Set close to the village of Alderley Edge, the Drum has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We offer fresh, home cooked, traditional pub food. It features a large beer garden plus a function room with large car park. Ideally situated just 5 minutes from the train station and the village centre.

Today, The Drum and Monkey is owned by the famous local brewer, Robinsons, based nearby in Stockport and is managed, on behalf of Robinsons Business Partner Anne. We are a family friendly pub and welcome well-behaved dogs. There is a large patio area at the edge of the secluded beer garden – perfect for al fresco dining on sunny days. Inside, we have two separate dining areas seating 14/16 people in each but away from the main bar area – one of which has a cosy fireplace to warm you on winters evenings. Head Chef and his team will endeavour to give you a lovely dining experience. Larger parties can be easily accommodated by booking online or by phone. Occasionally, we host music events and will throw on a barbecue when the English weather allows! The Drum is close to Alderley Edge’s main shopping area and the train station is nearby, making it easily accessible to all our guests.
