Great pub with excellent well kept real ale. Started using this pub with another retired mate of mine about a month ago. What a fantastic find. We 'attempt' the Friday crossword over a couple of beers. Great staff and good pub atmosphere. Ten out of ten, highly recommend

Great little find! Well priced beer and a great outdoor space! We'll be back for their Sunday roast next time!

Stopped selling San Miguel, so wont be going there again, now selling Cruzcampo, decent lager £6-20 a pint, pub half a mile away selling for £4-35 how can that be justified, rip off!!

lovely local pub with traditional food and friendly staff

Popped in for a quick pint or two. Friendly welcome. Nice enough but well tucked away up a side road from Orpington high street.

Tried to go for lunch but despite website advertising they are open from 12 midday it was closed.

Great little boozer away from the Hihh Street

Fabulous! Great atmosphere, good service.

Quite small pub, but well run & staff were friendly also it's got a nice beer garden!!!

A pleasant family gathering for Sunday lunch at the cricketers, Orpington. Food good and very friendly and efficient staff.

Nice pub and location, they closed the kitchen by 8 pm on a weekend, a bit disappointed.

Held 60th celebration in the back room. Dan and all the staff were fantastic. Thank you.

This pub has definitely improved. Great indoor and outdoor space, with lots of seating, plenty of choices for drinks. The food is fine - definitely not bad but this is not a gastro pub, but reasonably priced standard pub grub. Lord of choices for kids. Very near Orpington high street and by a nice little green, great local spot.

It's a boozer!🤣 Nice local pub. Great staff. Good selection of yummys

Hired out an area for a party.. excellent food and lovely accommodating staff. Really impressed!

Really great garden area and staff always friendly.

Great local. Staff are friendly, food especially Sunday roast is enjoyable & the atmosphere is warm and friendly. Lovely pub.

Great little 'local' pub, by which I mean it has all the positives of a community pub but it welcoming to everyone. Good selection of drinks all served with a definite smile and a warm welcome and at reasonable prices. Sunday Roast is absolutely exceptional, delicious and big portions. Staff and customers always seem happy to be there.

Very lovely pub with homely atmosphere, great service and fabulous food. We’ve been here a couple of times for Sunday Roast and every time we’ve really enjoyed ourselves - highly recommend.

Had a fantastic time here on Sunday with the family. Friendly, great food and plenty of choice for drinks. Thank you

Great place! Really friendly people and the food was so nice

Warm friendly atmosphere, very nice lunch.

Okay pub but has loud music coming out of speakers.

Very friendly pub with Harvey's on tap and good value tasty food. Worth going out of your way from Orpington High Street to find on Broomhill Common.

Not to shabby but good for pint or two.

Love this friendly pub. Exceptional choice of Dead Man's Finger Rum.

Very friendly landlady. Nice pint.

Friendly staff and a really good Sunday roast!!!!

very lovely pub, food is good too

warm welcome, nice crowd , Good house wine 👌 Would be happy to go back☺️

What a lovely pub, transformed from run down to pleasant venue for a pint. Staff helpful and polite and the facilities are excellent. Well done.

Nice little local pub. Decent lunch.

A great local independent pub.Great food and nice outdoor area.

Newly refurbished yet traditional Pub with occasional live music, food look good, worth a visit

Hidden gem. Popped in on the off-chance for a pint and sampled their food. Fairly simple well prepared, no nonsense pub food and very good value too. Will go again...

We’ve been here a couple of times now and really enjoyed the whole experience. Sunday roasts are amazing and last time we went on 09/07/2022, it was a beautiful evening with a live singer and we sat outside. Staff are very helpful and friendly and the pub is situated in beautiful surroundings.

Food good staff friendly will come again

Well done in investing into this place. Looks so much better and feels better than before. Homely, kind service with a smile. Great food and offers too. Looking forward to more summertime at my local dog friendly pub. Worth a visit if looking for something quaint and special.

Nice pub, friendly staff, gave my child some orange for free,

Been done up to a very high standard. Food is well priced and fresh. Staff are lovely. Love it.

Friendly venue good food and excellent value will be going back. Really enjoy able visit

The staff are always very helpful the beer is nice and cold. And the food is very good and on Sundays the roast meals are excellent and very popular. I would advise booking for Sunday meal.

Having not been in the Cricketers for a long time I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. Nice atmosphere, good beer. The fish and chips were a bit oiley but the price was very good. Had a nice time and would definitely go back.

Nice cozy back street pub with friendly staff. Nice selection of largers/ales, wines and spirits. Food is pretty good but could be a bit more inspiring as alot of competitin with modern day pubs now. Chislehurst pubs are better! Back garden will be good for the summer but could do with modernisation. Toilets are lovely and clean and modern.

Local pub for local people with a nice buzz and friendly bar team. The food is really nice too!

Fantastic pub, friendly staff, great location, what’s not to like? Booked here to host a 30th Birthday and they were more than happy to accommodate every request. Fantastic night and would not hesitate to host it here again. Dan and the whole team are brill, check it out you won’t be disappointed. 10/10.

