The Crown Inn - West Dorset

My family and I (2 children and 2 dogs) came here yesterday for a few drinks and lunches. We were stranded by RAC for 11 hours. The staff here was absolutely amazing. So friendly and helpful, a lady even offered to give us an elevator after her shift! Food was nice, so welcoming. We missed the live singer, but it looked like it was a great afternoon ahead. A must visit when you are in the area. X

Lovely place to eat at food really nice,really friendly staff and even had a band playing music nice and relaxing. In fact going there again tonight

We arrived at this pub to a nice welcome and the food was incredible! Very friendly with lots of locals. The fish tank is also amazingly well kept with some great and unusual tropical fish. The food portions were huge and the home made pie and whitebait were delicious. Highly recommended

I was looking for somewhere for a traditional pub lunch. Googled local pubs and decided on The Crown Inn. Read all the reviews before going, there will always be negative ones for any place. Most were very good though. And now I 'll add mine. I found the prices very reasonable, so couldn 't understand the reviews saying it was expensive. The food itself was very good, and like some reviews, quite large portions . I had the beer battered fish and chips myself. Huge piece of fish, more than enough very nice, chips. I had mushy peas with mine, a good size portions of these on the plate, unlike some places that give you a spoonful in a tiny ramekin. These were also very good, friendly bar staff as well. I would recommend this pub. Hence 5* 's.

The service was good seeing there was only 1 member of staff serving. The food was tasty and value for money. The female toilets were very good, clean with sanitary products available. The main bar was a little tired in its furniture and decor but did not affect our good experience .
