Sheffield-based award-winning speciality beer shop and tasting room Hop Hideout is moving to a brand new, intimate space, at Grade II* listed Leah’s Yard, in the heart of the city centre’s regeneration project. The building itself is an 1800s historic site, used for ‘Little Mester’ workshops in and around the world famous cutlery trade. The soft opening will take place on Saturday 24 August.
The move to Leah’s Yard will enable Hop Hideout to provide even more bespoke food and drink tasting events. Whether it’s ‘Meet the Brewers’, wine tastings, cider producer showcases and a whole host of collaborative events planned to take place throughout the year. It will also enable the community focused small business to cater for private bookings and functions, such as birthdays, work events, and celebrations. Which they love to be a part of.
Moving to Leah’s Yard was made possible by the generosity of Hop Hideout’s crowdfunder supporters. With the Crowdfunder hitting nearly £10,000 in May 2024, after adding a stretch goal to the total.
Hop Hideout celebrated its 10th birthday in 2023.
Jules Gray, Owner of Hop Hideout says:
“We’re excited to move to Leah’s Yard social hub at the heart of Sheffield showcasing the very best in local independent art, retail, food and drink. We’re so grateful to all of our supporters who have shown that the beer scene is alive and well in Sheffield. It’s a very exciting time to be opening our own premises once again.”
About Hop Hideout:
Hop Hideout was one of the country’s first “drink-in” speciality beer shops to exist on the high street. The shop started as a pop-up along Abbeydale Road, south-west Sheffield, just down the road from Abbeydale Brewery in 2013, later moving to a café space next door in 2015 and then to a city centre food hall space in 2019.
Now with more than 200 beers to choose from in a wide variety of styles, as well as cider, low intervention wines, kombucha and more, Hop Hideout remains one of Sheffield’s top locations for beer lovers to visit.
