Railway Inn in Cheshire East

Have been to the Railway a number of times. The homemade steak and kidney pie is always excellent, as is the service. If you have young children they will love the extensive play area and it is easy to observe them from inside if you have the right table.

Excellent bowling green to enjoy while you have a few Sunday afternoon ales. Highly recommend for small events/gatherings. I can not speak as to the food quality as we did not eat. This being said the aromas burgeoning from the windows were most pleasant. I would gladly return to sample the delights within.

Great pub good food and friendly staff

Quiet, friendly and welcoming for a lunchtime, midweek meet-up.

A great little pub with very friendly staff and good food Well worth a visit

Fantastic food super friendly staff.

Thanks for a relaxing afternoon with the pooch and my mum. Great atmosphere especially with planes thrown in. 👌

I come here bringing a young lad who I support as I am his support worker, the lad who I support is autistic and the staff here are really friendly and cater to his needs, they look after him everytime, he has his usual beef burger and (lots) of chips (well done) 😃 I wanted to leave a nice review as it is much appreciated , thankyou

Great little pub with fantastic beer garden for families. Staff were so attentive and we happily spent our afternoon here, the kids didn’t want to leave. We’ll definitely be back 👍

Called in at The Railway after a day out to Tatton Park with grandkids. Staff were lovely & accommodating, finding us a table that allowed us to keep an eye on the children while they played outside, which I have to say is fantastic for kids, really good play area. The let down was the food I’m sorry to say. It’s definitely a ‘no frills’ type of menu, which is fine but please expect your portion to be on the small size. I opted for the ‘special’, which was a lamb kofta in a pitta, what I received however was a lamb burger cut in half stuffed inside of a pitta bread with a pot of mayonnaise seasoned with dried mint that was meant to replicate Tzatziki I presume. As for the desserts I don’t think my husband has ever eaten a worse apple pie! It looked like it had been microwave defrosted with pale uncooked pastry & my tiramisu had also been nuked as it was freezing in the centre with warm cream on top. A lovely country pub in a lovely setting with lovely staff, they just need to sort out their chef & menu.

Great proper pub. Top play area for kids. Old kids can play footy. Need to go again with my darts. Update. Returned the other week. Dartboard could do with an upgrade, it was a stapled bullseye. Lighting ok but the odd shadow due to placement on the left. No raised oche either. Darts is in a separate room which is always handy. Chalkboard for scoring.

Lovely family 90th Birthday Party,everyone enjoyed.

Didn't buy food so can't rate it. Small car park so get there early. Lovely sit out area. Defo worth a visit. Staff friendly.

Lovely Country pub, fab sized beer garden, very dog friendly, Good food, reasonably priced, service very good.

Good beer. Good food. All on the flat for easy access and a good play area. Regular overflights from manchester airport more Entertaining than intrusive.

We popped in for lunch on our way home from a visit to Knutsford (my home town). We were greeted by a lovely friendly landlord. He was attentive and very pleasant. My husband had the bacon, mushroom and melted cheese baguette. I opted for the open Prawn Sandwich and a portion of chips. Wow prawns were amazing and excellent value. Loved the whole lunch. The Malbec was really nice too. We don’t usually come to Mobberley often but perhaps we should. Nice to find a lovely traditional pub with good home cooked food that doesn’t have the expensive price on everything. Please don’t change. We’ll be back very soon

Very very busy Saturday... lovely food for the group..staff did great... Only negative I found was that there was only one vegan choice !!

Got such a warm welcome from the host (didn’t catch his name ) but he and his mum and staff couldn’t have been more friendly and accommodating. Highchair provided for our little one and the food was homely and delicious ( even catered for my coeliac daughter with GF menu) when the older toddler kicked off he couldn’t have been more kind …. Offering choc ice cream and made us feel it was no big deal .Can’t wait to go back without noisy stroppy children next time !

Called in for lunch after finding Tatton Park shut. Well what a little gem this place is. Lovely pub with a cracking beer garden in the summer. Proper traditional pub with a welcoming feel. Nice greeting when we arrived and staff very friendly and chatty. Great menu reasonable prices and the food we had came in good time and was excellent most home cooked. Highly recommend.

