Events

Stagger - Hazel Grove North Friday 19 September 2025 Tonight's stagger takes in the northern, ie Stockport, end of Hazel Grove and strays into what is often claimed to be Great Moor or even Offerton.
Pub of the month - Victoria, Withington Thursday 25 September 2025 20:00 Beat the students - The Victoria is in the middle of bed-sit/student house land so gets very busy in term times, but it will be a lot quieter tonight - except for the quiz.
Macclesfield Outing (Including MIld Magic brewery visit) Saturday 27 September 2025 12:45 Today a select group of persons (you should know who you are) are partaking of a tour around Bollington Brewery - NOTE: Meet an hour earlier. We have decided to invite everyone who desires to join up after that tour, when we will be visiting a few select outlets in Macclesfield on the way home.
Weekday Wander - On the trail of the black pudding Wednesday 1 October 2025 10:45 What is Bury famous for? Its market and black puddings. In the market there are two outlets, one world beating, the other highly commended. However the real target are a few of the more historic pubs, covering two Grade II buildings, a railway station (with steam engines) and a picture house.
Stagger- East Didsbury and Heaton Mersey Friday 17 October 2025 19:30 This is a new route starting at the Gateway in East Didsbury and wending in a westerly direction to finish at the Crown (Pub Of The Year 2025) in Heaton Mersey.
Pub Of The Month - Armoury Thursday 23 October 2025 20:00 Pete Johnson and Holly Scotts took over in October 2024, just in time to experience a few travel restrictions. Don't worry the dray lorry can still get through so come along and see for yourself what they have achieved.
Weekday Wander - Off to the land o' cakes Tuesday 4 November 2025 10:40 We are off to feast on Chorley cakes (and a several beers). Don't, however, upset the locals by saying they are like Eccles cakes, otherwise we may have to make a hasty retreat. All seven pubs are in the Good Beer Guide (as of August 2025!)
Winter Warmer Wander Friday 14 November – Sunday 28 December 2025 A five week long pub trail wandering around collecting stickers for drinking winter ales, namely Stout, Porter, Old Ale or a Christmas Ale.
