About the Pub
Micropub located in the centre of Bramhall village, the Mounting Stone is the sister pub to Cheadle Hulme's successful micropub Chiverton Tap and follows that pub's ethos of "keep it small and keep it simple". The pub operates on two levels: the main bar is on the ground floor and leads to a small beer garden at the rear, the lower level area is long and narrow with one side taken up with the cellar (this has been made into a feature with clear glazing to view the racked barrels). The decor reflects the fact that the site was originally a local blacksmiths; the craftsmen's tools on the timber-boarded walls provide an interesting theme that hints at that history. The Mounting Stone name was derived from a stone, further up the road towards Woodford, that was used by riders to mount their horses. Overall, the pub exudes a cosy and convivial place in which to have a drink. The drinks emphasis is on local suppliers as far as possible. Six cask lines are always available with two beers from Bollington brewery alongside four ever-changing beers from local, regional, and national microbreweries with one reserved for a porter or stout. In addition, there are six keg beers, three of which are reserved for beers from Salford's Outstanding brewery. Bottled beer is also on sale as is a traditional "bag in a box" cider. You can buy three thirds of a pint for the price of a pint and CAMRA discount is available on Monday and Tuesday. As with the Chiverton, there is a speciality gin range. Food is available in the form of tasty locally sourced pies. Voted Pub of the Year in the City Life Awards 2016. History: opened for business 24/6/16 in former blacksmiths shop premises.
