Awesome restaurant and bar. The downstairs bar has lots of craft beer options, but the upstairs bar is less busy (they'll have to go downstairs for beers that aren't on tap up there though). Their food is great. Huge portions, very tasty. Cheesesteak Egg Rolls - happy hour bar snack, of course this is good. You can't mess up cheesesteak egg rolls :) Fried Chicken - awesome authentic southern fried chicken with mashed potatoes and collard greens, this was an insane amount of food, I had leftovers for like 2 more meals. "The Cross" Burger - GET THIS. All their burgers are really good. This one is beef & andouille sausage burger topped with gruyere cheese, bacon, fries pickles, fried egg, lettuce, tomatoes, spicy sriracha dijonaise read more

I was visiting the area just for the weekend to reunite with some college friends in celebration of my friend Joe and Josh's recent birthdays- we stumbled across one of the only local brunch spots available to sit 7 of us last minute! We ended up enjoying it so much, the food was fantastic. (The crab Benny was out of this world!!!) The server was adorable, and the atmosphere was so cute! If you come to this location, you need to order the monkey bread for the table, it was SO good!! read more

The food was great. I had the fried chicken sandwich and my table ordered the biscuit board. Everyone enjoyed their food. Our server was amazing his name is Aiden, I would come back just to interact with him. He was very knowledgeable about the food and drinks, great personality and loads of hospitality. read more

The Tot choes as an appetizer were absolutely delicious. Our sandwiches were quite tasty. My daughter got the chicken sandwich and I chose the short rib and grilled cheese sandwich. The side salads that came with our sandwiches are bland. They had no seasoning whatsoever and little dressing. We rounded out our meal with the beignets that had chocolate sauce a little whipped cream and fresh strawberries and blueberries. Unfortunately the beignets were hard as a rock and so greasy that we couldn't chew them. So disappointed. The last time we had beignets there, they were light and crispy. The waitress was new but she was pleasant and did a good job. The initial food runner was short with us and kind of rude. We sat on a high top in the bar area. I was very happy with our appetizer, waitress, and sandwiches, the rest of it was sub par. We will go again because we are hoping it was just one slightly bad experience. read more

I have no idea why this place is rated so high. The food can be decent and can also be terrible. It's a gamble. Don't take it. My review is about my experience today and I have to say- I'm bitter. My husband ordered a short rib benny, he received a crab egg thing. When he asked about it the waitress said he absolutely did not order the short rib. We were at a table with a few people, everyone heard his order of the short rib. Are you kidding me?!? Why would she argue, why is this okay? And then to boot I ordered a kids Mac and cheese, picture attached. This was 10 dollars and was tiny!!!! Kids or not, this is a complete rip off. I will say it was yummy but not worth 10 bucks! I will never return. The food is questionable and it's so overpriced. read more

Southern Cross Kitchen - This was the kids Mac and cheese. A steal at $10. We went home and made more food. What a freaking rip off. - Southern Near Me - Conshohocken, Pennsylvania

We absolutely love this place! Given the restrictions during this pandemic, Southern Cross Kitchen has limited seating in their patio. We made a reservation and so glad we picked this amazing place. Food was excellent and service was impeccable! Will definitely come back and try other dishes as we were utterly impressed. Hope your restaurant make it through this tough time for most businesses. Keep up the great work !!! read more

Average food. Average service. Chicken and waffles 6/10. 6/10 ambiance. Would dine again. Nice place to grab a drink as well

Very satisfied with my brunch experience here and will come back to try more items on their menu! I made reservations for a party of 7 for a Saturday morning. We ordered a mimosa tower ($40) for the table and I ordered the Crabs Benedict and it was delicious! I always like having a side of potatoes (a bit small) and bacon so I added those and got a lot of pieces of bacon for just $4. Everyone enjoyed their meals and was overall happy. Our server was super friendly and made sure to check on us continuously. read more

So much for southern hospitality. Worst service I've ever received in a dining establishment in the Philly area. Experience was barely salvaged by mediocre food. Awful job at accommodating my dear friends birthday, called in 15 minutes ahead of time and spoke to an individual who seemed like they could care less then reminded the hostess when I arrived. Ultimately didn't get any candles and no birthday celebration. Not authentic southern charm, trust me. read more

