About This Pub
Ah, The Good Rebel – it's one of those spots in Stockport that I've heard mates rave about for its fantastic drinks and chilled-out vibe. From what I've gathered, the cocktails are a real highlight; they're well-crafted with clever twists that keep things exciting, and the beer selection, while not massive, has some solid choices like a good pint of Guinness. The beer garden is brilliant too – it's a proper sun trap, making it the perfect place to unwind with friends on a warm afternoon. The atmosphere feels cosy and indie, with great music adding to the fun without overwhelming you. On the flip side, though, there are a few tales of staff not being as accommodating as they'd like, especially if you're dealing with something like auditory sensitivities – that's a bit of a letdown and could spoil an otherwise enjoyable visit. Overall, it's worth popping in for the drinks and ambiance, but maybe go in with your eyes open and keep things light-hearted.

Albrecht brought me here for a first ever visit. No real ale but a good pint of Guinness. A good sized one room bar with a large sun trap beer garden overlooking the now closed original Robinsons brewery.
Lovely bar in Stockport which serves classic cocktails as well as lovely twists. All the drinks I had were excellent!
Disgustingly rude and discriminatory staff. All I asked was turn the music down so I can order and get to the beer garden. I explained that I'm autistic and have auditory issues. Basically was told that he didnt care.... Wonderful people you hire. If management is competent and want to figure out who they should give the written warning to I went there around 2:30 18/01/2025
Great little place hidden away in Stockport. The cocktails are fantastic and the beer selection is also really good. Friendly staff that offer great drink recommendations and a cozy, indie vibe to the place. Great music playing throughout. They also have a beer garden which is a total sun trap! A must go to place on a hot, sunny day
The Good Rebel is my favourite bar in Stockport. It has lots of choice on tap, with wine, fizz and very moreish cocktails, all ran by an incredibly hard-working team.
Plus they've returned this April with a brand-spanking new beer garden, which we drank in last Friday. Had a blast and very much enjoyed making my way through the extensive cocktail menu. Especially love the two for £10 cocktails!
Never disappoints.
