Hop Gardens is a small street on the western side of Covent Garden, set off St Martin's Lane in the block near the theatres and Trafalgar Square. It is a short, quiet way, narrow in scale and enclosed by the surrounding buildings, of the kind that threads between the larger streets in this corner of the district. The name recalls an older use of the ground, a reminder that this part of London was less densely built in earlier centuries, though the street today is fully part of the West End fabric. Hop Gardens carries a modest mix of premises, including hospitality serving the passing trade from St Martin's Lane and the nearby theatres. Its position places it close to the concentration of playhouses around St Martin's Lane and within easy reach of Trafalgar Square and the transport links there. The street has the tucked-away feel common to the smaller ways of Covent Garden, offering a quieter pocket a short step from the busy theatre streets. Its interest lies in its evocative name and its survival as one of the district's small connecting streets.
