I visited this place for a friend, who wanted a photo of the mural on the pub's wall. Having taken the photos, I went inside and found a lively atmosphere, even though it was a Sunday lunchtime. I had a beer, a most refreshing IPA and just watched the patrons enjoying themselves. I gather the food orders were running a little late that day, but nobody really seemed to mind that much! If you find yourself around Nettlestead Green, do drop in. There is a gallery section at one end of the pub where you can discover the story of Warrant Officer Blumer, the Spitfire pilot depicted in the mural. I think you'll be glad you visited.
The warmth of the welcome I received from staff at The Hop Pole Inn humbled me. Thanks for showing me round the pub.
The inside of the pub doesn’t retain its original character, which is a shame. It is though decorated in interesting maps and stories.
This free house offers traditional British dishes and I can happily report they are made with a modicum of care. That is all I can ask of any pub meal. The main course, the cod, was really flavoursome, the creamy sauce made it shine.
Prices are bang on. There is a lovely garden out back, which unfortunately I couldn’t appreciate given the British weather that day. There’s also a man/woman cave out back that has is furnished with sofas, TV and a pool table .
The outside doesn't do the interior justice. Beautifully renovated inside but with its original character.
Lovely landlord, food and also a bonus of a wonderful garden with children's play area. Well worth a visit and reasonably priced.
