The Cross Keys in Mid Suffolk

Very sorry to say our meal was mediocre, which is a shame as I would love to support this community local pub. I felt the menu choices were fairly limited, the only main special was the pie - roast pork and leek, which I thought an odd combo for a pie. I had the chicken burger - the bread was that floppy cheap sort of roll that comes ready cut, the burger was just OK, nothing special. The service was very good however, no complaints there. Maybe we just hit a bad night.

Sunday roast at this lovely country pub. Welcoming atmosphere, stoves/fires lit, brilliant staff, really delicious food. Just a lovely experience which we enjoyed tremendously. The only downside - some elements of the Sunday Roast are costly extra sides. Pigs in blankets is understandable. Cauliflower cheese, maybe.. But paying extra for stuffing was surprising. We were there to celebrate a special occasion so it didn't matter in this instance. But it would affect us being able to afford Sunday lunch here regularly.

We chose to go here because one of our friends is gluten free & she had a good choice of meals. She chose the GF fish & chips and said it was the best she had ever had! I am vegetarian and although there wasn’t a huge choice, what I had (the Mediterranean veg tart) was very nice. The men both chose steak which they thoroughly enjoyed. It’s also good to know that although we didn’t take our dog on this occasion, the pub is dog friendly. Will definitely be returning.

Brilliant evening. Pub surprisingly busy for a Thursday night. Super attentive staff. Lovely food, wine and atmosphere. Molly the collie loves the free doggie treats on the bar ! Great Camden stout on tap. Great bar snacks. It’s all good

Really good welcome from the staff here - very friendly, particularly the waitress we had who was lovely. Our food was tasty and came in good time, ribs looked amazing, and didnt even fit the plate - huge portion. My only comment might be that the moussaka was too runny, so I asked for some bread to soak it up. But we will return, because it is a lovely pub, with good parking and wonderful staff.

I'm reviewing a lunch visit, but I've enjoyed beer here many times. Visited in summer with an elderly relative who was well looked after. Simple bar snacks - chips, whitebait, etc. Very well made, generously sized. But the big stars of the show are the beer, which is always excellent, well kept and served, with pride and care, and the location, on a pretty East Anglian street, with the front of the pub facing sunwards. There's also a generous garden, with mature trees, and a fun wooden ship for kids a decent distance from the tables. It strikes a good balance between the historic and modern. Worth a journey.

nice to find a lovely country pub. have visited twice now and would recommend it. meals lovely and tasty. The pub has a lovely atmosphere, staff are delightful.

We went for dinner here on Friday evening. Place was very busy but we had booked a table. The food was excellent very tasty and a great atmosphere. Excellent value for the price.

After experiencing this pub today, we realized it probably won’t be here next time we visit. Food took more than an hour, some items were wrong and those that came were tasteless, unseasoned and with frozen vegetables. They put spicy chili sriracha sauce described on the menu as ”red pepper sauce” on a burger which it made it inedible, order 3 IPAs, got 3 stouts. Lamb was tough, with No mint or herbs. Understand why on a friday night it was so empty, next time we also do as everyone else and go to Rickinghall instead. Over £150 for the experience.

Visited on the 15th March for a late Mother’s Day lunch after looking for ages for somewhere different to eat! Came across this pub after scrolling through Google, reading the wonderful reviews and also looking to see the vegetarian options on the menu as one of our party is vegetarian and can be hard to find places that have a nice variety the menu was very inclusive for them too so I was instantly sold! Walked in around 12.30 and was informed to sit wherever we liked and showed where there was more seating, found a beautiful table just by the window with a lovely view of the village! Greeted very quickly by a very attentive staff member who allowed us time to get seated and look at the menu, I asked if there was anything she recommended from the food menu and gave the options I was stuck between, she was very informative and helpful even though she said she hadn’t worked there long it didn’t seem that way! There was a bit of a wait for food but that was to be expected as we were in the early and everything appeared to be homemade! When the food did come out we were amazed at the presentation and even more taken back by the taste! There was clear plates all round which is amazing as I’ve never known one of us to clear a plate completely! After we were finished we were given time to think about desserts which was nice to not feel rushed and give our main meals time to digest, we all decided on a dessert which was brought out in good time and all were amazingly presented and tasted just as good as they looked! Unfortunately I didn’t get the girls name that served our table but she was amazing! Overall we are extremely happy with the experience we had and will definitely be back in the future as well as recommending to friends and family!

