Cheshire Cheese, Buxton

Great pub with a good selection of beers on. Everards Tiger, Mobberley Sidekick and Elysium alongside a range of 4 Titanic beers. The beers i tried were excellent. Well worth a visit.

This is a Project William pub, owned by Everards, but leased to Titanic. Lots of small nooks and crannies even though it's all one room really and two real fires at either end of the pub. Flag floors add to the attractions along with a cosy feel throughout. We got a friendly welcome at the bar where there were several Titanic beers, a couple of guest ales and of course Everards Tiger. My pint and Ms CAMRA's half were both in good nick. It's quite rightly in the GBG 2022. Very dog friendly, there were several in during our Sunday afternoon visit. They were advertising a quiz for later that evening as well. We both liked this one and will call in again next time we're in Buxton.

Admitting from the start that my first impression of this place was right down at zero because the functionary at the door demanded both manual form completion as well as the NHS Test and Trace app that I had already done while she was watching. Anyway, apart from that annoyance, this is a perfect decent, old-school Titanic Brewery alehouse, but in these difficult times, why make things difficult for those customers making an effort to visit your business? PS - My pint of Steerage (£3.30, and one of eight beers on offer) was excellent, but I'm still knocking a couple of points off my score.

Nice, old school Boozer - Tied to the Titanic Brewery and in the Good Beer Guide 2021. Plenty of staff on, now they are open indoors. Near full range of the Titanic set on - the Anchor was my preferred out of that and the Steerage. A very clean traditional bitter. Good staff, nice punters - a very pleasant experience.

Visited yesterday. Currently outdoor seating only, and you enter via the car park to the right hand side of the pub. You are greeted at the beer garden and allocated a table. You are prompted to scan the QR code if you have the app, otherwise your details are taken the old fashioned way. Table service was efficient and the lady serving me knew exactly what was on cask when I asked, without having to go and check. To my delight they had the Titanic Plum Porter Grand Reserve on cask, at a very reasonable £2.25 for half a pint. The grassed beer garden consists of at least 16 tables, with a large circus tent type thing covering 6 of those. My first pub visit of 2021 and it felt like a slice of normality!
