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...
Read moreLovely atmosphere - relaxing music (songs were oldies - some locals singing along a bit 😊) - we had Sunday lunch 1pm - it was very quiet at first then got busier later - good choice of beer - very reasonable prices for drinks and food - roast £9.99. We both had lamb roast. Vegetables extremely good - meat tender (think pre-made as soft and tender) - yorkshire and roast potatoes very good. Gravy unusually good with extra jug of it provided. The chef brought the food to the table and said to let him know if we needed more veg or yorkshires etc. He also then checked all was ok. We were very happy. We are not local but came from Leeds to walk the canal walk. We will call in here next...

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 £100 behind the bar! Incredibly disrespectful. Severely...
