Hops: A Northwest Pub

If you’ve spent any time in New Westminster, you’ve probably heard about Hops, A Northwest Pub. Tucked just steps from the SkyTrain, it’s one of those spots that feels like home as soon as you walk in. The vibe is cozy and laid-back, with a woodsy interior and a covered patio that’s perfect year-round. Add in the fact that it’s dog-friendly — yes, they’ll bring out water and treats for your pup — and you can see why locals love it.

What really sets Hops apart is the beer list. They pour an impressive mix of Pacific Northwest craft brews — think Steel & Oak, Powell Brewing, Steamworks — alongside some well-known international picks. There’s always something new on tap, and their happy hour specials make it easy to try a few without breaking the bank.

The staff deserve a shout-out too. They’re friendly, upbeat, and quick to make you feel welcome, whether you’re a first-timer or a regular. It’s the kind of place where conversations start easily and you end up staying longer than you planned.

On top of that, Hops has carved out a niche as a community hangout with its weekly events. Trivia nights are always a hit, “Name That Tune” brings plenty of laughs, and Sundays are reserved for cult-classic movies with $2 popcorn. There are even board games on hand if you just want to keep things low-key with friends.

At the end of the day, Hops is more than just a pub — it’s a place to relax, connect, and enjoy a good pint in good company. Whether you’re meeting up with friends, winding down after work, or looking for a casual night out, Hops delivers every time.
