Cross Keys Inn - Knaresborough

With its smart and clean decor, consistently top class ales and excellent service, the Cross Keys is now our preferred starting point when meeting for a few pints in town. Overall, it’s probably the best pub in Knaresborough town centre and has been for a while.

We popped in last night for a drink and stayed all night. Lovely bar staff who made us feel very welcome during their quiz night and even offered free pie and peas. We didn't win but we won with our choice of pub, thank you

Regrettably I have just had my last drink in this establishment.My Sunday lunch-time drink was interrupted by the showing, on the TV, of 'The game ' ..I don 't care whether it is the World Cup or the Coffee Cup I can not envisage ANY situation where I would remain with TV sport.No doubt the raised volume was for the 'benefit ' .. or the 'annoyance ' of all in the pub. Whether they wanted it or not. Shame! Because darned good beer!

A good pub getting better a busy afternoon ,with good atmosphere,good service and well looked after beer that's why it gets better.

Place used to be great but really gone down hill. Walked in and the smell hits you. When asked what dark rum they has it was met with what you can see . Asked if they had ginger beer and was answered with a statement that they have ginger ale. I said that i was asking about ginger beer and was answered with same with a cold stare and then I was accused of being rude. I advised that i was asking about Ginger beer and was told again I was rude. Clearly this yiung lady needs some customer service skills or there is a need for onother staff member it stress is felt with just one on duty. If asking a queation is rude timea have cleary changed. Needless to say I vacated (after advising that opinions are like ars holes as everyone has one) and will not be returning
