Pineapple Inn, Stockport (Pineapple)

Closed 11/6/2019 until further notice; owners Robinsons mothballed the pub at that date. Their in-house magazine 'The Unicorn' Spring 2024 edition stated that major investment in the premises will take place in 2024. This coincides with the opening of the nearby bus interchange across the river, and the numerous residential developments going on.

The Pineapple is a pub that feels like it should really be on a homely street well away from the hustle and bustle of life rather than only yards from the A6 in the centre of Stockport. Inside this friendly and cosy pub the two rooms to the front have been opened out somewhat but are still clearly separate and on the walls are numerous plates many of which the customers have brought back from their foreign travels for the very longstanding licensee. To the rear is a more basic games room resplendent with an array of trophies, from which leads the entrance to the smoking area. Originally a coaching house prior to becoming a pub early in the 20th century the building was the local headquarters of the botanical society. Very handy for Stockport’s Hatting Museum, the Plaza Theatre and Mersey Square. Note that closing hours may vary depending on the level of trade in the evening.