The first time we tried coming here the hostess rudely said we needed a reservation. We came back a few months later with a group of friends. My mom told me the scallops were really good here, but expensive and you only get 4. I said that's about right, you usually only get like 4 or 5 at a high quality place. I ordered the Scallop and pork belly dinner, and my husband ordered the fried chicken. We were both disappointed in our meals. I only got TWO scallops with my dinner, and it was $24! I didn't realize there was going to be more pork belly than scallops, a huge ripoff. I thought it was going to be scallops with some pork belly, not pork belly with some scallops. I guess the dinner my mom got was a different menu item that was previously offered. The scallops were good but no scallops are worth $12 a piece. My husband said his chicken was dry, bland and disappointing also. I heard the burgers are good but I don't know if we will be back to try them or not. read more

This place used to be a real favorite of mine, but I guess I am not comfortable spending $76 on a lunch for 2 people any more. That was 2 entrees, 1 beer, and tip. I liked the shrimp and grits, even though it is not worth $24. My friend ordered a crab cake sandwich, but the waiter brought the entree instead. Yes, they both tasted good, but 2 small crab cakes with less than a cup of arugula and some diced unripe mango was not worth the money. If I go back I would probably make a meal from an appetizer or side dish. That way my bill would be less. read more

Nice Brunch today. Had the pulled port sliders with slaw, very tasty. Shared a fried chicken breast sandwich with my wife, very large portion that she could not finish, the chicken was excellent, crisp on the outside and moist inside. The bread that the sandwich was made of was also excellent. The fried pickles are also a must. Very friendly service. read more

Food is good but portions are incredibly small and the pricing is absurd. 16$ for a bland chicken sandwich? Popeyes here I come

So this place only gets 3 stars. The place isn't that big and they have lots of high top tables for two. Very uncomfortable when you have to sit for a long time due to slow service. We started with green fried tomatoes with goat cheese. Unfortunately there was so much cheese, you could not really taste the tomato or barely see it. The BLT with avocado was good but the fries were just warm and finally cold by the time I was half way thru the sandwich. Nice looking place inside, needs work either in the kitchen or the servers or probably both. read more

Great dinner menu and an even better brunch menu. My girlfriend is obsessed with their fried chicken sandwich and tatter tots. I steal most of her tater tots. Cozy setting and fantastic date spot upstairs. Outdoor balcony seating is nice in the spring/summer. The staff is always smiling and helpful. read more

I didn't like my food, but that is most likely because I didn't try the cross burger. Everyone told me to try that burger, I was stubborn. I didn't want a burger at a place with Southern and Kitchen in the name. I wanted fried chicken. My wife got crabcakes. We both regretted it and haven't been back since. I used to come here just for the bar and they had awesome whiskey drinks. Even some infusions of their own creation. One day a group of us went there for some party. Maybe eight of us. We got a reservation, because the first time I tried to eat there, we were told we couldn't get a table that night for two people. We tried during the week with eight people and the service was slow. My fried chicken was so bland. My wife hated her crab cakes and thought they tasted spoiled. Five of us didn't enjoy our meal, but those three burger friends did. I think I would go back to try the burger, but we're not in a rush. Maybe it's not southern food, but it just that this place is south in terms of Conshohocken? read more

This food was AAAAAMMMMAAAAZZZZZIIINNNGGG! I havent had a meal this good in a while, the grits were perfect! the chicken was good and crispy. Everything was made to perfection! I seriously wanted to thank the chef! I WILL BE RETURNING FOR SURE! read more

After a trip to IKEA, looked for something local to try. We had chosen another restaurant, but after parking decided to give this place a chance. We love southern food. We came in around 1pm expecting to have lunch. They were still serving their brunch menu, so different options than we had expected. Ordered the poached eggs over biscuit, with asparagus side; chicken and waffles; and grilled cheese and fries for my son. The egg dish was tasty. I was really disappointed with the chicken and waffles, and I've had good c&w all over the country. The chicken was a flattened chicken breast, over a soggy waffle. We sat on back deck, which was relaxing and chill, so enjoyed the ambiance. read more

a solid spot, however, the people seated 5 minutes after us received their drinks way before we even ordered ours. I'm used to getting crap service. Anyhow, wife has finished her meal & im still waiting for mine. read more

