Hop Lab

Rio de Janeiro


This beer-lover’s paradise offers 30 draft beers on rotation – more than any other bar in Rio – many of which are locally brewed. The English-speaking waiters are certified beer sommeliers, ready to provide guidance and recommendations to curious or indecisive customers. Hearty staples such as burgers and croquettes should keep the hungry drinker satisfied.

Hop Lab is located on Rua Barão de Iguatemi, home to enough quality eating and drinking options to easily justify the taxi/metro ride from Zona Sul.
