RedWillow Macclesfield in Cheshire East

Super selection of drinks available..

Friendly staff, and nice buzz from a diverse crowd at the weekends. Nice range of beers.

Great service, fantastic beer, doggy friendly. Try the parmesan truffle fries!

Tap for the Macclesfield Willow brewery. Decor has an almost steampunk feel. Hosts the regular comedy nights by Nodding Dog/Jokepit.

Great choice of beer with perfect decor / ambiance for a night out drinking and chatting with friends.

Top bar. Parking right outside. Less Is More 0.5% IPA is great. Clean bar, friendly staff, great location in Macc. Will return.

This place is quite unique as they only serve their locally brewed ales and lagers. The ‘Guileless’ lager I had was absolutely lovely (pictured) along with a ‘Spit-Roasted pineapple gin’ and tonic for my wife. Both lovely drinks and a real change from the local cooking lagers and commercial spirits. However the fact they don’t accept cash is a real let down. I think they should give the customers the decision on how they would like to pay. Staff behind the bar are very polite and knowledgeable on the drinks they serve.

Great service, nice to see a Ross-on-Wye beverage on tap. Indoor and outside seating

Been open over 10 years now ,was in the very first day it opened 🫶

Unfortunately, they don't accept legal tender, but only plastic payments.

Nice enough place and has a good vibe. However several of us felt rough after only a couple of pints. Plus they don't like taking cash

Stopped for a few drinks. Good range of beers. Reasonable pricing.

Amazing place with fab beers, weather was incredible too, so we sat outside people watching 😊

Nice outdoor spaces for sunny days but some of the benches are on a slope, which makes them really really uncomfortable. The pizza was nice but unfortunately a somewhat small portion for £9.

Great beers, good pizza. Quieter than expected for a Friday evening but good for us. Dog friendly.

An attractive, comfortable bar with a nice atmosphere and a good range of beers. Unfortunately though they don't take the legal currency of the country. Ridiculous, so had one drink and then left to go to a pub that were happy to take our money. Sadly we won't visit again whilst it's card only.

Friendly staff, fairly priced, great atmosphere

Top notch beer and fun retro arcade game tables

You can always rely on top class cask ales from RedWillow - the Weightless is simply outstanding 👍🏻 Great knowledgeable bar staff as well, an absolute pleasure to drink here.

Fantastic atmosphere with the Nodding Dog Comedy team. Great choice of different beers and lagers.

Great place for drinks 🍸 and socialising

Great brewery and great bars in Macclesfield and Buxton

I think you'll struggle to find a place with ruder staff, worse management and less hope of surviving when even on Mad Friday, they are closing 2 hours early. A truly horrific experience with stupidly entitled bar staff that shouldn't be working in a customer facing industry and a 'manager' who is that much of a wet blanket that he can't even deal with being questioned about WHY they are shutting 2 hours early and respond to a question without threatening to call the police. a pathetic way to run a business... this place should shut its doors now and allow a decent operator to occupy the space...

Not bad for a few drinks, bloody awful as a comedy venue.

Great selection of craft beers, (and wine and spirits) cool location with modern decor.

A little disappointed on my first visit to Redwillow. I checked the website, which had "Pizza and a Pint for £9, Monday and Tuesday". So, I arrived Tuesday evening, hungry and thirsty. To be told that "they'd forgotten to order all the ingredients for Pizza". Eventually decided to stay for the beer only, which was very good. But even the sandwich board outside had "Pizza and beer for good cheer" or something similar on it. Surely it can't be the case that they simultaneously ran out of all ingredients. And when food is a key selling point, that you don't inform potential customers.

Great selection of beers. Nice atmosphere. Would happily come again

18/11/23: back again for more craft ale/craft beer goodness! 10/11/23: great selection of craft ale/craft beer and cider. Dog friendly!

This is a very cosy and comfortable place. They serve a wide variety of beers and ciders from the local brewery. Did try the food but have been told it's pretty good. Great spot to catch up with old friends or hide from the cold and rain. I will hopefully be back again soon

Good night of comedy and great atmosphere in the room

Great local bar and beers Would highly recommend to anyone in the Macclesfield area Cool and trendy atmosphere Must visit

Always a popular place with a nice mix of people and age groups. Always lots of real ales to try and something like 50 gins to choose from. Now doing pizzas at around £8 each

Didn't eat but food looked good. Extensive choice of ales and a great gin bar

Very good beers, but please turn the air conditioning down!

Friendly manager and good pizzas, good music choices and the dj that was on was awesome when we went. They also have really comfortable chairs, so comfy.

Highly recommended. Great own-brewed beers, great food, and fantastic atmosphere.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Friendly staff, good music and nice atmosphere. Savages food is delicious and a very reasonable price. Wednesday pizza and pint day is my favourite, great for a date night

The live music was a bit TOO loud and changed up songs too quickly. Food was awesome as usual and service was great

Enjoy Red Willow but they don't take CASH!! Why not it's legal tender

Amazing!! At first I thought I wasn't a massive fan of IPA's and quirky beers but after the lovely barmaid gave me a quick taster I now love a few from here!!!

