Great jazz last night huge turn out but only one girl behind the bar. No fruit juices, guiness, mild, dizzy blond, veltins or much else really. Great music poorpub.

A good atmosphere, good bands and friendly staff but badly let down by the beer. Robinsons beer is great if looked after properly but the Unicorn here is awful and each time I have been tempted back by a good band I and my friends have had the same experience. It has been mentioned to the licensee.

Great pub with some amazing bands. Staff are friendly. This pub & The Crown are the best pubs for Music!

Quite an arty pub in the market area in Stockport. This was our first pre football pub on Saturday. I believe the landlord opened slightly earlier for us, thanks. Three hand pumps with Robinsons beer; Unicorn, Hatters and Spellbound. Hatters was on good form and was very drinkable. I think it was the cheapest pub of the day at £1.90 a pint. Lots of mirrors and artwork around the walls of the pub.

Pubs Ok and some of the Bands are good. Saw a band called "Undercover" and have to say that they were Ok but would be better without the singer, she lets them down.

Yuk!Looked like something out of the Addams Family, with the mad monk behind the bar.
Only Robinsons Unicorn available on the hand pulls, tasted like vinegar.

The Bakers Vaults is THE live music venue in Stockport! The standard of bands is incredibly high, particularly on Friday & Saturday when it is advisable to come early if you want a seat. The music is usually Blues, Rock or Soul. So what if they don't stock Parsons Buttock or Throttled Ram - they keep an excellent Guinness!

Terrible absence of real ales, which is the reason one might find staff members in the Railway on Portwood.

Not a bad pub, usually has some local 'jazz sounds' emitting from the premises on a weekends. Not particularly brilliant but then again it is free entry and also free from chav's and 'herberts'.

Decent folk, decent pint and an old piano for your musical pleasure, providing you can play!
Worth a pint.

Well worth a visit.
A really splendid pub, most pleasantlandlord, fascinating interior, great heritage, formally the George and Dragon from about 1824, rebuilt in 1841 to enable the enlargement of the market.
Live music frequently,fantastic local groups play here.
Pity about the beer - only Robinsons real ale on offer - you either love it or hate it [bad hang-over fare in my book, sadly!].
A guest ale would be 'magic'.
