About

Inside, the pub continues to honour its heritage while embracing modern hospitality: a carefully curated selection of real ales, craft beers and hearty British pub fare are served amidst an atmosphere that blends old‑world charm with contemporary comfort. Whether you’re a history buff, a craft‑beer enthusiast or simply in search of a quintessential London pub experience, the Hoop and Grapes delivers a memorable visit that celebrates both the city’s rich heritage and its lively present.
