Crowborough Cross in Wealden

Great place can’t fault it food very good drinks brilliant service 10/10 very clean definitely 💯 will be back recommend a visit

Lunchtime were totally disinterested in customers. The menu was let down by numerous not available’s To conclude, not exactly sure why we went there for lunch. Breakfast is okay and early staff were attentive, but I would advise eating elsewhere for lunch. For a drink great if the staff care to serve you at lunchtime Thank goodness for the App that’s something staff cannot ignore.l

Was pleasantly surprised at how nice this place was as some Spoons can be a bit scruffy, no offence, very nice beer garden, had large brunch (with drink) for only £11, delicious and served within 10 minutes. Great mix of ages and a few local characters. Young staff who were friendly and courteous. Would recommend to anyone if you're looking for a tasty breakfast and great value for money

I know it’s trendy to smoke fruit shoot favoured chemicals nowadays but I don’t want to sit breathing in all that muck, whilst enjoying a pint. If the doorman smells vape he should give a warning then kick out the entire group if it carries on. I know it’s not the Ivy and I’m not precious but it’s pretty obvious when someone is slyly puffing away on their adult dummies. Apart from breathing in other peoples habit, you can’t go wrong with the cross, for a cheap beer.

I'm visiting from Manchester and what a lovely little lunch we had today, made even lovelier by adorable Tinkerbell the cat who came to eat with us. She has perfect table manners and even curled up for an afternoon snooze after her lunch. The food was great, the service was fantastic - Peony was just the loveliest server and a credit to the Crowborough Cross.

No parking unless your a local and know how to . So do your research before going . Its the homogenised Wetherspoons so no surprises but we didn't have to play the unique sport of HUNT THE FREE TABLE. An overcast Monday afternoon saw us venture in . The first time for about 30 years . Order submitted and not a long wait for our meal . Tasted ok but could have been hotter , my cheese had not melted (see pic ) But the order was correct ,no pickle salad or source as requested. Deserts ok but mine was very small, small scoop and half a biscuit . Table 21 was adjacent to the noisy kitchen ,a clanging and a banging ,hissing and ,well you get the picture. It did give us smile as the children were remonstrating with each other Free entertainment as we could not hear the ambient muzak any way . Will go again if in area. Be aware of the very steep steps upon exiting especially if you can afford a few. The waitress took a good photo of us too . ( in the post now )

Everything you would hope for. So many different areas to choose from to sit. Very pleasant staff right from ordering to checking back on you. The fish and chips were as good as you’d get. Highly recommend.

So dirty. When entering from the main front doors and turning left up the stairs, the fabric chairs upstairs are beyond belief. Not just stained, but soiled. Utterly disgusting. It instantly puts you off your food and makes you question the broader hygiene of the establishment. Looking at those chairs in daylight, you’d honestly think they’d been dumped at the bottom of a canal. So vile.

Ordered an ice cream and drink, seems they can mess that up! supposed to have chocolate sauce, I thought maybe she left it of because i asked if the Wi-Fi worked, only to get a surely response of "depends". Any way, it seems they don't have any. Take it off the menu if you are selling Belgium chocolate ice cream. She then proceeded to make out it was my fault as it says on the app they don't have anyway. Sorry Tim, didn't know I had to check the internet before ordering, which I couldn't as she already knew the internet wasn't working. so, I should have read a notice at the bar. My fault. Also wasn't aware I had to read every sign in the building before I order. It took almost half an hour to arrive even though there didn't seem to be many people there. Someone needs to sort that place out. it could be good.

It's part of the Wetherspoon chain, so we knew what to expect. The food arrived promptly, it was hot, cooked, tasty and cheap. We sat indoors, but there's plenty of outdoor seating as well. Typical Wetherspoon menu and decor.

This was a meeting of retired people who had worked and known each other for over 50 years. The location was chosen as one of our friends is not in the best of health and this pub is central. It;s the best Wetherspoons I have visited, spacious, clean, fresh, good service and good food. Well worth a visit.

