What's happening at The Cross Keys this Autumn
We've got plenty in store as we head into 2025 at the Chef & Brewer collection. From special celebrations with the whole family to quiet catch-ups with your nearest and dearest, we'll take care of the food, drink, and setting, so you can cherish time together. Here's a sneak peek at some of the exciting occasions we've got coming up – we can't wait to spend them with you.
Join us for an Aspall Cyder & Cheese night
Cyder and cheese – a match made in heaven! There's nothing quite like the refreshing tang of Aspall Cyder to balance the creamy richness of top-quality cheese. We love it so much, we thought we'd bring in Aspall's incredible in-house cyder expert to host an evening dedicated to this perfect combination.
On Wednesday 19th November from 6-8pm for £25 per person, you can enjoy a two-hour guided session, where you can sip, sample and explore a world of Aspall Cyder paired with the area's finest local cheeses, all from the comfort of your favourite pub. Find some new favourites and prepare to have your palate delighted.

Sips & Picky Bits for £20
There’s nothing better than catching up with friends over good food and drinks. Our new Sips & Picky Bits deal makes it even better—£20 gets you any three starters or sides plus two drinks.
Perfect for autumn evenings, after-work nibbles, or spontaneous pub trips, available Monday to Friday from 29th September to 31st October 2025.
New Autumn Sips
It's autumn, and our pubs are alive with the familiar hum of lively chatter, laughter and the clinking of glasses — honestly, our favourite sound! And just in time, we've rolled out a brand-new line-up of toast-worthy tipples, perfect for those long, cosy autumn evenings next to the comforting crackle of our roaring fire or lively get-togethers with friends that make it all worthwhile.
