Crown Bar & Bistro in Lancaster

Five of us booked in for a double celebration and were not disappointed as a very special occasion unfolded. The atmosphere, standard of service and quality of the food were top-notch....full marks to Roy and his staff! The Crown has built up a deserved reputation for excellence and, importantly, consistency. Christmas lights twinkling merrily along Morecambe seafront provided an attractive backdrop as we made our course selections from a. wide-ranging and tempting menu. We all agreed that our respective choices were first class, helped down by a couple of bottles of an extremely drinkable red! All in all a great night and wonderful company.

Absolutely superb, staff excellent food out of this world and at a reasonable price. Highly recommend 👌

If I could rate the crown out of 100 I would give 100. Excellent food, Brilliant Staff I personally will be returning here

Room was very good and clean, had Netflix too for late night entertainment. Great location right by the sea front and fairly priced.

Meals are good quality and efficiently served, great vibe in the restaurant and generous portion sizes also fairly reasonably priced aswell, fully recommend here

Reasonably priced, fine dining, meals plentiful and well presented, staff are all friendly and serve efficiently, would fully recommend here for a meal

The landlady of the guest house we were staying in recommended this place - we were so glad she did as we would probably not have found it otherwise. It is only small, but the food is amazing, and even on a Tuesday evening in October the place was quite busy. I had Macaroni cheese [best I've ever tasted1] and my husband had chicken, ham and mushroom pie which he loved. Generous portions, and 2 meals for £25 mid-week, too. If we're ever back in Morecambe we will definitely come here again.

Made a reservation two weeks ago and requested for three and not high table (we have disability). Phoned next day phoned to increase to four people. and we told no issues. Guess what, table only set for three and it was a high table with limited access. What is the point. Really spoilt our experience.

Ŵe had a lovely stay. Room was very spacious and all very clean. Nicely decorated hotel. Food and staff outstanding. We will be back. Thank you

Very honest hotel, helpful staff. Excellent sleep. Breakfast very nice.

Wonderful Sunday lunch and great service , Thankyou !

Had lovely meal here. Very friendly staff. Good prices. Well worth a visit.

Came here on Friday lady was great to let us drop off our bags as it was too early to check in ....We came back later to go to our room which was very nicely laid out with big shower room and double bed...But tbh I thought the full breakfast was included in the room price which it wasn't & then had to pay for the cereals and tea which myself and the kids only had before checking out at 10am...The bed wasn't that comfortable for me and my daughter but the boys said they slept well.... The location is great if you do want to be near to all the action and a fantastic view of the Eric Morecambe statue and sunsets...

Good, honest home cooked food. Speedy service and big portions too.

Not dog friendly despite being listed as such on goole maps

Pleasant place next to seashore. Lovely staff and tasty food

This is an absolute gem of a place and highly recommend it Stayed in Room 1 staff incredibly friendly but most of all the food freshly cooked every day was stunning will definitely be back thank you so much Oh and right beside Eric morecambes statue

Very nice, warm and comfortable environment. Friendly and welcoming staff. I had a very light Fish and Chips, my wife a savory pie with vegetables, both cooked very well. Homemade desserts. Average prices. I recommend it

Lovely hotel meal and service.

Called in for lunch and ordered from the £9 menu, I ordered the burger and my sister ordered the Cajun chicken. When it arrived her chicken was just a processed burger (not the fillet as stated on the menu) and my burger didn’t taste of beef, it was a strange taste that I couldn’t fathom! The fries were good though.

I recently dined at The Crown Restaurant in Morecambe, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, with a charming blend of modern elegance and cozy comfort. The highlight, however, is undoubtedly the culinary expertise of Chef Roy. Each dish was a masterpiece, showcasing not only the finest ingredients but also Roy's remarkable skill and creativity. The flavours were perfectly balanced, and the presentation was nothing short of artful. The homemade pie dishes, in particular, were outstanding, a true pub icon. The staff were attentive and friendly, ensuring that every need was met with a smile. The service was impeccable, and the overall atmosphere made for a truly memorable dining experience. I highly recommend The Crown Restaurant for anyone looking to enjoy a top-notch meal in Morecambe. Roy's talent is evident in every bite, making it a must-visit destination for foodies.

