We have visited here several times for drinks /food since the pub had new ownership . The team /staff are all so welcoming and friendly and there is always a great atmosphere. We love the outdoor seating area too . The food is always so fresh and delicious with a fab menu including Tapas dishes. It’s a must if visiting the area and we recommend to book a table as it has always been busy every time we have visited .

Recommended by a friend as owners are friends of friends. Having been many times previously for drinks, they have a good sized beer garden, we thought we'd try the food. Friendly people, we ordered drinks and food with the landlord at the bar. Great choice of ale, Timothy Taylor's Landlord. Prices reasonable I thought. Fish Tacos was recommended and it was a fantastic dish. The fish goujons were perfectly cooked. The vegetarian dish, I can't see a menu online to remind me what my other half's choice was called, was also excellent. Her food came with homemade chips, always a treat these days. Sat in the sunshine, just a lovely evening.

We have been going to the Church House Inn for a few months now. We reserved a table this evening for 18:30 - on arrival at 17:30 I ordered a Large Sauvignon Blanc, it didn’t taste right so I took it back to the bar & ask for another one. The manager gave me another glass and I sat back down to enjoy my meal. We went to pay the bill and notice that we had been charged for two wines which I had given back one wine !!! When I questioned about the bill he told me I cannot re-sell the wine!! Disgusting attitude - from a manager!! Not that the management will be bothered about customer satisfaction, we will not return.

Tuesday evening at a lovely pub we found by looking on google, after not having much to eat found pie & drinks on & some cracking ales, if only we lived nearby we’d be in often, a lovely landlady who strives to ensure all is good which it was & made the customer at heart of everything she did, we’ll be back before we leave tho.

No body serving behind bar. I was one of a number of customers waiting to be served for over ten minutes before I decided to cut my losses and left to go to another pub for refreshment. Annoyingly, there was a lady taking food orders and the chef who were aware of the the situation at the bar but neither had the forethought to say anything like ‘sorry for the delay, someone will be with you soon!’

Called in with great expectations. I had the Sunday roast (beef). Swimming with gravy all over the Yorkshire pudding and veg. The wife had the small lasagna. Chips were soggy and not much taste in the lasagna. In truth other people were raving over there roast dinner, but sorry, not for me.

Visited recently with friends, their meals, lasagne and small gammon were fine apart from soggy chips. I asked for curry, choices were chicken korma or balti. I ordered korma . The very pleasant and efficient young man waiting on said there maybe only one portion of korma left, I said I'd have the balti if their was no korma, half chips, half rice. My curry, whatever it was, was terrible. It deftinitely wasn't korma, it didn't resemble a balti either. The chicken was cooked to death, grainy and dry. The chips and rice were very soggy. They charged £1.50 extra for half and half , why,? I assume it was for the chips as their was a lot of soggy rice. I told the waiter it wasn't very good, he apologised twice. Next mistake, horrible americano £3 ??????. The cheek of it. The landlady never acknowledged us, even to discuss the curry or apologise herself. I'm so annoyed, £11. 50 FOR A POOR IMITATION OF A CURRY +£1.50 HALF AND HALF AND £3 for a coffee. stick to well known favourites,

It was a lovely sunny day so we sat outside.my husband had the mixed grill our friend had the rump steak and I had the steak and kidney pudding. We also had portion of onion rings and cheesey garlic bread. We all so enjoyed our meals everything was hot and both our friend and husband said the steak was absolutely delicious. The chips were as brill as ever thanks also to the brilliant staff who are always so pleasont and welcoming. We visit as and when we can and hope to return soon. It is well worth a visit for the beer as well as the food. It also has a good flat car park for anyone with walking probs. There are outside tables and covered area too. Lovely country pub.

We went recently with friends and had a good evening. The beer and food choice are both excellent and portions not too huge. My only 2 comments, as I have mentioned before are the lack of space for the servers to serve food, as the chairs stick out too much and the side salad/veg just needs to be a bit bigger. They use big plates and it looks a bit sparse, an extra few slices of carrot wouldnt cost the earth and finish off a generally excellent meal. We managed a dessert, which are generally always on the 'winter' side of things, this time being sticky toffee pudding, a bit dense but very nice.Service is always pleasant and meals are reasonably priced. Will return !

Have been lots of times at different times of the year. Always good home cooked food, lots of choice and specials board added extra. Have been through most of menu now and particularly enjoy the chicken jalfrazi, pie of the day, both chillis and the roast dinner. You don't have to wait ages to be served your food, and great idea having small portions for those with not a huge appetite. Have taken lots of friends and relatives here and they have all enjoyed it.

