Harlem Hops,

2268 Adam Clayton Powell Jr Blvd, New York, NY 10030, United States

"So glad I decided to roll up above 125th street into Harlem. This will be one of my "must stops" whenever I'm in New York. The beer: About 15 on tap. I drank 6 of them. The place has a GREAT selection of craft beer. Appears to specialize in stocking a lot of smaller, but equally great brewers. I LOVE Hill Farmstead, Russian River, The Alchemist, etc. But there are a lot of smaller ones that don't get the love. The staff: SUPER knowledgeable. Told Amber, (I believe that was the bartender's name) what I was in the mood for and she gave me some great recommendations. "Lost Memories" is probably my new favourite stout. Attentive, but let me chill and drink. She knew when it was time to offer another suggestion. The vibe: Very laid back but with the right amount of hipness, without being "hipster". Harlem hip, not LES. Some good old school R&B in the background and there's a TV, so I assume you can catch a game there if one is on. Food: Don't go there famished. The food is more of the snacking variety. I had a nice braut and chips/salsa. Delicious. Served the purpose of keeping something in the stomach to at least slow down the absorption of 3 12.5 abv Imperial stouts. Best part...one can take beer away. So...I took a mixed six pack back home to sip. If you're a craft beer fan, and you're in NYC, stop by Harlem Hops. There's a location in Chelsea too."

"Lovely place to stop and get a beer when in New York or in Harlem. The selection was based on local beers that were either supportive of women own breweries or LGBT focused. The bartender was very kind and super down to earth! ! We'll be returning next time we are in town."

"The best bar in New York City. Hands down. Excellent selection, kind staff. Kevin the owner puts his heart and soul into getting a great selection of beer and the draught list is always fantastic. I cannot recommend this place enough - you will not be disappointed. And get the pretzel!"

"One of the best places in the city to get a great craft beer. The selection is broad, the flavors are delicious, and the staff are kind and welcoming. Combine this with their philanthropic efforts, and this place is definitely a must try!"

"The place is perfect for a beer with some friends. They have a lot of beers, not only draft but they have cans and bottles to stay or go. The good is ok, good balance for the beer."
