We stayed at the hotel next door (check out my review of CQ Hotel if you're looking for a good value hotel) and rather than pay for a breakfast there, we decided to go to The Crosse Keys instead. They serve breakfast daily until 11.30am.It's a large building with lots of space, plenty of tables and a central bar area at the back of the premises. It was very clean & the staff were friendly. The lady who served us was wearing a body worn video (BWV), because like many other places, they'd experienced a number of spikings. So the introduction of BWV is designed to help stop this from happening, so I think this is a good move and Weatherspoons should be applauded for this 👏.We arrived late morning and ordered a porridge, two traditional breakfasts at £4.95 each and one large breakfast at £6.95. Each extra item was 65p. So not bad value at all as all came with a hot drink with free refills. The food arrived promptly, was piping hot and was exactly what we'd ordered. Condiments were available from a central area and the hot drinks dispenser the same.A convenient stop for breakfast. Both Embankment & Bank underground stations are both easily reached inside 5 minutes on foot with the Monument landmark & sky garden also nearby, and the River Thames and the Thames Path about 10 minutes.

The Crosse Keys is a typical Wheterspoon pub where you can find the usual drink and food options but I liked the place and I consider it a good choice if you are looking for a cheap meal or a place to have a drink with some friends!

This Weatherspoon is located in a magnificent building, which previously must have been some kind of city trading house. It has plenty of artefacts to see, grand high ceilings and plenty of space to sit and relax. There’s loads of bar space at the circular bar and a good selection of several real ale beers

A very good pub and a brilliant Weatherspoons. Beautiful building in a fantastic location. Somewhere you can get a half decent pint in the city without it costing a fortune.

Food is relatively cheap.They say you get what you pay for.In this case i think not. I always know what to expect from Wetherspoonsand that is just average quality. After last nights 'meal' i will never eat there again.I'd rather pay a few quid more and enjoy my food.It rarely comes to the table hot.

This is a large and unashamedly Wetherspoons pub, situated quite close to the Bank of England in the heart of London's financial district.In my opinion, it's ideal for meeting with friends and colleagues for a drink and/or a meal after work, as long as you accept that this IS a Wetherspoons and the food will be simple and traditional "pub fare" and not "gastro-pub".Food and drinks prices are competitive and there is plenty of space to enable socially distanced socialising, even though there is currently some internal remodelling taking place.This was my first visit, but I had a good evening, together with friends.

Plenty of seats, one of the only pubs in London that serve Carling and its about £4.20 a pint, very refreshing too. Gets busy in the early evening around 5 till 9. Would recommend a visit.

A fine establishment for the brand. Perfectly decorated for a proper typical wetherspoons.There are some renovations currently bring undertaken so as long as it doesn't ruin the atmosphere then it'll be kept up to date.This had been as part of our 20 spoons I one day.More to come throughout the day

Good to see the Crosse Keys finally open again after being closed for renovation. Looks like there's still work to be completed as there's a lot of scaffolding supporting the ceiling. Looking forward to coming back again to see the place when the work is finally complete.

One of the best interiors I've seen in a Wetherspoon pub and restaurant.Ordering wasn't too bad, order off the app or await table service.Enjoyed a Doom bar and a Shipyard.The food was better than expected, I shared some chips and onion rings.Would definitely go back when the restrictions are lifted 👍 💯