I went for a roast on Sunday 15th October had a roast which was col yes I did complain the took it away, returned it minus roast potatoes red cabbage which was bottom middle of plate was warm but the rest wasn’t

Four of us went to the crosskeys for lunch, and we were not disappointed. They have a new menu and a new chef. The menu had some pub classics, and some other more adventurous dishes. I had the scallops and sea food linguine , my husband had the salt and pepper squid and his favourite liver And bacon, all the food was excellent, and bethan our waitress was lovely, give it ago.

Had Sunday lunch, one pork, one beef it was delicious. Lovely drink & great service too. Thanks very much.

Very disappointed. Had fish and about 10 chips. All very overcooked and dry. My friend had venison and pork raggu, equally disappointed, dry, overcooked tasteless mincemeat on dry pasta. Cannot recommended ☹️

Thought we would give it a try but looks are so deceiving, service was ok but the food was terrible!!! Liver bleeding, cod dry and tasteless linguine dry and no taste all for over £112.00 !! Won’t be visiting or recommending again sorry

Very disappointed with the food. Very tastless, food just chucked on the plate. My father had fish (cod) which was rolled up on the plate which looked like mash potato, dry corn on the cob with tastless chips with a side of pitta bread, which I am not sure why this was in the plate. Very disappointed visited family and was looking forward to a lovely meal which we didn't have.

My wife and I called in on our way back from Beccles, thought we might be to late for some lunch, but surprised when we were offered a table. The young female staff were very polite and helpful the service was also excellent. Food was nice washed down with a nice Ale. Will be popping in again on our way through. Thank you to all.

Beautifully prepared cooked and presented Locally sourced very tasty food In a picturesque village pub. Cooked with skill and attention to detail Generous portions and excellent value for money Varied menu catering for all And excellent choice of local well kept ales Highly recommended.

Great little country pub with an amazing selection of regularly changing beers in the heart of a beautiful Suffolk village. We came for Sunday lunch and the food was brilliant. Starter consisted of some banging fresh water shrimp, and some top quality locally made sourdough. Followed by a classic Sunday lunch cooked with skill, and a beautiful selection of fresh vegetables. Quality produce, cooked to perfection in a great British village pub, What’s not to like! If you haven’t been your missing out. Only criticism is your under selling your self on price! For that quality and quantity you could be charging more. Can’t wait to return.

On holiday from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 we visited the pub one evening after hearing there were new tenants and enjoyed it so much we just had to go back to sample the food..new chef..the pub is cosy and the staff are excellent..there is a friendly atmosphere and the landlord and landlady (Steve and Rachel) are very friendly and welcoming.. the food was exceptional…plenty choice..very well cooked and reasonably priced… I shall certain return on my next visit to Suffolk… if you are lucky enough to live locally to this pub then please use it… BBKM

We visited The Cross Keys for a meal with friends. Steve gives you a lovely welcome and its a proper old style country pub. A good selection of real ales and nice wine. The menu was varied with a good choice. The food was excellent !!. Beautifully cooked and presented. We cleared the plates. We will be returning very shortly to sample the Sunday lunch.

Welcoming, lovely traditional decor and bar scene. I understand this is now run by the local community. Well, they can be proud of their efforts. Bit of a wait for our food order to be taken and brought to us, due to a party of about 15 booked for a golden wedding party, but it proved the staff could rise to catering for a celebration as well as 6 ramblers! Delicious food nicely presented and plenty of it. Highly recommended.

Our 1st trip to the pub as a Sunday treat (saving on the cooking) but honestly wished we hadn't gone. My Dinner (nut roast) was passable though not worth the money but my wife's (same) was completely inedible. The roast was burnt, the potatoes underdone...