We had a lovely 2 night stay here. We had a Deluxe sea view room which was absolutely lovely, very very roomy and perfectly clean. A lovely touch with the telescope and books to help you spot the different stars and constellations. The staff were fantastic, so friendly and even putting oat milk in my room without being asked when realising that that was how I had my tea. We had 2 lovely breakfasts in the restaurant, mine being the vegan option without beans and my partner having the traditional and the large breakfast, we both throughly enjoyed them and the bread for toast was lovely and thick and really tasty. We had a really lovely stay and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the area.

Service was quick, food was delicious and rooms were in pristine condition.

Called in 2 bar very clean light toilet clean only down side down stairs 3 loverly ladies behind bar very freindly busy on food like 10 tables fish ff looked good

Fantastic meals and plenty of choice. Definitely a must visit place.

Went for a Sunday lunch and was really impressed. I had the lamb and my wife had the beef and both meats were tender and cooked perfectly. The potatoes and sides were nice with plenty of tasty gravy. The Yorkshire pudding was great too. All homemade to a high standard. Normally it can be hit or miss when you go out for a Sunday dinner but the Crown is a definite hit. They also serve a range of starters and other mains and I could only hear positive comments from other people. The service was attentive and friendly with a relaxed atmosphere and the prices are really reasonable. I highly recommend the Crown and we will definitely be back for another visit.

Excellent food, as always. Friendly staff. Thank you

Went for lunch and loved it. Such wonderful staff and value for money. Just a terrific meal. The boys loved the black pudding eith mustard sauce and mash plus bacon followed by roast beef and then crumble. My less gluttony soup ( home made and delicious ) and roast turkey was fantastic. The alcohol free pink gin was a treat. Can't wait to go back

Really impressed with the meal, delicious and really good value for money. Service was excellent- atmosphere was great and thoroughly enjoyed the evening- will book again soon- thank you!

Absolutely brilliant, called and booked in the afternoon. Sat at 5pm ordered food and drinks table service, staff friendly Served with a smile and conversation. Food perfect lamb, cheese & red onion pie hunter chicken, and steak and pepper pie. Perfectly cooked and very tasty. Thank you. Will definately return xx

Would recommend The Crown for the eating side, as a local, no need to stay, lovely staff.

BF took me last night for Valentines. Had drinks. Really nice place, friendly staff and classy. Seating, furniture, bar and lighting is all lush. Loved it:)

Another lovely meal here tonight for our wedding anniversary. The food is cooked fresh and is delicious plus the value is great , £19 for a good piece of rib eye with real chips you’ll pay much more than that in a “chain” pub. The staff are great too The Crown is one of the best places to eat in Morecambe.

For somewhere so expensive and ‘posh’ I think it’s overpriced and actually serving you cheap stuff. Heinz sauce bottles refilled with cheap off brand sauce. For the price you pay you’d think you’d at-least get proper condiments. Imagine if someone had an allergy? Double choc cookie dough pie was literally choc chip cake. Taste like what we make for kids at home. Wouldn’t come again 😂

We visited The Crown at 6.15pm on the last Friday in October. We were invited in, seated at one of several empty tables (the venue was perhaps 60-70 per cent full), given menus and left for ten minutes to choose our dishes. Then we were approached by a staff member and told we had to leave because this table was booked from 7pm. Coincidentally, the handful of other empty four-seater tables were also all booked for the same time. Had we been asked to simply order a main course and leave by 7pm, we'd have been happy to comply. Had we been offered a takeaway instead, we'd have taken it. Had the staff at The Crown made any effort to accommodate us, we'd have been genuinely grateful. Instead, we were welcomed in and then shooed out of the premises with some desultory apologies, while everyone else stared at us. Don't even attempt a walk-in at this venue.

