The Chiverton Tap in Stockport

Cracking place. Such a welcoming vibe and a great choice of drinks. Love coming here, great for a catch up with pals. Seating upstairs now as well, which is lovely.

Love this bar, it's such a great find. There's always a great atmosphere when you go in, decent soundtrack and quality selection of drinks. Cant recommend the Tap enough.

Been coming to the Chiv for a few years, on and off, to meet my brother for a few good ale's that never disappoint, but today we were confronted with more baby buggies and kids than you might see at a McD's Trust me, Im not an "old fogey" but surly this should be an ale house where you can get away from that? Its going to be a while before those kids buy your ale landlord!

Always loved the Chiv. However, very disappointed tonight to be asked for "last orders" at 10pm because we're the only customers left in the establishment. If you advertise your opening hours you should stick to them.

Well as the title suggests this was an establishment that favoured locals. Went to this bar early evening with long time friends. As we entered, a staff member asked how long we were staying as we surveyed an almost empty bar. Not a good start, but worse was to follow. Can we start a tab was met with leave your card behind the bar for security reasons. Never in a long drinking career have I been asked that question. We were all retired and my wife was on crutches, hardly likely candidates for running back to the station without paying. Ordered 3 pints of Jaipur cask and a white wine. Beer was passable but lost its head very quickly. Just had the one round and paid, then retrieved my bank card as the glitterati of Cheadle Hulme were arriving, more important 30 somethings. Left for Archive next door where the welcome was much better earlier in the day. Will not be back.

A wonderful pub with a great selection of beers. Very Covid aware and safe. The tapas selection containing a third of each beer is an excellent way to sample the cask ales. Bar staff friendly and knowledgeable. Also easily accessible by train making it an essential stop on a railway pub crawl.

When you regularly go somewhere, the gloss can dissapear. Never so here. Always a delight and made particularly so by the always excellent staff.

Very enjoyable visit to a fantastic little pub. Since they've expanded there's plenty of seating, and the choices of ales and beers are excellent. Very friendly staff too. Highly recommended.

As always great. Simple approach to everything and it works. Great beer, great service, it’s all you need.

It’s a while since I visited the Chiv but went with friends last week. They’ve got the COVID compliance just right with an easy booking system for tables and table service inside. They continue to provide a good selection of beers, gins etc Well worth a visit

After suffering during lockdown venues like the Chiverton Tap are coming into their own now. Great selection of beers, chalked up on the blackboard with full details and the staff are very knowledgeable and personable. Screens between areas in some parts where the seating is close. We've always booked post-reopening, but they do walk-ins. If you get a window table, excellent for people-and-train watching. Card payments only (I think).

Really have got post covid set up right. Easy to book and order beers from website. Great selection of beverages. All staff v lovely, chatty, normal @ !oh and excellent loos

Seating wise it’s always packed, so it’s good we can book ahead on the app. App is also updated live with what’s on tap. Good selection of beer, cider and gin, no complaints!

Ok...Naturally some tweaks and changes, but everything planned in detail and the welcome as warm as ever! Well done all!

Just great to have the Chiverton Tap back! Went yesterday to try out Post-Lockdown Chiv and Mary, Bob and the staff have done a brilliant job of reinventing this fabulous pub for these challenging times. It’s lost none of its charm, friendliness or quality but they’ve gone above and beyond to ensure everyone is as safe and protected as they can be - from hand sanitisers throughout, table service, the ordering app to carefully distanced seating and bar screens. Really well done, chaps - we had a fabulous afternoon.

I'm not a beer drinker but their selection of gins is fabulous. Lovely friendly service too, always a nice warm welcome.

Called in for a pre dinner drink, then returned again after dinner. Great atmosphere, fabulous gins on offer and good ales too. Especially like the rhubarb gin. Enjoyed a couple of hours drinking with friends and loved playing the board games

I always enjoyed early doors. First introduced in the late 70s...My default drinking time for 20 odd years. I have tried a few! I dont try anymore (except when out of the area on business), i just come to The Chiv.What a delight...Homely, friendly staff and always someone to chat with.What not to like!

