The Cross Inn

My partner and I visited here for the weekend back in September, it was lovely! The room was nice and clean and the Thai food is the best I’ve had. We are looking forward to returning as we are now moving to Hebden Bridge, it will be our first stop on moving day!

Good local pub. Only had a drink. Open fire Friendly bar person

We like to come here to eat and drink after a day of foraging. It's nice and cozy, you can actually talk without music drowning out conversation. Staff are nice and friendly.

Beautiful location. Free parking. Extremely friendly staff. Delicious continental and cooked breakfast, including a wide range of healthy options. Rooms are also lovely for the price, but not practical. Could do with a chest of drawers instead of a useless glass cabinet, shelf in the bathroom for your toothbrush, etc, and maybe some hooks on the back of the door to hang your coat? All easy fixes, which would bump it up to five stars.

We had a great stay at the Cross Inn Hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast included was very good with a nice variety. The customer service was excellent—staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The price was reasonable for the quality offered. Overall, a solid choice and good value for money.

A great 'local pub' located in a truly atmospheric hamlet. Staff & customers treat visitors with equally friendly service & chats. Excellent authentic Thai food, sensibly priced & nicely presented. 'Thirsty Thursdays' is a real bonus too, with some draught beers at just £3/pint (£3.50 if paying by card).

Beautiful location, lovely room with gorgeous bathroom, generous hospitality tray and comfortable bed. It was spotlessly clean and the decor made it feel really individual. The food was great, well-cooked and tasty. The friendly and helpful staff couldn't have been better - they went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Would definitely recommend.

I travel a lot and this is one of the best hotels/inns I've been to. It's an old house, and it looks like it, but it is by no means dirty or otherwise uncomfortable in the rooms. The pub downstairs is a nice atmosphere, and one needs to expect the noise, but I didn't mind them. The service is impeccable. I have rarely seen staff that is this friendly, considerate, and caring. I would give 6 stars for them, if I could. The location in the village is a nice one, I just warn everyone to take the bus up, because walking, especially with luggage, will be a task for sure. Overall, this was a great experience, and I see myself returning when I visit Heptonstall again.

Some of the loveliest people I've met in a long long time, the welcome at the Cross Inn was absolutely brilliant. Lynsey and Linda were superb hosts. We stayed in room 5, which was a twin and a nice big room, possibly a little warm for me. My friends stayed in rooms 1, 2, 3 & 4 and said they were really nice rooms. Breakfasts were excellent, and we ate one night in the restaurant too... We were fortunate enough to be in the bar when they did their weekly pub quiz from the local village magazine, to eat some of them locally made spirit infused chocolate. And then Lynsey told us there was a sell out memorial gig at the Golden Lion in Todmorden for a singer who unfortunately died in 2024. We went, it was outstanding, great people, great music, great night... Thoroughly recommend the Cross Inn at Heptonstall - and it's about two minutes walk to Sylvia Plath's grave as well, if that's your thing...

The food was fantastic especially the soups we had for the starter. The chef was lovely and came out and spoke to us to make sure we were enjoying our food, she even put little carrot hearts on the food for Valentines. The man at the bar was nice but didn’t tell us we had to order at the bar which caused some confusion, I think it should just be full table service in the restaurant. The restaurant was a bit cold too as only the fire in the pub was on. But overall a great village pub, great value, lovely vibes and delicious food.
