Cross Keys Inn in Forest of Dean

This is the only pub at the top end of Lydney and a handy watering hole if you are staying at the motel two or three minutes' walk away. Good range of beers which for me as a refugee from Surrey are offered at extremely attractive prices.

I popped in here on my extended lunch break for a pint of nutbrown ale and asked the bloke behind the bar if they served food to which he replied; "no" he then did however offer to make me a cheese sandwich on white floppy bread to which I said yes... Basic two room, no frills boozer... Traditional pub, just as it should be.

the food was so expensive £9 for fish and chips and no drink with the children's meal not a very nice atmosphere either

Un ambiente cálido y agradable, donde podrá degustar la auténtica cerveza de barril. Tienen una mesa de billar, dardos, música y deportes sky tv. Afuera hay un hermoso jardín y planes para tener un área de juegos para los niños en una zona segura. En abril estarán empezando a partir de la comida, un domingo para llevar, luego expandirse en otras áreas.

Metimos en una noche de miércoles con algunos muchachos, tenía algunas pintas y la comida era muy buena. El único problema fue que no tienen tres elementos en el menú, sin embargo, tenían tanta variedad no era un gran problema. Sin duda volveremos.

An older style, double-fronted town pub reminiscent of a converted house with the bar to the right and the "Lounge" to the left. In a time warp. A proper, blokes, no-nonsense drinking pub, basic and unpretentious with the minimalist style and taste in decoration and furnishing. I last visited one of these in a back street in 1971. There should be a documentary produced about these pubs as they are fast disappearing! Food is on offer; sandwiches or chips with ....etc. Definitely not one of your fancy gastro-pubs!! A cheery barman and some good ales served: Golden Hen and Doom Bar. Worth popping in for a moment of nostalgia!
