The Cross Keys in Kirklees

Busy for Wednesday lunchtime compared to some places. Meal was spot on and good beer too. I've lived only a mile and a half away for 40 years and never been.in before. I shall be in again soon 10/10

Excellent food and service , landlord and landlady brilliant!!!!!

Went in on a Thursday night was quiet but staff friendly. Started doing a curry night didn't eat in but asked if they would be able to do a takeaway version for me and they did. Had the chicken tikka, chippati and bhajis. Good price and would actually say was better tasting then some of the curry takeaway places round here.

Manager was friendly, but not very professional, dirty t towel in back trouser pocket. Spent more time sorting energy provider out at the bar. Looked scruffy in jeans and jumper. Had the mushroom starter, not has the pictures stated on the website. Tasted good. Fish and chips to follow. Some of my chips tasted old and warmed up microwave taste, did mention that, fobbed off with it was because they were triple cooked. No they were warmed up. Fish was good. Tartar sauce was very salad cream tasting, not home made. Cheap ketchup. Pub looks a bit scruffy, and a lot of air fresheners about. Toilets needs a new seat. Overall everything dated.

Nice local for occasional pool game and some games

Food wasn't good flat bread just tasted burnt with chicken just sat on no sauce it was just awful I ate it as hungry and paid for it . Others I was with were unhappy too.won't go again . Bar staff lovely.

Nice food, quick and efficient service

Has apparently just started doing lunches - so it was a bit quiet when we arrived at 12.15pm. Filled up a bit as time went on. The service was really good - very friendly staff. The food was amazing gastro-pub fare. I can recommend the Roast of the Day - the beef was thick, generous and tender. My companion had the cajun chicken sandwich with chips. With 3 diet cokes total price was less than £25 as there's currently a 20% discount. Will definitely go again.

Very nice food 😊 very good price, will definitely be going again 😊

Returned after a few months to find things have really improved. Greeted as soon as we arrived and who I presume was the manger could not do enough to help. We tried the Gyros, myself having Pulled Beef Brisket and my wife the Chicken and Chorizo, with a side of Halumi fries. The food was excellent and we will be returning again.

Had a amazing Sunday lunch food was so good and good price for 3 courses. staff were so friendly and professional the food hot and looked and taste 5 * thanks

Lovely Sunday lunch here. It was busy with a nice atmosphere, and mixture of customers. Definitely recommend

Just been for lunch with my wife and her friend, what a disappointment!!! My wife ordered gammon and pineapple with hand cut chips, I had a rare beef sandwich with hand cut twice fried chips. The gammon was like a cube of meat and they had run out of pineapple!! My rare beef was very well done and even crispy on the edges, the hand cut chips were thin frozen chips and the salad garnish was more like rabbit food with a bit of chopped pepper but no tomato. It was our first time here but it will definitely be our last. Two young lads in the kitchen who maybe had had a couple of weeks training each certainly not experienced enough to run the kitchen!!!!!!!!!

It was a very enjoyable experience The food was good and the service was good.

Went for birthday meal and drinks staff are brilliant helpfull food lovely

Oh my days... the food is banging and the service is spot on

Went for a lunch to try out the Cross Keys for the first time. Friendly,polite and professional staff and very enjoyable food at competitive prices. I recommend anyone to give it a try.

Very nice food and service with a smile

The starters were really lovely and we enjoyed looking forward to our mains .when they arrived my husbands lasagne look and tasted really nice .I ordered hunter's chicken. Looked well presented but I must admit I thought there wasn't enough bbq sauce on .mushroom was cold .but to my horror after taking a mouthfull of chicken. It had a funny taste lifted the bacon and the chicken was raw .Full of apologies and replaced without charge for something different although I ended up eating by myself as my husband had finished is by the time mine reappeared. The pub could do with a bit of a face-lift but it was clean

Lovely pub, great welcome. Brilliant service. VERY dog friendly. There's a huge garden out the back with gorgeous views and lots of seating. Food is fabulous. Highly recommended.

Large airy pub with big screen TVs. Staff were excellent. Beer in great condition. Large car park and Beer garden. I didn't eat there, but others seemed to be enjoying theirs.

