It seems the restaurant positions itself at a certain standard but fails to deliver on that promise. If they simplified their menu to focus on traditional pub offerings with fewer items but executed them better, it would significantly improve the experience. They label some dishes as "pub classics"—like an aubergine miso, which feels somewhat out of place—and then charge premium prices for items like a £60 steak or a £31 beef Wellington. Overall, the menu feels disjointed, and most dishes come across as lacking any real care or thought. They simply look and taste like uninspired food.
While the portion sizes are large, it's just a lot of mediocre food, which isn't appealing. I ordered brusc...
We decided to give a go to this British restaurant after one of my good friend's recommendation. We booked a table for our anniversary and I wanted to try something new, nice and where we could enjoy our special moment together. We could have not chosen a better place. Right off the bat we liked the aesthetics with thatched roof and that atmosphere of a serene traditional English pub. Inside it looks welcoming with ample dining area, the place was full but at the same time relaxing. We sat down and despite being so busy we got our drinks pretty soon. There is a nice selection of starters and meat dishes. We went for salmon to start with and it was delicious. My wife went for chicken cooked w...
For the first time at this pub, we left disappointed. Normally, the food is excellent, but tonight my husband's burger was undercooked in spots. When our dessert arrived, the ice cream was already partially melted, making it seem like the bowls had been left out too long before being served. I understand that the staff can't control other patrons, but our entire experience was marred by two unruly children running around the garden and screaming at the top of their lungs. It would have been nice if a staff member had asked that group to be more considerate of the other diners. We usually enjoy visiting the Cross Keys for celebrations and special treats, but today was very disappointing.
We move to UK 2 years ago, since then we are trying to eat a good English food. It's the best restaurant so far!! Absolutely amazing, if you want to eat a nice English food. We will back for sure and the next time we will visit it in Sunday to try the Sunday roast!! The only thing that maybe could be improve is that they was a bit insistent to order our food asking us every 2-3 minutes, we need a bit more time because we need to read the whole menu and translate it to my children and wife that doesn't speak English very well yet. But again we will return for sure the food is amazing.

A perfect restaurant that literally ticks every box. A bar area you can eat in. A restaurant area, and a garden area. Service was exceptionally fast and food came out the fastest I've ever seen ! Michelle the server was spot on. The prices are reasonable too, with the portions the correct size to match. Slight small criticism.... clean the toilets more often and fix the broken tiles in the ladies. Understandably this is just decor and doesn't affect the service or experience. I would definitely come back here again, and would thoroughly recommend it.
I phoned ahead to book a table as I couldn't find a booking system online. Friendly welcome from all staff. Interior is lovely. The food was amazing, good quality ingredients were used. The only issue was it was very warm, one lady asked to move tables somewhere cooler, but the whole pub was heated well. It's not something you would expect people to complain about, but when eating a large meal, being hot can be uncomfortable.
Had a fantastic meal here for our Wedding Anniversary. The food tasted amazing, and was cooked exactly how we asked. The service was brilliant, with the servers being highly attentive. The restaurant is also beautiful. Priced as expected, in my opinion. Highly recommend for a lovely evening out!
I had a truly enjoyable meal today at the Cross Keys. The food was excellent, and the service was outstanding. I didn’t catch our waitress's name, but she was wonderful. I highly recommend visiting this place. We will definitely return!

Great food. We all had starters which we forgot to photo as we tucked in too quickly. They were amazing, as were the mains. I would highly recommend and we will be returning.
Only have good things to say! Lots of delicious things to choose from on the menu, both me and my mum really enjoyed our lunch and the service was great too.