Four of us had a very nice meal recently. The welcome and service was good, as was the choice of real ales. Both my wife and I had the cajun chicken which was lovely, though I would have preferred to have veg instead of salad. Meals are around a tenner and up.The one minor negative is the amount of room between the chairs, as its a bit tight to get around or for the servers to dish out the food.

Indifferent management is what stops this place from aspiring to be anything else other than average. Have eaten here on a number of occasions hoping things would get better but they do not. The Sunday roast (particularly the beef) is cooked to death which is very disappointing and begs the question why bother coming back?That said I am ever the optimist and hope Management will clue up and realise that catering to the lowest common denominator is not the way to go when it comes to food. Another tip: try being more welcoming. The bar staff are great but management seems to have a 'take it or leave it' approach to business which not really conducive to the hospitality business.

If you want good home-cooked food at a reasonable price this is the place for you. It is a traditional pub where a warm welcomes awaits. Service is friendly and prompt. I had the Steak, Guinness and Stilton pie which was excellent. Masses of steak and just the right amount of Stilton to make it interesting without being overpowering. My dining companion had the roast duck leg which was done perfectly with masses of crispy skin. The only slight downside was the chips which were a little on the soggy side, but the other vegetables were cooked very well. Definitely recommended.

We have been going to this pub for over a year on at least a weekly basis and it never disappoints. The food is consistently good and the service is quick despite it being busy on occasions. Our preference is always lasagne - never tasted better anywhere else. There is an extensive menu but we keep coming back for the lasagne! Staff are always very friendly and obliging. It is certainly a pub to visit if you are in the area.

£15 for a mixed grill that consisted of a frying steak, a gammon chop that that had a funny odour, and a crunchy deep fried sausage. My partner received a microwaved, processed lasagne.Nice pub, lovely setting and friendly staff. But the food lets it down massively.

I had steak, Guinness and stilton pie with chips and fresh veg (real fresh veg not frozen). The chips were very well cooked and the pie was first class. We were all very happy with our meals. My wife said that her steak and kidney pudding was about the best that she had eaten. The price was very good for the standard of food and the ale was pretty good too!This pub is well worth a visit. We fully intend to make another visit in the next month or two.

Just come back from the most wonderful evening at the Church House! My wife booked a table for the family, and when we arrived the tables were set beautifully and they'd even put happy birthday banners up for me. The service was second to none, despite it being a busy Friday evening. And the food! We all ordered different meals; such as deep fried goats cheese drizzled with honey on a bed of salad from the specials board, their amazing steak and ale pie and chicken tikka masala. Every single dish was beautifully cooked and the house red wine was delicious and so reasonably priced. I can't recommend this place highly enough, everything about the evening was perfect. We were just sorry we didn't have room for the puddings! Thanks Sheila, Claire and everyone for a wonderful night. 5 stars!!

We visited The Church House Inn earlier today for a late Sunday lunch. The food was fantastic and the service superb. Going into little local village pubs can sometimes feel a bit intimidating when you're not a local, but the staff couldn't have made us feel more welcome. My husband had the creamy garlic mushrooms and I had Whitebait to start. Really tasty. We then both had Steak and Kidney Pudding which was naughty but completely delicious. My little girl enjoyed a good sized portion of chicken goujons. We all had pudding too. Fab food, cosy atmosphere. Definitely recommend!

We are becoming regulars here after moving to the area from the centre of Macclesfield. The times we come in to eat vary from mid-week to Sunday lunchtimes and the service and food is always fantastic. The owner is lovely and the lady behind the bar (Claire?) is always so lovely with my son Charlie who is autistic. Nothing is too much trouble for her, and she always packs up his leftover curry to take home! I will continue to come here to eat with my family and would recommend the pies - amazing!

this is the church house at the junction of church lane and ridge hill in Sutton near Macclesfield. Not to be confused with the church house in bollington which is also on trip advisor listed as near macclesfield !!! Run by Sheila and her team it is one of the friendliest pubs you will find, an old fashioned pub that hasn't been ruined by restoration. the beers are excellent. the food is a small old fashioned menu, local produce, nothing fancy. eg homemade pies, gammon and egg, a few curries, lasagne. on the specials board will be about 5 extra options eg morrocan lamb, liver and onions, pork steak in cream and mustard sauce. all mains just under a tenner. hand cut chips are yummy. food is at lunch and early evening. phone them and you can book a table, but bear in mind this is a small pub so you won't have a fancy table. Its a gem of a place.