Old style local pub. Tables and grass "out back" for kids to let off steam in nice weather. Bbq too in hot weather.

An excellent pub,totally changed.there are several beers to choose from (especially my favorite "Tetley's bitter from the cask) The food is brilliant and filling, there's an outdoor area lol it's a field with benches , brilliant for kids .Finally the staff go beyond to help anybody , very skilled at their jobs and the landlord is an exceptional guy ,👍🤟

Just popped in by chance and so glad we did. Very friendly staff and the food was excellent and good value. Will definitely call again.

Very impressed, staff efficient and friendly. Food was first rate, the steak and ale pie, think it was steamed?- was first rate. Great atmosphere, lots of people eating. Great!

Only ever had a few casual beers here whilst out for a walk (one needs a rest). Staff friendly, prices good - even on their premium lagers. Promised myself to return with others to try their food. Fab beer garden at the rear with loads of seating and great views.

Only been in once, but the place was really friendly. Great act on too. The beer garden is massive and really well kept. Will definitely go back.

Decent place , plenty of selection of drinks , gutted they don't do Guinness! Spotted people eating but can't comment on what the food is like. The exterior of the pub is spacious plenty of space to play , huge beer garden and a mini football pitch for the kids. Not an overly huge car park but the main road is spacious enough to leave your vehicle on both sides ( however don't recommend drink driving ! ) Seems a friendly place thats family orientated.

Good to see this place refreshed and busy.

Love this pub with new Guvner Richard. Great beer, banter, snacks, music, sport. Now doing food which is top class and great value.

Lovely friendly staff and fantastic food.

Staff were absolutely amazing, brought water and treats for my pup. Beer garden is very roomy with plenty of seating. Great dog friendly pub. (Don’t worry, the pint is for me!)

Good friendly pub with a good atmosphere

A friendly welcome. Has a nice large beer garden to sit out in this hot weather and enjoy a cold drink.

Top pub top landlord amazing for kids q0 out of ten

Friendly atmosphere. Great service. Excellent recommendations for drinks options. I was the designated driver and asked for something that wasn't fizzy or a J2O. I trued the Erdinger? I'm not sure about the spelling of that, however, it wasn't that bad. There's a pool table, ample parking, an outdoor play area, a large screen TV and comfortable seating. We had a great time there watching the Tyson Fury fight.

Top night all top men, dales keeps the pub in top condition and gives top service

Lovely little pub with great views from the large beer garden

Under new management definitely a locals venue all enjoying the craic the weekend entertainment comprising of a Karaoke Disco in full swing the DJ was chatty and accommodating good service at the bar and excellent selection of beers the manageress clearly has vision for thisvenue + plenty of car parking ...Will definitely be calling again

A right dump since the new landlord has taken over . Was a nice pub to visit a while ago

Beautiful pub with lots of potential the views are to die for needs lots of patience determination,hardwork,love,blood, sweat n tears it could thrive who knows 1day 💙❤

It was a bit quite in the pub, but it was a week night so it's expected. The pub is under new management and it looks like they don't serve food yet, but they said they are getting a chief in as soon as possible. Pub was clean and tidy. The beer was good, but a bit pricey. Had plenty of TV screens to watch the sports. Surprised they didn't have any bar games. No pool table or dart board.

Warm & friendly bar staff, will definitely visit again.

It was a very nice place we had a couple of drinks would call again

Good place, Slightly over priced for the area. But really really good service

Great beer , fantastic beer garden friendly staff and good service what more do you need

Great location, good selection and excellent service

Nice day, nice pint, nice view up there in beer garden, Good atmosphere. What more do we want.

Brilliant pub, gorgeous food, stunning beer garden and fantastic staff!

Friendly staff, good beers, nice atmosphere Will definitely recommend and visit again

Fabulous- amazing views and first class service

Lovely family pub with the added bonus of great food. Sunday lunch is top quality, lamb leg was the highlight but beef and chicken were also fab. The service felt homely and welcoming and all of the staff couldn’t do enough for us. It’s great having a place like this nearby they cater for wheelchairs with good access and plenty of space.

