FOOD & DRINK
Food takes centre stage at The Cricketers, with a menu built around seasonal ingredients and well-executed pub classics.
We work with a selection of trusted suppliers, alongside some local producers where possible, to ensure quality across the menu. Alongside our main dishes, you’ll also find regularly changing specials that reflect the season.
In addition, we offer Pizza Wednesdays and our much-loved Sunday roasts, both of which have become firm favourites with our guests.
SAMPLE MENUS
We proudly use the finest local and seasonal ingredients, ensuring exceptional quality and flavour in every dish.
Please note these menus are samples, and dishes may change based on our chef's selection of the freshest and in-season produce available.
No reservation? No problem. Our team will happily find you a spot.

BAR SNACK MENU
Our pub bar is open for drinks and bar snacks throughout the day until 9pm. If you are feeling peckish, stop by after a dog walk or pop in for a drink while you catch up with friends.
Try our rarebit, padron peppers, or a big portion of triple cooked chips with curry sauce! No reservations are needed for drinks or to tuck into our snack menu.
WINE LIST
Whether you're a wine fanatic or simply curious, you’ll find something you’ll love on our wine list. Sip on everyday favourites, or a drop from a small producer, take a walk on the wild side with an unconventional grape variety, or try a wine with a bit of character and a great vintage.
A glass to match your lunch or a tipple before bed, our bar team can craft the perfect pour to suit your mood and moment.
If you want something special, ask to see our Black Book, where you’ll find our extended wine list. The Black Book is a curated collection of rare finds, exceptional vintages, and personal favourites - each chosen not just for its quality, but also for its story. These are wines with character, provenance, and purpose.