Popped in on a Wednesday lunch after a lovely walk with our dogs. We had a few drinks and a really lovely lunch. The staff were lovely and we were lucky enough to sit in the beer garden for a bit which is very pleasant....

Had a fantastic Sunday lunch here today. Brilliantly accommodating of vegetarian and gluten free requirements. Food well priced. Great selection of ales and really welcoming atmosphere.

We arrived on New Year’s Eve an hour before quiz night, the pub had laid on hotdogs or burgers with spiced potato wedges, we had a pint and a glass of wine, total cost of one burger with wedges, one hotdog with wedges and the...

I first visited this pub with family in the latter part of 2019 which was a poor experience. The food was lovely however our waitress I believe her name was Julia was hands down the worst and least professional front of house member I have...

We had no idea this pub was run by volunteers until we had arrived and ordered. The food was really good and the atmosphere relaxed and friendly. Will definitely return! Thank you to everyone giving up their time to make our Friday evening so enjoyable...

Visited on a Thursday evening for a very reasonably priced bottle of Pinot Grigio and dinner. We had the vegan burger and it was honestly the best burger we've ever had. The burger was juicy, the "bacon" smokey, and the "cheese" really good for vegan....

Terrific food and well kept beer so perfect for me! We took a table in the garden on a balmy evening and had a lovely time. I must mention the chef (or rather his wife) for the fantastic satay sauce, clearly made with love and...

Fantastic food and service. A very busy Saturday of the Easter Weekend. Food was lovely and piping hot and home cooked. Our waitress was one of the volunteers and looked after us very well. She coped very well and was very ‘patient’ with us! Highly...

Our Walking Group wanted to have lunch after our Wednesday walk. We had chosen to walk near Redgrave, so asked the Cross Keys if they could feed us. They catered specially for us all (not all pubs would do that!) The service was excellent, the...

Good food, large portions too, service very friendly and quick, loads of real ales to choose from as well as a choice of lagers and ciders

This is such a lovely way to finish off the week. We ordered fish and chips to take away. It was ready on time and was absolutely delicious. The fish was thick and white and the batter was very crispy. The chips were the best...

We visited on Sunday 20th of February for lunch we were staying in a holiday home in Redgrave so thought we'd treat ourselves and we certainly weren't disappointed. There were 13 of us (including 3 children) The pub is beautiful they staff we're very friendly...

18 of us Redgrave Old Codgers (ROCs) booked in for an Xmas lunch yesterday and what a great afternoon/evening we had. The food was beautifully cooked and presented and there was nothing but praise from everyone. Everything arrived quickly, and was hot and plentiful. One...

Four of us went to the Cross Keys yesterday evening for the festive menu. It was one of the best, if not the best, Christmas meals I have ever had. The surroundings were beautiful and the service excellent. But there were only four of us in the restaurant for the whole evening.This is a community owned pub and it is not getting the support it deserves

Sunday lunch for two turned out great. Unfortunately it was my tern to drive so Diet Coke rather than one of the interesting selection of real ales on offer was the order of the day. I had the beef and my wife the Nut Roast. portions were decent and there was about six different vegetables including cauli-cheese which was superb. we were running late so did not have time for desert but we will definitely be back soon. Prices were reasonable too.

We visited this pub on the off chance of being able to grab a table for a roast. The waitress was very accommodating and seated us in the bar area! We both ordered a lamb roast and the food was delicious. The roast potatoes deserve special mention as they were perfection!!! Next time we hope to book so we can sit in the main restaurant - which looked lovely- as the bar was a tad cold for me (personal preference!!) and there were a few flies! I would highly recommend eating here

We had two lovely evenings at The Cross Keys. The food was excellent and so tasty. The staff were very friendly, efficient and welcoming, especially Mia and Jacob on Friday night and Rose and Julie on Saturday. This is a community pub and we would highly recommend a visit.

