About The Hop Shop

From The Hop Shop's own website and its Google listing, read October 5, 2026.

The Hop Shop is a beer store and bar on Lamar Avenue in Charlotte. Its website calls it a coffee shop for beer. The idea is a relaxed room where you can sit and talk, or grab a bottle and go.

Google describes it as a laid-back bar and bottle shop with a rotating selection of craft beer in a modern setting. Google also lists it as a wine store. The website invites you to bring a book, friends or your dog.

The website says the shop began in 2016 as the vision of Patrick Villafane. Around 2020, longtime regular Jeff Turner and his friend Paul Cook turned a drink together into a plan to become business partners.

The site says you can grab and go or stay and play. Google lists a wheelchair accessible entrance and wheelchair accessible parking lot.
