Really attentive service and good enough food!
We had a Sunday lunch where the meat option was enjoyable but the vegetarian option wasn't as advertised and was literally inedible. Grated, under-cooked celeriac underneath unseasoned sweet potato topped with burnt hazelnuts. I had to ask the server to bring the gravy, which was responded to without much sense of customer service, no check back to convey how bad the food was and on clearing I showed the manager the uneaten, inedible dish and was told he would tell the chef... To pay £16 for 2 roast potatoes, a burnt carrot and less than a tablespoon of cabbage and therefore leave hungry is not acceptable. I really can't recommend to eat here unfortunately.
We were led to a back barn style room to dine that was very cold as they insisted on keeping the huge door open for ventilation purposes for Covid. Two of us had to wear coats all evening. This is not a realistic option to keep air circulating in a restaurant and the diners freezing as a consequence. Main courses were ok but not amazing, I’ve had better. Desserts were disappointing - raspberry sauce poured over every dessert - we had 3 different desserts all with the same sauce on. Really not worth the £7.50 for a brownie, ice cream & cheap tasting raspberry sauce. Sorry, but true. None of the staff wore face masks which I found surprising, as they have at other restaurants & pubs I’ve been to recently. There were sanitiser stations on entrance to the pub and the dining room. Don’t think we will be returning as really didn’t feel special - disappointing as reviews were good & a friend recommended it.
Delicious food, great friendly service, relaxed atmosphere. I’ll be back!
Had a lovely lunch with my girlfriends , very attentive waitress and the barman was very knowledgeable on the wine list .. Ate in the courtyard on a beautiful sunny Thursday afternoon Lizzie
Really welcoming and friendly service, staff made you feel they had time for you. Food was really tasty, although was hoping the chips would be handmade rather than oven style chips, lovely beer. Atmosphere was nice but could be slightly cosier. I would definitely return in any case, even just for the prawn cocktail, yum.
Fantastic family lunch. All the dishes were tasty and service, facilities smart and comfortable. Thanks to the friendly staff.
Excellent lunch - roast was amazing! Jolly staff. Able to sit outside.
Unfortunately I had higher hopes for this place than it delivered. The service was ok, while the staff were efficient enough they didn’t seem hugely welcoming or engaging. The food and drink was ok. It lacked seasoning and wasn’t really plated with any care. The outdoor area was a nice place to sit.
Our fourth visit in the past few weeks. Gone through most of the menu; all good value food well cooked. Had the beef burger this time; can’t rave about a burger but the two patties were really tasty with a nice pink centre. So nice not to get a tasteless overcooked burger. Wife had the fish and chips which was up to the pub’s usual high standard. Good jam roly poly for pud. Very enjoyable meal. Only people in the restaurant when we arrived so lack of atmosphere.
A very enjoyable experience. Warm and friendly service, excellent food and wine. We will be back soon.
Thanks again to Richard and his staff absolutely superb. Would be nice to have the calamari back on the
Lovely pub, great service and good food.
It was our first time to have food at the Crown and we were surprised how lovely the staff is there. Food was excellent and i would definitely go back there.Thank you so much for looking after us so well.
Lovely food in gorgeous surroundings with great service!
Enjoyed an amazing Sunday roast here Great food - lovely friendly attentive staff Will def b back Would def recommend
Love it and looking forward to coming back with friends!
Excellent service and food. We loved it very much. Great interior design and garden too. Highly recommended.
We absolutely loved our first experience of The Crown, it certainly won’t be our last. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. Great food, great atmospheric music, great service.
Lovely good, service a little slow.
Our lunch on the 'Eat Out to Help Out' scheme consisted of excellent food and value for money. The only negative was that when we opted to sit outside, we were shown to a table practically on top of the next one - not socially distanced at all! We opted to eat inside instead and were shown to a table in the corner of a room by ourselves - very well socially distanced and away from the main seating area, but then lacking in atmosphere! Oh well, you can't have everything.
Sat in a table for 2 just inside the door to the dining room. Asked if there was another table but one not available. It is quite draughty by the door and must ask to avoid this table when we book again.
Great food but disappointed with the service
This was our second visit since lockdown eased. The food was amazing and we were lucky to sit on the garden. Staff are very attentive and there is a huge choice of gin.
Five stars across the board given the difficulties you are having providing appropriate social distance eating arrangements. Dog friendly too, which is much appreciated. Staff really friendly. We all enjoyed our evening.