We called in early afternoon for a drink, when it was very quiet, although friendly service from the poor lady suffering with a cold. We needed to eat and although the Tittertons pies with interesting chutneys looked nice, we left to get something more substantial.When we returned, it was really busy with a nice friendly atmosphere. Very doggy friendly, in fact there were nearly as many dogs as humans. Lots of children early evening too.We liked the pictures on the walls of the pub's former life, and the amusing route to the toilets although not everyone is comfortable with the communal sinks. I'd like to see some "girlie" beers such as fruit beers or wheat beers, although the lager was good and they had some interesting spirits - toffee vodka and Kendal mint cake liqueur for example. Enjoyed our visit and will return.

I've not been here for a while so we decided to have a pint after going out for a meal.It's still as good as ever, great variety of beers, wines and gins plus other spirits.The staff are friendly and helpful and there's a wide selection of games to help pass your time. Or you can just chat as there's no intrusive music.

If you’re looking for a model micro-brewery pub, come and have a few drinks in this one.There’s quite a variety of beers - although I’d love to find a craft brewery that produced a good, “cooking bitter” like Tetley or London Pride, as well as all the hoppy, wheaty and fruity stuff that’s becoming commonplace in these spots. I can drink one or two of these crafty beers, but I’d really struggle doing a proper session.But the bar staff were great - happy to provide samples - and friendly about it, whilst the vibe in the place was relaxed but buzzing too. Happy to go back & search for my dream bitter.

Came with hubby and few friends as having a rare night out from kids! Great atmosphere just chilled out people, friendly girl on bar helped with drink choices and samples for the fussy ones! :) nice selection and good prices great addition to the area!! Will be back!

Very knowledgeable staff and great selection and quality of beers on offer. Better atmosphere than most pubs!

This is a great place for sampling real ale, including chocolate stout! It is small and cost and can be difficult to get a seat. Board games available. Dog friendly. A historic building with artifacts from when it was a haberdashery.

I enjoy early doors drinking. A couple of sociable drinks! A few visits some months ago has become a few visits a week. Great staff...Great locals and a very enjoyable place to just come and relax...Chat and enjoy good drink. What not to like!

Took a trip to this little beer house for a change of scene. Lovely young man working on a quiet Monday, friendly and knowledgable about the beers. Well kept ales, pleasant surroundings. Will be back.

I was a little unsure of the place initially although i was not in fairness a regular. Recently, the more i visit the place, the more i enjoy it and appreciate how good it is. A great place to chat in good company with good drinks.

Great choice of beer, great staff and brilliant atmosphere. Really like the Bollington beer and the specials that change each week. My favourite pub in the area.

I have always liked the Chiv as an occasional drop in but no more. Its always been fun. Its now a place that has become one of my favourite places. Great atmosphere. Great choice and great staff. What not not to like!

I was always a bit undecided on the place. Not a regular visitor...And still not...But its growing on me. Better personally when its a tad quieter. Chill...Relax and enjoy both gooc ales and wine. When busy, a squeeze. But heh. I like it!

I came here with one of my best friends Sue Burton, it was my treat for her 65th birthday. We had a beautiful meal as usual. The food was simply delicious, we couldn’t finish it all, so they put what was left in boxes for us to take home. The service was just excellent.

What a marvelous place to enjoy a superb ale! I visited here with work colleagues when we were on business in Cheadle. We liked it that much, we visited again!! We all lived the ales, the atmosphere and the informed chats with the staff. We also bumped into the legendary Bumble (David Lloyd cricketer), who visits from time to time.

Love this place. Great friendly atmosphere. Always good beers on tap. Bob and his team run a no nonsense bar serving real ales, beers & spirits. Cosy and welcoming with tasty pork pies, good for a Sunday afternoon tipple.

Had a hour to kill in the vicinity and found this place on Trip Adviser. Tempted by the Pie and a Pint Friday Special. Both pie and pint were delicious. A fine range of beers to choose from and a very friendly bustling atmosphere. Recommended.

Visited in July 2018. A warm and welcoming place to enjoy a beer or two. It maintains the remnants of the old Chiverton haberdashery. So nice to chat and relax without the usual disturbance of slot machines and loud music. It's mainly for people who want to enjoy good ales and conversation, so the crowd is older than most of the bars in the area, which is fine for me and friends. Lovely hosts and some nice nibbles on offer. Liked the touch of having books and games for everyone to enjoy. Can highly recommend for a really nice evening out.

The Chiverton has a constantly changing selection selection of craft beers on tap. Well kept and with a pleasant atmosphere its a nice place to relax with friends.

