There are few restaurants that can boast a quarter of a century's continuous ownership, but The Cherry House at Werrington is unique in many ways. Under the control of Chef/Patron Andrew Corrick, formerly Head Chef at The Park Lane Hotel in Mayfair, the restaurant offers visitors fine British dining with a respectful nod to classic French in a four hundred year old quintessential English country cottage built using local stone.
Located just three and a half miles from the hubbub of the city centre, thankfully The Cherry House in its village setting feels a million miles away. History has the building used by Oliver Cromwell as he plotted the King's downfall; the name itself derives from the original Cherry House which formed part of Cherry Farm, well known for its 'Werrington Cherries'.

There can be few more charming venues for a Wedding Reception than The Cherry House at Werrington. Tucked away inside our quintessentially English, 400-year-old, picture-perfect thatched cottage with beautiful gardens, it would be hard to find a more intimate and perfect wedding venue. Accommodating up to 40 guests, we offer you a unique ambience that will make your wedding reception simply magical with food to match.
The past 18 months have been tough for everyone, hospitality no exception. It feels as though we have been closed more than we have been open, even open again we have until now been operating on reduced numbers for distancing. Unfortunately while most of our guests have the common decency to notify us of a need to cancel, we have seen a growing number of no-shows without giving notice.

Unfortunately I have the misfortune to write this review on what should have been a fantastic night of celebration. I cannot believe the behaviour of the son and owner on our visit. It was a birthday treat and whilst I appreciate it was December, (we can't help when we are born) we still deserve respect and to be treated well. We didn't end up eating at the restaurant as they were so rude an unaccomodating it was embarrassing. The son violently snatched the menu out of my hands for making a playful comment about asking for a birthday drink and then denied it after asking us to leave! I would however

The Cherry House is a lovely traditional pub/restaurant with wonderful thatched roof. We visited the Cherry House in December and were impressed with the fantastic menu. The tables were all set with festive hats and crackers and the menu was suitably festive too. Starters, main course and deserts were all beautifully presented and very tasty.

Another year, another birthday, and another wonderful meal at The Cherry House!
This cosy, welcoming restaurant has been our favourite for many years, and we’ve celebrated countless birthdays and anniversaries there over that time.
Our first visit since restrictions were lifted, we were greeted warmly by both Andrew and Jordan, and we appreciated the changes that had been made in the restaurant to help diners feel safe and relaxed.
Although our absolute favourite starter of Broccoli and Stilton soup was not on the menu this time, that was no issue, as the kitchen brigade produced the delicious

26 of us went to celebrate the life and passing of my late aunt which we were unable to do in February due to covid. The meal was out of this world, piping hot with plenty on the menu to choose from. As usual the staff were very friendly and helpful towards the party and it was great value for money. Would very much recommend The Cherry House Werrington as a place to dine. Thank you once again.

Service was good.
Drinks, great and lots of choice
Food was subpar... duck and pink peppercorn source (rank combo) and the lamb source was very watery for my date.
Desert was OK but sticky toffee pudding was swimming in a watery source which did nothing for it at all. Hope this is constructive, I want to reiterate the service was good, Just the food was yuk

Went to celebrate an anniversary.
The food was excellent and the service staff friendly and helpful.
All 3 courses were good, as was the coffee afterwards, with petit fours.
All for less than £30 pp has to make this the best value in Peterborough by far.
Don't have to wait for an anniversary - go now. Let's be thankful for places like the Cherry House.
It's a small place, so please make sure you turn up unlike the "no shows" which cost the business money and which means we all have to pay deposits to make sure the business is viable in the long run.
Cozy. Excellent food and service. Good

My goodness what a restaurant!
Went Friday night and everything was amazing: the staff, the extensive wine list (haha), the service was so speedy and the food was perfect. The atmosphere was lovely and one particular waitress was very informative (I was really curious and kept asking what different parts of my meal were).
Thank you very much to all of the staff, we will definitely be back :)
