Great food, lovely atmosphere and amazing staff. What's not to like. Highly recommend for a quick bite and a drink or a special celebration.
This is a fantastic pub. Great atmosphere, good staff and the food is fabulous. Definitely worth a trip and lovely roaring fires. 👍
Excellent service tonight. Waitresses/bar staff (Harriet & Georgia) very welcoming, polite, smiley & very attentive. Food arrived quickly and was absolutely fabulous! �
Fab pub, lovely and local to us. Service is always great and the food delicious. Looking forward to the summer in the beer garden!
Went with a few friends and had a fab time. Service was great and food was well price! A few of us have allergies/vegans so we couldnt order off the menu, but the chef came and spoke to us and gave us a few options of things we could have which was great and very accommodating! Thank you cross keys for a lovely evening :)
We visit the pub alot, friendly staff, lovely garden. And delicious food.
As a regular participant of this very friendly pub, we quite often like to enjoy a meal with the family. The food is delicious, you never have to wait long and the service is always served with a smile. Would recommend always. Recently been decorated, which has transformed the dining area into a bright warmer environment. Well done.
Good, value for money, tasty food , friendly staff, great atmosphere, great beer (and vodka) use regularly close to home.
good food, good service and a fair price, will use again when im in the area next
After the recent decorative restoration I feel the pub and restaurant have gained character.
At each visit the staff are pleasant and courteous.
The new menu is excellent, food prepared and served in good time.
A recent disastrous visit to a chain restaurant for my Mother's 80th birthday only makes me appreciate more the brilliant food, ales and wine available here with a much more personal service by some competent staff.
Food was fab great prices and left feeling content customer service was great aswel :)
Amazing food, big portions, very good value for money too. Couldn't find fault with any aspect of the service if we tried. Will definitely be eating here again.
Absolutely lush roast. Really friendly staff and really reasonable prices! Definitely recommended!
Excellent local pub. Friendly, great Sunday roast. Family run. Good garden for children and undercover area for grownups.
Great food, friendly staff. Pub was busy, great atmosphere. Food only took as long as it takes to cook it!! No complaints, happy to recommend.
Pleasurable dining experience for Sunday lunch.

The Cross Keys is, like a lot of the buildings in Bath, soaked in history. Once a coaching house dating back to the 1700's - it's not 'the' very oldest establishment in the area, but can claim original stone fireplaces and a detailed history - for whome those who are interested, is detailed on a plaque by the front door.
Tis many a year since I was here last and I'm not sure the Cask Marque Ale Trail was extant then, but that was then and this is now. On this visit the ale was to be tried and be found in the most noble condition. The Blindmans Icarus 4.5% abv, (not noted by CM) was so more-ish it needed a couple more pints to slate the palette.
The pub itself, rare (these days) has not been converted into a surround-one-bar-gentrified conversion, but remains a classic 50's style, two bar lounge and public (the Eddie Cochrane) bar. This last, so named after the 50's pop star who, involved in an RTA nearby, was taken to the close by hospital but unfortunately perished. Photo's and discs in his memory adorn the wall here.
It's mostly a locals pub, who are affable enough, but, as in days of yore, travellers and visitors on 'The Trail' are made welcome. Be sure to connect with Jack, who seems, during the day, to do almost everything.
Had a really lovely meal, and kids was very entertained in the garden. Recommended.
Amazing, food yummy and the guy who served us with tattoos on his arm was very nice with a good sense of humour. Will deffo visit again.
Excellent food in a charming little pub, well-kept beer on the pump.
We went to a party In the garden what a beautiful pub! The bbq was fantastic and all the staff amazing! The owner a great guy thankyou for an amazing day
Good ciders and local ales. Friendly staff.
Outside space for kids to run about... it's a shame that came at the expense of the real grass but it's good in most weathers now and there is a covered area with heaters.
Pub quiz at 8pm every Sunday seems to have disappeared for now. Longing to have it back!
Update: tonight was a joy. Packed bar, fire in the corner, friends, laughs and 10.45 last orders.
2022 update. The garden is a joy. On a balmy summers evening with the local cricket team retiring for last orders. The marquee seems to be a permanent feature now so, with the sides off, there's plenty of shade in a heat wave.
Great service and food (highly recommend the lasagna and garlic bread!) and an absolutely beautiful garden to sit in. However the wine selection is a bit limited.
I'd forgotten to make a reservation and it was a lovely day, so we sat outside at the Cross Keys and had a really delicious Sunday roast - I had the veggie option, perfect. Husband and friends had lamb, delicious.
Speedy, polite and friendly service. Great play area for the kids.
Thank you!
Great pub with a spacious outside. Food there is typical pub grub but the portions are decent. Good standard drinks that suit the clientele there.
Busy pub. Plenty of outside seating. Good variety of beers on offer. The place was buzzing.
A great pub, lovely food & friendly & efficient service. Definitely recommend this pub.
Great food and drink and kids love the outdoor playground!
We visited for valentines day. We had a beautiful home made soup, and the most tender and moist steak I have ever eaten. The staff were attentive and created a lovely atmosphere. Dogs and children are welcomed. And there is a beautiful children's play area in the beer garden.
Enjoyable lunch time meal here
Beautiful tastey food 😋