A freehouse thatbcan serve anything.. anything... and they have Greedking shine and Doombar..!! Have you any idea how many.grrat breweries there are locally in Sussex and Kent?? Totally disappointed. A pub is first for been not food. Your beet choices needs a review. Drop the mass produced 'daily mail' rubbish a and stock local county ales 🍺 I recommend Kent Brewery Prohibition and Sussex Gilt Trip.. you'll make.more profit ....

I literally popped into the pub this afternoon for a quick half pint with my terrier dog then to go and sit in the garden for half an hour. I was just looking at the beer pumps on the bar when I was told, without even a polite "excuse me"(presumably by somebody who works there) I wasn't allowed in the pub with my dog. This is the first time in my life I have been told I and my dog weren't welcome at the bar in a pub. If it was the dining room I could understand but at the bar and then to go outside ?! Really?! Delusions of grandeur springs to mind ! I hadn't been in that pub for years having heard of trouble a friends son in law had there years ago when the then bouncers accused him completely wrongly of doing something he didn't do when he'd just gone in for a meal with his family. I thought after many years I'd give it the benefit of the doubt. I won't be going back ! Nice to know that in a time of the Hospitality Industry suffering from economic troubles this establishment clearly doesn't need customers !

I was involved I was out with friend in crowborough cross on Friday 14th July 2023 which is weatherspoons and I was called specky c**** by nasty young guy who I don’t know who he was he was with a nasty girl I knew, my head ended up going though the window not one member of spoons staff at crowborough cross gave me tissue for my bleeding head, I ended up going crowborough minor unit on Monday 17th July 2023 and she confirmed I had broken shoulder and I attended my local hospital to see consultation on my shoulder and he advised me I would need metal plate in my shoulder due to injury and the operation would be this week, I have contacted weatherspoons and Sussex police have said the CCTV is blurry and can’t seen the fight also the bouncers at crowborough cross weatherspoons let the fight kick off for 10 minutes before doing anything I have been left shaken depressed can’t work I am currently a extra actor and work across the U.K. I want justice for what happened that night and stop his happening to someone else, Sussex police basically said no withness we would close the case which I think is disgusting, weatherspoons lied saying their is no CCTV!

How hard is it to serve hot food Steak just warm the only thing hot was the jacket potato just be nice for food to be hot for once

Very pleasant atmosphere and smiley helpful staff. Enjoyed delicious Freedom Breakfasts as an early lunch now that they are available right up until 12 noon. All fine and will be back for more.

A large group of us visited this establishment back in January around 6pm in the evening to meet up for my dad's birthday. The place was very busy and we found two tables on the lower floor. The tables were filthy with food all over the place but given the place was busy this was definitely understandable. Our issue began when 9 off us were seated and asked a rather reluctant male in his early 20s to please clean our tables. This was done with huffs puffs and reluctantly. We placed our order and he made us feel like we had inconvenienced him. We ordered an array of things but myself and my father had the chicken curry and exactly the same meal. It was luke warm but we arnt complainers usually and we after the reception we got we didnt really want to make a fuss. A few days later I came down very sick with abdominal pains it was the day that the paramedics were on strike but I was that ill I had to call 101 and they advised I go to hospital. I was too ill to move and I dragged myself to the gp the next day who gave me antibiotics and said I could have diverticulitis. He told me to do a stool sample and it came back that I had contracted food poisoning and it would most likely be from eating chicken . The ONLY chicken I had was at your establishment . I have since received 2 letters from environmental health wanting to know more information. I have never been in this situation before. I wrote a review in the name of sunny side before which is my email which you responded to with sarcasm which was very "professional" of you so I thought I would come back and elaborate. I have these letters. I don't know the name of the young lad who served us despite having visited your establishment many times and never having a problem before. But if someone writes a review it should not be met with sarcasm I feel all comments should be taken on board and customers treated with respect. Myself and my dad won't be having the chicken again. He was not as bad as me which was lucky as he is a very old man. Don't try and put down people who give you bad reviews you really made us ill and we didn't even reply to the letters from the environmental heath but what I am going to do if u email me an address to sent it to is send u copy's of the letter so who you see my name address and the fact that this is in no way malicious .

