Overview

The Cherry Pie Inn is a family-run restaurant, wine bar and riverside patio located in Nannerch, Wales, United Kingdom. Established in 1967, it has been operated by the same family for decades and is currently run by Eleri and Simon Ellis. Eleri oversees day-to-day food preparation, while Simon is chiefly responsible for front of house. The inn presents itself as a warm, welcoming venue where guests are greeted personally and made to feel at home. The menu is traditional British and continental in style, featuring dishes such as prawn cocktail, black pudding with Stilton, roast turkey with stuffing and cranberry sauce, chicken breast wrapped in bacon with a leek sauce, wholetail breaded scampi, and a range of homemade desserts including the signature cherry pie (flan base) with cream, Christmas pudding, sticky toffee pudding, and Eton mess. The inn offers set-price Christmas menus, with two- and three-course options including coffee, and a selection of vegetarian meals. It also operates a wine bar and a riverside patio, positioning itself as a relaxed dining destination in rural Wales. The Cherry Pie Inn is a small, independent hospitality business rather than a chain or franchise. It is privately owned and not listed on any stock exchange. The official website notes temporary closures during 2026, indicating that the business continues to operate on a seasonal or scheduled basis. Its location in Nannerch, a village in Flintshire, Wales, places it within a scenic rural setting that supports its riverside patio offering.
