NORFOLK NIPS | Pub of the Year & Club of the Year
PUB OF THE YEAR & CLUB OF THE YEAR The Hop In, North Walsham, is Norwich & District CAMRA’s Branch Pub of the Year 2020. Congratulations to Jane Edrupt, Nigel Davies, Richard Cornwall, Sue Squires and their team on winning the overall Branch Pub of the Year for 2020! Not only have the Hop In won Branch Pub of the Year 2020 but are also winners of Branch Rural Pub of the Year 2020. A jewel in the crown for North Walsham, The Hop In is a valued welcome to the local community and visitors of the market town. One of the best local transformations, this rare Norfolk micro pub offers a relaxed, friendly place to enjoy a good range of real
ales on gravity, bottled and foreign beers and real ciders. Richard and Sue decided to take early retirement in July 2020 and now Nigel and Jane are the co-owners of the pub. They are pleased to be joined by Julie Hillier in keeping the Hop In going during these difficult times. Richard Cornwall, previous joint owner of the Hop In, said ‘I just want to thank all our customers for their valued support. We are very pleased that the business has been so successful and that we have been able to provide a venue in North Walsham for real ale drinkers. It has been a big team effort and we have been helped by local breweries supplying a great choice of ales.’
