Roebuck is 'Best of Britain'
A POPULAR Cheshire pub has been dubbed the 'Best of Britain' by a leading national newspaper. The Roebuck in Mobberley was named as the place to eat in a Sunday Times travel feature on Alderley Edge.
The feature appeared last month as part of the newspaper's Great British Weekend series in which writers visit different areas of the country and highlight the best of what is on offer.
Manager Mel Kanaris said:
'It was obviously great for us to be named in the article. Cheshire as a whole is blessed with some excellent eateries so to be chosen by a writer from a newspaper like The Sunday Times is a real honour.'
It caps a fine year for The Roebuck, which was voted Cheshire Dining Pub 2010 by the readers of The Good Pub Guide.
Located just off the B5058 from Knutsford to Alderley Edge the Grade II-listed Roebuck at Mobberley has long been one of Cheshire’s most attractive country inns.

About The Roebuck
The Roebuck pub and restaurant is an attractive Grade II listed building, nestled in the Conservation Area of Mobberley between Knutsford and Alderley Edge and is one of the suburbs most favourable and attractive dining locations. The multi award winning venue is owned by Manchester restaurateur Chris Hume who has recently taken over the newly refurbished restaurant and given it a socialable pub feel with a flair of elegance and top quality cuisine.
The venue boasts a sociable dining and drinking area, a picturesque outdoor three tiered garden and a 60 cover upstairs dining area for a more relaxed restaurant atmosphere. This space will also be used for celebratory occasions, private hire, wine tasting and other culinary events.
Locally sourced ingredients are showcased on the new menu which is an array of traditional and contemporary dishes to satisfy different preferences and palates. It's the perfect hub for all meat-lovers with 24 day old prime steak, locally sourced game and fresh organic farmhouse chicken cooked to perfection on a rotisserie. The restaurant is very keen to support and work with local businesses, featuring guest ales from local villages such as Knutsford, Macclesfield and Congleton on their beverage list.
The extensive wine list has a wide selection of new world and old world wines offering an eclectic range of different tastes, textures and grapes from European vineyards. The Prestige Wine menu lists 12 high-end wines from Burgundy and Bordeaux which have been handpicked and selected to give all guests a contemporary and elegant added value dining experience to compliment the a la carte menu, intentionally priced at retail rather than restaurant prices, the aim is to encourage all to experience the finer end of wine drinking!
