Overview

Britain's Finest in conversation with The Church Inn

Where is The Church Inn located?

The award-winning Church Inn of Mobberley is a traditional yet stylish 18th-century country pub, perfectly positioned on the edge of the village, directly opposite the historic 12th-century St. Wilfrid’s Church. Nestled in the leafy haven of Mobberley, ideally situated between the charming Cheshire towns of Wilmslow and Knutsford, and just a short country drive from Hale this celebrated inn offers a countryside escape. Despite its serene countryside setting, it’s conveniently located just 8 miles from Manchester Airport and 15 miles from Manchester city centre, making it a true gem in the heart of Cheshire’s most picturesque landscape.

Does the chef at The Church Inn have a signature dish?

Each dish on the menu at The Church Inn is special – there isn’t just one signature plate. That said, the famous soufflé has become a standout favourite, evolving with the seasons – from a rich sticky toffee soufflé in winter to a Yorkshire rhubarb soufflé in spring.

The Church Inn was proud to be part of Pub in the Park, with some of the most popular dishes from the event now featured on the menu including Lamb and Anglesey Feta Croquettes served with truffled peas and mint yoghurt to start.

The Chef’s Fresh Fish of the Day is a consistent favourite, joined by a selection of seasonal specials that change regularly, and classic country tavern favourites that bring comfort all year round.

What type of food do you serve at The Church Inn?

At the award-winning Church Inn, they are passionate about quality and provenance. They champion seasonal ingredients wherever possible, sourcing our food from local artisan bakers, farmers, butchers, and cheesemakers. Their seafood is delivered fresh daily, ensuring the highest standards in every dish. Their ales are carefully selected from within a 15-mile radius, with one rotating pump dedicated to exceptional craft brews from further afield. Wine is equally celebrated here, with a thoughtfully curated list that is both simple and intriguing. Whether you’re enjoying a polite lunch, a generous sharing board, or a hearty country tavern favourite, you’ll find quality and flavour in every bite.

What makes the dining experience unique at The Church Inn ?

The award-winning Church Inn of Mobberley is a truly special destination, combining 18th-century charm and history with exceptional hospitality. With numerous accolades, it stands out for its commitment to seasonal, locally sourced food, an extensive and unique wine list, and ales from nearby breweries.

What truly sets the Church Inn apart are its stunning private dining rooms.
