THE CROSS KEYS OFFICIAL SUNDAY ROAST TOP 20 PLAYLIST

We listened to the delightful cheer from our customers at our choice of music and came up with what we think is something truly monumental.

We created a playlist, a soundtrack. Not just any soundtrack, but the definitive, mathematically proven, and highly delicious Sunday Roast Top 20 Playlist while you sit back and enjoy a truly monumental gathering over a Cross Keys Sunday Roast.

Whether you are a champion of the crispy spud, a gravy boat captain, or a defender of the humble Brussels sprout, we have curated the ultimate track list for your Sunday afternoon dining experience.

Get your knives and forks ready. Here is the countdown:

20. Meat Again – The Bee Gees (For when you go back for seconds)
19. Total Eclipse of the Tart – Bonnie Tyler (Dedicated entirely to the dessert menu)
18. Don’t Go Breaking My Veg – Elton John & Kiki Dee (Keep those carrots coming)
17. Pour Some Gravy On Me – Def Leppard (In the name of love, smother it)
16. Bohemian Roast-ody – Queen (Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy... or is that a giant Yorkshire pudding?)
15. Sweet Child O’ Wine – Guns N’ Roses (The perfect Sunday afternoon accompaniment)
14. Meat Me Halfway – The Black Eyed Peas (When you’re sharing the last slice of beef)
13. Every Breath You Take, Every Spud You Bake – The Police (We’ll be watching you eye up that last roast potato)
12. Wake Me Up Before You Cocoa – Wham! (For the post-roast food coma)
11. Living on a Plate – Bon Jovi (Whoaaah, we’re halfway there…)
And now, the Top 10…

10. I Want to Know What Lunch Is – Foreigner (I want you to show me)
9. Another One Bites the Crust – Queen (Dedicated to the perfectly crisp crackling)
8. Smells Like Bean Spirit – Nirvana (For the green vegetable contingent)
7. Gravy Train – The O'Jays (Next stop: your plate)
6. Suspicious Minds (About the Last Roastie) – Elvis Presley (We can't go on together with suspicious minds...)
5. Peas Loving – Elvis Presley (A double-dose of The King for the side dishes)
4. Livin’ La Vida Loca-ville – Ricky Martin (Because all our ingredients are locally sourced, of course)
3. Yorkshire Pudding (Everything I Do, I Do It For You) – Bryan Adams (The true hero of the plate)
2. Stairway to Heaven – Led Zeppelin (Which is exactly where you go after the first bite of our beef)
And the Number 1 Sunday Roast Anthem of all time…
1. I Will Always Love Food – Whitney Houston (And IiiiiiiiiieeeeeeI will always love yoooouuuu, Sunday Roast...)

The Cross Keys Teams’ Verdict:

Music is great, but it tastes better when someone else does the washing up. David, Becky and the rest of the Team have the ovens preheated, the gravy simmering, and the pints perfectly poured.

Spaces fill up faster than a food coma sets in. Drop us a message or call the hotel directly to book your table for this Sunday.

Let us know in the comments: What track did we cruelly leave off the playlist?

Note: Not mathematically proven. Just highly passionate opinion.

*IMPORTANT NOTICE*

FULL HOTEL CLOSURE ONE DAY – MONDAY 1ST JUNE 2026

Please note, we are undertaking major electrical renovation works involving all three phase inputs. For that reason, The Cross Keys will be closed all day on Monday 1st June 2026.

There will be no electrical power available, including power to our VOIP phone system so we will not be able to take incoming phone calls.

We hope to gradually open on the Monday evening but cannot guarantee this. Normal service will be guaranteed for Tuesday 2nd June.

What an incredibly moving review to receive and one that reminds us all that hospitality is about far more than simply serving food and drink.

To know that The Cross Keys could offer a little comfort, warmth and kindness during such an emotional family visit means the world to us. We are absolutely delighted that our team helped make lunches with you so memorable (and we’re especially pleased the curried parsnip soup earned a mention!).

But it was this story about the willow dinner plates that truly touched all of us. Sometimes the smallest gestures carry the greatest meaning, and we are so pleased we could help the family member replace a few treasured pieces connected to such precious family memories.

Pubs, Restaurants and Hotels like ours have always been places where conversations are shared, stories are told and communities quietly look after one another and these beautiful words perfectly capture that spirit.

We can only thank you for taking the time to leave such a heartfelt review and for allowing us to play a small part in your family’s journey. We look forward to welcoming you all back to The Cross Keys very soon for more lunches, more chats and, of course, another bowl of soup waiting at the ready.

With sincere thanks,
From all of us at The Cross Keys Hotel, Chatteris

Planning an event? We’ve Got It Covered.

At The Cross Keys Hotel, we pride ourselves on being the definitive choice for organised group dining in Chatteris. This photo from another lunch event today captures the atmosphere perfectly; a bustling, full room with guests enjoying a seamlessly organised gathering.

We understand that feeding a large number of people isn't just about quantity; it's about quality and organisation. Our kitchen is experienced in serving a room of this size with high efficiency, ensuring everyone eats together and nobody is left waiting.

Forget 'mass catering' stereotypes. Our main meals are sumptuously prepared to order, and our desserts are highly acclaimed—often the highlight of the meal! We offer tailored, multi-course menus that deliver great value and a superior dining experience.

If you are looking to book a lunch, dinner, or presentation evening for a social club, sports team, or association, The Cross Keys has the space, the menu, and the expertise.

Booking a large group doesn’t have to be a headache. Send us a message today or pop in with your estimated numbers and preferred dates, and we’ll show you how simple and successful a large-group booking can be.

See you soon.

Today, The Cross Keys in Chatteris is proving that tradition and modern dietary needs can sit very comfortably at the same table. The kitchen this afternoon is open from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm.

Take a look at today's Specials Board, it’s a masterclass in inclusive, hearty pub fare.

Highlight of the Day: The Vegan B.L.T.

For those looking for that classic crunch without the meat, the Vegan B.L.T. is a revelation. Served with a generous portion of chips and a fresh side salad, it’s a steal at £8.95. It’s wonderful to see a local favorite embrace plant-based options with such flair.

Customisable Comfort

If you’re craving something indulgent, the Jacket Wedges are an absolute must. While the standard version comes with bacon, melted cheese, and garlic mayo (£8.95), the kitchen is more than happy to prepare a Vegan version for you.

Pro Tip: Request them with regular mayonnaise (instead of the garlic mayo) to keep your meal perfectly vegan-friendly!

Also on Offer Today:

• Ham, Egg, and Chips: A quintessential British classic for just £6.00.
• Breaded Garlic Mushrooms: Served with chips, salad, and garlic mayo for £7.25.
• The Full Lunch Menu: Our standard array of beloved dishes is also available.

Whether you are stopping by for a pint at the bar, a relaxed meal in the restaurant, or staying the night in the hotel, our doors are wide open and the kitchen is fired up.
