Tuesday 24th January 2023 This is one of the best real pubs in stockport The beers in here are from small local interesting breweries. The pub is run by proper real ale enthusiasts and it is a brilliant place to place to drink great real ale Tuesday 15th August 2023 Again, we entered this grand real ale pub 6 handpumpd ales on offer great staff locals and landlord. The beer garden at the back of this pub secluded and a sun trap But the Beartown ales we had was superb well done all involved 5 stars deserved Saturday 1st June 2024 Today, I again entered what has to be an essential visit for real ale drinkers when drinking in Stockport. This pub does always 6 hand pumped ales on offer the land lord really knows how to keep his stillage There is always a great local following in I've visited this pub numerous times and have never been disappointed/read historical reviews. Please keep this pub to be an essential visit for real ale drinkers when coming to stockport. Tuesday 10th December 2024 This pub in Stockport I've reviewed so many times, and there is nothing new to add either on a minus or plus side. This pub is still when in Stockport an essential visit for real ale...

The best pub in Stockport (well apart from The Magnet and The Bakers, but all equally as good).

The female bar staff are all beautiful, sexy and have some seriously great dance moves (especially Ell, who is a legendary dance diva).

Oh, Hannah's alright as well, especially as she used to be the second best seller of Body Shop in the Stockport South region. Oh, and Sarah is awesome!

The cider is second to none, but I did like South West Orchard that they used to sell in Remedy Bar.

Ahh, Remedy Bar! How I miss that place, before it turned into that awful place called Dr Feelbad's.

Anyway, back to my review.

I've given this place 5 stars and I would have given it 5+, but I'm really unhappy about the log burner being for show only! I mean, who does that?!

Apart from the fake log burner, amazingly great and friendly place.

But THAT log...

Refreshing to see independent pubs like the angel opening and thriving in the market place. It's becoming a popular place to visit again socially. The angel is well run with efficient bar staff (no long waits to be served) but the only reason I missed a star out is because I find the real ale (my drink of choice) always seems a few degrees colder than other similar establishments. I have discussed this with a member of staff and they assured me at the time that the beer is kept at the correct temperature for cask ale. Maybe there's something cooling it between cask and pump, but it definitely affects the flavour negatively (for me personally). Otherwise a cracking town...