I ordered a Classic 8oz Sirloin steak from the Steak Club menu, I wasn't impressed with what I was given. A piece of steak, a potato and a lurpack pot. Really didn't look appetising. If that's how it comes then so be it but, I wouldn't call it Classic, and neither did the staff, as twice, she referred to it as 'Simple Steak', not what it says on the menu which is somewhat misleading. The steak itself wasn't great, quite a bit of sinew. At least there was a fair bit of scraps to take home for the fox. It's a shame, I've eaten here 5/6 times before and it's been very good. Breakfast and a few lunches. The staff are good as is the place itself, clean, nice layout. Warm. Whilst it was very poor today, food wise, I will eat here again. Just not the Classic Sirloin.

To start food good and came fairly quickly but took a turn when we started to eat as two staff members were swearing and talking about inappropriate things with table next to us. ( he was obviously their friend and wanted to talk instead of work) wasn’t pleasant to eat and hear what was being said!

the pub is quite large with an open kitchen and was an ideal venue for an early "pit stop" on our way to eastbourne. the breakfast arrived quickly , was superb as was the coffee plus the added bonus of a very reasonable price .

Been here at least 50 times+, sometimes pop up twice in a week as with rushing around we just can't always be bothered or have time to cook ourselves In all that time I have only had 1 meal that was not brilliant You simply...

Sorry to say meal turned up cold spoke to manager offered to replace but time it took to get first meal I Said no the meal was presented well the pub was not packed so no Excuse for the meal being cold

So much so, we went back again for lunch a week later. Our initial visit was for a morning full English. Perfectly cooked, hot and delicious and the black pudding side extra was simply the best. All the staff we came into contact with were...

Always a good affordable experience it not the Ritz but they do what they do and they do it well. ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Lovely atmosphere great food and fast friendly service come here regularly and always happy with the food, but very busy Friday and Saturday nights if you don’t like crowded places then avoid these days but other than that one of the best so far

Avoid like the plague. Cheap food and beer, served with zero care by understandably resentful staff.

The service was beyond description. I ordered a pint on the Wetherspoons app, and it arrived in 47 seconds. What more can you ask for? I am speechless.

Served by Luke, had a fab evening and he was great!! Can’t wait to come again and hopefully see Luke again!!

Had a great evening served by Luke, great barman will definitely return, made the evening unforgettable!

Had a server named Luke was kind and nice to us on our night out as we had drinks with a couple of mates from the pub will definitely visit again great atmosphere rate

we stopped off for breakfast on our way to the south coast for breakfast . we were welcomed by one of the lady staff who offered us a choice of tables . there was a friendly atmosphere and our breakfasts arrived fairly quickly , all...

Very good fish and chips. Clean tidy and very upmarket weatherspoons well is compared to ours. Staff very polite. Lovely outside area

Always happy with the food, service and price in this pub. Highly recommend. Southern fried chicken wrap is always a winner!

Recent visit we were politely greeted. had all the Covid rules explained to us and had two great meals and a couple of pints each for around £20. Top pub. Great prices!

Stopped in for lunch yesterday, The "Host: guarding the door immediately TOLD us in a very robotic voice to: put our masks on! " This was a omen of bad things to come. Although the place was pretty empty , we were seated right outside...

Just dreadful - don’t think about going here. All bad, but particularly the food if that is what they call it. There are some lovely pubs around Crowborough and this is not one of them! Hopefully Weatherspoon’s will not survive the economic crisis.

Socially distanced breakfast in garden. Food was appalling, cold and had obviously been 'kept warm' for a long time after cooking. We visited at 09.50 - they open at 08.00. Ordering app did not work (no internet om premises) so had to resort to non socially distanced printed menu and waitress who was astonishingly surly - must have been having a bad day and taking it out on customers.

Sorry to say that a simple thing like a breakfast can not be cooked to a constant standard eggs hard bacon over done how hard is it to do

We are always so happy with our food and drinks at weatherspoons. Never have a bad meal , love the atmosphere . Just wish they'd open one in uckfield.

I 've visited this establishment many times and have never ever been let down in any way! Nice atmosphere,good selection of beers,staff always helpful.

