About
The brainchild of founder Jamie Lawson, the Hop Wakefield born in 2008 was the Ossett Brewery’s first live music venue. The Hop combines traditional real ale, a fantastic range of drinks with a twist and live music to create an innovative vibe in Wakefield city centre.
The venue is located at the bottom of Bank Street in the city centre, only a 5 minute walk away from Wakefield Westgate train station. The building forms part of an historic conservation district in the city with its cobbled street, Victorian architecture and the Venetian Gothic façade of the neighbouring Unity Hall. The Hop Wakefield features a grand beer garden situated in its own private courtyard. The Hop’s front bar boasts an intimate and stripped back feel, with its bare brick walls and cosy real fire snug. There are 2 stages in the venue with the downstairs area featuring local cover bands every weekend and the upstairs area previously playing host to a range of top bands, comedians and performers such as Metronomy, Pulled Apart by Horses, Howard Marks, Embrace, John Cooper Clarke, John Richardson and Sarah Millican.
As well as the great live music The Hop is famous for, the venue stays true to its brewing roots with a great range of cask ales and craft beers alongside a variety of cocktails and a high quality wine selection.
