Located just behind Stockport’s famous indoor market, with the front door facing the main entrance of St. Mary’s church (the churchyard was used as a location in the 1960s film "A Taste of Honey"). To the left is the bar and a standing drinking area, to the right is a larger room (originally two rooms) where plenty of seating is available for the visitor to take in the many photos that adorn the walls of old Stockport and its market. Up to five guest ales, typically from national breweries. There are blackboards with tasting notes to help pick the right ale for you. Described by licensees Sarah and Dave Wiltshire as a real pub for real people, serving real ale. Even the music is real, with "proper musicians" performing every Friday and Saturday. Simple, keenly priced pub food was introduced October 2021, including all-day breakfasts, jacket potatoes, traditional main courses, pizzas, and giant filled Yorkshire puddings on Sundays.
