Costello's Bar in Trafford

Really lovely bar, great for a quiet drink and a chat to a few friends

Great beer in this lovely modern bar near Altrincham station. Definitely one to visit when in town, And is definitely worth being in the town!

Great pub friendly staff nice atmosphere

Saturday 3rd August 2024 This real ale pub in Altrincham is an essential visit for real ale drinkers when in this town. This pub has a good range of hand pumped ales most of small breweries. There is a good staff on duty and the interiors foe drinking in superb also a good outdoor drinking area at the front of this pub.

Oh dear, as a fairly regular customer I've just paid my last visit on Tues, 23rd July. A loud, foul-mouthed, drunken young couple sitting at the bar and clearly openly vaping, were a very unpleasant distraction, but one seemingly happily tolerated and indulged by the bar staff. I went to a properly managed pub instead.

19/05/24: had a lovely evening with good friends celebrating a return to Altrincham for the evening. Having lived in Altrincham 1991-2007 I have seen many changes and tonight it was so good to be back enjoying some of the old and some of the new bars and pubs. This afternoon beverage of choice a Dunham Massey own brew: Castle Hill English pale ale 5.5% and Big Tree amber session bitter 3.9% 06/06/23: I've seen some changes in Altrincham since first moving here in 1996, then moving away again in 2007. Costello's was one of the changes in Goose Green, and tonight, having not been in for a while seen change again in the layout, size and direction it's gone.

My favourite bar in Altrincham, great prices and friendly staff. Hadn't been in for a while due to quitting drinking but I was in on 3 occasions in the last 2 weeks meeting friends and Macy and James were really lovely as always, really made me feel welcome.

Best bar in Alty! With a great selection of drinks at reasonable prices, partnered with friendly and attentive staff, this place truly caters to everyone and will make you feel relaxed and refreshed. Whether it's lagers, ciders, real ale, spirits, wine or even coffees, this place has it all. In addition to that, they have regular quiz nights and now have live music every other Saturday too. What's not to love!

Brilliant choice of drinks both beer ale and spirits knowledgeable friendly staff

Lovely beer and friendly staff.

Great place. Great staff and great prices too. What's not to like?!!

Excellant beer, friendly staff, good atmosphere

Great place, friendly staff, lovely atmosphere.

Great selection of craft beers, all not overpriced

No hot food, bar snacks available. Lovely service and atmosphere

One of my favourite bars in altrincham well worth a visit

Just a short walk from the 🚊 terminus serving the full range of Dunham Massey beers. As with all good micro bars it has grown in size - a victim of its own success

Great selection of locally brewed ales.

Group of 18 for lunch. Great service no delays and good humour. Food was excellent too!

Pleasant modern bar. Good beers, all from Dunham Massey brewery.

Great place, only ever visit in late afternoons but nice atmosphere, friendly staff and fellow customers.

Shame it's so dark inside and that although this is a CAMRA award winning bar, they don't offer discounts for CAMRA members. The beer is good, as you'd expect and it's a good place to while away a few hours.

Didn't have food just drinks. Nice place, staff helpful and friendly

Great Bar,with great selection of ales

My current favourite bar in altrincham. Good friendly atmosphere with a good outdoor seating area ideal for meeting up with friends.

Visited after a trip to the cinema, not been before. The outside tables were full, the inside was fairly quiet. Bar staff personable and friendly. Clean throughout. The lighting was subdued - fitting for the time of evening/night (10.50pm). Was able to chat easily. Felt relaxed and comfortable. Would definitely go again.

Lovely since the refurb. Staff are fast and efficient. Big tree always on point

This is a great little bar to meet and have drinks. Me and my mates do every month. It's still great.

Good beer, nice atmosphere to meet friends, especially on a mid week night!

Well presented bar with the usual decent range of beers you would expect from the Costello chain BUT..... for a Wednesday evening it was v quiet with only few customers and the barman and his mate who spent the entire evening swearing openly in front of the few customers who were in there whilst discussing their varied recipes for (I assume by looking at them) those living the single life. Personally I'm not offended by the language but really is that customer service at it's finest? I will stick to the Stockton Heath branch in future.

Excellent selection of beers and the people in there were very friendly such that I ended up chatting with two of them.

Great little bar with good local beers

Great night out good selection of cask ales and good prices

Pretty average , recently done up and extended but not a great choice of tap ale , fine for a quick drink ,

Great local ales and reasonable prices

Open plan bar with covered outdoor seating on Goose Green. Dunham Massey outlet. ( FIRST PINT OF THEIR BEER WAS DEER BEER...thankfully it improved from there.) Pint of Little Bollington, very pleasant. ..back Feb 2023. Had a refurb. Pint of Lymn Gold. Very good says Jorvic. Back to 5 star.

An Altrincham stalwart. Great if you want to settle in for drinks but don't want an old pub or blaring music.

I really like the changes they have made in the refurb. More beer choices too.

Georgia and Oli have been amazing and the variety of drinks are exceptional

Bit small,some strange people in there

Good selection of real ales and drinks

Nice beer, nice atmosphere, would recommend

Nice relaxing place in a nice location with a good choice of Dunham Massey ales

The barmaid Joanna could not have been any more friendly and cooperative to Costellos. A wonderful person with attention to detail and amazing customer service. A credit to your establishment

Good place for real ale, young girl was not customer friendly, seemed occupied by other things !!

