The Bay Hop in Conwy

Another fantastic craft beer bar in Colwyn Bay. Visited a few times and the beer selection is always excellent and the owner is really friendly. It's also dog friendly and has an outdoor seating area. Recommended if you love sampling different beers!

Comprehensive range of beers, a great pub in Colwyn Bay. Definitely our regular place.

Something for everyone with this cask lineup, all fresh and excellent quality. Opening hours vary throughout the week so plan your visit accordingly.

If you're a real ale fan you will love it.

Great selection of beers. Very relaxed atmosphere

A great small taphouse, with friendly staff and great beers. A great, chilled atmosphere. Recommended!

Good choice of drink and atmosphere

A great little tap room in Colwyn Bay run by the very helpful Chris. He even let our well behaved collie Nell in for a sit down after touring around the local area. A great selection of craft beers on offer and looks like he puts on a few social and film nights as well. Definitely worth a visit to support your local independent shop.

Great beer with a chilled out ambience! Best way to drink that pint!

Great drinks selection and atmosphere. Always interesting and imaginative nights being put on but not so all-encompassing as to be off-putting if you simply want a quiet pint.

Gem of an independent micro pub. Nicely decorated, warm welcome, good selection of drinks.

Stopped off on the way back to Chester from Conwy. Short walk from the train station but worth it. Not the biggest place but plenty of choice in cask, keg or fridge form. Cozy atmosphere pity we didn't have longer before catching our train

A great find for a proper beer. Knowledgable barman, friendly and cracking beer

We visit this place everytime we are at Colwyn Bay we love it is very relaxed and friendly the beers and owner are great 🙂🍻🍺

Ace little beery spot. Great selection on tap and also in the fridges. Really lovely owner. Seating both inside and out. Just gutted we couldn't stay there for more than one drink. A must visit for beer lovers when you're in Colwyn Bay. The large beach is just a stones throw away too!

For the size there's a great selection of beers to try. Plenty of variety and some on offer are on the 💯 to try list.

Quite pub. With a nice atmosphere

It was our first time visit to The Bay Hop. Chris was a very welcoming host and although we we first through the door at opening time ( 4 pm) the small place filled up soon after with jolly regulars who come for a quiet pint and a chat. Pizza night on Monday's so must come back for that sometime soon. Thanks Chris.

Great choice of beers with no 'mainstream' lagers to be seen!🙂 You can even have a 2 or 4 pint bottle of your favourite draft beer to take home with you 😋

Fantastic Beer, nice relaxed atmosphere. Recommended

Always a warm welcome and decent beers.

Nice place with good beers and friendly service. Good music selection too. A few more chairs would be good. Standing room only last time we called in.

Always a great selection on offer at The Bay Hop. Well worth a visit 👍

Great selection of beers and at a reasonable price. Would recommend this place if you're in the area, won multiple CAMRA awards. Local beers as well as international beers stocked. Something for everyone here. Not a lot of seating but enough for a few groups of people.

Brilliantly kept beer. 4 cask pumps and a great keg offering. An excellent choice of Belgian bottles and plenty of Welsh beers. Friendly and knowledgable staff too.

Amazing pizza every Monday, fantastic range of craft beer, lovely atmosphere

Pleasant quiet atmosphere, and a great selection of beers. Will be going back.

Excellent range of beers and ciders

Cracking pub with selection of four handbills, all decent beers.

Great selection of beers with staff who are knowledgeable and helpful.Seating indoors and out.nice evening out

Great beer, great company, great atmosphere

If you visit Colwyn Bay, I would absolutely recommend checking out The Bay Hop. The owner is very friendly and the beer is excellent. Very atmospheric and reasonable prices.

Love it here. Small venue, nice staff and clientele. Great beers. Back in the game post covid.

Great selection of beers and friendly too!

Great beer and atmosphere! Highly recommended!

A centre for really good international craft beer. I always enjoy my visits and chatting with the owner who is very friendly and knowledgeable

Great atmosphere, great beers cask craft and 'world' beers. Dog friendly, a great destination.

Friendly welcoming environment lovely ales

Lots of new beers to discover all the time here, friendly staff, reasonable prices, snacks, games, and very chill and cosy.

First time I had been to the hop. When with 3 friends and a great time and beer is wonderful

Friendly welcome, great ales. Thoroughly recommended, cheers 🍻.

I can only add to all the positive reviews, this is a little gem of a bar, in conjunction with the Black cloak offering an excellent choice of beers! ( Cask & Craft). The cask I tried from Welsh breweries were truly excellent. The seating is limited so timing is everything! I must also add the three local heroes who feature on their pint pot design is genius.

