At the junction of Kingsway and Wilmslow Road, The Gateway was built in the 1930s, as a hotel and public house. The adjacent houses were built a few years earlier, in what had been a rural area, until the early 1900s. Now the A34, Kingsway is a former turnpike or toll road leading south. The bar across this private road was lifted only on payment of a toll. The toll bar was situated near The Gateway.
Went to the pub in rush hour. Had to wait some time to get the table cleaned up. Tried some sides with good beer. The food was good as well as beverages.
This was a fantastic pub to go drinking at, with a stylishly presented counter! The decorations are pretty and have a historic vibe, staff were friendly and seating is comfortable. I had a refreshing pint of Stella Artois followed by a quality Despardos, cleanliness had been maintained too!
Wetherspoon serves a variety of tasty dishes, including pizza, an all-day breakfast, pasta, fish and chips, and even Indian cuisine. They have many branches all across the UK, each with unique and interesting interior designs. The best part is that the prices for their food and drinks are reasonable, and the food is really delicious 😝. Why did we order two pizzas? Well, that's because we made a little ordering mistake 😱😝. By the way, the Indian food was a pleasant surprise 👍😀. more photos at IG/FB: @crazykidsmamashopping
I went for coffee at breakfast time. I don't recall going to this branch of 'Spoons before, fairly sure I haven't. The staff were pleasant. It was fairly early in the morning, so I wasn't expecting much of an atmosphere. Unusually, I wasn't really up for looking at the wall prints that usually tell the history of the pub and the locality. Breakfast was the traditional breakfast. It was ok.
We enjoyed breakfast in the comfortable restaurant which is at the convenient location in Stockport. The breakfast came with soft muffin, bacon and sausage as well as free refill drink. Good deal!
