I don't actually know what Henderson and Glass is. Ive heard people mention it, but that's about it. Couldn't tell you where it is. Douglas stuff.

It's a cafe/bar effectively, also in Castle Street on the same side just a few doors down from Hops, going north. It's just after the alley next to the Strand Centre that leads up to the vaccination place.  I'm surprised it's lasted as that's the (even) more downmarket end of town, but they seem to have found their niche and there's others doing well in that area, which should give hope to Hops.

As Roger says, cocktail bar mainly in evenings although stock the odd other thing like the stout mentioned. Think that's in response to Hops being couple of doors along.

Does ok. Holds about 20 odd people. Coffee and little bit of lunch food during day.

There is no downmarket part in this city.

I asked for a Cortado in H&G, got a quarter pound of minced beef!!! Mis communication \i guess???

Good coffeee eventually, second visit, not so good! Changed their coffee I guess? Why?

You’re obviously as incoherent in real life as you are in here.

I think I need to get into Imperial stout.  

Scored this in Tesco last night.  Not sampled yet, but heading towards Imperial strength @ 8%.  Pretty reasonable too £4 and were on 4 for 3 deal. 

Northern Monk Chocolate Fudge Brownie Stout 440ml

I have one somewhere.

Haven't heard great things about it and will likely stay in the collection for a while.

M&S have a decent selection these days too if you're trying to get into craft beer and at a more reasonable price point than the specialist craft beer places.

Was in Sam Webbs once. Some locals offered me a game of pool, which is fine. Then they started cheating, cos they were losing. Not been in since 😄 

Can get very boisterous in there on weekends & that’s putting it mildly!!