Visited red willow in Macclesfield the other day. Got to meet dom and Jamie savage x Lovely guys x As for the bar staff Warren Ciara and kez what lovely people they are !!?? Made me feel very welcome x x Even got talking to some of the other customers who spoke highly of Warren and Ciara saying they are very good at there job and make them feel very welcome when they come in for a pint x So guys keep up the good work and I will defo spread the word about Red willow x x

Really enjoyable visit to RedWillow. Lovely bar with a great selection of beers and ciders on tap, cocktails are good too. Also fabulous food from Savages. I was gutted when they left the picturedrome but so glad they have become the sole food provider here. Brilliant.

Posto molto carino, purtroppo unica cosa non piacevole è stata la pulizia dei tavoli: Erano appiccicosi

Amazing taproom. Some of the best beer in the country with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Can't wait to visit again!

Awesome choice of beer and lovely seating area outside.

Civilised to sit outside with a glass of wine after shopping on the way home

An amazing bar in touch with its community! Fantastic staff fantastic bar ! Seating & outside seating! my first time here believe me there is an amazing buzz here and it’s all natural! An amazing spot where this place is try it your self !

Great selection of beers. Delicious pizzas

Food was great, mussels were fantastic. Great selection of beers on tap. Staff were excellent. Five star venue.

Nice pub and beers ! Will be back to try the food

Good place for a drink in the evening

Only complaint is that there isn't a great choice of session beers but that's not to say there isn't something for everyone

Really nice set up and a nice selection of ales. Loos really clean too. But...we came in after 5 on Sunday and requested food, but was told the kitchen closes early on Sundays. Menu on door says closes 5.30 Sunday. Barmaid whispered beneath loud music and seemed generally confused at whatever I asked her. My pint was not filled to the top. Tables weren't very clean either.

Rather noisy as place was surprisingly busy. Only three of their large range of beers was available on hand pump. Nevertheless an enjoyable visit. Recommended.

This pizza here is so good. Great flavours and just the right amount of topping. You can eat each slice without everything falling off. The skin on fries were nice. It's a big portion so easily could be shared. The atmosphere inside is good

Great real ale brewery pub, that can be buzzing a bit too much for my liking, however beer is excellent.

Decent but service was incredibly slow.

Good selection of wine, gin and beer. What's not to love!

Great place to have a coffee aswell as a beer. Lovely atmosphere

Great pub in heart of Macclesfield, excellent local beers

Great choice of their own beers and others on cask and keg. Nice pizzas as well. good staff

Nice place, very mixed clientele. Some Times smells weird, good start to the night

Really nice atmosphere, good selection of beers

Great pint - Headless, Wreckless, or Senseless......choose your weapon!

Great place with some fantastic beers. Although I've never eaten here, the food always looks fantastic.

Hospitably 👌🏼Very quiet on a Sunday evening👍

Some nice pizza and different drink in here

Great little bar in the center nice and trendy for all the local Yahoo's.

Excellent range of cask ales and craft ales in a friendly enviroment, it's in camra good beer guide 2022,well worth a visit

Greatvplace to sit, drink, chill and natter.

Good beer but miserable service.

Nice cosy place for a cocktail or 2.

Always great beer and friendly service. Look forward to visiting nearly every time I'm in Macclesfield.

Wait 10 minutes at the bar. Ignore me over groups. Charge me for 2 bottles of mixer while using 1. Awful.

Dog friendly and great selection of beers!

Great little tap room in Macclesfield

What a difference an outside seating are makes to what was already an ace bar in Macclesfield 🎯 Great selections of ales and daily 241 cocktails. Friendly and welcoming staff who always go that extra mile 🍻❤

Lovely place will be back soon x

First visit yesterday, really liked it,big range of beers on offer not just from RedWillow but plenty of guest beers too.

Best of the best in Macclesfield

Great place to meet, an amazing choice of gins, and the staff are very helpful in helping you choose

Fantastic pub and choice of ale

One of my favourite places to drink lovely beer, my other favourite is in Buxton!

Great tap room with a wide variety of locally brewed ales and lagers. Great food as well! Well worth an afternoon/evening visit!

Fabulous place with great atmosphere, amazing choice of drinks and friendly staff! Called in again to have a look at the west coast festival. Amazing choice of fresh IPA's served by great knowledgeable and friendly staff, well worth a visit if you're in the area!

Brewpub for Red Willow brewery, serving at least 20 lines of cask and keg beers brewed just down the road. Quality fixtures, a few outside tables, and a short pizza menu make it a cut above your average tap room

Great place. Good food and excellent beer. Efficient and friendly staff.

Good variety of beers and gins. Nice atmosphere and excellent staff.

Great place to drink eat and chill Staff were very friendly and good choice of beers 🍻

Great choice of beer. Beer was excellent. Very nice place with a good atmosphere

A really great selection of tasty well-kept beers, many of which brewed by Red Willow just down the road. Good atmosphere at any time of the day, dog friendly too. Recommended!

beer line up was amazing and the food is so good! Highly recommend!

A friendly and well run modern bar with many decent ales on tap

Friendly staff, spacious & comfortable, great selection of beers on cask & keg, ciders, cans to takeout, good pricing.

Nice, but a bit chilly, wishing soma food lasted later than 8pm 💔

Many a good time spent here, with great service and excellent beverage range, cheap snacks too, the rosemary almonds were sensational

That Joshua fella is top bar. Give that boy a raise

The redwillow is now automatically adding tips to your bill....I am happy to pay a tip, but not happy that it is done automatically. Time to find a new pub to drink in

We visited Redwillow before the Macclefield FC game and it is a large, popular, well presented bar which serves all of Redwillow's own fine ales & beers