Unhelpful, worst beer I have ever had. Staff rude. Could not been more unhelpful. Manager rude, staff even worse. Suggest anyone thinking if visiting don’t bother. Only interested in yuppies and if in the click

I’ve paid a few visits to the Chiv.

Some previous reviews have commented on various things they didnt like.

Like stepping back in time but in a good way, although this is a bar it has all the atmosphere and feel of an old fashioned country pub.

Just outside the railway station. Friendly atmosphere but small. Always plenty of differing beers which you can taste before deciding which to buy. Do have a very minor lunch menu of pies and the like.

Cannot rave more about this place if I tried. Love the atmosphere, decor and more importantly - the gin collection

A great range of real ales, always including a few higher in the gravities. It's a very friendly place, the staff are knowledgeable about the beers and take great care. I've been many times and have never been disappointed. Bob and his team do an amazing job. (Dogs welcome)

I have been a regular visior to the Chiverton andI like it very much. The beers are excellent, the range is very good and in my opinion has improved over time. Excellent Beer at a reasonable price and friendly staff. If you love beer you will love the place

The Chiverton Tap is a gem of a place. The selection of craft beers on draft and keg is excellent. It has friendly, knowledgeable staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Just a hop, skip and a jump from Cheadle Hulme Station it can be tempting to nip in for a cheeky half on the way home from work! It tends to be quiet earlier in the week but very busy on Friday and Saturday nights. There's also a range of wines and spirits available for the non-beer lover. Doggie friends also welcome.

Great selection, knowledgeable staff, local microbreweries along with recognised names in a fantastic welcoming atmosphere.

Slowly become my local since moving to the area - all the staff are outgoing and charming making it a wonderful place to spend a few hours. Always an amazing selection not only of ales but also spirits. Of note is its size, it's small enough to keep it cozy and amiable but not too small that it feels restrictive and close. Would recommend to almost anyone wanting a quiet pint or too.

Not my pub of destination, but what a fine place it is! Friendly and homely. And they sell Nobbys Chilli peanuts! Good glass of Malbec...A shame it's not a 250! Well worth a visit!

This is a great little pub,easy relaxed atmosphere, and like all places selling ales now its essentially for hop lovers- i think some of the ales are Woodfords Extra hop, Cheshire super hop, Gatley treble hop,Timperley turbo hop, Handforth hoppy and so on- Hop along...

I love close by but rarely use the CT. S quick couple with my son at lunch time and really enjoyed . Must use more often. Quirky and great staff. Nice buzz. Well done!

A great little pub virtually next door to Cheadle Hulme train station. A great vibe, great staff and excellent choice of beers, wines, ales and spirits.

It's a quirky little pub nice staff the range is reasonably local however expect to pay an additional £1 a pint vs other local pubs. It gets really steamy and hot with a few customers and you can queue for the loo but worth a visit if you are passing.

This is a lovely pub very friendly and great beer. Near the village center so easy to pop in and have a drink with friends etc. New beers all the time so always something new.

Been to this "real ale pub" several times now,and the experience just gets better. Nice atmosphere just the right size, and always very friendly. Dog and child friendly. Always a good selection of real ales, looking forward to our next visit.

Really good pub with absolutely excellent selection of fine real ale mostly locally sourced from across Cheshire and Manchester. Food selection limited to Tittertons Pork Pies!

Popped in for drinks on Friday evening. Was really busy but we managed to get a table after a few minutes. My husband likes trying different ales and was impressed with the choice, they also let you try first if you're not sure what you want. Had a good choice of gins, I had the chocolate one which was amazing. Will definitely be visiting again.

Perfectly formed pub that I could happily spend hours in. Lots of lovely well kept beer served by knowledgeable staff. Atmosphere is nice and relaxed.

Me encanta este pub. Porque cumple casi todos los requisitos. Buena cerveza, bien informado, amable clientela, no distracciones (música, dardos, máquina de frutas), acogedor para los perros, parte de la comunidad local, el club de libro, juegos de mesa, pero lo más importante de todo - mi favorito Gin lote fabricados en Lancashire y la tobera es perro!

Ah, John H, ¡qué lástima! Es un magnífico local, gran ale, personal amable y puedes leer un libro, tener una buena conversación con un encantador ambiente relajado. . Prueba de nuevo!

