The Cross Inn - Menu

The Cross maintains a very strong , traditional pub lunch menu, the pie of the day has been good every time we have visited and was again today.

we always go here after the tendring hundred show, very pleased, several tables reserved but we got there early, there was room and it got busier as time went on

Booked here with my mother and her two friends. The welcome was warm and the girls waiting the tables were very friendly and attentive...Nothing was to much trouble.

A warm welcome in a wonderful country pub Easily located with ample parking All staff very friendly and professional Lots of delicious dishes with generous proportions Highly recommended

Excellent 'pub ' grub with a few specials thrown in at reasonable prices makes this well worth a visit. The tasty food was backed up by a friendly and professional service. There is also a good choice of drinks (especially beer) however it should be noted than you need to take a driver as it 's on a main road well away from housing!

Been here a couple of times now as we only live a few minutes away. Nice old fashioned pub restaurant with a warm welcome when entering. Good selection of beer and wine at good value. Food is good home cooked type food with decent size portions. Nice specials usually on offer. With starters between £3-£5, and mains between £9-£15. It really is great value

My husband and I have been here three times now and thought yesterday after we came home ought to review it as it is consistently good. We both had steak and ale pie which came with broccoli cabbage carrots and new potatoes and it was really delicious and excellent value for money. Husband had a sweet of jam roly/poly but I was too full for a sweet..Coffee and mint each, Look forward to going back again. Like to try their fish/chips but yesterday was haddock which I do not like. So will wait until they have cod on the menu.

Had lunch here today, cannot find fault with anything. Home made steak and kidney pie, fresh vegetables all cooked to perfection. My wife had steak perfectly cooked to her requirements and the accompanying chips, onion rings mushrooms and tomatoes all cooked lovely. The portions were generous and very good value for money. For deserts we both had the home made chocolate orange cheesecakes and because we are pigs added a scoop of ice cream. They tasted fantastic. The service was attentive but not in your face which was excellent. It was our first time here but it won't be our last. 5 stars thank you

Have been here a few times now. Last time had a prawn cocktail. Would have been nice if it had been served with the correct lettuce an iceberg and not the limp leaves they served my prawn cocktail with. Shame little things like this let down an otherwise nice starter. So a crisp iceberg please. Also can you get the very nice young lady with hair down to her waist to tie it back working around food like she does. Surely with health and safety courses now the manager here should know better and tell her about it. I noticed as she leant across the table to put a customers meal down her hair was swinging around, Sorry it is just not hygienic .Also could do with a proper coffee maker like the cof...
