Good Beer Guide

Butcher's Hook, Southampton

Improve This Listing

Opened in 2014, the Butcher's Hook is a micro-pub in a converted shop unit serving up to 4 constantly-changing cask beers, around 20 bottled beers and several craft keg beers.

Finding the Butcher's Hook can be challenging, but if you look for the street-side benches in front of the 'shop' behind the clock tower, then you will have found this Mecca.

Over the years this premises has been a butchers, with the original tiling and butchers rails still in place, an art supplies shop and also a florist. The compact interior (just just 3.5m x 9m) makes for a lively and sociable drinking environment with seating for about 24 people. There is no bar and service is standing up at the stillage. The Wednesday and Thursday sessions tend to be quieter but weekends can get quite busy and it's possible the real ale could be in limited supply by Sunday.

May occasionally close for private events - check social media for this and the latest beers available.

No food is served, but crisps etc. are available and customers are welcome to bring in take-away food.

Information for this venue is provided by the Southern Hampshire Branch of CAMRA