Always love this place. Excellent friendly staff. Local Dunham Brewery beers and great prices with Goose Green to look out in. Great chillax venue on a Saturday afternoon

The best pub in Altrincham for real ales. Good range of Dunham Massey brewery beers. Friendly staff. Not food orientated, just good beer, music and conversation. A hidden gem.

Proper real ale sitting outside, what is not to like.

Great bar in the centre of Altrincham with good value beer

Good range of beers, great staff, overall simply put I will be going back, quiz night Mondays 👍

Nice selection of beers in a pleasant environment.

Good selection of local real ale

Good selection of beers. No music or TV (a plus for me). Reasonably priced. Stars lost because of the poor state of the gent's toilet and the whole place smelled of dirty mop.

Great beer, staff, and atmosphere.

Nice place. Staff are friendly. Good choice of beer and wine.

Unassuming exterior gives way to comfortable bar with an excellent array of real ales from the Dunham Massey Brewery sold at good prices. Great atmosphere on a Friday afternoon, and a warm welcome from the staff.

Great beer at good prices. Beer range good and quality excellent. Never visit Altrincham without going to Costello's.

Great bar and atmosphere, be back soon

Excellent choice of ales in this friendly local bar. Nice atmosphere, seats inside and out - with heating. Friendly staff. Good prices. Will Definitely return If in the area

A nice little bar with good staff and some nice interesting locals.

Great day out quality beers and service

Nice atmosphere and good beer selection

Good range of beers and ciders, lovely staff and a nice venue all round.

Comfortable pub serving Dunham brewery beers, always decent. Great location

As always great ale (Reasonable prices ) Lovely staff and ambience.

Best real ale in Alty. Don't miss their excellent dark beers

Recommended to visit here by a local who knows his stuff!! Great selection of beers, very friendly service, and a fantastic location near the station

Absolutely one of the best bars in Altrincham, always fantastic customer service and a great array of pints available. Fantastic seating options inside and out with a great smoking area sin Goose Green, tucked away from the other late-night bars on the other side. Definitely recommend Costello's for a pint whatever the occasion.

Excellent pub with superb beers from Dunham Massey. Highly recommended

Not much character but always friendly and a nice pint.

Good service, good beer. Comfortable.

Good location, lovely beers, but the staff made me feel like I was inconveniencing them by being there - weird

Wine very good and excellent service .

It was nice to sit and relax and unwind, to watch the world pass through Goose Green despite the cold wind. I chose to sit outside as I've noticed since Covid I prefer to sit out than on. Costello's have a covered outside area so I was sheltered from the wind a drizzling rain. The wine was good too. A nice hour was spent chilling and I'm not talking about the weather.😄

Very friendly staff and great beer.

Great pub nice little shelter outside with heaters 👍🍻

Costello's Bar, Goose Green, Altrincham. Part of Dun ham Massey Brewery. Great Beers, But! The Management and Staff are unhelpful, Unaccommodating, and abusive! If you are disabled in any way, or in a wheelchair, due to there strict seating rules, you will be refused service as you are unable to move a chair out of position to place your wheelchair at a table or be accommodated for any type of disability and you will be asked to leave. And don't think it ends there! Expect further abuse in passing if you complain!

No atmosphere. Average bar. Decent service

Great bar with a top selection of beers. The bar staff are very friendly and politely following the local guidelines for everyone's safety.

Well done Pete and Costellos staff. Whilst none us like the restrictions you are doing a great job in making us feel welcome, following the rules and maintaining your usual high beer standards.

They've got the right idea for handling the covid19 crisis. Shame some of the customers don't help !

Lovely evening, excellent ale! They have implemented social distancing very well and as nicely as they can. Altogether a great ale house.

Excellent service and very helpful staff especially in these unprecedented times

Great beer Feels very safe with covid rules adhered to

Post lockdown, very well organised set up

I'm thinking of moving to Altrincham. Costellos is that good. I've had the Landlady. Lots of guys have had the Landlady. I recommend the Landlady. The Landlady goes down great.

Always excellent service and unique beers

I like it. Has a great Atmos whenever I've been in.

Real Ale bar of the highest pedigree.

This place ways has good beer. Love it.

Great atmosphere, good choice of drinks and very friendly.

Fantastic real ales, friendly staff and a great pub quiz on a Monday night!

Great Schnieder Weiss on tap.Good music...not too noisy. A bar where one can have a chat.

Excellent ales and lagers. Can't go wrong.

Really friendly staff, great selection of beers and always a good atmosphere. Good choice of wine and gins as well if the beer isnt for you. Always worth a visit when in Altrincham

The guy long hair so rude was telling us when we ordered drink we had enough left to wait rude we drank up and left

Great beer,service, prices and atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Superb little bar with 7 Dunham Massey cask ales , all kept in excellent condition.

Nice bar in the middle of Altrincham. Next to the best beauty salon in the UK.

Still my favourite place to relax with great beer