Plenty of choice - the special day menus are also very good. Easy to order, food is well cooked and served hot. As with all Wetherspoon restaurants I've been to, this is very good value for money. Car parking is in Morrisons car park and a short walk to the restaurant.

Great place. Great staff. My posh friends are astounded that you can get three big brekkies with drinks for £11 TOTAL With the app you don't even need to leave your seat - table service for £2.50 a pint!! Looking forward to the next visit.

I went with my girlfriend on Boxing Day as we were staying local . The pub was busy but some customers where sat where loud and fowl mouthed ! The menu was good I have a curry and my girlfriend had a mixed grill . Good value but left early as we had enough of the bad language several staff must heard this perhaps hereit is may the norm?

Dark corners, stale beer smells, sticky tables and unimpressive food - how can you get a pub food staple like apple crumble and custard wrong? Cheap but not at all cheerful...

We have visited Wetherspoons' pubs around the country and there are good ones and not-so-good ones. In Crowborough we are lucky to have one of the better ones. There is a very good choice of both food and drinks at very good prices. It is not fine dining but it is good food, served quickly and excellent value for money. My only criticism of this pub is that when the staff clear the tables, as guests leave, they don't wipe them clean - so new customers are invariably faced with a table covered in wet circles from the previous occupants' drinks glasses. It's a shame as it would only take a moment and would make the place much more inviting.

It takes absolutely ages to get served. Very bad service from the bar staff. Here are some more characters although I don't feel any more are necessary.

As a Wetherspoons pub you know what to expect but the Cross is better than a lot of similar venues. The food menu is extensive enough for all tastes, although on occasion the food could be hotter and gives the impression of having sat waiting for someone to deliver it. Quality is good when judged against the price which includes a drink with the meal. Good selection of real ales at prices that undercut the opposition by £1+ so a good place for a reasonable pint. Parking is very limited being on a busy crossroads but within a short walk, places can be found. Nice staff although occasionally the wait to be served can be a little too long. Overall you get more than you pay for.

Lovely building, food is typical Wetherspoon. You get what you pay for but saying that it is good value and I’ve paid more for lesser quality meals. Only criticism is the food isn’t always hot

On entery to the establishment it looked very uninviting, memeber of staff standing at the bar. No greeting just a patronising look as if more people to serve. Floor covered in food that was dropped by previous guests. Tables majority of them unclared, while staff walking around aimlessly. A member of staff with shoulder length dark hair in her 40's had chip on her shoulder was very rude when I asked if a table could be cleared so we could have a meal. She said you will have to wait as we are busy and walked off. Due to that uninviting attitude and experience we decided to go to another restaurant. I have been a restaurant manager in the past for number of years and it seems to me that this restaurant has major problem when it comes to staff especially management and how they conduct themselves. Would never came back or reccomend this restaurant until this issue has been resolved.

Popped in for Breakfast around 10.45am so plenty of time before breakfast stops being served. Ordered at the bar, it's about £5 for breakfast so I don't expect fabulous cuisine but Wetherspoons in Tonbridge does a fantastic job of making a good breakfast so I thought this would be the same. It wasn't! The breakfast that came out first didn't look great so I palmed that off on my husband. The 2nd breakfast that came had completely solid eggs so my husband asked for them to be changed, I watched my breakfast sit under the lights whilst they cooked a 2nd batch of equally hard eggs. Meanwhile everything else had gone really cold. Our toddler is going through a chicken nugget phase so we had a childrens meal for him, when it came out it looked like the corn on the cob had already been gnawed at. When my husband asked a member of staff if he thought that's how it should be presented he said he didn't know as he didn't know how it came out. We said it came out like that, he hasn't touched it & we weren't going to let him. He seemed totally bemused about how to deal with complaints so we just left it at that. Based on this experience I wouldn't return.

I don't expect much from most weatherspoons cause £5 for breakfast is cheap but this is by far the worst breakfast I have had in any of them. When I spoke to the manager he seemed very uninterested and nothing was done. Will not be returning

On passing we decided to call in for our lunch with my 2 disabled parents and my daughter and partner, we needed a spare chair so simply got a spare one off another table that was not being occupied,The manager came over and was physically and verbally aggressive,and grabbed the chair out of my mums hand! totally shocked we left. We was unable to sit at a more suitable table due to the dirty plates been left and not clean. Totally shocking aggressive experience for my 86 year old father and 78 year and witnessed by my daughter of 9. Very poor levels of management skills.

