Afternoon guys 👋🏼

We know it’s late in the day but we’ve made the decision to close for the day. It’s hot and we’ve found a fantastic place to sit by the canal at canalhousebar.

Cassi’s drunk, Michael’s drunk, Tracey’s drunk & Dec’s sanity is slipping.

We apologise profusely. But also we’re having a fantastic time and don’t care 🙌🏼

Enjoy the match. It’s coming home 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

⚽️🍻 Important announcement! 🍻⚽

We will be closing our doors from 7pm tomorrow as we swap pulling pints for pulling on our England shirts and cheering for the Three Lions 🦁

We will be back open on Thursday as normal 🍻

Fingers crossed it’s coming home 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

🇬🇧 We’re celebrating Armed Forces Week 🇬🇧

Today we commemorate and pay our respects to all those who have served, and those who continue to serve, in our Armed Forces.

To mark the occasion, we’ve been serving Victory Ale from RBAbrewery over the last few days - a fitting beer for today’s celebrations.

If you’d like to come along, enjoy a pint of Victory Ale, and join us in celebrating this wonderful day, we’d love to welcome you.

🍺 Open until 10:00pm
⏰ Last orders at 9:15pm

Some of you may of seen a post this morning from Cllr Steve Hassall regarding a planning application submitted for a micropub in the Allestree area.

We are pleased and excited to announce it is us who have submitted this planning application

We are hoping to expand our family business and bring something new and exciting to Allestree and the surrounding area.

Everyone who has visited ourselves or The Hoptimist - Draycott will know what we are about and what we could potentially bring to the area

Finally just to be clear, nothing will change at either of our pubs, in Draycott and Spondon ❤️

Much Love
The Hoptimist Family

Another scorcher of a day today! ☀️

Just a little reminder that our lovely outdoor garden area is well shaded and stays beautifully cool. So if you’re feeling a bit hot and thirsty, why not pop in and relax with a drink in our quiet, friendly garden?

We’d love to see you. 🍻🌿

Quiz Night is still on tonight! 🎉

We’ve got the cold air chillers running and the fans on full blast, and it’s actually pretty comfortable in here now, especially around the front of the bar.

We know it’s been a hot one, so as a little thank you for braving the heat, we’ll have a free ice pop waiting for all our quizzers tonight! 🍦

Hope to see you all later for a great evening of questions, laughs, and a bit of cooling down! 😎
