Had bottomless brunch for my 30th birthday with my family. Eleisha was our server and was amazing. She was so attentive and always made sure we had drinks. She made our experience so much better! Definitely recommend the Keystones 🥰

Did a bottomless brunch on a Friday afternoon. pub was fairly quiet compared to the madness of city centre pubs doing bottomless brunch. Granted it was out of term time as Keystones is popular student place. Food was really good. A very good choice of drinks included in the brunch. Service was spot on .Was never without a drink. Would highly recommend if you want a bottomless brunch and be able to have a conversation.