Brunch when will they be able to cook a simple breakfast it’s not hard because is it the staff need more training

The Crowborough Cross is quite small for a Wetherspoon pub. Called in after finishing a walk on Ashdown Forest. They serve 5 real ales, we tried the Arkell's 3B, which was very well kept. All in all a fairly average spoons.

Food ok for a Wetherspoons but virtually every empty table was covered in meal, crockery and food remains and the tables typically Wetherspoons sticky. Very disappointing.

but acceptable. I ordered Mushroom risotto with pulled chicken. In my risotto were the pan bottom burnt offerings unfortunately. The chicken was chunks and not pulled sadly. Pulled chicken makes for a delicate risotto, chunks do not. Sticky table tops are not a good look or feel either. We had a lunch time visit and although the 2 servers to our table were pleasant the female bartender could do with a 'smile' to paying custom for this mediocre but ok franchise.

Just got a bowl of chips, easy enough. Turned up slightly cold but overall was good, just could be a bit hotter. Me girlfriend enjoyed her food and the service was great.

Have been using the Wetherspoons Crowborough Cross since it opened in January 2015 however we have recently been quite disappointed with the often tasteless steaks and poorly cooked food in fact it’s such a shame as we were using steak night as a regular evening out All the Bar and Waiting staff are very good and most helpful and we often pop in just for drinks. Would love to enjoy those steaks again. Please chefs see what you can do as we really did enjoy them.

Ziet er minder gezellig uit dan een country pub maar het eten was beter dan verwacht. Wel erg goedkoop dus ook geschikt voor kleine budgetten.

We stopped for a drink and to ask some of the locals what was the best Indian restaurant in Crowborough. We were given some choices while sampling the various gins of England. I also had the house Chardonnay which was quite good. Pubs are pushing their beers and mixed drinks so none of them have a good wine list. Food being brought out looked like quality pub grub.

I went to Crowborough Cross for lunch on 16/7/2019. The establishment is part of jdwetherspoon. Its located at the top of the town near the lights, and on A26,the

Sorry to say food not that good jacket potato looked nice pizza not to good why does a company like weather spoons very from town to town even basic food is not right I now that they say you get what you pay for it’s a pity as in a great spot

Like most of this chain the food prices are reasonable and the portions good. However, the lamb shank was not the best by any means that we have eaten in other branches of this chain. Having said this the larger shandy that my wife had was in her own words the best she had ever drunk. It is strange that while my wife was given a pint of shandy included with her meal yet my soft drink included with my meal only came in a small glass.

A huge improvement on its predecessor at this central location. The drinks are very competitively priced (unto half the price of pubs in nearby Tunbridge Wells) and the food is typical pub grub at very reasonable prices. It often does special deals, but this is a pub and not a restaurant so be sensible and manage your expectations. Teas and coffees are very good value and you get free top ups. It can get quite lively from 8pm onwards. Staffing levels are sometimes a bit off so you can be left waiting to be served. Bit of a personal bug bear is the behaviour of some kids brought in by their mums after school. Parking is very limited so be prepared for a walk!

A haphazard layout ,a mish mash of styles with plenty of 'private' areas.Good ,lively atmosphere.Wide range of real ales at Wetherspoon prices.Nice friendly staff

Big spacy pub.lots of nooks and crannies parking not brilliant but prices are,with a good variety.food ok if you're starving but for the price you cant complian.all wetherspoons I've visited are excellent No wonder other greedy pubs are closing everywhere

The food in all WS is the same good value for money and hearty fair. It always arrives quickly and always worth getting a drink with what ever you order. Breakfast is good and the refill coffee is worth taking advantage of, especially if you need to catch up with friends and you have allot to say. Always the same and never a disappointment.

