I love the Crossing! I must ho more often. Interesting Italian slanted menu, super new pizza oven, amazing desserts, superb and varied wine list. Great fun &amp; friendly staff (lovely locals too and we&rsquo;re not, but feel at home). Stylish decor, fantastic garden. It&rsquo;s my favourite SW London pub now. Keep it up, and the offers, and the Quiz Nights (only went once but such a great crowd!).

I love the sourdough base here; it&#39;s crisp on the edges and has a great texture. The service was exceptional, making me feel very welcome during my visit.

We all enjoyed the meal very very much. Food were really good and the service was great too. We will be back again for sure!

Let me be clear. I am a Yank who has spent years on the road as a travelling account manager. I have eaten at hundreds of American diners across the US. I was hoping for that experience here but got no such luck. Now, don&#39;t get me wrong. This place is nice enough and the food and service are decent. But this is not an American diner, even though it is owned by US raised owners. I suspect the owners skewed the offerings towards British taste. Good enough, but no American bullseye here.

An example, if you care. I ordered a cherry Coke. Coca-Cola manufactures cherry Coke these days (at least in the US). What I got was a bottle of Coke with an ice-filled glass with a splash of cherry syrup. Quaint if you want a 1950&#39;s style US soda stand experience. But this is the 21st century. Come on man!

Excellent service, delicious food, what a great find. Staff were really helpful and knew the menu. Really can&rsquo;t find fault, would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely meal and the staff were attentive and the food was excellent.  Initially slightly perturbed to find we had unwittingly booked on a quiz night but staff were considerate in offering a different table away from quiz but in the event we joined in and our birthday celebration meal was actually enhanced by the quiz experiences!This is our third visit to the Crossing and will definitely revisit soon.  Manager and staff were very welcoming and a good atmosphere all round.  Thank you.
