Hop Kettle at the Dock is a craft beer taproom at Gloucester Docks with a proper waterside backdrop and a strong rotation of cask and keg lines. The Hop Kettle site highlights a wide spread across multiple lines plus cocktails and spirits for anyone not in a pint mood. Gloucester Food Dock adds the extra layer that makes it feel like a destination, upstairs views over the docks plus pop-up kitchens and events like quiz nights. Visit Gloucester describes it as a taproom with a dynamic food offer thanks to chef residencies, so it stays fresh even if you go back often. Tripadvisor reviews lean into the atmosphere and the big beer choice.