Great pub with friendly atmosphere

Pub with a local ambiance and reasonably priced food wich looks good pleasant atmosphere with an outdoor seating area and child friendly garden area

Fabulous food, relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Staff are so friendly and on the ball, the remember everything. Really love this place, great all round. Thank you.

Went for New Years Eve, we paid £5 a ticket, great service, extremely clean, food provided was top notch plenty of choice. Disco, and a glass of Prosecco at midnight excellent value for the money.

Dave and Vicky agreed to do outside catering for our office Christmas party. Everything was delivered hot, and looked amazing. With a good choice of nibbles on arrival, followed by a great selection of mains, and finally desserts. Absolutely fantastic, thanks to you both 🤗

Only popped in for one ended staying all night so friendly food was amazing staff so friendly and accommodating nothing to much trouble lovely place will be visiting more often xxxxx

Lamb shank was lovely. Home cooked fresh food would definitely go again. Messaged on Facebook to book the meal on friday for sunday all staff are friendly

Lovely and welcoming staff. Great food. Well kept real ale

This is a family friendly pub with the best home cooked food in the area. We love coming here especially for sunday lunch. Owners and staff are lovely and always go that extra mile for customers. Nice big beer garden for kids to play in too.

Had Sunday lunch with friends food was outstanding, rather large portion's wish they did a senior citizens option. All the staff where attentive and hardworking would definitely return.

Excellent friendly family run pub

Stunning I had the lamb shank it was amazing it just fell off the bone my wife had the chicken in a mushroom sauce she said that was the best she ever had,and it was cooked to perfection will definitely be going back. If we had a grouse it would be the wine,Jackrabbit is not in line with the great food. Please please get some better wine.The staff were very welcoming especially Kath who greeted us as if we were regulars but this was our first visit.Welldone to management and staff see you all soon,Thanks for memorable visit.

Nice pub, big grass area at back :)

Great atmosphere,Great food, I would recommend. If you are ever around you should come and try some food or come for a drink

Great night with a fantastic pizza to take away.

Really good service and some perfectly pulled pints

Great homemade pub food, highly recommend

Visited this pub many times now and the quality and service are exceptional, both myself and wife could not fault anything especially the portions, well worth a visit.

Traditional pub with decent beer

Lovely Sunday lunch, warm welcoming pub. Landlord seems a nice guy. Will be back.

Reccommended by friends we visited the Cross Keys for Sunday Lunch. Having booked a table just a few days before we arrived to a very friendly welcome . The bar had a graet selection of superb beers and wines and we enjoyed both as we read the menu. Plenty of choice. We had fish cakes for starters which were beautiful and included a home made tartare sauce. For mains we had the lamb shank and the steak and ale pie, both with perfectly cooked vegatables and both really tasty and very good portions. No room for desserts but the menu offered a good choice. So a very good lunch with beautiful drinks and first class service in an excellent pub. It won't belong before we return.

A nice relaxing pint, friendly staff and customers!

Fantastic service and fantastic food

Great night. Sunday nights are great here.

Friendly local village pub run by a local couple. large rear beer garden with views and children's swings. Car parking. They organise a regular quiz , have sky sports and food occasionally - not tried this.

I havent been for a meal and enjoyed it so much gegorious and staff were brillant will b going there all the time when i go for a meal

Lovely food and a good atmosphere

Rubbish, went for Sunday lunch at 1.30, there was only 3 tables with anyone sat there, so we went and chose a table from the 15-20 empty tables, only to be told if you haven't booked a table we won't serve you, no tables had reserved on. Total joke of a place

Great atmosphere...Lovley staff....lovley people

One of the best Sunday roasts around at a decent price and with quick and friendly service.

Only went for a drink, nice place to sit outside in good weather.

We met some friends for a few drinks to celebrate my friends birthday and ordered some food, it’s amazing . Definitely worth a visit.

Brilliant Sunday lunch, great service and a fab beer garden. Definitely come back as the menu is varied and the drink selection is spot on.

Basic but not bad for a quick bite.
