Set inside a rustic barn on a working Northborough farm, Hoppy Hour trades the city’s rush for a slow, cozy morning of warm drinks, sweet treats and gentle animal company. Friendly alpacas roam the barn while bunnies wait in a quiet cuddle corner; baby goats are part of the spring mix, making this a short, accessible escape into pastoral life.