Fantastic real ale tap House with a fine range of cask to boot. Well worth a visit for anyone in the area.

Great beers and lovely service, we shall return 😀

Great local pub, always have a wide selection of interesting beers. Well worth a visit!

It's strange but I have been in about a dozen of these so-called micropubs now and this review could apply to anyone of them . You know exactly what you will get is knowledgeable staff , quality beer , and in most cases a lack of a TV which encourages conversation. Makes me think thought. If they keep hopping up as numerously as at present , there may become a market for the fizzy beer , fruit machine pool table , bookies in a garage style building next door and them wierd little yellow pineapple type things in the toilet , style of pub .

Covid safe. Tables bookable. A couple of new tables outside. Small and friendly. Real beer and cider changes regularly.

As always, beer, which is what they do, excellent. Friendly host

Wonderful local business Lovely landlord. Great local beers.

Great choice of draught beers. Friendly staff. What more do you need?

Excellent brewery. Great ales and great camaraderie. Definitely go here again..

Lovely welcoming pub with great beers including gluten free and vegan

Lovely different beers to try changed every week

Great selection of beers. Difficult to get a seat at peak times. Great addition to Colwyn Bay

Great atmosphere, superb quality beers, who needs anymore.

The first time I've tried beers and this is the place to be Best pub award 2019. The Muriel of beer mats on the walls are in abundance a sight to be seen. The staff ever so friendly and informative. Well done defo go again.

Lovely place,great beers,good prices,nice atmosphere 😁

Interesting selection of ciders and even live music

Great bar. Good choice of beers and friendly atmosphere

Always a good selection of beers here and is one of my go to places for a pint.

Well deserved camra pub of the year three yrsrs on the trot

Pretty sure, this is the first micro pub in Colwyn Bay, and sets the standards for the rest to follow. Since opening, there have been different brews on, on a regular basis, occasionally they may have had repeat brews on. On one wall, is a map of the British isles, on which, is marked every brewing company, who's produce has been sold on the premises, plus the bar badges. Alcohol is sold on pump, in bottles, or cans, to drink in, or takeaway. If you like your ales, and ciders strong, they're available here. The ales available are pales, right through to the dark ales, in varying strengths and flavours. Furniture doesn't clutter the place, it is a micro pub, but there is enough seating inside, with a small amount outside. Always clean, always greeted with a friendly smile, been before, and will always pop back.

Fantastic micro-pub. Great choice of local beers, some wines and ciders. Snacks available, plus bottles and cans to buy. A must if you're in Colwyn Bay.

Great real ale and cider, knowledgeable and friendly staff

Really good range, great suggestions

Still the best pub in Colwyn bay!

A little micro pub with a good selection of Ales

This is a fantastic little micropub that has won awards through CAMRA and, if you have CAMRA membership, you get a discount on the ales. It's got a great atmosphere and Chris the owner is top notch. Love the place.

Excellent microbrewery pub for discerning adults

A pleasant place to have a nice pint indeed

Micro pub with excellent real ale.

Good mix of ales -cash only so visit the cash point on the way as it's worth it

Definitely worth a visit if you happen to find yourself in the Colwyn Bay area, a great range of Ales and Cider.

This is a little tricky! Real ale is a personal thing so sometimes I am disappointed by the selection on offer but at other times can be blown away. Tonight was brilliant but tomorrow could be different again. Still, if you love beer, like to take a chance and challenge your taste buds then give it a go!!! PS the pork pies are great too! Recently redecorated, looking very tidy.

Absolutely amazing place, always a massive friendly welcoming. A large ever-changing stock of bottles and cask ales and ciders all at a good price. Owner knows every beer he sells, and provides good information on its taste. Won numerous awards from camra which are well deserved. The locals and other customers help make this place be as relaxing or as social as you want it to be, and brings a variety of people together. Dogs and children are welcome which is nice. It holds many events including live music, quiz nights and a cheese night. If you fancy a pint or a night this is the place worth travelling to, and is a credit to chris, the staff and colwyn bay.

Good choice of beers. Good management and typical friendly microbar environment. Definitely worth a visit.

excellent micropub. Friendly, good beer

Good selection of ales and pumps get changed regularly

Excellent micro pub, great (and changing) selection of real ales, and lager and wines, together with a wide range of bottles. Comfy seating and lovely atmosphere. Note - closes very promptly, and serves no spirits.

Good beer and great company well worth a visit

Always good selection of beers and very friendly atmosphere
