Busy locals pub about half a mile from Wilmslow centre, presented with a Community Pub award by CAMRA in July 2011. Attracts mixed range of clientele. Sells good range of real ales. Lounge and vault downstairs together with 'Alpine' and 'Cheshire' suite rooms. Characterful local with a number of separate rooms, including a vault, secreted behind the finely etched front windows. The front lounge contains a large, Boddington's mirror (from the good old days!) and a working piano. The rear lounge displays three fascinating paintings of Wilmslow, Macclesfield and Cheshire. The darts room is lined with wooden-panelled benching and the main wall is adorned with an ancient pair of skis. An additional room is available upstairs, and can be used for functions. Previously famous for its Boddies (Boddingtons Bitter) which remained on the bar after the purchase by JW Lees, however the cask version is no longer brewed. Dogs are welcome in the Alpine bar and vault.
