What a wonderful find this pub turned out to be, being Remembrance Sunday we struggled to find anywhere that had space for us, almost losing all hope of having a roast we followed a sign to this wonderful pub and we were geeeted by friendly staff and had one of the best roast dinners I have ever had!!! The gravy was incredible and such good value too!! We will definitely be going back :0) would highly recommend

We don't know the area and called in the hope they could fit us in after a long day at longleat safari. Staff are very welcoming, I felt like I was cooked a lovely dinner in my home! Nothing was too much bother. Lots of choices on their menu from curry, steak, burger, chilli con carne, garlic bread and more. Veg plate side was gorgeous steak cooked exactly as we asked. Really flexible with our meal requests, accommodating with dairy allergy. Helped us choose and even did a half plate of 2 meals for hubby! Chips are crunchy outside and fluffy inside. Yes the space inside is small, but felt cosy and ever so friendly.

Thanks to Clive (excellent service) and Clare (Chef) , hope I got the names right. We had an excellent evening for our sister's birthday meal. The service was excellent and attentive plus the food was tasty (steak & ale pie recommended plus the Butcombe pint was great for a Northener) Couldn't get to a full dessert so two were split into four, just right! We enjoyed it a lot and hope you would too!

An impromptu visit after driving past an A board, saying good food and smiles. And goodness me this did not disappoint. The atmosphere was amazing, the service was great and so friendly and the food was fantastic huge compliments to the chef and the pepper sauce ...Best I have ever tasted, and I can highly recommend and nothing came out of a tin. All made fresh! Unbelievable experience. Thank you for a great evening. A real gem!

What an awesome little pub! We were passing through and a sign on a random roundabout caught our eye, it read something like pub with a smile. We went around again and took the exit. Boy were we glad we did. The Cross Keys was just a few hundred yards down from the roundabout and had plenty of parking available. We parked, entered, and found ourselves in the pub area. We were asked if we wanted a table and directed towards their restaurant area. Tip ... turn left to the restaurant. The place was bright and cheery and felt homely. We were greeted and seated at table 2, menus were presented, and drinks order taken. Once the drinks arrived we chose our meals. Starter was the garlic and cheese baguette. Delicious! It was fresh warm and so gooey ... gone in mere seconds. The main meals took a little longer (we were advised in advance at ordering time that the kitchen was a bit busy). Wow was it worth the wait!! The mixed grill was so scrumptious and very reasonable priced. My wife had the moussaka, our other two guests had cod and chips, ham egg and chips. Everything presented was fresh and so tasty. We did not ask about the sources, we were too hungry for that. The highlight though was the creamy peppercorn sauce on the side. So absolutely delicious that we found ourselves ordering more for the table. Heartfelt thanks to the team, and compliments all round to the chef. We hope to visit you again whenever we find ourselves passing through or near to Frome!

Booked for a meal with friends who live close by, as we have a dog we were only allowed in the bar or outside which was perfectly acceptable and as it was raining we obviously opted for the bar.. When we arrived the two tables available were rather small for the 4 of us and the dog, but we were allowed to sit on a larger table in the restaurant, which was much appreciated. After ordering our meals, they arrived extremely quickly, most impressive! The meals themselves were well presented and very tasty. All in all, an excellent experience that exceeded expectations. Very grateful to the lady behind the bar who allowed us to move to a bigger table in the actual restaurant, which was very kind of her.

The lovely atmosphere encourages us to return regularly for lunch after a walk in the Somerset or Dorset area during the morning. Good, freshly cooked food to enjoy, is the real reason. A choice of two beers, on pump, is the choice for those who still enjoy a craft beer. A good range of lagers are there to enjoy.

On our way home to Kent on Sunday 5th March we stumbled on this lovely Pub! It had such a lively & warm atmosphere, all the staff were friendly and chatty and made us most welcome. The food we ordered was delicious, I had the small roast beef dinner which was an ideal size for me with a long journey ahead, my husband had steak, and we both couldn’t fault our meals in any way - due we understand to all the hard efforts of Clive and his staff in the kitchen. Well done all! We will endeavour to check you out again either on our way or on our return from Taunton.👍

The Cross Keys is a wonderful cozy bar with excellent atmosphere, homey feel, wonderful, friendly, and sociable owners. They have periodic games of bingo, which I was lucky enough to get in on, the entire bar becomes one big friendly (competitive) family. They serve food (check when the kitchen closes) and have snacks available. Tried several beers they have on tap, liked both. A selection of other drinks. I would HIGHLY recommend a visit if you're anywhere near Frome, and maybe even go out of your way a little.
