Nice traditional pub with several rooms and outside areas for smokers and sunny days. Not a fan of Robbies Unicorn but the Double Hop here is a great pint and better value for its strength/price. Like most town centre pubs it has a very varied clientele througout the day and is usually bustling and lively, a testament to its popularity in the current economic gloom. Food is excellent, try the cod and chips or steak and ale pie if it's on the menu. Lastly a mention of the staff, who I have always found friendly and efficient.

A traditional pub with great food and well kept beer. Coal fires in the winter. Great beer garden for drinking, dining and private functions on sunny days. I understand it was runner up in CAMRA's UK pub of the year a few years back as well as winning the Manchester Food & Drink Festival pub of the year. I live 2-3 miles away but it has become my local! Great Quiz night on a Tuesday and relaxing muted Jazz on Monday nights. Weekends can be busy and there are often private functions, usually in the beer garden. Soup and sarnie combos are great value but it's all too easy to be tempted by the specials of the day..I know as I eat there at least once a week. Best to book a table at weekends, but you can enjoy restaurant food at pub prices served by friendly staff.

I've visited this pub twice in the last few weeks. The first visit was on a week day, where we enjoyed a superb, if pricey, lunch. The staff were very organised and attentive. The pub had a warm friendly feel to it, and the guy who I assumed was the Manager was exceptionally welcoming.
The second visit was on a Friday evening. What a contrast. The noise was overwhelming, mostly as a result of the music being far too loud and people then having to shout over it. Some of the customers seemed unable to communicate without using foul language at the top of their voices. After a single pint we decided to leave for somewhere more civilised, which unfortunately meant we had to venture further than Stockport town centre.
I would recommend this pub as a lunchtime venue, but certainly not for its evening offerings.

A very interesting interior as already documented. Two real fires give great warm to the whole thing. I am surprised it wasn't busier for my visit (although I hadn't announced it).

I am not a connoisseur of Robinsons so my comment on condition would be superfluous - but it was drinkable - there seems to be such a close band of variance with their beer range.

Should be included on a visit to the area, not just for the tickers.