Went for my sons birthday. 3 of them had fish & chips and they said best fish and chips they'd had for years. Myself and my daughter had a pizza which were both really nice. So a happy family meal our and good value

Took our two Grandaughters early Saturday evening . Wasn’t busy . Table dirty . Ordered food , children hungry . Why is it they always bring adult food first . Pizza for my 10 yr old , truly awaful , thin , burnt at the edges . Couldn’t taste the base , just cheese . Given ketchup , bottle dirty . Part of the children’s meal was Apple juice and it used to be in a carton . Now in plastic glass and warm . Our food was average . My husbands ham and eggs not good . Eggs over cooked . Although cheap the whole experience was not good

The food and drink here is quick, easy and affordable. Nothing here is ever dressed up to be something it’s not- you see what you get.

Took grandkids Saturday but we're very disappointed food just warm, they didn't serve the kids first food was dry and tasteless. Horrible, ripp-off.

I had a lovely steak and kidney pudding today 10th Feb 2019 but seeing as I went in two after after opening time on Sunday the carpet everywhere was in a right state with particles and dirt very much everywhere and also on the steps up to the loos. Mens loos were not particulalry fragrant with no wall chart for maintenance, dirty stalls, and low on supplies. A shame as I have been here before and standards were higher.

Wetherspoons, so old architecture preserved. Food good value, as many coffee/tea refills as you like. Can be difficult to place order at bar if drinkers hang around it. I object to Tim (Mr Wetherspoon) leaving pro-Brexit propaganda on easels and on tables. He has his views, but does he have to push them on to his clientele?

Two weekends ago I turned 18 and I had drinks in weatherspoons with Family and friends. Tonight Kiera Best was not only rude but she refused to serve me! She has served me before and because she doesn’t like me she refused to serve me and made out she didn’t know how old I was! She was extremely rude to me and my friend and tomorrow I will be taking this further! I am disgusted by her behaviour tonight and me and my friends will be taking this further tomorrow! And because of the threats she made I will also be contacting police. Many thanks

Once again the white hart can not serve up hot food scampi and chips cold when will a group like weather spoons get it right how hard is it to cook hot food? Will not be going back

The pub was friendly and service good. Did not wait long for our meals, and wham I made a mistake on the order, it was rectified with no fuss :) Good number of vegan options - thank you!! Prices v reasonable. The only down side was that, being 4th Jan, I'm not sure the cleaning staff had got back into action yet - toilets and corridor a bit manky. Overall, enjoyed our lunch out.

Popped in and met friends. Enjoyed the usual great value wetherspoons offers. Pub is great inside, parking very limited - and thats the only downside

We had guests eating with us we orderd sepperatly me and my perants orderd first and we dudent get our food untill 2 hours after our guests had eaten the food was cold burned and dry they replaced our food but ut was the same we asked for a refund but it was not given im dissopointed

The Crowborough Cross is a great pub with a good range of cheap drinks and a fantastic interior that blends old and new together really well. The pub is a bit of a maze but that’s a benifet as you can find somewhere quiet to sit if it gets too noisy.

Undercooked pizza and indifferent service. Used to be good but they seem to have become used to being the only (former) decent pub in town. The white hart does it all better for a similar price.

Stayed in Crowborough Saturday evening and went to the Crowborough Cross for dinner and a drink.

In 2015 Wetherspoons saved this listed building from dereliction with a very costly refurbishment and extension. It is very well run, with exceptional service and great value food and drinks. Family friendly too. Smartphone app for ordering is pure genius. Thanks for improving our town!

Visited last in 2017 and was able to drop in again yesterday. The place is full of character and the food is well up among the best in the chain. We took friends who had not previously eaten at a Spoons and they were amazed at the value. It made for a very pleasant evening. Food ordering was easy and when it came all our meals were nice and hot. Staff were a little bit under pressure, trying hard to keep on top of things. Could clearly do with an extra pair of hands. They are actually advertising for such. The three young ladies we met were still very pleasant and cheerful however. We shall return.

Went in with my wife for lunch ordered meal saw meal put on servery witch it sat on for 15 min before coming to table by a member of staff who was not working as there was only one member of staff the first meal was sent back the reason for this bad service was the manager was holding a staff meeting

De vele biersoorten zijn okay. Het eten is matig, in verhouding met de lage prijs, meer ook niet. Fijne bediening dat dan weer wel. Geen terugkomer.

