The Little Hop, in its previous incarnation of the ‘Hop Inn’, was Swindon’s first micropub and began the real ale revival in Devizes Road. The small, brightly coloured, modern pub has five hand pumps stocking an ever changing range of beers. In the corner of the pub there is a well stocked bottle fridge featuring beers, often from the Bristol area. Local art is often featured on the walls and despite its small size it hosts life drawing classes on the second Monday of each month.

Historic Interest

This former sex shop was the original Hop Inn from 2012 to early 2019.
