About us

The Church Inn re-opened in June 2013 after being acquired, in a near derelict state, by Tim Bird and Mary McLaughlin. Now fully restored and refurbished we offer great food in an old Country Tavern environment. The pub has a main bar with intimate small dining rooms, there is a ‘boot room’ for a ‘muddy boot’ pint of ale. Upstairs sits the George Mallory room and the Chefs Library both available for private dining and meetings. We have a pretty summer terrace overlooking St. Wilfreds Church and the famous stocks of Mobberley.

Freshly cooked food prepared by our team of chefs with ales from within a 15 mile boundary, but with one pump dedicated to craft ales from further away. Wine is celebrated here too with a simple yet interesting list. We look forward to you visiting Mobberley and spending memorable times with us.

It is only 8 miles from Manchester Airport and only 15 miles from the city of Manchester yet you are in the heart of some of Cheshire’s most beautiful countryside.

Top-class service and a great traditional menu. Food was super-tasty, loads of it and very well prepared. We arrived out of the blue (no reservation, on a layover at the airport) and even though they were super-busy, the staff went out of their way to squeeze us in and serve a delicious meal for the five of us. The local bitter isn’t half bad either 😉 Worth a detour for sure!

Exceptional cooking in a cosy pub. My wife loved the cured sea trout starter, and the filet steak which was cooked perfectly. She raved about the cheddar bon bon which accompanied the dish. I had the lamb and feta croquettes to start - super moist lamb in a crispy crumb. The feta complimented perfectly. I had the steak and kidney pudding for my main. Possibly the best I've ever had. It came with cauliflower cheese - also fabulous. Packed full of flavour, and not for anyone looking for a light lunch! Service was quick and polite. Highly recommend - can't wait to return.

If you like somewhere with beautiful ambiance and an old world feel, with utterly amazing food, then come here. I found it hard to fault this place. The peach melba soufflé is the best dessert I’ve ever had. We will be back. My only complaint is that we don’t live closer!

Whatever you're doing, keep doing it!!! What a marvellous, impromptu lunch date with my husband! Always greeted in a genuinely friendly way. I had the dog with me so was really happy to be seated in the corner in the bar area with her by my side (I'd brought her blanket with me). Someone immediately came over to change the disappearing candle and table water and glasses was provided without even asking - now THOSE were really nice touches😊 Extensive menu but we chose light bites (not THAT light, I didn’t eat for the rest of the day!!!). I had Croque Madame with a poached egg on top, served with a lovely sized portion of chips and a delicious proper salad on the side with the most delicious dressing. Hubby had a steak sandwich which he said was also delicious but the bread was just slightly over toasted (he ate the lot so can't have been that bad!). We did have to wait rather a long time for two small meals BUT it was extremely busy and there were meals coming out all the time AND they came over to apologise for the wait. I just loved people watching from my corner table and the ambiance of the place. I had asked for my poached egg to be hard as I can't stand runny eggs and it was perfect! All in all just such a wonderful, fully attentive and delicious experience and would highly recommend. I'd give 10 stars if I could. Thank you so much to the whole team including the kitchen staff 😌 Photos - my husband pulled a stupid angry face so I promised I'd post it for all to see - that'll teach him 🤨🤣