Food is good quality and very well priced and when we went all the staff we came into contact with were really friendly and helpful. We had a really nice lunch there and would certainly go back.

Crowborough Cross pub is really good value for money Food is great and drinks are cheap enough. Friends and I go at least once a week.Great atmosphere too

very crowded at times limited parking and its difficult to find a parking place food was ok very standard slow service when full very reasonable

I had read the reviews and I regret that nothing much has changed from various customers, the staff are helpful when they are at the bar which they disappear often, the tables are sticky and dirty, the food service is poor and the kitchen staff vanish, the heat alarms can be going for at least 2 minutes before anyone reappears. The Food I had was acceptable but not outstanding, The staff on the hole are the same everywhere moaning but that is normal in my experience. The Ale was well looked after other than that just like the average except Ramsgate which is Still New. It has Plenty of space and little rooms for the peace and quiet

Skinny 8oz Sirloin did NOT have quinoa in the salad as promised. Both steaks full of gristle!! Service perfunctory. “Am I bovered” comes to mind. Asked for sauces and told to get them myself.

Crowborough spoons- great drinking location. Arran in the Kitchen will happily sort out the perfect pizza after a few pints. Connor the mainly cheerful, sometimes grumpy bar staff pours a good pint along with Kira, Luke and Ellie.

Good cheap food in a cosy setting and plenty of choice of where to sit even on a weekend. You don't go here for high end dining and the Traditional Sunday Lunch menu has changed to more of a Sunday Brunch menu. This is not a problem as it does what it says on the tine.

I have been in a lot of Wetherspoons up and down the country and this has to be the dirtiest one. The coffee machine and area surrounding it is filthy. The floor and tables cannot be cleaned properly they have that permanent stickiness and dirty look to them. A couple of occasions I have gone in there in the morning and the staff including what looks like the manager are all eating breakfast and 1 person was behind the bar working. It took 5-7 mins to be served. There is also a lady working behind the bar who coughs fairly continually and doesn't put her hand over her mouth, it's disgusting and she was going on about how ill she was. Why was she working in the first place?? I like the beer and the breakfast is pretty good so that is the only reason I go in there.

Although not busy it was difficult to find a clean table. Found one that wasn’t too bad, but then slipped on the food under the table. Pretty disgusting.

Very enjoyable. Good atmosphere, friendly staff and good service. We found the food very good value. The bar serves good beer and you get a good mix of people

Was enjoying a very nice evening, until decided to order some chips which arrived at the table undercooked, and solid. We politely informed a waiter of this who said he would sort this out. He was gone for less than a minute, after which he dumped the same plate of food on the table and rudely told us they weren't undercooked as they had 'been in the microwave and everything.' Frustrated, we commented that this was an unsatisfying answer, to which the waiter walked back to our table and sarcastically asked if we would like to talk to his manager. When we declined, he continued to grumble under his breath. Working in the same industry, we understand the frustrations of complaints, however, we felt a small problem with our food was dealt with poorly and blown out of proportion.

Nine of us went in for lunch - and had a great time. I'm not always a fan off this chain of pubs but the Crowborough Cross stands out in my view as 'Great',

This was the first time we have been to the Crowborough Cross as we are not local to Crowborough. We found that the pub was well kept, and the bar and food area was clean and tidy. The bar staff were friendly and efficient. The lady behind the bar was helpful in explaining the menu options to us. She quickly went into the kitchen to make sure it was fine when we wanted to make a slight modification to what we ordered. Our food arrived quickly on a warm plate and was very nice. I had the scampi and my wife had the gourmet chicken burger. The chips were cooked perfectly and lovely and crisp. There was also a decent choice of puddings and these were equally as good as our main meal. We were pleased with both meals and thought they were excellent value for money. We would certainly go back to the pub next time we are in the area.

The crowborough cross pub not owned by a big chain company have done an absolutely fabulous job with it refit...

Me and a pal come in every now and then for a pint and some food, you dun know it’s...