We recently visited the Cricketers for Sunday lunch for a family birthday. The pub is warm, welcoming and the staff were very friendly. We all had roast dinners but with different meat choices and everyone really enjoyed their food. The deserts were very nice too. We didn’t have to wait long for our food which was great as we had a baby, young children and a dog with us. The drink selection was really good and can recommend the Pinot Noir! We will return again soon.

Very nice pub Warm feeling to it. Friendly staff and nice choice of drinks

We had my Dad's (surprise) 80th birthday celebrations here. Staff were brilliant, we had a buffet which was really good and we had space in the room at the back which was perfect. Thank you Cricketers

This little gem was an amazing find Hosted a Baby Shower here on Saturday and cannot express how accommodating The staff were. Dan was very flexible and encouraged us to decorate, provide a playlist that he played through the function room sound system, he allowed us to go in early before the booking to decorate too. There is plenty room for a sit down occasion or a full disco/dj party. A back door leads out to the garden and a separate area too. The room has plenty of sockets and a bar, buffet food is an option too. Had an amazing time and everyone complimented on the venue and how quaint, country-feel yet quirky it was. Perfect, Thank you !

First time in The Cricketers felt so welcome. Really pleasantly surprised, my friend has just moved close by so we thought we would give it a try. Had a look at the menu looked impressive, ordered some chips as we weren't that hungry. Went down a treat. Will definitely be back

Very very friendly stuff and nice atmosphere. And it was great that they have proper cutlery , including a baby size sauce jar for children. Clearly they have put lots thoughts into making the place family friendly. However, the food is unfortunately not great and price is high for what you get. The lamb for my roast meal is cold when served, the roasted vegetables are not crispy. The dessert is overcooked and dry which I couldn’t finish. You can get much better and quality meal for similar price in a couple of other restaurants on the high street. Such a shame as the staff are wonderful but the food is a let down.

Brilliant pub! Really friendly staff, great food, reasonable prices, good selection of drinks and dog friendly. What is not to love!

Amazing, this place never fails to disappoint, exceptional Sunday Roasts. Staff and service are brilliant 😊

Been twice now, and will be going again, but u guys seriously got to sort the menu out. No vegetarian or fish options apart from quorn or fish n chips. We was sat in the ‘dining area’ and all I could hear was a very loud radio and the constant noise of the door to the kitchen being opened, it was like being in a greasy spoon, not the ambience u want when u go out for a nice meal. I get u guys are new to this, but u need to iron out these problems or risk losing regular customers. I now phone ahead to see what u have on the menu, and I will avoid sitting to the rear bar so as not to listen to the constant noise of the door to the kitchen being opened and loud radio. Twice now we have ended going to an alternative venues because of these issues. May not sound much, but looking at the comments, I’m not alone. Also the high chair/tables are not good for diners. I spoke to a family who also said the same thing who were sat to the rear where there is normal sized furniture, but also the noises mentioned above. On a positive note. This is the best pub in the Orpington area. You guys have done an excellent refurbishment of the Cricketers, and we definitely be going to this fine pub on a regular basis, albeit when u have sorted the menu.

Quality pub, nice atmosphere. Food is on point & the beers flow nicely. Watched a couple of the Euros games in there and it was such a good night each time. Best pub I’ve been to in a long time!

Lovely update and decoration of an old boozer. A pleasure to go to now, with good food and good service.

The Cricketers has always been a very good pub and it still is👍

Have worked here 11 years n not just saying this but it's a great place and would recommend popping though and see what you think!

Been my local for over 20 years. Having a well needed refurb. Will be serving food as well

lovely little place in a quiet area

Nice friendly atmosphere, good service from staff.

Lovely little pub. Hidden from the high street. Friendly staff and a great pint

It is a lovely pub it's just been redecorating, good beer the staff are great we'll worth a visit you won't be disappointed

Appears to be closed at the moment. Inside there seems to be a lot of building work going on, so not sure if it will reopen as a pub or as an alternative use. Be good if owners could give an update

Very friendly. Recently changed hands. met the new owner who described the plans to undertake an extension refurbishment which he hopes to start soon.

Traditional village pub feeling

This pub is situated a short walk from Orpington High Street on a quite residential street and was established in the mid to late 1800's. It has character, the owner/staff are very friendly. A decent selection of Ales and live sporting events are shown on a decent sized screen. Sadly no food served.

Great local local. Wonderful people and owners. Great TV and beers.

Laid back and friendly old school pub

This place is good for meeting friends

Very friendly people and good beer.

Lovely family, friendly pub. Big pub garden

Lovely old pub with friendly locals and a good pint

Nice friendly family pub great atmosphere

A quiet little local pub with a nice atmosphere and a big garden for the summer

Traditional English pub, great atmosphere, good selection of real ales that are regularly changed, good crowd get in there, fantastic garden for the summer and play areas for the kids. Also has a jukebox, a fruit machine and a dartboard.

Been coming here for over 30 years.

Great little pub also do nice food always look forward to going in there
