Hophaus is a contemporary interpretation of a traditional Bavarian Bier Hall – a simultaneously recognisable yet entirely different food and beverage experience.

The appreciation for fine craft is expressed in every element of the venue, from the glazed brick bar, oak timber panelling, and bespoke lighting. The bar, lounge, and dining room can operate independently or be combined to provide a large variety of experiences depending on customer requirements, private functions and calendar events.
