About Brompton Cross

After a long period of closure, this site finally reopened in early June 2022, renamed the Brompton Cross. The pub currently offers two to three cask ales from three handpumps. There is a short "classic pub" menu including a signature Steak Frites dish and Sunday roast lunch. Expect to pay local-area prices for food and drink. TVs may be on showing sport, often muted.

As at date of this entry the venue does not appear to have a working website. And it has been reported that the pub may sometimes close early depending on trade. Further updates welcome.

    Such a beautiful pub! Food and service at the Brompton Cross is outstanding, and the experience overall is even more wonderful thanks to the owner, James Ramsden who really pays attention to every single detail and ensures everyone is looked after and having the best time. Could not recommend enough. 10/10

    Nice little pub with a chilled vibe. I visited the place in the festive season. Nicely decorated (not overdone). Clean tables and stools. I have not tried the food, however, seeing other customers walking in and ordering food, they were very complimentary. The staff are very friendly and greeted every person when they walk in. If you are in the area and look for a nice vibe, I certainly recommend the place.

    Nice, homey atmosphere with excellent drafts and bar foods, served by friendly folks. Try the ales!

    I stopped here for a few pints and a late lunch after visiting the Natural History Museum nearby. I was lucky to have brought my laptop along so I could sit outside for a couple of hours and enjoy some writing. I enjoyed their house lager, the Brompton SW3 Craft Lager. Not a bad drop as far as house lagers go, good enough to have another couple after the first experiment. I ordered the Brompton burger and chips; had the burger medium. It was quite good, juicy, large patty, well proportioned burger. I had it with cheese which helped, could be a part of the recipe rather than a £1.50…

    Nice pub. Limited beer options so we had G&Ts. We sat here awhile and rested. Met up with our other travel companions and discussed their tour around the city.
