The best pub in the Aylesbury area for real craft beer. Staff are the best I have come across, friendly and knowledgeable. And the food, the best Sunday roast around get in early because when it's gone it's gone. Not to mention all the other food available through the week. You will not get better. 5 stars is not enough to sum this gem up
Excellent range of real ales all well kept, recommend the burgers as well. Pub with a great atmosphere really recommend it. 5*.
Had Sunday lunch yesterday with 7 good friends for my husbands Birthday. We all loved the meal, everything was fresh, hot and tasted fantastic. Eight clean plates left at the end. Thank you to the chef and friendly staff who made my husbands treat enjoyable. Definitely be going there again.
Incredible beer and such a selection. Craft beer at regular beer prices. Very friendly staff.
Had a lush Sunday roast yesterday. Great choice of lamb,beef or chicken, with great roasties, brilliant yorkie and the best cooked veg I have ever had with a roast. We then shared a fab chocolate brownie and vanilla ice cream that was to die for! And so reasonably priced as well. We will be back, why can't it be Sunday today!
Lovely meal as always. Went to Miller & Carter paid 3 times the price for a meal that wasn't half as good.
Worked our way along the pumps, halves of course just like a beer festival. Good range from traditional IPAs to American IPA, regular bitters and a stout. Not to mention the Belgian draught Tripel at 8.4%. All sensibly priced and well kept. In the GBG on merit.
Best pub in Aylesbury without a doubt! A proper traditional pub!
I loved it, the food was great pub grub served with a smile and the beers and wine were great. Not sure about the Yukele Jam all evening but thorough enjoyed our first experience, we shall return.
Gorgeous food and lovely service. Would recommend highly!
I organised a surprise 60th birthday party here for my brother for about 25 people. They have a lovely separate back function room with a curtain so this was easy to do.
Ian the manager and his team arranged an excellent buffet, great food and good value. I was allowed to do some decorations and balloons and lots of embarrassing photos.
I was also allowed to supply my own cake which was hidden away until needed.
My brother had a brilliant night and against all odds it was a a surprise.
Thank you Hop Pole we had a brilliant time. Denise Roberts
Lovely beer served here, very accommodating ( at the uke jam ) welcoming staff �
I went to the Hop Pole last night for the first time, it was recommended, we went to watch the Aylesbury Uke Jam, everybody was very friendly, we have been invited back to have a go, hopefully in April with our own Ukekele, we had a lovely evening..
This was my first trip to the Hop Pole and I only wish I had discovered this hidden gem earlier. An excellent range of real ale and craft beers and friendly atmosphere. I would fully reconend a visit.
Love the hop pole , great staff, fantastic beers, just a great place to be with friends and relax.
One of my locals.
Staff are always friendly, local seasonal ales.
Great pub food, along with regular pop-up kitchens including Thai and Caribbean. Only tried the pub/Thai foods but both were excellent with good portion sizes.
Honest British pub, excellent range of ales on offer, all of them are exceptionally well kept by the landlord.
If you like beer, then there is no better pub in Aylesbury.
Was our first time here and won't be are last amazing place whis had used before amazing customer service and also bug thanks to the chef who we briefly chatted to your food is amazing we will be back for sure recommend to all to try thanks all for a great night back soon 😀
First visit since lockdown, five real ales on tap Gravitas in good form. Ian has introduced sensible and well considered Covid controls.
Friendly staff and relaxed welcoming atmosphere. Always a good selection of craft beers.
Very busy and warm and welcoming. Service was excellent and drinks priced good. Food looked good.We were eating out at the new Japanese restaurant. We will try the food here next time when we come down to visit family again.
Good range of cask ales, including a selection from Vale brewery and a couple from the on site brewery. On site brewery no longer operates. A larger range of guest ales now available. Usually an even split between Vale and guest ales these days, mostly rate offerings. Also a good range of Belgian bottled beers
Great Sunday roast and really good real ale .
Lovely traditional pub with good selection of Ale's. Very warm and cosy with good food menu. Check out their Sunday Roasts, very yummy 😋
The best craft beer place around. I love this little pub, always bring friends who are visiting here. I am looking forward to visiting during the six nations 🍻👍🏽
They have a good selection of beers, and the food looked good. Although we didn't eat.
Landlord keeps beer well always go to watch the rugby - like a country pub in town
We had a family meal here. Nice friendly atmosphere. Lovely food good service, we will return
If you wanted a bit of peace and space the lower back bar was the place to be. Love that they have sanitizer right by the door.
Lovely atmosphere it feels like a cosy country pub in the heart of town. They have lots of live music and monthly vinal night, quizzes ect and yummy food
Great pub with good service and choice.
Loverly place, nice staff, good food.
Really friendly team great craft beer selection.
This is my local and my regular. The beer is good, wide range of real ale, including from the micro brewery, and good range of continental bottles as well as lagers (and unfortunately Carlsberg, which isn't the landlord's choice). Also a wide range of spirits, rather than just bog standard pub ones.
The food is fantastic, especially the burgers. Sunday is a really good roast with 3 different meats.
Quiz on Tuesdays, with a possible top prize of £200, as well as beer tokens.
Regular gigs which are worth going to, vinyl night occasional Sunday, and a beer festival 3 times a year.
Staff happy to help with beer selection, and if they can't help you some of us regulars more than happy to stick our two pence worth in!
Fairly quiet when we visited on a Sat afternoon. Attentive landlord served us some nice Vale beers, and a really nice meal. I have used this pub prior to Covid-19 many times before, and is my goto pub in Aylesbury. Covid Safety was taken seriously, and both my wife and I felt perfectly safe. Thank you.
