"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 with broccoli and mushrooms and I went for the ribeye, both excellently cooked, tender and very enjoyable. We were attracted to the deserts being served at other tables and could not help but to order as they looked delicious. I would like to thank this restaurant team for providing such a nice experience."

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.

Just walked home from the newly extended and refurbished Cross Keys, it's beautiful, food was fabulous and beautifully presented on stylish crocks, service was fantastic. It was a great place before, but it's just gorgeous now.

Can't say enough positive things about this establishment! Excellent staff, outstanding food. First time visiting, will definitely be back. We had Sunday roast, the best I have ever had out. Meat plentiful and lovely vegetables. Great value.

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 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.

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.

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.

"Heading to the near Craufurd Arms for a gig and looking for something to eat beforehand we happened across Zouk Lounge quite by accident and as we all enjoy Lebanese food decided to give it a try after first checking that there was plenty of veggie options (which there was) as 2 of our 3 strong party are vegetarian. Gabriella (from Romania) was our charming waitress who seated us and was very informative when it came to enquiring about the various veggie options on offer. She recommended the ‘Lobia’ dish to me (Lebanese spiced whole green beans cooked with fresh tomato sauce) which I then ordered whilst my brother and our friend also choose veggie options and we then decided to share these amongst us all and also decided to add a couple of side dishes. Very impressed with all the food served to us; all freshly cooked, nicely presented, tasted delicious and served to us in a timely fashion. No complaints. After dinner Gabriella enquired if we’d like to relax in their Shisha lounge located at the rear of the restaurant whilst she prepared a shisha pipe and some aperitifs for us. We accepted her offer and retired to the shisha lounge. Once Gabriella had served our aperitifs she enquired as to whether I would like to take control of the music in the lounge over their Bluetooth connection which I gladly excepted and we enjoyed ourselves so much that we decided to stay a little longer for another round of cognac and G T’s before we headed off to the nearby gig; only just arriving before the show started in the end as we’d spent nearly a full 2 hours in Zouk Lounge. All in all, a really enjoyable dinner; fantastic food, a charming and friendly waitress (Gabriella) and a real surprise and extra treat to learn of the shisha bar at the rear of the restaurant after our meal. We will definitely be back for a return visit the next time we are in the area."
