Quinno _ left this review about The Cross Hands
Rough and ready local's pub serving the estate. Didn't even look open when I went past and I had to double-back when I saw someone emerge. Basic inside, a three-pronged interior with drinking off left, darts alley in the middle and a conservatory style corridor with decent views across the way. Two cask pumps labelled with Doom Bar and Tribute but neither were on, so a bottle of the latter sufficed for a reasonable 4 quid. Three fruit machines, TV football, Sweet Caroline blaring out and robust locals. Must have been a wood fire somewhere as I could smell it. Got a friendly cheerio from behind the bar as I left, so an extra mark there as I certainly didn’t fit their demographic.
