HAPPY MONDAY, PEOPLE! 🍻

As you're all aware, today is a big day for us as we officially take over our second pub – The Issiac Wilson in Middlesbrough!

First of all, we want to reassure everyone that things here at The Hoptimist will still be the same in many ways. We'll still be doing things the way we always have, you'll still see us around, and you'll still see all the familiar faces you know and love.

There will be the odd change here and there at The Hop as we continue to move forward, but nothing changes the passion and commitment we have for this pub and the people who make it what it is.

And don't forget, if you fancy a day out, make sure you come down and see us at The Issiac Wilson in Middlesbrough. Pop in, grab yourself a bite to eat, enjoy a drink and say hello. We'd love to see some familiar faces supporting us at our new venture!

We want to thank everyone who has supported us along the way. The Hoptimist is still a huge part of our journey, and we aren't going anywhere!

Here's to new beginnings, exciting times and continuing to make both pubs great places to be.

Much love, Phil & Jess ❤️🍻
