I really like this place and have never had a bad experience. There has been misunderstandings with items on the menu, however, they were very accommodating with sorting it out. The food has always been lovely and so has the service.

During our visits to see family in the area, we went to Cross Kitchen multiple times. Their breakfast and lunch menus offer a wide variety of options, and their pastries and buns are exquisite. The courtyard seating adds to the atmosphere and creates a nice ambiance. The staff were attentive and made the experience hassle-free, even with a toddler. I highly recommend Cross Kitchen for anyone looking for a great casual dining experience in the heart of Emsworth.

We came here for some coffees and were very impressed with the location. Although there were a couple of issues with our orders the owners were very keen to correct this and ensue that we had a great experience.
We came here with our 2 dogs who were welcomed here.

A wonderful locally owned place. Really delishous food, super high quality. Best vegetarian food I've had in a very long time.
Filled up on breakfast and couldn't resist a home made cake to take home.

We were visitors to Emsworth and were making our way to Driftwood cafe. Unfortunately for them but fortunately for Cross kitchen there was a wait.
We were so very impressed the minute we arrived.
The waitress Maddie was very attentive helping us with our order.
Good selection of tempting dishes .
Although we didn’t have cake along with pastries looked good.
We liked the open kitchen and bright airy ambiance, with wall art for sale.
So well done you definitely have the right balance, good addition to Emsworth .

Came for breakfast on Sunday morning. Sat outside in the sunny courtyard. We were served really quickly by friendly and efficient staff. We had a great chat with the owner who stopped by to say hello. It was explained that as food is only made to order, there might be a little delay. Despite this, the food came quite quickly. But this was worth waiting for. Genuinely I think this is probably the best cooked breakfast I've ever had. Differentiating factor was the really high quality ingredients. Perfectly cooked and presented. 5 stars!!

Fantastic cafe with a wonderful choice of delicious, beautifully-presented food, with good gluten-free options too. The owners are such lovely people – remembered who I was despite not visiting for a quite a while. They clearly really care about making a visit to their cafe a positive experience for everyone. Will definitely go back when next in Emsworth!

Delicious lunch. Stopped for light lunch & sat outside. Coffees were excellent, followed by homemade soup (pea and mint) with fresh sourdough roll & a Hail Caesar salad. All delicious & followed by an indulgent Brownie. Everything cooked on premises by owners. Service wonderful. Definitely recommend.

Whilst on holiday we called in to the Cross cafe for a drink. We are currently looking at properties within the area and the owners were really fantastic when we asked for advice. The cafe is lovely and clean and the cakes were great. If we are ever are down this area again we will definitely call in again. Great service from everyone

Just passing through today with my daughter wanting just a drink and to my annoyance they had no skimmed milk considering prices were high, not everyone can have fat in their milk! When it came to settling up we had to go to counter (which is fine) but to find a large basket on the counter full to the brim with pastries (that looked nice) but my issue is that it is right next to the till under where ppl would thimble about taking money or card out of purse, in my opinion this should be moved not hygienic at all needs to be moved out of the way!

Whenever I arrange to meet someone for breakfast or lunch I inevitably choose Cross Kitchen.
The food is different enough to be interesting, but not odd! And everything I've ever had there has always been better than expected.
Service, atmosphere, quality...everything is above average...I just wish Cross Kitchen was on my (Chichester) doorstep, and not in Emsworth!

The ambience and decor are wonderful. I opted for the Cross Ruben and goodness me it was fantastic. Beautiful flavours and each morsel made my taste buds weep for more. I followed it up with a Cherry Bakewell Blondie and this also caused further sensory overload. Had a cappuccino for the caffienes and was a stellar experience. If it weren't for personal financial restrictions I would eat all of my meals here. It's that good. Best food and coffee in Emsworth.

My favourite cafe in Emsworth - delicious brunches and cakes! It’s a cosy family run cafe with a surprisingly wide menu of deliciousness! I think I’ve eaten all the cake options (all home made and gorgeous) plus most of the brunch options too. They’ve just been voted the number one cafe in Hampshire by Muddy Stilettos and I can see why.

Passing by today we popped in here for a warming cuppa. The owner Steve was very welcoming...we didn't know he was the owner at the time. It was so, so clean and the decor was fantastic.
A really lovely place and the staff were very friendly. We had a coffee and a cup of tea and both were served with little biscuits on the side.
I also noticed they had an amazing array of homemade cakes on the counter, and a full and varied menu. They also offer a high tea which I read on a leaflet when I was sat at the table.
I would definitely recommend this venue and will return again next time we are in the area.

Me and my wife both had the Bombay Royal which was amazing, all the ingredients combined together to create a masterpiece 👌🏻. The biscoff cake which we got to takeaway was delicious too!