Visited on a Friday lunch time and sat I the lovely beer garden with our dog. Staff were very nice and helpful. We had a veggie burger and a root veg masala, both were absolutely delicious. Myself and my partner gave a 10/10 for both dishes. Would highly recommend a visit

Thursday lunch - specials and regular menu - we both had grilled gammon steaks…. They were the best and the deserts were also brilliant, rounded off with really good coffees.Apart from that, the welcome and service couldn’t have been better.There was also a nice buzz to the place, so we’ll be back.- thanks, we loved it and would recommend it.

Recommend by our Airbnb host this pub, run by the locals, was delightful. A very simple menu, but everything done to perfection - especially the poutine; posh chips, cheese and slow braised beef.

We booked a table to ensure we were inside during the hot weather and the restaurant was nice and cool. My wife and I both ordered the beef roast dinner, we can honestly say that it was the best Sunday roast we have had for a long long time. The beef was cooked to perfection and the vegetables were also cooked well and loads of them. My wife had the brownie and ice cream desert which she says was very yummy. The beer was also in perfect condition excellent pint of Victoria gold. My wife had a soft drink. As a community run pub the staff were a mix of paid and volunteers. The service was excellent.

The food we had here was so so good. I was really impressed and would highly recomend it to anyone who enjoys traditional charming English pubs, that cook fantastic food and serve great beers.I had a beautifully cooked sirloin steak which came with some big chunky chips and a delicious side salad. I fancied a peppercorn sauce with it (which wasn't on the menu) so I chanced asking for one anyway. The waitress and the chef were more than happy to accommodate. And it was a really nice sauce as well. Rich, creamy and packed full of peppercorns.My Dad had the same, and said his was equally good.We both had a couple of pints of Edith cavell beer, which as my Dad lives nearby, informed me it's from the Wolf Brewery in Attleborough, just a few miles from Redgrave. "A proper local Brewery". And it's without doubt one of best pints I've had in ages.My partner had the fish and chips which she said was fab, and my mum really enjoyed hers too.The pub itself is a beautiful tradional pub in a real chocolate box village location overlooking a red telephone box, village green (with outdoor tables on), village shop and pond. It's the type of pub that are sadly disappearing all over the country.This one was saved by the local community and they've now installed permanent managers and a full time chef. Which you can tell, as it's really well run, serving great stuff and is well supported by the community volunteers.Definitely a place worth going out of your way for, and you'll also be doing your bit to keep an independent pub and staple of village life alive.We'll be visiting again soon.

Had the Easter Afternoon Tea yesterday: fantastic! Both the quality and variation of food were unbelievable. A real treat. The Cross Keys are making a real effort.

Just enjoyed a wonderful afternoon tea from the Cross Keys. Generous sized sandwiches, scones, sausage rolls and hot cross buns plus a lovely variety of cakes. Couldn’t eat them all, looking forward to leftovers tomorrow! Beautifully presented. Vegetarian option also available. Ordering was very easy over the phone.

Never mind being fed up with lockdown, we LOVE being 'fed up' with the Cross Keys weekly takeaways!! Fish & chips, a great curry, a tasty burger or a wholesome homemade pie.... they're all delicious and are one of the few brilliant things which have come out of lockdown. As for the Sunday roasts with the option of a delicious calorie-loaded pud...... they're magic! If you need a pick-me-up, this is the place to sort you out!

We have had a Sunday roast and curry takeaways from The Cross Keys over the past month and they have both been super delicious. The portion sizes are generous, the flavours are great and it's fantastic to be able to get tasty food without having to cook! Thanks to all at the pub. Keep it up!

We continue to be impressed by the superb quality of the the meals provided by this pub. Fridays beef ribs were the most delicious I have tasted for a long time. I look forward to being able to dine in the pub with choice from a full menu. Congratulations too, to their talented chef, Graeme Woracker on his gastro-pub quality food.

We’ve just enjoyed the best value take-away meal specially prepared for Valentines. The chef is excelling himself with the style and quality of the meals he is preparing for take-aways and how he manages it at the prices charged, I don’t know. Brilliant value, thank you.All that delivered by the front of house team who make the whole thing a pleasure!

We knew the food was good in the Cross Keys having sampled their food many times pre-lockdown so we decided to try the Friday takeaway menu and this week it was "Burger night" It was simply DELICIOUS! no need to say anything more other than it was one of the best takeaways we've had - full stop! Well done to all at the Cross Keys!

