Hop and Vine in Hillingdon

So much better this past year under these new owners, hence me changing my review, friendly atmosphere helpful staff good beer, what more do you need.

Always love a trip to The Hop and Vine

Impressed by the extensive selection of craft beers and the cosy, modern atmosphere. I've added it to my barguide.london site too!

Lovely little local wine bar, will lovely little garden area. Friendly staff, lots of choice of wines and craft beers.

Didn't have food, sure it's good.

Friendly staff with a quality beer garden to enjoy the weather, definitely coming back at some point.

Great pub, one of the few offering a wide array of (well kept) cask and keg beers and wine options. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting (the last time we were there we joined in with the monthly pub quiz). Definitely recommended.

The most beautiful pub in ruislip (I never leave)

Amazing all round, Mark is fantastic, keep it up H&V team!!!

Good range of constantly changing beers, all in good condition.

Great selection if beers, friendly service, also plenty of other drink selections eg gin. Excellent place for an afternoon catch-up.

Lovely little place. Nice for a drink or two of craft beers or ale. Staff friendly. If you ask for a taster they will let you try a bit . Recent quiz night was a good laugh . Hopefully we get a chance to go again

New management, just as good as it’s always been

Small bastion of sanity amongst chain pubs and sport bars. Good selection of craft beers, no blaring TV"s showing sports. You won't get a pint of Fosters in here...

Had a lovely pint of Manchester bitter Saturday night. Very friendly hosts and nice atmosphere

Amazing independent pub and great choice of beers 🍻

Amazing spot to try some new beers, great place to hang out with friends.

Great service, loads of beers, unique feel.

The Hop and Vine serves the best beers for miles around. Great wine too, and the owner Em is a real star. I can't rate it highly enough.

Fabulous beer and wine emporium. Nowhere else nearby can touch it. Family run and cherished by it's regulars. If you're a beer lover you wouldn't go anywhere else.

Its not a pub, more a bar, and deffo not a restaurant. It sells cask keg and bottles of various beers and ciders that you have never heard of. Our selections were lovely. Its busy but friendly, and somehow we found seats at the bar. The staff are jolly, attentative and know about their wares. Its not flashy, in fact vert down to earth, a bit like a bar in the French countryside? So oodles of charisma and because of that we enjoyed the visit. Give it a try.

Cosy and pleasant place with a huge choice of gins and beers (and other things) - working owners are always very nice

This is a great spot, the locals are very friendly and I’ve been coming here for three years i’m in most weekends and unlike the last poster have never heard any racist comments and certainly never any anti semitic remarks as I have four mixed race children I would be extremely annoyed. The Bar Staff are easy going and friendly. The beer is constantly changed with a wide variety of wines are available, come and judge for yourself. Dogs are also welcome.

There’s nothing better than enjoying an afternoon or evening at this wonderful local. The staff are tremendously helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. Their selection of ever changing British lager, ales, cider, and European wine is always enjoyable. There is nowhere else in town that we would rather spend with our friends or community.

Excellent range of kegs, different each week. Friendly staff, who spend the effort putting on regular events. Cosy atmosphere and definitely worth a visit if craft beer is your passion.

Great selection of ales, good friendly atmosphere

Went here for a couple of drinks with the mrs and in-laws before we went for a meal on the high street. Vast selection of beers, Ales and wines available. Very quiet atmosphere in here, we had a couple sat next to us and could literally hear every word they were saying. Too quiet and touch tight for my personal preference.

First time I have been here. The beers were really good ,really friendly clientel and the owners were so welcoming. Had a really good evening, so good to support a local business.

Wide variety of choice of beer from keg, cask, cans and cider. Very friendly staff. Clean toilet.

This has been our best discovery in Hillingdon. Such a great community bar with excellent staff and amazing local beer!

My favourite bar around. Proper service and knowledge of the beers. Give it a try and you will certainly be back for another visit. I can't stay away! Well done Ricky and Em for making everyone who walks in feel welcome.

So lucky to have this place on my doorstep. Great beers, excellent service by a hard working team, brilliant atmosphere. If you don't like this place there's either something wrong with you or you're simply having a bad day?

