About Puss In Boots

Puss In Boots is a casual, cosy pub in Stockport that has earned a loyal following for its reliably excellent carvery and broad appeal. With 2,035 five-star reviews out of 2,978, the venue consistently impresses across food, service, and atmosphere. The carvery is a standout — reviewers praise its beautiful presentation, hot service, and generous range of meats and vegetables with multiple sauce options. Beyond the carvery, the kitchen delivers accomplished off-menu dishes, from steaks to salads, all reasonably priced. Staff are repeatedly cited as the real strength: friendly, accommodating, and genuinely attentive without hovering. The pub handles large parties and special occasions with grace — from birthday gatherings to funeral receptions — and goes the extra mile for guests with mobility needs. The beer and wine selection is solid, and the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere makes it equally comfortable for a solo business traveller or a group celebration. Dogs are welcome, and free parking is plentiful.

Puss In Boots is the neighbourhood spot done right — unhurried, unpretentious, with a wine list that gives it an edge over most of its category.
