Buxton Brewery reopened the pub on 1st December 2023.
Named after Macclesfield’s nickname of Treacletown*. In the premises formerly occupied by a saddlery shop, the narrow building has a boarded floor, simple wooden tables and chairs on each side and a bar at the rear. Three hand-pumps serve an interesting constantly rotating range of Buxton beers. The Tap is designed to be a welcoming place to drop in for a drink at any time while in town, so the menus list the wide range, not only of wines and foreign beers, but also of teas and coffees and soft drinks.
*Apparently a barrel of treacle fell from a wagon at the top of Hibel Road. and rolled down the hill, spreading treacle as it went. Payment by card only.
