Why Hop Yard 62? As Zane Lamprey said it in one of his Chug episodes, "craft beer is all about bringing people together that share a common interest."​ We used to go to the typical bars, but about 2 years ago we discovered craft beer. We started going to this little place called The Garden Café on Broadway in downtown Grove City. We felt welcome right away and knew this was a different kind of place, not the typical bar crowd. It felt a little more sophisticated and we started meeting new people right away. The owners at the time, Will Roberts and Carol Alberts were amazing! They made the place extremely successful and made everyone feel at home. Unfortunately, that little café was sold and since then things have not been the same. The entire community misses the fun little craft beer bar, the place where life long friendships begin! So,,,,we bought the bar! So how did the "Garden Café" become "Hop Yard 62"? "Hops" is one of the key ingredients in craft beers and was grown in Ohio until the early 1900's. Currently, a Hop Yard Plot is being tested in Wooster, OH and features a quarter-acre setup designed to research about 10 varieties of hops. 62 is a reference to the state route that runs in front of the current location of the bar.We hope to bring the locals back to the place where it all started. We hope that people will enjoy a pint, take home a growler, or just hang out for a while. We would also like to celebrate veterans more than one day a year since the partnership includes a 7 year U.S. Marine veteran and a 4 year U.S. Army veteran!
