The Pursuit of Hoppiness in West Dorset

We called into The Pursuit of Hoppiness this afternoon.It was a fantastic experience.We were greeted and served by Val the Barman he made us very welcome and comfortable.His knowledge of the selection of Ales on offer was excellent.Although very hot and humid on observation he treated every customer with the same welcome and service.He is a real asset to the business.Will definitely return when we're back Bridport.10 out of 10 for and excellent experience👌

Loved it there, the two bar staff were brilliant, great beers and great service. Highly recommend.

What a great little place, very large selection of beers and wines. There is limited space inside but they make great use of what they have, there is ample space outside. I tried the sours and a few pales, loved them all. The staff are really nice and the locals are too. Get it on your to do list👌

While the range of beer is amazing, I’m afraid the offhand nature of the guy behind the bar left us feeling cold.We’re lucky to have some great independent beer shops where we live so were looking forward to learning more from this obviously popular place in Bridport and having a good natter with a fellow beer lover. Sadly, the guy behind the bar couldn’t have been less welcoming. We shan’t return.A massive shame.

Good choice of well kept cask/keg ales at good prices. Place is small and only takes card payments. It is worth a visit if you are in the area.

Great beer and we bumped into old friend's we hadn't seen for many years, 70 miles from home going the other way in this bar.

Great convivial bar, good range of ales regularly rotated, nice south-facing aspect with outside seating, right in middle of town. FYI...don't take cash, don't take Amex.

Wide variety of interesting and tasty brews. Had an excellent drink for a reasonable price.A great warm atmosphere, though the small seating area means things can get a little crowded.

Always love a quick visit to this place... Friendly staff and great Beers... Oh and they happily let us eat our own sarnies

Excellent and welcoming bar with interesting decor and friendly welcome. Knowledgeable staff. Great range of beers and ciders, also good wine selection. Lovely vibe. Tables outside on the delightful Bridport high street. Highly recommended. @WpubsGuide on twitter
