External Drinking Area
The Jolly Crofter has recently been invested in which included full external and internal decoration. The pub has excellent transport links, with Stockport railway station a very short walk away and sits on the high street with good bus and taxi links. Edgeley High Street has, as well as competitor pubs, a wide range of takeaways and eateries and smaller local bespoke shops. The pub is situated at the top end of the high street opposite a conveniently located bookmaker, which our customers use daily when watching our racing channels in the pub.
The “Crofter” is small and compact, but don’t let that fool you, as it is busy from opening right through until close, and on match days the customers spill out onto the street. Situated at the head of the High Street, the Jolly Crofter serves as both the first and last call on the circuit for many locals. Upon entering, guests are greeted by a dynamic layout that caters to various interests and preferences. To the right of the entrance lies the bustling bar area, complete with a state-of-the-art dartboard and multiple TVs broadcasting live sports events. Customers can enjoy a refreshing drink while catching up on the latest matches or engaging in friendly competition on the dartboard. Tucked away in the corner is the karaoke area, loved by anyone who fancies a sing-along. The mix of loose and fixed seating ensures there's space for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves. On the left side, there is comfortable seating and an area that can be used for cribbage and dominoes. The area provides the perfect setting for casual games and relaxed conversations among friends.
The Jolly Crofter is a true high street pub that benefits from additional footfall on match days, being so close to the local football stadium. It shows live sports throughout the week and has space for darts, crib and dominoes. With daily access to the recent installation of a karaoke wall, it attracts customers from the many pubs, restaurants and takeaways on the high street circuit and Edgeley is fast becoming the local place to go.