Great service, environment and staff. A lot of variety of craft beers and they regularly change their menu. A must see if you are in west London!

Visited with friends before heading across the road to Zaza for dinner. Staff were really friendly, sorted a table outside for six of us and super efficient with table service drinks orders. What a treat to have a gem of a place such as this in Ruislip. Oh, and the wine was fab too!

Excellent experience as usual. Well taken care of and plenty good local drinks

Great micro pub. Enthusiastic, knowledgeable and friendly owners. Good choice of beers and pleasant outside space

Excellent beer, nice and friendly staff what more could you want from a pub!

The gent who owns this micro pub is the friendliest person I’ve ever met. He replaced my beer without me asking because I wasn’t fond of it. He checked on us all night and recommended me beers, all of which I loved. Their snack are to die for, nicest pork scratchings going and the chilli nuts are amazing. Couldn’t have spent the evening anywhere nicer. Don’t miss out on coming here

A great bar with helpful staff who go above and beyond to ensure you always have everything you need whilst there! 😍

Great choice of beers, no nonsense what more can you ask for

Great beer and friendly place. The sort of place people just chat to each other.

A proper micropub. New to the area and have been waiting for this place to reopen for a while and it hasn't disappointed. Nice place, great atmosphere and really great staff. Cracking beer selection too. Everything that you want from a real pub. Can't wait to come back again, and again...

Great bar, friendly staff, and well priced great drinks

Best bar in Ruislip! Not only do they sell an amazing selection of beers and wine but it’s the heart of this community. Ricky and Emily have made this Ruislip’s only bar that’s worth a visit. Very rare you get such an amazing selection of drinks within a local bar with truly exceptional service!

Extremely over priced and no respect for social distancing guidelines!

Great service and amazing beers .

Excellent hosts supporting independent breweries. Covid complaint in every thing they do and ensure the customers adhere. Recommend this unique hostility to all.

The small but perfectly formed Hop and Vine has an ever changing menu of craft beers on tap and in bottles. The staff are very welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable about the beer. I believe they also sell fruit based beverages, but why drink wine when you have such a good selection of beers

Excellent staff and beer. If you need anything else go somewhere else coz we love it the way it is thank you.

Very nice bar with friendly staff.

Welcoming staff, lovely atmosphere and great choice!

excellent pub, staff are very friendly and beer is always good

Great place for a chilled British beer and a cheeky cheese board!

Always a great time there a mixture of clientele had a lo Ely eve

Fab little bar with a nice outdoor area, attentive and friendly service in line with COVID. Beer and Wine were great - didnt eat here this time.

Staff are super friendly with great service, and you get amazing quality for your money, always brilliantly range!

The missus and I went to meet friends here. They are locals and highly recommend it It's not difficult to see why. The bar has a good selection of ales, mostly local I think, but don't quote me on that. The service is friendly: drinks ordered where we were seated and brought to the table. Thoroughly enjoyable evening. The customers were a mixed bag but very friendly and relaxed.

Friendly well stocked micropub with good drink selection

they have a good variety of real ales straight from barrel

A lovely place, great selection of drinks, fab ambience, great to hang out with friends and have a chat. Very relaxed. Does get a bit cramped when there are too many punters, last night it was just right to hang out with good friends!!

Awesome micro pub! The best around!

First visit to Ruislip and it’s full of restaurants or gastropubs. This is a nice independent bar with great independent beers, including some from my locals in Yorkshire. The owner is knowledgeable and approachable. Most of these places cant compete with supermarkets (there’s a Waitrose, Sainsbury’s and Tesco within walking distance) and struggle when good local breweries get so successful that they don’t care about small retailers. Enjoyed an excellent IPA and Dark Mild and will take home a local American IPA to enjoy another time. Support your local. You’ll miss it when it’s gone!

Friendly staff, good nuts to go with drinks- funny but actually this is serious stuff. The beer garden is lovely too, obviously if the weather is good. My new local.

A great little tap room, with great real ales. And knowledgeable friendly staff

One of the best places to drink in London let alone Ruislip

I have visited a number of times and always find it a very welcoming place. The staff are very friendly and knowledgable on the craft beers and there is a great selection. The sunny beer terrace at the back is lovely.

