Still a reasonable enough stop for your real ale afficienado (not really a lot of options in downtown Harpenden mind). The selection these days is Landlord, Tring Jack o Legs and Marlow Rebellion. The Rebellion was drinkable enough but not quite as good as it used to be.

Apparently there will be no Harpenden Beer Festival this year as the usual premises were not available to CAMRA. Anyway the Cross Keys has leapt to the rescue and is holding its own at the end of the month. Hope there are more beers than on the flier as it lists only the three regulary available.

Hasn't really "changed hands" - the tenant has installed a management couple.

Changed hands again and doesn't seem as popular now.

Sadly I have to agree with KiamaraKid having also moved on to other local pubs to seek a more customer-focused/friendly/respectful environment. The Cross Keys had its share of ups & downs in the 90's through a succession of licensees but under Mike & Viv it had resumed its rightful place as the "local" of choice - in keeping with its location & heritage. I'm in no hurry to try the place again until I hear news from others that it is safe to return.