Oh, how I want to love you. Great concept for a restaurant as I lived in Georgia for 10 years and married a Georgia a girl who agreed to move back here to Philly several years back. Had Father's Day brunch here today with my wife, kids/spouses, grandkids. Loved the menu. Great service (despite obvious confusion from kitchen). Positive vibes ended there when tasting the food. If u are going to call yourself a "southern" restaurant, u need to master certain southern staples. Biscuits (way too dense and sweet), gravy (not even close to sausage gravy, again way too sweet), sweet tea (tasted like Pure Leaf right out of bottle, not Southern sweet tea). Chicken and Waffles: chicken (good), waffles (I've never tasted a blander waffle), gravy (ruined everything it touched, see above). This dish is a southern/soul food staple. Missed it by a country mile (pun intended). Being a "Southern" restaurant requires more than slick marketing. I recommend the owners/chefs make a road trip to Georgia and taste what Southern food is all about (or change the concept/name and don't waste the beautiful spot in Conshy). read more

I will never go here again they charged me 8$ for what would be best called easy mac. I had asked if it was baked and i was told it was baked when it showed up i was able to pour out the swill of cheese sauce. My friend got the calamari it was bland and lacking any flavor. We ordered the corn bread and biscuit and well just dont the only saving grace for them was the fact that honey butter was good and well thats it. The biscuit was a flat chewy object not good. Don't worry we were assured the butter was home made on site... My friend and I were told after we ordered the promo coupons they were handing out were one per table and it was no place on the coupon. We were sat in the top floor next to a loud sweet 16 birthday party and at a few points the music was turned up so loud we couldn't hear each other. We agreed with the table next to ours that it would be easier to text that to try to talk over the noise. We both left unhappy with the food and service. The server took 20 mins to not only get our check and to bring back the card... We went to El Limon and I would recommend doing that. I would skip this mock southern food eatery. As someone who grew up in the south this was not southern food at best its a nice Mainline KFC. We couldn't leave Southern Cross fast enough to never return... read more

As a resident of the area, I've seen many different businesses (including a bar and small lottery/convenience store) in this particular space. Last night after a committee meeting nearby, my friend and I were craving some food and decided to see if Southern Cross lived up to the hype. The décor is very home-styled, definitely to give the illusion you're in someone's home. The lighting was dimmed shortly after we were seated (around 9ish), so it was very soft and just accented by the blue mason jars with tea lights on each table. For a Monday night, it seemed busy as pretty much every table was full. The menu was varied, offering something for pretty much everyone (salads, burgers, etc), but all of them definitely had the air of comfort food with a twist.I had the pulled pork quesadilla while my friend had the calamari. Both were pretty good, although the corn bread I ordered on the side was a bit dry for my taste. Our server also told us about all the desserts as well; apparently they are all made in house. None of them struck our fancy though. I'd probably stop by again. read more

Had lunch on New Years Eve. There was only one other table occupied by a young couple and their baby. Dining room was a little cramped, rustic decor. I went for the fried green tomato BLT with avocado. I was pretty tasty, but the ciabatta roll it was served on was a little too much bread. I definitely would have preferred toast. My partner had the grilled cheese with short ribs, that was much better. Both were served with tasty fries. We were on soft drinks, but the bar menu had a nice selection of craft brews and some creative cocktails. The server was super funny and friendly. the vibe and food was similar to their other restaurant, the Gypsy. They just miss the bulls eye for me. read more

Service was an all time bad. Started from the beginning. We had a reservation and took them 15 minutes to "clean the table". Our waiter came over once during the meal. The pimento grilled cheese was a joke. There was maybe 2 slices of cheese and the smallest amount possible of pimento. It was pretty much eating toast. The chicken sandwich was decent. Think they need to work out a few things post COVID read more

This is one of my favorite spots in Conshohocken for happy hour and dinner. They have great specials on drinks and usually have their own sangria or punch of the season. Food- I have never left disappointed. Southern comfort food with plenty of traditional options on the menu as well. The shrimp and grits, fried chicken and crab cakes are all good choices. Their appetizers are great guilty pleasures. Try the fried pickles or short rib nachos! Service - always have great service for dinner and at the bar. Recently our server Joe, was very attentive and got back to us quickly with questions on the menu. Price - I would say SCK is about average for having a nice sit down dinner that isn't pretentious. Worth the money! Parking - street parking is available . There is a parking lot across the street that is really hard to get in and out of. Try crossing Fayette to the west side of the street and there is another lot. read more

My boyfriend stopped in Sothern Cross for brunch today. We decided to sit at the downstairs bar, as it was pretty empty and super inviting. I just want to say the service was AMAZING. Our bartender (20 something blonde woman with glasses, wish I remembered her name) was so friendly, knowledgeable, and helped greatly with recommendations! Now to the food, I got the Crabby Benny. One of the best I have had....and I order them almost everywhere. The fried green tomato was my favorite part. The asparagus that paired with it was perfectly done. My boyfriend got the chicken fried chicken, which he adored. And I forgot To mention the bottomless mimosas. Just the topping on the cake. We will absolutely be back. read more

