The Hop, York

L shaped interior serving an extensive selection of real ale and "craft keg". Pizza served.

Well described by OB below and I have nothing else to add to it. The 9 ale pumps were all on, although only one was a guest, all the others were from Ossett or their subsidiary Rat brewery. We tried a couple of the beers and they were in good condition. We were here on a Saturday early afternoon and the whole place was very quiet, apart from a family in the pizza bit whose kids were having a bit of a shoutfest. It's OK for one but the bar and the barstaff are definitely lacking in character.

Called in here after enjoying a Brass Castle Bad Kitty at the Blue Bell, and was pleased to see a couple of beers from the same brewery on here, so enjoyed Brass Castle Cliffhanger and Snow Eater. They had the Ossett beers and a Rat brewery beer among the guests. Brilliant description below so saves me the trouble. Certainly a good pub to call in when in York, and the pizzas being served looked good.