Had a great meal in the Railway pub, quite a few of us dining and drinking. The food was great, good quality pub grub! The only issue I found was the menu is not accurate as it showed a Turkey Dinner and they only were doing beef. The menu also does not tell you what things come with (for example it just says beef burger, not beef burger and chips) Not a big issue but I do feel like it's a simple fix and would be a big improvement. Overall though was great, good was good, drinks were good. Good night out!

Really lovely traditional country pub with cosey atmos and open fires. Very nice food and friendly staff too.

Closed early. Very rude woman on the bar. Told us they are closing early. We arrived at 8, but it was meant to be open till 10. Looked dirty, dark, and had a moody atmosphere. Tried to have a drink here three times before. It’s always closed.

Saw a review in the paper so visited. Wouldn’t return as food was poor and very bad value for money. Not enough staff so had to wait to be served and not the cleanest of places

Just a lovely place for families. Staff lovely service excellent, reasonable prices

First visit so just had coffee but will call again to dine. Ample seating outside coveted & uncovered, great for watching aircraft, small play area & Bowling green.

Thought I’d leave a review on here as looked before we went and the reviews were a bit mixed. Been for lunch today here as a party of 9 and can honestly say it was one if the best family meals we’ve had. Service was spot on, anyone with young kids knows it can be a bit chaotic going out for big family meals, staff were so accommodating and friendly. Food was lovely, nice home cooked food and lots of specials to choose from. The play area was fab, they looked liked they had updated it from the pictures I could see online. Nice secure garden so kids can just run around and enjoy themselves. Will definitely be coming again, thanks for a lovely afternoon. Would highly recommend to anyone with kids.

Lovely Pub / Restaurant... proper pub food cooked perfectly and piping hot! The beer garden is a cracking sun trap with plenty for the kids. If you like planes there's plenty overhead too. Poppy the pub dog is lovely (love a pub dog)!

Not been in for about 24 years and popped in it was lovely

Great pub, very child friendly and great food

A friendly, spacious pub with a lovely play area for kids. Great place for plane-spotting, too. Nice burgers and homemade pies.

Lovely pub with a good atmosphere. Food outstanding as always. Well equipped garden for families, so the kids can play and the dads can plane spot as its on the flight path for Manchester Airport.

Very enjoyable afterwards with family and friends. Mainly outside which is well set out for children. Worth a visit.

Wholesome home cooked food and a warm welcome. Gorgeous outside area for the kids. Visited as party of 8, 4 adults, 4 kids. Everyone enjoyed their food. Staff were super welcoming and friendly. quick efficient service and lovely atmosphere.

Great family pud, with a large play area for the kids, and a nice seating area outside. On this visit we didn't have any food.

We knew this pub had a beer garden but wow what a surprise we got . On entering there were outdoor caterers serving food and what a lovely beer garden . Plenty for the children to play on and on a lovely grass area . The food was lovely and was been supplied by a local caterer they were doing an amazing job very friendly and making sure everyone was happy with their food . An outdoor Dj was starting as we left . I wish we lived nearer it would Be a lovely local .

Not a good view.of the planes. Food wasn't amazing either

Absolute hidden gem in Mobberley and great location near station! Came here for gorgeous Sunday dinner and the weather was beautiful so sat outside, the area outside is really big and good for kids, dog friendly so we could take dogs and staff are super friendly and welcoming! One of best Sunday dinners I’ve had in a while and all home cooked and portions really good! Even squeezed in a delicious ice cream! Will definitely be back! :-)

Always a good pint...prices have gone up so now its a treat..Quirky Bowling green. Food ok as well...well run pub.

This is a rather disappointing pub. It could be so much more, but there is no enthusiasm, and no real attempt at improvement and a bit shabby now. A shame really because it could a really be good pub. Beers just OK. Great location though, and handy for the train, which made it 2 star.

Ended up here by accident but so glad we did! Great food, wine, service and the play area it was fabulous! There is even a pig 🐷 Will definitely be back!

Very enjoyable experience with lovely views

From the minute we walked in the staff were VERY RUDE and it just felt like they didn’t want us there! They moaned to each other about us, had a go at our kids and started winding everyone up. WILL NOT BE BACK!

Lovely pub with great food and a good choice of beers. Definitely worth a visit.