My wife and I went to Southern Cross Kitchen to celebrate our anniversary. Southern Cross has been open for a few years just off Fayette Street and is owned by the same folks who brought Stella Blu and Gypsy Saloon to Conshy. We had made reservations on Open Table and were immediately shown to our table on the second floor when we arrived. It appears the second floor could be reserved for a private large part and has its own bar as well. The meal did not start off well as I was shocked to learn that a restaurant with Southern in its name and with a mural extolling the virtues of the South (including "the tea is sweet" in the mural) would not include Sweet Tea on its menu. However, we persevered and your rewarded with delicious entrees. My wife order the short ribs, which had that wonderful veal/red wine flavor that attacks your mouth and was accompanied by surprisingly spicy Tasso Ham, brussel sprouts, and grits that probably would not pass muster in Georgia, but were acceptable in Pennsylvania. I opted for the Seafood Jambalaya which was chock full of scallops and shrimp, but had less andouille sausage than I am accustomed. Most restaurants are afraid to make jambalaya as spicy as it should be, but not at the Southern Cross. This dish had a noticeable, but not overpowering edge. Service was acceptable, but certainly not what I would call exceptional. Very tight parking is available in the deck across the street, but if you have anything bigger than a Hyundai then you may be better off searching for street parking. read more

Southern Cross is in a great location on Elm Street in Conshohocken because it is easy to access on foot or by car. There is street parking right in front of the restaurant or at a lot that is right across from the restaurant (both are metered). While the menu revolves around Southern cooking, there are other options available for if you are not in the mood for Southern cuisine. When I visited this past weekend, we started with the cheesesteak eggrolls and then ended up having the chicken pot pie (a fan favorite) and the short rib grilled cheese. I would definitely recommend both options especially on a cold night if you are looking for something to warm you up! This is a great place to come with friends and hang by the bar, to host a party (and rent out the upstairs room), or for a low key dinner. read more

After eating a lot of them, I can confidently say Southern Cross has the best fried chicken sandwich in Conshohocken. Worth mentioning in terms of night life, the upstairs and downstairs bars have 2 distinct feels and are both some of my favorite spots. Truly miss the live music upstairs and cocktail longe downstairs. read more

My significant other and I were heading back home after a weekend in Philly. We were hankering for some real serious brunch food. As we stumbled across Southern Cross Kitchen we immediately realized we hit the jackpot entering the interior environment. The menu had such a variety of tasty comfort foods that we just had to split their vegetable goat cheese omelette and some chicken & waffles. The service was also fantastic. The gentleman that took care of us was stellar! I'd drive an hour just to have their food again. read more

The Cross burger was rated number one burger on Mainline's review in 2015. While the burger was good, it wasn't even close to the best. The burger was cooked to the proper temperature as order. However, its plethora of ingredients melded into a soggy mess. The bacon was soft, the fried pickles lacked crisp. The burger blend was good, but didn't blow me away. The brioche bun was quite good. Soft and buttery. Fries were standard fare. Crispy and seasoned thin slices. Likely frozen. read more

First experience here for Father's Day - huge disappointment. I'll start with the service, our waitress clearly had too many tables, felt like we had to make sure we presented her with a list of stuff we needed while she was around or end up needing things for 15-20 before we'd even see her again. We never saw a water refill nor were we asked if we were good on drinks. We waited almost 40 minutes for food to arrive and guess what took the longest? PANCACKES. That's right, 5 minute pancakes came out last almost 50 minutes after we'd placed our order. Now the food itself. When you put southern in the name of your restaurant the expectation is that your food will be flavorful, well-seasoned, and the menu will be well-rounded. Their menu was okay, but the food was unseasoned which was shocking. Unsalted potatoes, salty pancakes and the oddest kid's chicken fingers I'd ever seen sans any seasoning whatsoever. The food was bland and boring. Lastly we found ourselves annoyed to overhear a waitress reitering how slow the kitchen was moving and people's annoyance with that fact to an owner who simply replied "well its fathers day, people have to be patient". Their slowness cost them 40% on our check...wouldn't it be cheaper to make sure your kitchen staff can cook AND season food properly than to hope people will understand that the day is a sorta holiday? Where's Gordon Ramsay when you need him? I'd recommend passing on this place. read more
