Good service, food was fine but not special and quite expensive. Menu on the day was different to the menu we'd been asked to choose from in advance.

My husband and I had an early 6pm dinner at the Cross house tonight (Friday) and it was so so lovely. First when we arrived and came in from the quiet dark cold outside we were welcomed with a lovely busy happy atmosphere in the bar. We then come into the restaurant which was very nice not as load as the bar which we really liked so we could talk. And the tables were nicely spaced so you didn’t feel like everyone was listen to your conversation. Our first waitresses who was a lovely girl straight away made me feel very comfortable with the fact I am gluten free. Some restaurants can make you feel like your such an inconvenience but she was lovely and shared how she is gluten free too. It really made the world of difference for me. There was a lot of choice on the menu and it said which options were gluten free available. We started with the bread olive and oil (gluten free bread) and it was delicious! My husband had the pie (not gluten free) and he said it was very nice! Although pastry a little thick in the corners of the pie. I had the calves liver which they did with sautéed potatoes instead of bubble and squeak (due to the gluten). And for pudding there was a big choice and again things that I could have too which is rare in other restaurants. My husband had afforgato and had the Black Forest pavlova which was so delicious!!! We came away feeling very well looked after, the staff were all so lovely and friendly, lovely atmosphere and food! And again the best restaurant I have been to so far as a gluten free. Hence the glowing reviews and mentioning gluten way too many times 😂 10 out of 10 all round! Might be my new favorite place!

The pub has been refurbished to a high standard with an oak framed dining room at the back, giving an idyllic view of Doynton church. Their CRM system is amazing if after having booked there once, they will have your name recorded against your telephone number. The food is copious and well executed. Had a wonderful ham hock terrine with home made piccalilly which was divine. The chips are served skin on, the fish in thin battered and then rolled in flour before cooking. Could have had more seasoning. Fish was prime haddock. Great ale choice and a comprehensive choice of wines. The service is excellent bar one slip no sugar with coffee. Quickly remedied. The coffee is top notch on a par with Italian standards which is very rare in the UK. Congratulations!

Really yummy food. We had a sirloin and a flat iron steak. With focaccia to share as a starter. Some reviews have mentioned small portions sizes but that certainly wasn’t the case with us. They were just right. Service was timely and friendly. The atmosphere and view out the back were great. About the only negative was that one of the steaks was rare rather than medium rare as asked for, but that wasn’t a problem for us.

Glorious pub. Delicious food made with real attention to detail and care but never strays into being pretentious or earnest. Relaxed and excellent service. Lovely interior. Pulls off that trick of making it all seem effortless and natural although anyone who's tried will know the hard work and skill that goes into that! Reccomended.

Popped in for a pot of tea on a Saturday lunchtime part way through a 10 mile walk. Excellent service from the staff. Menu looked really good, interesting dishes, as did the food that passed me. Clearly a popular place to eat. There was plenty of room in the bar area. Music was quiet and unobtrusive. Definitely would return and maybe for food in the future. There is a large car park to the side of the pub with views of the village church.

This place is consistently fantastic. We’d booked through OpenTable on Christmas Eve, unfortunately OpenTable had allowed us to book a time they weren’t actually serving, this was a bit disappointing but the staff handled it really well, we were offered the first table when they opened for dinner, a great table and bit of a discount - honestly hats off to the staff they really turned things around. The service is always great, really friendly and happy smiley staff. Fantastic drinks with good variety, but the food is absolutely INCREDIBLE! I have been here over 10 times and I have never had a bad meal at all. This place deserves the full 5* rating!

Food absolutely lovely, can't fault that, but why the service charge, and not give you the chance to tip by choice ?... This is added on the bill but optional, I know that, and is in the small print along with allergy info. I would have left the same tip anyway. But 10% on the drinks, when we sat in the bar, and when the place is actually a pub. That's 45p on every pint and 64p on a glass of wine, for a total of about five steps from the bar to the table. But what grates me is the first round I ordered at the bar and carried it to the table myself, but was still charged for my own service. This spoilt the night and I wouldn't go there again just out of principle. So I recommend when you want a drink, go to the bar and pay there.

Passing by while travelling to Wales and stumbled across the village of Doynton. With the Cross House at the heart of it with what seems a somewhat ££££ refurb not too long ago with no detail spared, we were happy to find this spot! Camembert to begin which was devine, bearing in mind a few pints deep at this point, wolfed it down without breathing it feels! With the Flat Iron steak and Burger to follow. The Burger was up there with the better pub burgers I've had so can't loose there. The steak was also very tasty and cooked as requested, Medium - Rare. However did get a lil mouth workout chewing the thing, no complaints as was more the cut chosen over how it was cooked. All in all, a fantastic find and would recommend to anyone passing by or near the area.

usually have a lovely meal here. but not on Saturday 15th march. went with some family at lunchtime around 130. didn't order until 2pm. one ordered at the bar and the other 2 on the app. drinks took ages to come around about 15-20mins and then they missed a water. waited until about 245 went up to complain as we had young children with us to be told they're still cooking it, will be another 10 mins or so. not apologetic at all. we did tell them we had young children too. apparently because 2 of us orders through the app there was a 25 minute delay after the person who went to the bar because of connection to the kitchen - if that's the case and they have trouble with the app with the food - don't use it. if there was a wait with food it's fine, but didn't get told there was a wait or how long for when ordered at the bar. food arrived eventually at 255 with no apology to say sorry about the wait. food was okay... kids salad with the pizza was awful. complained as it had soggy cucumber which was gone past it's date and lettuce which was wilted. the cabbage on it was grey - complained to be told oh it's the dressing that does this.. uhh I don't think so! no sorry or anything. bought new salad out without dressing and the soggy cucumber was still there and the grey cabbage! ordered a kids beef burger too and it was missing cheese. also no one came to ask us if everything was okay with the meal either. sorry we won't be in a rush to return. a shame as it's out local!
