First meal in the cross keys this evening couldn't fault it even the kids plates were empty my nachos were amazing complements to the chef
Good beer good price Been updated since I was last in plenty tv for Sport there is pool table,darts. Not sure if there doing food. No beer garden but small court yard.
Good reviews of the new chef at cross Keys following a period of time with no food so decided to take the family for Sunday dinner. Daughter is vegetarian and was slightly disappointed at being told we couldn't order off the main menu as it was Sunday but the chef came and discussed options which was nice. Food plentiful and cooked very nice. Limited veg but was only due to a busy Sunday. Puddings were very nice and homemade. The best cherry pie ever! Service needs a lot of work on. Mainly the fact of just basic things such as cleaning the table. Giving you a knife and fork as we eventually had to borrow from another table and giving cutlery for Puddings. It seemed the poor chef was doing all the work! All in all when the service is sorted out it will be a great place to eat. I know it's still early days so not complaining just pointing out a few facts.
No4 in my crawl of every pub in pock. Nice vibe, good selection of beer
I am severely disappointed with the manager and landlord of this establishment they do a serious disservice in the excellent staff they hold due to their lack of professionalism and understanding. The owner was extremely disrespectful, myself and 6 friends had spent a few hours in this establishment and were treated horrendously after one of our group accidentally dropped a glass. The owner hesitated to listen to our plea that it was an accident and refused to understand our side of the story and was incredibly rude to us, and stated that we were disrespecting his establishment, even though six of us had put at least Β£100 behind the bar! Incredibly disrespectful. Severely disappointed.
