The Golden Cross

Popped in for a couple of drinks before Lloyd Cole concert at the Cathedral. Really nice place with friendly locals (what I would call a "proper" pub), surrounded by noisier, trendier bars which we like to avoid! The barman was very friendly and helpful with recommendations for local gin & mixers. We will have to try the food next time as it looked really good. Hope to return if we're ever back in the area.

I'm sorry I didn't take any photos, I meant to and I forgot! 🙄 this was a lovely, relaxed and friendly atmosphere I would liken it to sitting in a large living room with a bar at the end! the staff were friendly and welcoming, I visited with my partner, on Thursday 28th of September. We had an evening meal, I booked the table for 6pm, we both had the tempura prawn starter, which was presented very nicely with drizzled sauce over the plate, we had five large prawns. For our mains we both had the Chicken Supreme, with a lovely mustard mash, and green beans and carrots the Chicken was cooked properly, and not dry! the sauce was a creamy stilton sauce, which was lovely, but you don't get much on the plate, so I asked for and paid £1.50 for. We both felt our meals were worth what we paid, as the quality was good, the only slightly negative thing I have to say is we would have liked a bit more vege on the side. We would both definitely go back, they also have live music nights it's usually rock/indie music, which interests both myself and my partner.

Great menu. Totally gluten free, not that the menu screams that at you- it's just a small comment at the bottom of the page. It's odd, looking at a menu without GF beside everything but trying to understand you can eat everything on the menu. The food was fabulous, dare I say "you can't tell it's gluten free" and neither could my companions who are gluten eaters :) After a return visit, this time for the Korean BBQ chicken burger, I can say it is still living up to high expectations.

If you're coeliac / gluten / wheat intolerant, then this is the place for you! The whole menu is gluten free. The food is excellent & there are lots of vegan and vegetarian choices on the menu as well. It's in the centre of the city, so ideal for lunch or dinner & tables can be booked online via the website. We'd definitely go back.
