Best Last Call FREE pizza. Yes, Hoops has FREE pizza at last call!!! Its a great way to finish the night hanging out with Joe Smith and The Fables. The Jukebox selection is outstanding... It has every Grateful Dead album ever! Possibly the BEST neighborhood bar in the USA.

A good selection of bottled beer, televised games and live music make this a popular sports bar.. The Scene
Hoops & Hops is fast becoming the sports bar hot spot in the Hartford area. On a typical Friday night, you'll find a mixed crowd of young locals gathered for live music or enjoying decent piped-in music around the main bar. Outside, you'll find a second bar where the live bands are featured. Covered and heated in the winter months, this outdoor area is transformed into a tiki-style cabana when the weather gets warm.

The Booze
Hoops is known for their selection of bottled beers, so if it comes in a hand-held container—they've got it.

While You're There
As for TVs, there are scads of 'em, inside and out. Fans can enjoy the best of the NBA, Big E and all other in-season sports here.
