Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Petersgate Tap
Compact modern bar housed in quite a dull-looking converted shop, with relatively plain furniture and limited décor so the servery is very much the focus of attention. Up to cask ales in a variety of styles are on offer, and on this visit I found Abbeydale's Ruby Mild (£4.20), Neptune ESB, Nectaron from Mallinsons, Thornbridge Masham Ale and Lost in Mosaic from Loch Lomond. Always a reliable stop.

One of two Stockport pubs converted from betting shops (the other being the Wellington opposite the railway station) and recently changed to opening at 12 noon six days a week (closed Monday). This one has been open for a few years now and has won a number of Camra awards, including three in 2023 - branch pub of year, plus cider pub of the year and a special mild magic award. There was a mild on today, but at 5.8% I didn't fancy it for my first beer of the day just after noon. My pint of RedWillow Headless Olicana 3.8% was very good (NBSS 4). There are six hand pumps, with four out of six beers being 5% abv or higher, which limits my options if on a crawl; if living locally I would consider it a plus, but a £17:15 day return on the train doesn't make me a local, unfortunately.

A worthy shop conversion with a mix of cask and KeyKeg, plus some ciders on offer - quite a fair selection and reasonably priced. It did not seem as friendly as some of the other bars in the area, but perhaps this was because it already had more customers than most. A shame it is an afternoon opener but well worth dropping in if it is open.