Friday takeaways from the crosskeys have become our new treat. The fish and chips curry snd burger nights have all been excellent. Can't wait for pie night this week. Keep up the God work.

Our roast on Sunday was absolutely delicious. I honestly wasn't sure what to expect from a takeway roast but it was packaged so thoughtfully and worked brilliantly. We had beef and chicken and both were fantastic (and huge!) and the puddings were great too. And we felt completely safe with all the Covid related procedures you had put in place. Thank you so much!

Picked up our roast beef takeaway earlier today and it was delicious. Sirloin of beef Yorkshire pud roast tates veg gravy and brownie for dessert..On time in our 5 min slot too. Thank you. Paul

Once again exceptional food and service on the very popular Friday night takeaway- this week fish and chips and it was delicious well done everyone 😁👏

We’ve just enjoyed a lovely Sunday Roast followed by a superb dessert.Well done the Cross Keys, wonderful Community Pub.Good value and very good food.

Visited the Cross Keys on Saturday evening for supper having been waiting for weeks for a visit.The chef made a special effort and cooked an amazing vegan 3 bean chilli with rice and a flat bread for us. It was absolutely delicious and deserves to be on the menu as a permanent fixture! Staff were lovely as always and we had a lovely time. Felt extremely safe and comfortable. Thank you!

Last, dinner and the special steak deal was exceptional. Rump steak and a glass of good red wine. The steak was as near to perfect as possible, so tender and the delicious mushrooms on top of it kept it beautifully warm till the last bite. No heavy sauces so the steaks flavour really came through.The autumn fruits crumble with real custard afterwards was brilliant too!

Welcoming ,Covid safe and relaxing little country pub. It was our first visit and we will definitely return once we come out of lockdown . We had fish and chips and a couple of drinks ,friendly table service ( chatty, cheerful staff ) and a tasty meal.It ticked all the boxes for a cosy Saturday night supper. See you soon Crosskeys.

Lovely community owned pub we found whilst staying nearby, the food was excellent. The burger was very good, probably the best pub burger I’ve had, and the sticky toffee pudding was amazing. The chef makes everything from scratch and the bar staff were attentive and welcoming. Really recommend visiting

Great to see this pub thriving again.The chef needs to be commended & the volunteer waiting staff try their hardest.I would certainly recommend this hostelry to others !

Dinner this evening was delicious. 3 different main courses served to our table and clean plates all round.So lucky to have a talented chef here at The Cross Keys when so many village pubs are closing.Well worth a visit with lovely staff and a friendly atmosphere.

My wife and I booked a table with two friends saturday 24th october for 7.30pm. First impressions of the pub from outside was very classy looking! the inside was also superbly decorated .I ordered 3 courses starting with the soup ,then the lamb special followed by fruit crumble with homemade custard ,What a superb meal you would be hard pressed to have such a high quality meal in a 5 star restaurant.Needless to say every body on our table felt the same way.We will definitely go back .Overall a very friendly pub with very good service .

So lovely to see the pub thriving again. Had a meal there yesterday evening and it was fabulous. Thank you Graham x

Visited for fish special nightDrinks took about 10 minutes to arrive which given 2 bar staff seemed slow.Food arrived on cold plates, chips were lukewarm & very pale in colour,- undercooked?Fish was good, if a little pale in colourYoung waiter tried hard & has potential.Overall very average meal.

I came here whilst visiting friends who live in Diss and what a fantastic place to eat or even just to have a drink. The staff are so friendly with a warm welcome to people who aren’t local as well as the locals. Fantastic food, very well priced and excellent staff and a lovely atmosphere. Great COVID precautions in place too. Will definitely be returning! Highly recommended!

We booked a table for Sunday lunch For 6 people had starters which were very nice then had the Sunday roast which was very nice proper home cooked food the service was very good highly recommend this place

We came for dinner and had a memorable time. Great food and equally good service. It was a trip down memory lane for our friend who’d last had a pint here 55 years ago!