We went here for something to eat on a Saturday it was a dry but not to sunny day It is a good place to watch aeroplanes flying overhead from Manchester airport, it is also good for children as it has swings slids etc so it will always be busy on a nice day Dogs are also allowed in but I did notice whilst sat outside there was dog poo not been picked up by some owners and thought this bad with children running around We had food inside my wife had lasagne and I had gammon, we both thought the food was good and homemade As I was driving I was drinking alcohol free larger there was only one choice and worked out more expensive a pint than alcoholic larger a pint Would we go back again ? Yes I think so John

Fantastic pub, brilliant and friendly staff, good for Rail connections, food is at a competitive price too, definitely recommend to anyone

Few options for vegetarians but play area is great... Great place to go when weather is nice...

Stumbled on here on our way home from a night out in Manchester, lovely pub, menus looked great we will definitely be back to sample

A lovely pub for a drink, food however not nice in the slightest. AVOID AT ALL COST!!!

Friendly pub with a good no nonsense menu, very good quality home cooked food. Friendly helpful staff.

Booked for a large number for my sons birthday. Couldn’t fault anything he had the best afternoon The staff and food were brilliant, made to feel so welcome and the outside area was just brilliant. Will definitely be back

Decided to go for lunch on Sunday, last minute. Rang and they managed to fit 4 adults, 3 children and a dog. Very friendly, lovely food and tons of outdoor play equipment for the boys. Thankyou xx

Very good cask ales well stocked bar, very good food and reasonably price.

This is my type of country pub, traditional decor, warm fire, friendly staff, real ale and tasty food. Recommend the Steak and Kidney Pie.

Just went for a drink. Nice roaring fire but unfortunately kids kept running outside leaving the door open and it was pouring down!

Lovely beer garden near the end of the airport runway..Great for plane spotting

Lovely pub. Excellent food and drink. Good atmosphere. Many thanks

Just returned from a lovely family celebration for a Golden Wedding Anniversary. Lovely outside seating area, table all set out with balloons I'd dropped off earlier. Kitchen was opened a little earlier than usual to accommodate our booking which is much appreciated. Good food, drinks and great service. I particularly enjoyed my proper old school prawn cocktail! The children had a great time playing in the extensive and safe beer garden. The landlord was also kind enough to take my father in law the short distance to the train station as he had become very tired after the meal.

Just a lunchtime sandwich but very nice and staff were lovely

Reasonably good. Nice play area, food is alright. Staff friendly, to a point.

I visited The Railway Inn with 14 others for a Sunday lunch a few days ago. We rarely see one another so it was an occasion for us all. I was immediately greeted by frowns and cold shoulders at the bar when ordering drinks. I let it go. We all have bad days. We then sat for our meals. I had the Beef Dinner. The beef was dry and tough and swamped in a tasteless beige gravy that was literally dribbling off the edges of the plate. It was, sadly, the worst Sunday Lunch I've had. Still, I didn't want to spoil the occasion. When the meal was finished we wanted to sit outside in the large garden. We asked and was given rolled-eyes from the waitress who seemed irritated at our wish to go sit in the sun. Ooookay. I then went back to the bar to order another drink and heard three members of staff, including the very rude and flat-out obnoxious lady pulling pints, moaning loudly about having to sweep the floor near the high-chair we had at our table. The high-chair, of course, had a little toddler in it, and she sadly dropped a few crumbs. How dare she!? Well, they weren't happy. This was an appalling experience from beginning to end. I'm no stranger to poor service. It's a common occurrence, but I think this might just be the worst I've encountered in a long, long time. Food was bad. Service was horrendous. We spent around £350 in food and drinks here on this afternoon, and I wish we'd gone somewhere else. All 15 of us will refrain from visiting this location again, and we urge anyone else considering a nice meal out to find somewhere else to go and enjoy. The beer garden here is a sizeable one, but it isn't worth the rest of the awful stuff just to enjoy a table in a field.

At end of long walk came to Railway for carvery. Have to say it is one of the best carvery I have had and great value for money. Will be back.

Food was good, staff friendly and the kids loved the outdoor space

Great food, good selection of drinks and a fantastic beer garden

Lovely staff, quick service, great quality food, good prices.

Lovely little pub this. Nice food, we all ate here as a family. Stayed for a drink in the garden which is lovely and well kept with plenty for the kids to do. Definately recomend and definately order the chilli nachos and lasagna. Keep up the good work.

A nice pub restaurant offering good home cooked food. It has a large outside garden area . Has special meal offers .