Good beer, good nuts, good host. What more could you want? And today a street food festival. All in exotic Ruislip.

Well laid out. Fab choice in beers and the owner was very congenial

An amazing bar with friendly knowledgeable staff and a great atmosphere. 100% recommend!

Called in just as it was opening. Great selection of beer, the milkshake ipa was lovely. Nice courtyard garden as well.

Amazing range of beers, ciders and wines. The knowledge and attentiveness of the guys that run the place is superb. Always a pleasure to visit. 💙

Busy and great atmosphere tonight!

Great selection of beers and friendly staff.

Going to the Hop and Vine is more like going to have a drink at a friend's place than going 'out out'. The owners run the bar, so they know all about the drinks they sell and go out of their way to make guests welcome. It is a great place to go to chat to your friends, relax and enjoy a craft beer or speciality gin that you've never tried before. Wear your jeans and don't worry about what people think - this place is a home from home.

This fine establishment continues to evolve and is now attracting a very diverse crowd all joined by their shared love of great drinks and wonderful ambience. Love the place!

Great drinks and super super service

I'd given up thinking about going out for a beer in my frequent visits to Ruislip until I noticed this micropub. Friendly staff and up to 6 cask ales priced around £4.40/pint. I recommend drinking several halves of the range! Water and glasses on each table is a nice touch. This really is an oasis in a beer desert.

Superb ale, comfy atmosphere, just people enjoying themselves, what's not to like?

Such a lovely bar with a really charming atmosphere. Serving real ales, and gorgeous ciders etc, the staff are very knowledgeable about the ales. Would highly recommend, a lovely place for a few drinks and to relax

A local favourite. Independent beer house. Outstanding craft beer, wine and spirits. Friendly staff and clients.

If you like real ale and craft beer/gin, this is the place for you! So many to choose from. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff and no music or phones- heaven! Great local bar

What a great little real ale nugget in an otherwise corporate filled bland area. The owners are awesome and know their beers inside out. Amazing service with a smile everytime!

Compact venue, good crowd. Decent beer.

Great to be welcomed into an establishment and looked after. Friendly staff and great beer.

Absolute Gem. Owners are fantastic, great selection of beers. We have made it our local despite living in Uxbridge - the journey is totally worth it!

My favourite place, I go here every week. Great selection of beer always on (between 5 to 7 cask beers on at one time over the weekend, 2 keg and a cider or two) and two very friendly owners in Em and Ricky! Thank you guys, keep up the great work!

Great cheese board and very friendly and efficient staff

It's not a Pub or a Wine Bar so it's a Beer Bar really. Great selection of Beers, always chalked up on the board and knowledgable Staff will let you taste and guide you to what you like. There is wine and Gin and tonic as well as a few other non beers drinks. Can get loud as there are solid surfaces all over but very friendly and something different to most other places. Would definately recommend.

cosy compact friendly great wines & beers - fabulous - everyone so friendly a great atmosphere - really is a must

nice place to go during the week . great friendly service

My first and last visit here, arrived at 10.15 on a Saturday night having eaten at nearby Tapas. Placed drinks orders and 5 mins later were being asked to drink up. They then proceeded to turn 3 groups away saying they were closed although sign states 11pm closing and this was before 10.30! Lady in there was very cold and full of her own importance no customer skills at all. Other people arriving were all from the tapas too. The beer was nice and that is it. Wine Not cheap by any stretch and no ambience or atmosphere. It has been going for 2 years and surprised it has survived given the experience of tonight. We will never be returning.

Very nice place outstanding customer service , unique atmosphere

Great atmosphere, great beer and great staff.

You won't be dissappointed. Staff good. Drinks good. Atmosphere good. By good I mean outstanding.

Great staff. Make you feel very welcome.

Great place to meet and great selection of wine and real ale, I would spend more time here if it was open more.

Great beers, fantastic service, a real gem

We visited on a Saturday lunchtime and we were the only customers. There is no music - it was a bit awkward to start…

Great relaxing atmosphere, beers the best

Nice environment and good beer.
