Food at the Cross Keys

At The Cross Keys, great food is at the heart of everything we do. Since joining us as Head Chef in April 2026, James Wright has brought a wealth of experience, creativity and passion to our kitchen, helping to shape a menu that celebrates the very best of British pub dining.

James is passionate about using fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced from trusted local suppliers wherever possible. His philosophy is simple: quality ingredients, cooked well, with classic flavours taking centre stage. From comforting pub favourites to carefully prepared specials, every dish is created with the same attention to detail and commitment to quality.

Our Sunday lunches have quickly earned a fantastic reputation, featuring perfectly cooked meats, homemade Yorkshire puddings, seasonal vegetables and all the traditional trimmings. Whether you're joining us for a leisurely Sunday with family or a special occasion, you'll find a warm welcome and a meal worth coming back for.

At lunchtime, alongside our full main menu, we also offer a regularly changing selection of freshly prepared sandwiches and seasonal salads, providing lighter options without compromising on flavour.

As the seasons change, so do our menus. We regularly introduce new dishes to showcase the finest local produce available throughout the year, giving you something new to enjoy with every visit while keeping the much-loved classics that make a great country pub.

Take a look at our current menus below—we look forward to welcoming you soon.
