What Sharon H likes about The Crown:
Been here twice in 3 weeks. Lots of quiet corners if you want privacy. Lovely gardens too and food is lovely.Friendly staff. I didn't give 5 stars as its pet friendly and bit fussy about thst, but that's my choice to go or not. View all feedback. What Kate V doesn't like about The Crown:
The food was terrible, nothing seemed to be made from scratch. The beef was tough and lacked flavor, and the potatoes tasted like they had been frozen. The staff was kind and offered wine or dessert as a replacement, but I couldn't accept as I was driving and not a fan of dessert. I used to love coming here for Sunday lunch when I lived nearby, but this experience was extremely disappointing. View all feedback.

Nice looking pub from the outside. Tired inside. Food was poor to average at best. Mushroom starters and onion rings just tasted of grease. Gammon was undercook...

The Crown offers a mixed experience, with some guests praising the lovely garden and food quality, while others complain about poor food and service. The pub has cozy corners and a pleasant atmosphere, but some find the interior decor tired. Staff are friendly, but service can be slow and there are complaints of rudeness. While some enjoy the drinks, others encounter issues with food quality and lack of options on the menu. Overall, it seems that The Crown may be inconsistent in its offerings, with both positive and negative experiences reported by customers.
