Queens Head

Independent free-house situated next to the railway station that markets itself as a “pub with personality” and caters for all types of pub users. The public bar area which includes a pool table and other pub games, is separate from the comfortable lounge area, whilst at the upper end is a restaurant style area, although the pub does good quality food without being a restaurant. Boules are played in the summer and darts, pool and crib throughout the year. There is a quiz on Monday, pool on Wednesdays and occasionally live music events. The pub is very dog friendly with a Yappy hour on the last Sunday of every month and an enthusiastic dog walking group that meets regularly. There is a large beer garden, with a separate children’s play area, another area offering undercover smoking large enough for 6 trestle tables, and an outdoor patio that also accommodates smokers. There is wheelchair access to the eating area and toilets but not to the bar and there is no disabled toilet. Located by bridge 75 on the Macclesfield canal, the pub enjoys direct access from the towpath. Accommodation, consisting of 3 rooms, is available in an adjacent cottage. The 4 regular beers are complemented by 3 rotating beers and one real draught cider.
