He said it was not economically viable and applied to convert the building into a five-bedroom home that could have been worth more than £10 million. To find such a pillar of delicious conventionality, where to look?
In April 2017, the pub's freehold, plus the DM Group itself along with their interests in the Brown Cow and Sands End food-led pubs in nearby Fulham were reported to have been acquired by Cirrus Inns. Not fancying either of those options decided to leave to be met by chef asking if we had enjoyed our meal! However on popular days e.

Before its annus horribilis in 2012, when it was closed, threatened with redevelopment into a luxury residence and then occupied by squatters as a protest, The Cross Keys was a creaky old-school boozer complete with flagstone floors, Chesterfield sofas and a conservatory dining room at the back. The wine list is French- and Italian-leaning, with just shy of 25 options by the glass. The bar has very smart nibbles: a scotch egg costs £6. It was rightly packed on a ho-hum weeknight. More Less Renowned for our celebrated history and famous patrons, here at The Cross Keys we offer a warm and laid-back place to drink and dine for you and your four-legged friend Nibble on some homemade bar snacks such as Scotch eggs, made with British free-range pork, whilst enjoying some carefully selected real cask ales. Enjoy our selection of freshly shucked oysters from around the UK with a classic cocktail or tuck in to something more substantial from seasonal dishes to pub classics and Sunday roasts served with a bottle from our fine wine list.

However on popular days e. Food is nice though, with tasty meat and fish dishes, classy pub fare. Having frequented The Brown Cow on The Fulham Road, I was intrigued to explore what their sister pub The Cross Keys has to offer, with a Michelin trained Chef and a Chelsea location things are looking good. The decor and ambience does not disappoint, emblematic of the groups solid style, a gastro pub with a cosy feel. Expect natural materials, tactile woods, antiqued characterful mirror, 'Oh' and a little taxidermy on the side for good measure, well it is 2016 after all. The wine list is seriously good, hitting the jackpot with the Familia Cecchin Organic Malbec at a very civilised £29. The lobster Tacos' to start were unfortunately not hitting any marks, a severe lacking of lobster at all. If I had been blind tasting, I would have bet my granny I was eating a vegetarian avocado starter. There were no specials on offer, leaving a rather large pork and lamb sized hole in the menu, the veal schnitzel had a beautiful crust but lacked in the seasoning department, accompanied by a hard grelot onion at £19. Thank goodness for small delights in the coming of a petite yet delicious Raspberry and mascarpone cheesecake. Just leaves the third member of the DM Group The Sands End to explore. A fantastic pub with tons of personality and a welcoming atmosphere. We went on a cold winter night when the fire was roaring and the place was fairly quiet. The staff were friendly and knowledgable about the beers and wines. The scotch eggs are exquisite and should absolutely be sampled! Pop to the Painted Heron round the corner for a great curry and end the evening with a river stroll. This is a fab little relaxed pub for a lovely afternoon and cool, casual Chelsea vibe. I went to watch the Grand National on Saturday and really enjoyed it. The staff were super friendly and when we ordered food we found out they try to write down what each person is wearing so you get the right meal without even asking! The food is traditional pub food and I cannot recommend the large scotch egg £5. I had a fish goujon burger or as the guy who served me called it 'fish sandwich lols' and it was heaven with great chips! From memory about £14 I think. Good beers on tap too although I'm a wine drinker and there's a hare with a gun at the bar. A pub with personality, enjoy!
The service was quick and very friendly - my request to the waiter to take a group photo of our two tables was met with aplomb and a superb photograph ensued as the waiter decided to stand on a nearby chair to get the best angle - sublime service in my book. We had 4 Trouts and 1 Beef and then Cheese and 4x Crumbles and it was all fab. The barkeep allowed us to taste the beer offerings before we decided on our pints. Sat at table and ordered from very scant menu to be told no roasts, no burgers, only vegi risotto or turbot. A wonderful light and airy pub-restaurant in Chelsea.

Even when we once a week bring the children in from school for half cross keys chelsea hour while they wait for their Holy Communion class around the corner, the staff are welcoming and the Lemonade and bar snacks flow for half an hour.
