In the heart of Epperstone lies The Kitchen at The Cross Keys – a country dining public house with delicious fresh seasonal menus, fine wines and real ales.
Our log fire sits between the lounge and the restaurant for customers to cosy up to during the winter. Customers can enjoy a glass from our excellent selection of fine wines from across the globe. If beer is more your thing, in addition to several bottled and draught lagers and ciders we offer a choice of delicious real ales, often locally brewed, that we keep on rotation for you to enjoy. On the other side of the bar is our Boot Room, perfect for those with muddy boots and muddy paws to still feel welcome.
For the warmer months The Cross Keys offers extensive outdoor seating. We have several benches out front as well as on our decking around the back. The seating continues into our vast garden that also features a large climbing frame, goalposts and even a sunken trampoline for children and those young at heart to wear themselves out on after a tasty meal from The Kitchen. We even have Pony Parking for your horses to relax and have a snack while you do too.
The food here is great and more then just burgers on menu it's nice to find a place that does something more than most pubs nowadays. service was good even though there was only one person on when we went. We will be going again might be my new favourite place to eat but going to have to try it a few more times before I decide 😁
My wife & I just revisited the Crosskeys p/h as we used to always call there with our kids back in the 80s/90s/2000 when Barry & anne keep it when it was Kimberly brewery's. The girls behind the bar were nice & polite but unfortunately Ì didn't find the beer very exciting to my taste..SORRY
'Lovely quaint village pub and restaurant. Looks great outside and the interior is outstanding. Nice decor and good planned dinner tables, very clean too. I was too busy to order any food from their menu. The bar staff were friendly and very accommodating. However, the manager was not as welcoming and wasn't a smiley person!!! Also , initially on entering the place I felt a lot of stares, whether it's down to the fact that they don't get many new customers or they believed i didn't fit in, either way it's definitely prevented me becoming a return customer. They have certainly lost any future business off me and all my family and friends.
Excellent quality food (the slow roasted pork belly was magnificent and the blueberry and lemon crème brûlée outstanding!), service friendly and efficient, sensible pricing.....I'll go again!
Lunch fit for a queen. Well, us two anyway 🤣 For those who don't know, Head chef Des Sweeney once worked as a chef for the Queen. He has also worked at the House of Lords and on the QE2. Located in the village of Epperstone. You can't miss the pub as there's a taxi outside,which looks like it's retired. For lunch, there's a specials board to select from two courses £18.95. Or an A la carte. We chose Starters Chorizo croquettes (off the specials) Tempura King Prawns £7.25 Mains Chicken Supreme £12.95 Venison Haunch Steak £15.95 Served with a selection of veg. Side order of Parmesan chunky chips Dessert to share. Bread and butter pudding £6.95 The food is all cooked fresh to order. And served the traditional way with the veg on the side. Good home cooked food. Our server Sarah was an absolute. Review helpful please like 👍 follow thanks.
