Been a few times since the refurb and always impressed with the Sunday roast. The manager Steve was a highlight on our last visit, making sure my family were comfortable during a busy evening for the pub. Staff are friendly and cheap prices, can’t recommend enough!

Came for a Sunday roast and really enjoyed it! Delicious and everything was cooked beautifully. For the purposes of honest feedback I would say myself and the rest of the table found it on the salty side, but we would still come back to try the roast again :) service was very friendly and the atmosphere really lovely too. All in all a very good roast!

Our reservation for 6pm on 7/2/24 for 5 people went smoothly with no wait to be seated. The staff was friendly, attentive, and efficient. The ambiance exuded a classic pub charm, complemented by a menu selection that met our expectations. Indulging in the quintessential pub fare of burgers and beverages, we were pleased to find a children's menu available, catering to our needs. The food was excellent and the overall dining experience was the best value we had during our time in England. A truly exceptional pub, offering delectable cuisine at friendly prices.

31/5 Four of us attended. We sat outside for a drink first which was lovely. The pub has a great selection of beers including real ales (they had 4 on at the time). We went inside for food which was delicious and reasonably priced. Presentation was excellent too. The pub itself is great, a proper oldy worldy pub with character and the staff were all so happy, friendly, efficient and helpful (especially the lady with the lovely arm tattoo) who served us. Thank you for making our visit so enjoyable

Really impressed with our Sunday lunch - generous portions and the beef was extremely tasty. Minor gripe is that the Yorkshire pudding had been kept warm so that it had dried out entirely, being almost dusty when eaten. Other than that, I’d say was excellent. I’m not into sports bars so didn’t especially enjoy the match being on while trying to eat.

On entry, the Crosskeys is cute in nature. The service was outstanding with "Victoria" all smiling while taking the orders. The staff were all friendly and the varieties of food were nice. It's kids friendly, quiet and clean. My family can't wait for another visit soon.

The food was great, good flavour, quanity and presentation. Service was spot on with the lovely Joe, not overbearing but attentivene required. The function room is smart with a little quirkiness from the art work. Loved it. Would highly recommend.