In contrast to the totally absurd and offensive review to the hundreds of people, young and old who frequent the Chiv, here is my view.This micro pub is an absolute gem as confirmed by CAMRA in awarding it pub of the year. We have been here many, many, times with family and friends of all ages. The decor is in keeping with the original premises use i.e. a drapery and millinery shop with clever use of the tools of this particular trade. The seating is purposely designed to encourage conversation with other customers creating a fabulous atmosphere where new friends are often made. The drinks offering is superb with plenty of choice of both cask ales and keg beers which are carefully chosen by the owners to both delight and sometimes challenge the taste buds (in a nice way). The is also an extensive range of bottled beers, gins (around 20 different types last time I looked), vodkas (a similar quantity), whiskeys and various other spirits and liquors.Obviously some people have no taste or concept of how a proper pub should be or alternatively have some agenda to move custom or awards to another public house.This place was first "billed" as a community pub and it continues to achieve this aim by bringing local people together to enjoy a chat or a board game or a game of cards or an Italian language lesson over a superb beverage.Finally the staff are excellent. They know their stuff and are happy to recommend drinks based on your personal taste.So in summary John H and his "care home for the elderly review" is utterly ridiculous. I also note that this person has only reviewed two pubs and didn't have a good word to say about either. So maybe he should stick to his beloved Circus Tavern or Grey Horse and spout his poisonous reviews there.

Well I marched up to the top of the hill – to the vaunted Chiverton Tap – and then couldn’t march down fast enough. If you’re under 60, vegetarian, claustrophobic, or female this may not be the place for you. It’s a bit like a miniature care home for the elderly – full of the soon to be departed longing to put their chairs in a circle; too much dribbling and wobbling all round. I was expecting someone to ask for my bus pass. It’s called the “Tap” and I guess that’s the clue – it’s modelled on the Tap Rooms of yesteryear – poky, soulless bare-floored places hidden at the back of normal pubs: where old-timers with personal hygiene problems were exiled to cuss, smoke, tell dodgy jokes, discuss whippets or pigeon fancying, eat meat pies, play board games, and spit of the floor. Well it’s like that, but without the spitting or smoking (or sadly access to a ‘normal’ pub). Another name for the Tap Room of course was the Vault, and this is a clue – it should perhaps be renamed The Chiverton Vault, for there is something decidedly funereal here; too hushed to be genuinely existent; the last lair of the undead. You can however get food. Well if you call a tiny pork pie (at an exorbitant price) food that is; and yes they’re kept in a glass cabinet, just like at Roy’s Rolls in Corry. In fact apart from the beer that’s virtually all you can get by way of sustenance (although the pies are served with a teasing option of mustard or chutney – “yummy” as one TripAdvisor reviewer put it). The bar area, to me, although cosy, lacks atmosphere and looks like it was constructed quickly and not that expensively. In contrast to the equally small but much loved Circus Tavern or Grey Horse in Manchester, this is a former draper’s shop – and it shows, with what stock was seemingly left being used, economically, to decorate the walls (cotton reels in shabby-chic cabinets etc). So it’s all a bit cheap but not that cheerful – the easy butt of jokes about being bobbins or soon to be curtains. Indeed, it’s also too easy to think that, unlike the Circus Tavern or Grey Horse – which have both been around forever – this won’t be. Easy up, easy down. I give it about five years – until the novelty wears off and the (craft) beer caravan moves on. And on the subject of the beer, it appears that some of the products on offer may be in danger of losing their appeal. A guy I talked to suggested that, notwithstanding the unchanging Bollington stuff (which is apparently standard in similar shops-turned-bars locally – e.g. Mounting Stone in Bramhall, Cask in Poynton), the choice isn't as varied as one might expect, with several offerings (e.g. Torrside; Squawk) appearing all too regularly for some people’s liking. So that’s it. In sum, if you want a small, blokey, Tap Room/Vault experience (plus expensive pork pies) then this is for you. If not, then it’s possibly time to return to a more established kind of public house. In fact, the train station is opposite, and so you can use your senior rail pass to get to more time-honoured pubs of Stocky or Manc. Oh and yes dogs are allowed. Grrrr.

It's quaint and nice you can take the dog in also it has lots of different beers we really enjoyed ourselfs

Keep meaning to leave this review - the Chiv Tap is hands down the best place for a post-work pint, a weekend pint, or just any kind of pint. Or rhubarb vodka with cream soda. A marvellous place with lovely staff and nice atmosphere.