We are extremely lucky to have this beautiful pub as our local. As previously mentioned the food is fantastic, especially for us being Vegan. We have tried the vegan burger and also the curry, both of which were excellent. On Monday there was the most amazing display of Hot Rod cars, bikes and classic cars. What a fantastic and well organised event. Lovely staff and fast efficient service. Please have some more events like this! Thank you again. We are very spoilt! Shesha

Fantastic event going on this afternoon. Really wonderful to see a collection of real "Beautys" on the Knoll and surrounding area. Great atmosphere, lively people and very attentive staff, plenty of them too helping to keep waiting to.a minimum....Well done Crosskeys...wonderful to see.....something from the olden days.

Really good burger for lunch - clearly home made and well cooked. Husband reported the beer was excellent as well. Dog friendly in the bar and we felt very safe COVID wise. Would definitely recommend!

Cannot fault the food - baby back ribs were perfectly cooked all washed down with a good local beer and superb service delivered in a nice pub garden. Recommend the crosskeys for couples and families

We were staying nearby and this was in walking distance so we visited twice for food and once just for a drinkWe knew it was a Community Pub and my limited experience of such places made me wary of how we as outsiders would be treated. I needn't have worried as everyone was very friendly and welcoming!The pub has of course had to adapt to new ways of working but they are doing it well and customers and staff are being sensible. Young Heidi (the manager) is doing an incredible job in organising all the volunteers and staff.Oh yes, the beer was great and the food lovingly made and presented Go there!!

Great food and lovely staff. Really enjoy coming here whenever we are in the area and always recommend it to friends and family!

We have been going to the Cross Keys for many years and are so delighted with how amazing it has become. We don't usually eat here only because we are Vegan and it seems a big ask to expect to be catered for. However last week we decided to just ask if there was something suitable and Heidi and Michael couldn't have been more accommodating. We had the bean burger and fries and it was absolutely delicious! Even in these stŕange times they made it all very easy and pleasant for us. We were so excited to be able to eat out and in somewhere so close to home. Many thanks for this. It was a great treat especially after 4 months of cooking! Shesha

Wonderful - just a wonderful place to enjoy a meal and a great drink at very reasonable prices. Staff are so friendly - a Community pub success.

What a fantastic find this place was! The food was absolutely delicious! The staff very accommodating and our experience during these strange times was just great! No matter the weather the garden marquees made outdoor dining possible. Thank you!

Always decent beer and a good atmosphere, very impressed with Sunday roast and the linguini the visit beforehand- fresh ingredients obvious and therefore value for money. Can't wait to eat again.

As a regular Iv seen the Cross Keys improve drastically over the last couple of years, more so since Heidi has taken over and with the new chef. Food can’t be faulted, customer service is great, glad this is my new regular local.

Stumbled upon this pub on a day out. Noticed that it was a community run pub. Fell into easy conversation with a member of staff about this as we have a successful community pub close to us. Regarding the food, we both had the chicken pie, which was tasty if slightly dry and may have been helped with some sauce. Will certainly make a return visit!

Lovely Sunday lunch for my mum’s 70th Birthday. 8 adults and 2 children. Food served promptly which is a bonus with such a large group. The beef roast was tasty. More gravy available on request if needed. They also had kids roast dinners which is a nice touch I don’t like to think of food going to waste. Plenty of drink selection. The waitress even bought over colouring things over for the youngest members of our party. It is local to my parents but I will definitely look to visit again at a later date. Great idea to have a community run pub. We only noticed the pirate ship in the garden on the way out but my little girl was very impressed. Thanks again Cross Keys

i had christmas dinner here and it was first class, the staff are friendly and welcoming . a nice comfortable atmosphere , now i visit on a regular basis.

Had sunday lunch at the Cross Keys. Choose beef, which was beautiful, moist and cooked just right. An excellent range of veg. Made very welcome and a real buzz in the pub.

