Travellers Call in Stockport

Ah, Travellers Call – it's one of those neighbourhood pubs that really grows on you once you step inside. From what I've gathered, the staff are absolute gems; they're polite, efficient, and seem to genuinely care about making your visit enjoyable, which always lifts the spirits on a quiet night out. The drinks menu is a highlight too, with some top-notch beers that hit the spot just right, and that beer garden is a proper treat when the weather's on your side – imagine settling in with mates for a chat and a cold one. Plus, it's spot on for functions; whether it's a birthday bash or something more sentimental like a wake, they've got affordable buffets that cater to all tastes, making it a go-to for local get-togethers. On the flip side, though, it's not without its flaws – I've heard tales of pints not pouring quite as they should, with excessive froth leaving you short-changed, and that minimum card payment rule can be a real bother if you're caught without cash. Overall, it's got that charming, unpretentious feel that's quintessentially British, but it does have a bit of a rough-around-the-edges vibe that might not suit everyone. If you're in Stockport and fancy a pint in a place that's trying its best, I'd say give it a go – it's got more ups than downs, and that's saying something from the folks who've been there.