Friendly, even to dogs, pub with a fantastic range of ever changing beers, cask and keg. A large selection of wines, gins and other spirits and lovely pies.

Excellent beer, kept very well. Good range of wine and selections of gins. No food so is just like pubs used to be - husband now far too fond of pint on way home from work as he passes on way from station, and there is always some in who he know (that's his excuse anyway. A fantastic local with great atmosphere

Visited Friday 31st March 2017 for the first time. The bar is nice and cosy, with a friendly atmosphere and the staff are great and very helpful.Fantastic selection of beers too!

Visited for beer in the early evening. This is a great place. Only a matter of minutes from the railway station. When I visited it was clearly 'family friendly'. Beer was excellent, place was interesting with lots to see - even in the one room that it is comprised of. Will be back every time I am in Cheadle Hulme.

Great little place for a pie and a pint. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. Very sociable, whether you want to have a game of something with a friend or the kids, read the paper or just meet up for a chat.

An atmospheric pub full of real ale - many you will never have heard of, but the bar staff will give you a tasting glass full to help you chose. This is a popular haunt and its a pity its so small - it could easily fill a bar twice the size. there is no jukebox but you can play board games, the decor is rustically quirky and is well worth a visit. Everyone I've taken there has really enjoyed it and has wanted to go back!

Love this place. It's rammed at night which is great fun meeting new people but pop in the afternoon on the weekend with your paper and your dog and have a few pints. It's like a little heaven.

Small but comfy bar serving draft local real ales at a reasonable price, also bottled beers and wine, not forgetting there pork pies with a choice of various chutneys.A must for real ale fans.

The Chiverton Tap is fantastic, lots of local bears to chose from and things always going on. The staff are alway friendly and happy to advise in anyway they can. It's always full and somewhere we regularly go event if it's just for a cheeky drink. We've taken friends and family and it's somewhere they keep asking to go back to also. I'd have no hesitation in fully recommending The Chiverton to anybody.

"The Tap" is a micro pub built into what used to be a double fronted shop. A great place to sample real ales which typically are produced in the local area. Atmosphere is good, no music or machines, just the sound of people enjoying a pint and a chat. Should be noted it is dog friendly, good excuse to take the dog for a walk if you're local. And of course service is provided by excellent friendly staff, what more could you want!.

We decided to have a few drinks and arrived at 12.00. It soon got very busy quickly and the atmosphere was great.My only little personal gripe I did think all the dogs in such close space really wasn't for me, it hasn't put me off going back, I just personally don't like stepping around other peoples pets.

The Chiv is a legend amongst local ale hostelries!. The ability to have tasters of the different bitters is something i have not come across locally before !. I must admit when i was told by a friend of the owner ,that they where opening there, i doubted the ability to make a success of it! but thank god how wrong was i?A good night to catch up with the lads age group 35 plus !.

What a great little place! Fantastic lively atmosphere, very welcoming bar staff, impressive choice of local, micro-brewery beers and wonderful creativity in linking former usage of the premises with the current decoration!Didn't eat here. In fact didn't see anyone eating. But the place was full of local people.

A great micro pub with a fantastic selection of beers as well as some great guns and cinders. Staff are extremely helpful and there's always a great atmosphere with the place attracting a mixture of the usual real ale suspects, along with couples and younger groups. The team behind it deserve a great deal of credit.

Small, cosy bar near to Cheadle Hulme station with a decent range of craft beers. Had the feeling of a nice apres ski bar without the thumping eurotrash music. Wont be my last visit.

Came here for the first time . Really nice place great atmosphere . Good choice of cask and keg ales . Especially liked the toffee vodka and kendal mint cake liquor !

I decided to go for a drink with my better half and Chiverton Tap was mentioned.This was the first time I had been in and it was a nice place. It is small & cosy but I think that adds to it's charm. Had a couple bottles of wine,staff were friendly and really polite and we really enjoyed our visit.We be visiting again

Don't sell brandy. Husband is a big real ale drinker but he wasn't too impressed with his pint.Full of kids taking up tables so no seats for paying customersBarmaid? Spent her whole time playing on her mobile phone when we were in.Not the best pub in the village

Great for a selection of micro beers and gin. comfortable and cosy surroundings complete with board games during the day for kids

Friendly with good real ale and NO fruit machines,music or TV's.Parking on the road outside and yards from mainline railway station and bus routes.Women seem to be comfortable in this "real ale" pub. Also,dog friendly,which adds to its charm.Lots of old fashioned conversation(like pubs used to be).Only food available is pork pies which are lovely!

