes way beyond the clientele. In the last year brewers have made A Hoppy Place in Maidenhead a destination to showcase their latest beers. This includes local stalwarts Siren (a unique blending session to celebrate their 10th birthday) and moogBrew in Taplow to those travelling from farther afield: a special tap takeover from Leeds’ Tartarus and Unbarred from Brighton launching their legendary Stoutzilla earlier this year. The staff are lovely (look I know them all by name: hello Charlotte, Gavin, Ben, Callum and Lewis) and they’re also knowledgeable (half of them are certified sommeliers) and genuinely care about what they’re building under the stewardship of owners Dave, Naomi and Jason. Small wonder they picked up national awards for both best independent craft beer venue AND online retailer at this year’s SIBA BeerX shindig. Maidenhead has never had it so good! Dog friendly, human friendly and did I mention they do good beer?

Food= proper pork scratchings (at least for me) 😊, not even sure they do food. Next door and nearby was lots of food, but this place is a pub, as a pub was and should be. It's a proper pub with a 21st Century look and a neighbourhood pub like atmosphere, whether they knew each other or not folks were chatting, some more coherent than others. Draft bitter was rather yum, highly recommend this place, we will be back.

Great selection of beer and cider

Great beer and relaxed geeky atmosphere

Amazing gem of a find - if you like somewhere which cares about its ales, and it's customers then this is the right place for you!

Amazing array of draught and canned beers and cider, knowledgeable and passionate staff, great service, clean establishment.

Fantastic selection of beers, great atmosphere too. Would recommend.

There is no place around with a greater variety of delicious beers, ales and stouts. Whatever they have here is firstly: delicious, secondly: unique, thirdly: the best you ever tried. Ok, it is my personal opinion. But if you love beer, if you value quality and if you want to try something exceptional - go there.

Fantastic range of beers. Friendly service. Would be the only pub I would ever visit if I lived in Maidenhead.

Great choice of beers and cider. Lovely service and advice

Come here now and then, love the atmosphere, staff and crazy range of beers to choose from! Good work ladies and gents, a place to brighten up this dive we all know and love, Maidenhead.

Modern, fresh bar area with a fantastic selection of ales to either drink in or take out!

Lovely atmosphere and lovely beverages as always.

Such a great bar, with excellent beers and wines, and friendly staff. I wasn't at all surprised to read that they won the SIBA Best UK Independent Craft Beer Retailer award this year.

Had a great sesh at a Hoppy Place. The selection of craft beers was impressive and the staff were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The atmosphere was fun and welcoming, making it the perfect spot to hang out with friends or grab a drink after work. Recommend a visit to any beer lover looking for a top-notch craft beer experience!

Nice place, great selection of beers

Wonderful setting, great beer, excellent atmosphere, well worth a visit

Very knowledgeable staff an very welcoming.

Lovely little place with a huge selection of beer. Plenty of wine if you don't drink beer. You can even bring pizza in from next door Knead as they don't do food

Great Real ale pub with a good choice of beers with knowledgeable friendly staff 🍻

Overpriced, is my only criticism. Staff & customers pleasant.

Clean, smart looking, drinks were ok; However, 1 member of staff was quite rude. As a large group that spent a lot of money, you'd think they could be a little more polite.

Great looking place and beers and staff very good

A very cool craft beer bar in Maidenhead. So much so I've been two Saturdays running! There's a really nice buzz in there. The crowd is a little older as you might expect but that's perfect - there's no raucous behaviour. The bar staff are really friendly and very efficient and there's a wide choice of maybe 20 beers/lagers/stouts/ciders on tap with probably double or treble that in a big set of fridges.

Great selection of beers, ales & stouts!!!!

Really friendly staff who always help with suggestions on what to try. Great atmosphere and an amazing choice if beer that just keeps on changing so you are always trying something new and delicious.

Good selection of Beers and Ales

This place has been my go to spot in Maidenhead since it opened. The beer selection is varied and always quality, the staff are so friendly and funny, the music is flawless and the fact that you can bring in pizza from Knead next door (best pizza in town) is the cherry on top. The beer selection is unmatched and the fridge stock alone could have you browsing and tasting for months. We come here all the time but have also been here for Oktoberfest last year, talks from local breweries and will be at the Lego and Libations event in February for sure. Absolutely class place and a rare diamond in an otherwise dreary and soulless town centre.

Perfectly kept keg and cask, always an interesting mix on, loads from local breweries, decent bar snack selection, good range of seating options, genuinely good music playlists and at the right volume, clean toilets, tres knowledgeable and friendly staff

Highly knowledgable and friendly staff who will talk you through all the beers and the respected breweries on tap. If you are after bottles or cans but are overwhelmed by their selection, again just ask and they will help you select beer to suit your taste. Good prices and a warm and welcoming atmosphere!

