We have been going to the Brew Pub/JP Hops House for nearly 20 years and keep going back. Love the beer and popcorn. Jim & Pam are great down to earth and friendly people and the music is always enjoyable. I highly recommend this place to beer drinkers who like a relaxed and fun atmosphere, not too loud, and just the way we like it. Go see for yourself.

Dozens of beer on tap, tons more in bottles and stellar live music - what more would a beer lover want? Jim & Pam are wonderful hosts and will never leave you thirsty. Pam always has the place decorated for something – whether Halloween or Spudstock, there is always something on the calendar. And their support of musicians and the local community is outstanding. JP’s is a great place to meet old, or new, friends!

You'll want to check out this gem on the west side. It's the best place for live acoustic music with a great sound system and captivating talent.

Check out the events and holidays too, as Pam always has the place decked out with decorations, and other blings!

Jim and Pam are the best owners of any such venue in town. Come by and meet the family!

I've know Jim since 1986, and his wife Peggy for a shorter time. Their establishment is top notch for beer drinkers and fans of Blue Grass. Their beer selection is great and Jim is knowledgable about what he serves. The atmosphere is homey and once you've met the regulars they make you feel right at home. Keep an eye on the party schedule, they go all out for Halloween and do parties at the drop of a beer cap.

Very friendly pub with plenty of selections of beer on tap or bottle. It has a neighborhood friendliness but its music showcase make it a must see regional venue for Texas. While it has some influences from Nashville, it's not a country and western bar, it's....eclectic in scope is the best way I can describe it with jazz, folk, pop and cajun all showcased at various times and with open mic for amateurs. If you are looking for an easy, mellow time, this is the place.

This is just the right size with just the right people and just the right music; so enjoyable. And the beer? The selection of draught is magnificent. And the number of brands of bottled beer is vast. The live entertainment is such a welcome change from nearly everywhere else; it's SO much better.

I have been patronizing the Hops House since 1991 and have seen it through many incarnations and more than one owner. I even met a future ex-wife there. I now bring my next future wife with me. I recommend the place to anyone looking for a laid back establishment with lively conversation rather than loud overwhelming sports noise. They have a nice outside beer garden too. Get to know the regulars and they treat you like family. Jim knows his beer and Pam knows everything else. Get to know them and you'll be back.

"Awesome" is an overused word. This place feels very warm & friendly & safe. Music is performed and written by real people about real life. Come see for yourself. I'm glad I did! Immaculately clean everywhere. It's a great place to be!

JP Hops House is a wonderful venue for aspiring and seasoned musicians alike. They offer great service, a variety of beers of tap, and a nice stage with a great sound system for perfomers. Well ventilated, when I came home from the bar my clothes did NOT smell like cigarette smoke. There is a beautiful wooden patio deck in the back of the bar where you can get a breath of fresh air and check out the stars on a clear evening. I give JP Hops House a perfect 10!

Check out the new JP Hops House website. It includes a good example of the ever-changing beer list and the music calendar.

The former manager of the Hops House, Jim Fowler, has now become the owner of JP Hops House. Jim has remodeled the pub, put in a stage, and is now working on making the west-side beer paradise into the premier acoustic showcase outside the loop. Great beer served in imperial pints, attentive service, and friendly regulars are still the draw at JP Hops House. Check out the best open mic in town (sponsered by the local chapter of the Nashville Songwriters and the Houston/Fort Bend Songwriters) on Sundays. There is acoustic music on Wednesdays starting early at 6:30. A variety of music can be heard on weekends, from classical guitar to acoustic blues. Oh, and beer? 24 or so beers are on tap, and around 200 varieties are in bottles. Check out the fantastic tap handle collection! JP Hops House is still a Houston gem, and getting better!

This place has quite an established reputation throughout Houston's homebrew and beer enthusiast community. There is alot of history here; it has been in business for decades and was the original location for the first annual Dixie Cup Homebrew Competition, which has now outgrown the bar and become an interstate level event. Eventhough they have a small drought selection, this is one of the better beer bars in Houston. They also have a very unique collection of old tap handles displayed around the room.
