Great range of beer and a lovely atmosphere, always a pleasure visiting here
Fire always lit, warm, cosy, good beer, good atmosphere, what's more to like!
Great landlord, great guest ales, friendly atmosphere.
Like sitting in a comfortable front room, something of a canal theme in the decor. Great beers.
It's a great locals pub, The landlord is clearly trying hard! The pub has regular changing cask ales and a good choice at the bar, but if this pub is not supported like so many others all this will be wasted!
Support or lose! Check opening times & go and enjoy a few drinks in a great pub.
Lovely local pub in Whaley Bridge close to the River Goyt. Friendly staff and good choice of drinks - just what we needed after a day on the canal
This has been my favourite pub in the village for several years and it never disappoints. Not only is it an attractive honey-coloured old stone building, but it's one of a dwindling number of genuinely traditional country pubs whose interior is unspoilt by designers who generally have no clue what a real pub should look like. Instead it appears that its decor has grown organically over the years, enhanced by quirky touches, like the print of the Georgian era giant square sheep, painted knick-knacks from canal boats, and ecclectic collection of toys in the window. The inside feels solid and dependable as if it's always been there, and there's a comforting sensation of stepping back in time to days when the world was a less troubled place.
The pub is loosely divided into two sections to the left and right of the front door, and has a snug booth close to the bar. There are also two small areas of outdoor seating to the front and rear of the building.
In winter there's a welcoming fire in the section to the left of the front door where people and dogs gather and socialise.
The landlord, Tony, is possessed of a dry wit which draws you in as much as the pub itself. I'd recommend checking out the venue's Facebook page if you're in need of a smile. Both Tony and his friendly wife Jen create amusing posts about the out of hours adventures the aforementioned toys have inside the pub, and these always give me a lift. One particularly lovely touch the staff have made is the recent change to the pub sign. After the infamous near-disaster in 2019, when the village was nearly swept away, following the partial collapse of the dam on nearby Toddbrook reservoir, emergency responders flew Chinook helicopters night and day to drop ballast bags into the broken section of the dam, plugging the void and saving Whaley Bridge from watery disaster. In a sweet nod of acknowledgement and thanks, the Goyt changed its sign to a painting of a Chinook, providing a permanent tribute to the heroism of the teams who went above and beyond to save the village. This is a great pub, and its popularity with locals and visitors alike is very much deserved.
Can't think of a better place to spend some time than The Goyt Inn. Excellent beers, no music so lots of chance for good conversation that can be heard, and dog-friendly too. Don't miss it if you're in Whaley Bridge.
