The Armoury, Shaw Heath

You'll find The Armoury tucked away on Shaw Heath, the kind of pub that's been pulling pints for the locals for longer than anyone can remember. This is classic Robinson's territory—the Stockport brewery's fingerprints are all over it, which means you're getting their cask ales in proper condition and the kind of food that doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. It's the sort of place where you pop in for a midweek pint and end up staying longer than planned, catching up with familiar faces and soaking in the genuine neighbourhood atmosphere that makes Shaw Heath worth the visit.