After numerous good reviews of this establishment I finally rolled up. A lovely clean place with an array of unusual beers to go for. I tried a couple of pints of which was stunning to my taste buds.101% try here if want a real ale experience.

Visited the Chiverton Tap and had 2 great evenings, the beer was spot on and I enjoyed the Beer Tapas. The pub was friendly and the staff very knowledgeable about what they were selling. I will be back

Lovely place to drop in for a drink especially a beer with local brews allways available. Not particularly cheap but staff and surroundings make up for it. Bar snacks only available i think.

Lovely Place. Fantastic Unusual Beers and Spirits to try. Small and a nice place to have a drink and chat. Nice Staff.

Shuts a bit early if you are planning to have an evening out here, or like me you can't really get out until 9.30 after the kids are in bed. Last orders is at 10.30 then they put pressure on you to leave from about 10.45.On the upside - the beer is truly excellent and the ambience pleasant.

First time we have been to the Chiverton Tap even though it is on our doorstep.We really enjoyed our experience.The staff were warm and friendly and recommended drinks to us based on what we liked.The toffee apple vodka and sparkling cloudy apple juice was delightful.Lovely atmosphere.Pork pie and chutney was very tasty and a good bar snack. Will be back.

I love this place. It's not for everyone but it's nice to have in the village. Welcoming, great beer and relaxed atmosphere.

Really nice little bar. Has a community feel to it .Lots of real ales to choose from. Not cheap but that deters the riff raff. Gluten Free bottled beer available which is great as lets face it this is not a big seller. Although I feel a sign in the window stating this would bring in more passing trade as a coeliac myself you assume they wont sell it. Anyhow great atmosphere here. Dog friendly too! Board games. One of the owners a bit standoffish but pleasant enough.

This is potentially one of my most local pubs but I tend to use it infrequently. Went in last night with friends and enjoyed the place. Good beer and lovely Malbec...Shame they don't do a 250ml large. While this will never be my local, it's a good place with a good atmosphere.

Great selection of beers, wines and spirits from around the country and supports local small brewers. Whilst wide choice on drinks the choice on food is limited because of the building size the Pork Pie is to be recommended Pie & Pint for a fiver - can't be bad.

Friendly atmosphere and a great selection of drinks from independent brewers - even the spirits are non mainstream.

Went to see what it was like having heard many different views, both good and bad.It's a bit of a quirky environment but it was perfectly comfortable with good beer and wine even though there's not a lot of room.Then it was invaded by three women AND small children who are noisy and who's mothers proceeded to push past both my jacket and walking stick and sat at the adjoining table, NO APOLOGY proffered. We and another table all drank up and left.Its a reasonable place with a very good range of drinks BUT NOT a place suitable for small children (at any time) and people who have to shout their requirements to their friends at the bar.

This is the antidote to noisy pubs with TVs and loud music. You can actually have a conversation here without being drowned out by background noise from "musak" and televisions. Just like an old pub used to be, a great selection of real ales, many of them from local micro-breweries and some lager and cider. There are books to read and board games to play if you are so disposed. No food served but there is a wonderful variety of crisps. Great for a night out with friends. Beer was also cheaper than many of ther other local pubs.

No music no crisps but great craft ales and gins. Wine and other spirits also available.Pork pies chutney and good conversation. Cards and board games, a regular reading group and other events. A real pub.

Nice friendly staff and regulars. Great choice of beers/ales and craft spirits. No commercial nonsense. Family friendly.

2 x husband and wife party, a Saturday evening 6.30ish, service OK, beer and wine good,unfortunately all of us found the atmosphere far too noisy which meant we moved on fairly quickly.Party age group,50-60.

As this was a former Taylors on Mellor Rd there are many objects on display from the former occupiers.Certainly attracts the ale officianado's (generally an older more discerning bunch). The Chiverton stocks a generous selection of predominantly locally sourced beer, ales and spirits. Also, there is an interesting wine menu.There are limited bar snacks; quality pies and pickles and a selection of beers can be bought in a flight (3 x half).This is a great venue for meeting early doors after work to chew the fat and blow the froth off a cold one in a cool and relaxed surrounding. In to the evening it does get busy as the bar is quite small contributing to its convivial atmosphere.