Nice food. Good play area for children

Me, the misses and the 2 kids came here at the beginning of May for the afternoon. The sun was out and the kids were running riot in the huge garden they have. For the first time, the kids asked to stay at a pub longer when we said it was time to go. They loved the brand new climbing frame, swings, football net and go kart. There’s even a pig just over the fence that they could look at. We also had food which was lovely, nachos and chips for us. The kids had chicken nuggets and chips and sausage and mash. They wolfed it down. We will be returning. What a perfect family pub to keep the kids entertained while the adults unwind with a few beers!

Lovely family friendly country pub, good food & beers, nice beer garden with childrens play area.

Great outside area. Fantastic for the kids. Pig next to the garden and llamas across the road. Great for planespotting and good parking. Food is good, beer is well kept. Great way to spend Sunday afternoons with the little ones and friends. Strongly recommend a visit to anyone in the area.

Really nice pub, really nice food, really nice staff. 10/10

Went May 1st 2022 , 3 Sunday roast beef lunches,, excellent, Wainwright's beer ,2 San Miguel's ,superb, busy on the day, served quickly, overall a great experience, thoroughly recommend this family run pub Cheers Richard and Marie

Lovely little pub, great for the little ones to play and watch the planes. Food was lovely too. Staff very pleasant. Will be back :)

We visited with my children and parents and had a great meal. The children loved the outside play area. The meal was very nice and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be visiting again.

Came tonight and felt really unwelcome. The locals don't like outsiders!

Good food, great country pub atmosphere. Next to the railway line , "well chuffed" 🚂

Fantastic place with a lot of character and a lovely outside dining and kids play area. Will definitely be coming again. The staff were all extremely kind and friendly.

Out in the countryside, plenty of aircraft, landing, and taking off.Good food, and a good outside area for the children to play. Plenty of seating, with service, overall very good.

Great pub, fantastic ales and very friendly.

AmaZing Pub! Perfect for families with Kids - they have a big playground . The food is great and the staff are very friendly

Enjoyed a lovely lunch at The Railway today with my husband and friends. Thankyou.

To be fair the food was quick in arriving and it was hot. Then it goes downhill, It was bland, thank God for salt and horseradish sauce. the one spoonful of cauliflower cheese was so dried out ( no cheese sauce at all) How the gravy was made I don't know..it was a beige tasteless gloop that arrived already on the meal and seemed to be setting on the plate!!! The Beef was bleeding all over the plate and was as tough as old boots! I'm sorry but it was not a pleasant experience.😢

Lovely country pub with log fires burning to keep you warm on a freezing day. Very friendly! Food just OK. Nothing special!

Food and service extremely good. We all had Sunday roast of beef which was very hot. Sat in front of a roaring fire. Very satisfied.

Beer well kept and local. Friendly place, recommend.

Beautiful , traditional pub ! Very friendly & good food.

An old fashion pub with good food and a Crown green bowling green also only 100 yards from the pub is the station which will take you back to Stockport or wherever.

Visited here for lunch today with my sister. Beautiful location and reasonably priced homemade food. Service was exceptional and staff were very friendly and attentive. Lovely views and easy to park. Would definitely be visiting again.

Lovely place with good prices and good food.

Always used to bypass for some unknown reason on the way to someplace else,,what a pint of Big tree bitter¡wow 5 stars fae mysel

My wife and I have visited several times and every time there’s a warm welcome from the staff. Great food and dog friendly too!

Lovely Sunday lunch.Laura and all the staff always welcoming.Husband always likes his Wainwright pint in the Railway.x

Nice atmosphere and food decent enough.

Bowling team match. Usual lovely welcome and yummy chip buttys

Warm feeling, a dog friendly pub Traditional solid local pub. A hidden gem. The railway pub should be a feature stop on the train

Good local ale, reasonably priced food, large garden with plenty of seating, for the energetic there's a dart board & for the outrageously energetic there's a bowling green.

Good food and a great outdoor area if you're coming with kids.

Lovely little hide away. Service was fantastic, kids loved the outside play area. Food was very tasty! Highly recommended and will be returning!

Good food good beer, good atmosphere very good value, what is not to like?

Lovely friendly pub.. Had a drink but would eat there next time. The food looked lovely. Outside space was great. 💛👍
