I wanna save a few quid in the first few hours of stock party and haven’t been before, is it common for people to bring their own booze? Much appreciated

Thanks!

I’m from the north east and travelling down to Stockport for a prosthetic to be made so whilst there going to try and make it into a break. Looking for things to do (dog friendly things would be amazing too) as we are bringing our dog, also if people can recommend good eateries too! I’m vegan but who I’m travelling with isn’t. We will be there Sunday until Friday in August.

I’m also in a wheelchair so if anyone can recommend anything wheelchair accessible that would be amazing! Any nice local walks to take our dog? If anyone can recommend some local gems id be thankful☺️

Storming along Didsbury road up away from the motorway in the last few minutes, counted 12 in 5 mins. Anyone know whats happening?

As the title suggests. Looking for up to date recommendations for a decent Chinese takeaway in Stockport (more specifically Great Moor/Davenport). Used to swear by Panda on the A6 (all in 1 box was peak) but it went severely downhill a few years ago. Been using Jasmine House since (Bit pricier but Prawn toast was incredible), but even that has been proper shoddy last few times.
TIA

Looking for any great garden centres in & around Stockport (happy to travel) if anyone could recommend.
I’m developing a bit of a love for gardening & need somewhere to buy plants / greenery / seeds etc! 🌱

Lots of places have now switched away from Calor to other gas suppliers or only do Calor Patio Gas, but I've already got the red cylinder I need to swap. Last time I used Go Outdoors but they've stopped now. Before I pick somewhere at random, has anybody got a recommendation?

I’ve got a mate coming up who doesn’t know Stockport and we have a few hours to kill in the town centre around 10am-1pm.

Unfortunately, everything that came to my mind such as going the Markets, Sticky Fingers, Cafe San Juan and event the Hat Museum are closed on a Sunday.

I could go also go around the Cheadle area, but does anyone know anything to do or anywhere that is open? Any pointers would be great!

edit Thanks everyone! Sticky Fingers online said closed on a Sunday but that must be for the market only!

I've just moved to stockport about a month ago so don't know too many people here (or in Manchester in general). I'm looking to go to a pub (The Alexandra in edgeley but open to recommendations) near me to watch the england vs panama game, and would enjoy some company! Let me know, thanks

We are looking at buying either in Marple or Macc. Is there anywhere to avoid in those areas, is one much better than the other, what are pros and cons?

We love Marple as its rural but not isolated but theres so few properties on the market. No kids so don't need to worry about schools. Just want somewhere leafy with nice walks and a little community. Both work from home, I travel by train to London once a month and partner drives to Leicester once a week.

I don't really know Macc.

Offerton, Bredbury and Hyde keep coming up on our search but I don't know a lot about them or if they're rural enough for us.

Thanks!

Hi!!!

I’ve been told that Stockport takes karaoke very seriously. I’m personally a die hard karaoke enthusiast and would love some recommendations!! What are your favourite pubs for karaoke in and around central Stockport?