Booked for Sunday Roast for 5Staff very welcoming and food served very quickly, hot and big portionsVegetables -roast potatoes with rosemary and garlic, cauliflower cheese, broccoli, curly kale ,carrots, roast parsnips and with homemade Yorkshire pudsThis is a free house with a good selection of unusual ales at very reasonable pricesThis Community pub is Definitely on the visit again list

Had a family dinner with 7 people and various visits for drinks and coffee. Friendly welcome and nice atmosphere. The fact that its owned by locals means it has a more sociable feel to it.

Wonderful friendly welcome, great choice of fabulous beers, and a super Sunday Lunch. They kindly accommodated us bringing our dog by reserving a table for lunch within the bar area.

Great village pub.Just lacks final touch (visit Burston Crown). But, overall good and will return. Well done new chef.

Nice oub nice cake free on the bar but unfortunately does not make up for them being pretty unpleasant to me today, when we went in there was a table with papers on it, my partner said we can sit here I said better check lket's see if someone is busy working here so asked a member of staff and she said that we could sit there, so bit surprised when having sat down for a while was tod that the table was reserved fro a party of four and could we vacate our seats, explained to member sof staff, who I am pretty certain was the person that told us we could sit there that I suffer from total kidney failure and really didn't want to spend the whole of our group's stop there standing up said they would find me a seat elsewhere but comsidering there was no seat free in whole pub find it hard to beleive that was going to happen. Do wonder why I was the person who had to rectify the mistake someone had made by obviously forgetting to reservethe table that the person had asked for, I was annoyed becuase if the situation had been explained when we asked if table was free we could have probably found another place to sit before the place was packed out, Sorry feel pretty badly treated and don't think I will ever want to return no matter what other features the pub might offer, suggest they check the law on asking someone who is disabled to give up theor seat for example!!!!

A first visit to this community pub since its reincarnation. Nice welcome and the decor adds an inviting vibe. We had been asked to choose our dishes in advance which was not a problem as we were a largish party. The ocean pie was very tasty but should not have included fish skin (black) in my opinion. The Eve’s pudding was sadly rather dry consisting of a crumbly cake with a faint smattering of apple and, unusually, dried fruit. The cafetière of coffee was very good.

Last night me and my wife went to the Cross keys for dinner. I had the pork chop and it was amazing. Extremely well cooked pork chop with a fantastic red pepper sauce. Served with mustard mash potatoes and perfectly cooked (not over cooked) greens and a side helping of home made pork scratchings. The whole dish was so tasty that I felt i had to write a review. My wife had the fish curry with home made lime pickle which was also very good. With a couple of good beers it was a great evening. Thank you chef and thank you cross keys staff. a great evening.

Wonderful Sunday lunch with six different vegetables, all well cooked, with the bonus of a home made pud to finish, Lovely friendly atmosphere in this community owned pub. Give it a try you won’t be disappointed.

It was our first visit to this lovely country pub since we moved to the area and it certainly won’t be the last.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch with friends, nice friendly pub, food was excellent, had roast dinner, plenty of veg, roast potatoes, we were told there was a new chef,, who is excellent, all home made desserts too. Would recommend.

Best Sunday lunch and delicious dessert ever! Generous portion of meat and really tasty veg and gravy. Yummy!

We went as a party of six for Sunday lunch. We had heard great things about the new chef, Michael, and we were not disappointed - in fact, quite the opposite. The food was plentiful, very well cooked and with wonderful flavours. The meat was cooked to perfection, the roasties soft inside with a crisp and golden outer layer and the (6 different) vegetables were all cooked just right. The service was excellent and the ales and wine were up to the usual Cross Keys standard - ie, very good. The Keys has struggled a bit in the past, but with the addition of Michael as Chef, Heidi as Manager and the continuing excellent work of the committee and the many volunteers, things are definitely on the up and Redgrave now has a community owned village pub to be proud of. Highly recommended.

Food had been very up and down while the pub was having trouble finding a good permanent chef, but they seem to have struck gold with the new guy.

A community run Pub. Just popped in on the off chance, friendly staff, well set out bar and Restaurant good range of beers and menu

Mid week dinner. Just OK. Limited menu for 'pub grub'. Chef is doing well but - change the menu please?
