About The Cross Inn Pub & kitchen

Set in a pretty village a short drive from Berwick, this is a proper local pub with a kitchen that punches well above its weight. Families are looked after here — kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access, tables outside for when the little ones need air, and free parking that doesn't seem to be a problem even at busy times. Food arrives freshly prepared and generous: pork belly that melts, seafood stew, steak and chips, stuffed mushrooms as a starter, and puddings (sticky toffee, chocolate orange cheesecake) big enough to share. Staff are warm and attentive without hovering, and they'll squeeze you in without a booking if they can. Two honest notes: it gets genuinely busy at weekends, when service can stretch thin, and the dining room can feel stuffy — the outdoor seating helps. Sunday lunch is worth booking ahead.
