The Cross Keys Restaurant Diner Reviews
"A real discovery thanks to my Hardern's guide. Not knowing it before its refurb, I liked the look and feel of it. Friendly and helpful staff and great food, which was a little above average pub food. It still appears as if it's kept its "local pub" atmosphere. Always a nice touch."