Every time I’ve visited A Hoppy Place I’ve tried something different and never been disappointed. With the ability to buy from the fridge to take away is an added bonus. My new favourite Local.

Real ale from local breweries, craft beers aplenty. Busy, but check the prices, not the cheapest! No food BTW.

A fantastic selection of beers served by very helpful staff.

Great place, great selection of beers and expert advice!

A groovy craft beer bar with a great selection of beers and a relaxed, convivial vibe.

Great beer but staff were unhelpful and made no effort. We were the only people in the bar and they made no effort to talk so we’d have a good time and come back. For such a empty place, it was really surprising to experience this. It’s a shame as the beer was amazing, but staff are questionable. No wonder why we were the only ones in there!!!

Absolute gem of place. Everything is spot on- the beers and the people! Great place to sip some good ales and lagers. Highly recommend

Friendly staff, nice selection of beer. Not cheap though but that is the price one has to pay these days.

Friendly and a great selection of quality drinks for everyone, especially if you like beer

Clean bright and welcoming plus loads of brews to choose from ✨✨

Great to see a new bar offering lots of real ale and some great German beers

Decent pub in Maidenhead, with a great choice of beers. Quite close to the station, just a few minutes walk

It's a great bar with a great selection of beers but, but - I don't agree with charging more for half a pint compared to the cost of a pint. You want to be able to try as many beers as you want, not be penalised for only having half's or thirds. Bit naughty.

Excellent selection of beers. Lovely atmosphere. Staff were very helpful.

Ridiculously impressive array of brilliant beers to drink in or take away. Dog friendly and always a really lovely atmosphere.

Good service and a good variety of beers

Great craft beer stopping point at a great location. Good selection on tap plus 20% discount on takeaways 👍

I've been a fan of the Windsor venue for a while but don't venture there as much as I'd like to. So imagine my surprise when this turned up on my doorstep! I think it's in a great location, has a great space, an amazing selection of drinks and above all else the staff are always so friendly (in both venues I might at). Please check this place out if you're in the area you will not be disappointed!

We had such a fun night at Oktoberfest at A Hoppy Place Maidenhead. Great atmosphere, great staff, great beer. 😊

Great place to visit with Plenty of different ales to choose from. Tea and Coffee is also available. Staff very friendly and helpful. RECOMMENDED

First time visitor, but like the ambience and choice of beers! Will definitely return.

Great beer and knowledgable staff, had a great night

An excellent new addition to the Maidenhead beer scene. Same ethos as the original in Windsor but on a bigger scale. A great, inclusive bar, highly recommended.

Simply the best! As a long standing regular at Hoppy Place's original Windsor bar, it's terrific to see them expanding. Maidenhead has been crying out for a quality craft beer venue and now they have one - great beer range, dog friendly and passionately knowledgeable staff. If you love craft beer, you'll love this!

Been visiting this bar fairly regularly since it opened in the summer. Its located over the road from York Road football ground and is off the main high street. Its a decent size with a large bar as you enter and then a variety of seating areas. Its nice and bright, music is unobtrusive with no TV thankfully. There's also a nice run of outside seating although not much of a view and the area is still a bit under-developed. Hopefully one of the empty lots will get filled with a restaurant as the bar has no food on offer. Beer is king here and there's about 15 beers on tap that change very regularly and most are from smaller brewers, some local, some further afield but all pretty well known on the craft beer scene. Most is Keg but they also have 3 or 4 on cask plus some cider. There's also a large chiller section with cans and bottles. They do have wine and tea I think? The beer is mostly superb. For someone new to craft beer it can all be a little daunting I imagine and I have seen the odd person come in and look a bit confused but the service is really good, they know their stuff and are always happy to walk people through the menu and provide little tasters. All the beer is sold in thirds, two thirds, halfs and pints which can often be handy as some of it is pretty strong and can be a bit pricey by the pint; the cost of ingredients I guess. Bottom line though is, while not cheap, its excellent value and personally, I'd rather spend a little bit more on something new or challenging or just plain great tasting than pay less for the usual fizzy rubbish. All in all this place gets a big thumbs up. Its friendly, not overly loud, there's plenty of seating and the beer is tip top. If I was going to be picky, I'd like there to be a NEIPA or a Westcoast on sale all the time for about £6.00 and some kind of food offer would be great but you can't have everything! Its a much needed addition to Maidenhead and I wish it good luck going forward.

This is a great new bar in Maidenhead. It serves a range of beers including several from the local Stardust brewery. It is a small pub but there are plenty of tables inside and, when the weather suits, even more tables outside. The beers we tried were excellent and served well. One of our party wanted coffee and this was also good and came in a great mug
