Grove Alehouse Pub in Stockport

145 London Rd, Hazel Grove, Stockport SK7 4HH

About This Pub

Ah, let me tell you about the Grove Alehouse – it's one of those hidden gems in Stockport that just warms your cockles on a chilly evening. From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, the owners are absolute stars, always on hand with a smile and a chat about their impressive lineup of real ales and German brews, which really sets it apart in an area full of more generic spots. It's perfect for kicking back with friends over a pint, soaking in that cosy vibe that's so inviting. On the flip side, though, it's a shame it's not open all day or every day, as those limited hours might catch you out if you're not planning ahead. Still, for anyone who loves a good, honest pub experience without the crowds, it's well worth seeking out – just pop in for a taste and see what I mean!

Pros and Cons

Pros

The staff and owners are incredibly welcoming and friendly, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
They've got a cracking selection of real ales and German beers from small breweries, which is a real treat for beer enthusiasts.
It's a cosy, warm spot that's unique in Hazel Grove, standing out from the usual chain pubs along the main road.
The atmosphere is just spot on for a relaxed evening, with good vibes and knowledgeable folks who know their stuff about brews.

Cons

It's only open in the afternoons and evenings, typically from around 3 PM, so it might not suit those after a morning or lunchtime visit.
With just five days a week of operation, you might find it closed on some days, which can be a bit of a letdown if you're planning a spontaneous trip.
As a micropub, the space is on the smaller side, so it could get a tad crowded on busier nights.

As soon as I walked in, I was welcomed by one of the owners. Both were in and it was a warm cozy vibe. Their selection of German bottled beers was impressive, with 4 cask/ 4 keg to choose from. It's one of a kind in 'the Grove' and unique to the area. Given it's a sea of Robinson's pubs along the A6, this brings quality drinks and old skool local warmth.

Saturday 8th June 2024 Today, I had a good fortune to be in this grand little real ale micropub This pub had some excellent quaint beers on from small breweries. There were good local followers of real ale beers. The staff/owners were really good and knew their real ales. There was also a smashing quiet real ale outdoors drinking area at the rear of the pub. The best real ale pub in Hazel Grove by far

It is several years since I visited the Grove Alehouse, so I wasn't sure, given the parlous state of the Pub world these days, if it would even still be open. However, I am pleased to report that The Grove is still alive and well, and living in Hazel Grove. I met and chatted with landlady Ange, and a couple of regulars, and learned that Ange and Scott had taken over a year ago, and had been running successfully since then. I tried a couple of the hand-pulled beers - Little Critters 'White Wolf' APA, and Portobello 'Tropical Crush' Mango and Passionfruit IPA. Both very nice, good price (under £3.50 a pint) and friendly and attentive staff. I look forward to my next visit.