Good value for the price I paid. Clean and warm. The housekeeping staff were pleasant and the room was serviced daily. I agree with what other reviewers have said regarding the lack of privacy at the window and the need to keep the curtains closed. The wi-fi was spot on. Meals are not provided every day and then only at set times, I didn't eat there so can't comment on the food. The location is fairly good, right on the promenade and within easy walking distance of the transport hubs. I wouldn't recommend this property to anyone accessing the Eden North site. It would be helpful to take a long extension cable and the hairdryer could then be used in front of the mirror. There appears to be some sort of fault on the heating system which bangs loudly under the floor when it switches on (room 8). The owner didn't know about this.

Lunch out. First visit to The Crown. The £9.00 Menu is good value and quite varied. The setting if you are sat at the window, it has nice views over the beach and the bay. The dining area is quite small and therefore quite noisy, its difficult to have a conversation with fellow diners . Staff are attentive and obliging. The toilets are in the basement and not the easiest to get too, especially if you have any mobility issues.

Thank you for a lovely meal and a warm welcome after a long journey. Delicious food and a reasonable price.

This was our first visit to this bistro and was delighted both with the excellent food and brilliant service from all the staff. The bistro was spotlessly clean and the staff very attentive and would definitely recommend to friends and family for a wonderful dining experience. We will certainly be making a return visit. June from Bolton

Awful customer service! Turned up with a small dog understanding that we would have to sit outside. There were empty tables outside so this wasnt a problem. I walked into the restaurant bar area to see a table of 8/10 persons finishing their lunch and 3 other tables of 2 and 4 persons in a similar stage of eating. There were a number of empty tables. Two female bar staff were both stood chatting behind the bar (not busy). I asked if we could order food and that we had a small dog. I was told that it would have to be outside (obviously). She then went into the kitchen to ask the chef if he would cook for 2 persons. On her return her answer was "sorry we cant serve you food" Being 1330hrs and having empty tables in the restaurant I can only assume the chef could not cope with the work load. Manage your staff or loose customers!

Arrived hoping for a meal but they were fully booked which is fair enough on sunny Sunday lunchtime. Asked if we could purchase 2 drinks to take outside to one of the two free tables. The first waitress said yes that would be ok and directed me to order at the bar. When I arrived at the bar, the woman told me that they were too busy to serve me and said she couldn’t provide drinks. Never known any pub turn away paying customers at the bar when all they had to do was pour the drinks, take payment and collect/wash the used glasses after we’d finished. We won’t be back.

We stayed at the Crown for two nights and we couldn't recommend it more. The staff are the friendliest people that you could wish to meet and the food is excellent value for money. The room that we had was fantastic with the best sea views that you could wish for. We will definitely stay here again when we are next in that area. Thank you to all the staff

We were visiting the town and went here for lunch. On the sea front, super choice of food and terrific value for money. What more can you ask for? The staff were pleasant and helpful. Booking is necessary

We had tried to get in before on spec but the Crown was fully booked. We booked for today and now know why. The £9 lunch menu is copious in its choice and in the helpings. The staff were very friendly, attentive and helpful. Given the weather it was a bonus to have the air con. We will definitely be back.

This is Morecambe’s busiest restaurant! All the food is home made and consistently excellent! You do need to book, closed on Mondays !

A planned day trip to Morecambe with friends on 21st May dictated that I find somewhere central for Sunday lunch. Reading impressive reviews of The Crown, I booked a table without hesitation. We were not disappointed after ordering the Roast Beef with all the trimmings. We all commented on the quality of the meal and the generous portions. Good value and served by friendly, efficient staff too. We look forward to returning on a future visit.

A fantastic hotel and room 3 is great with a nice sea view. The food was excellent, a lovely evening meal and the breakfast was excellent too. The staff were very friendly and chatty. Highly recommend staying here especially room 3.

The food is excellent, very good portions, we were lucky to get a table as a walk in but I’d advise you book a table, very popular,

A nice place to get out of the rain. I had fish and chips which was average and my husband had Peppered steak and mushroom pie which he enjoyed.

Went for a meal on Christmas eve with friends. Was very pleased with both the service and food. Following this we will visit again and would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere on Morecambe sea front.

Excellent. Been twice in December.. Both visits cannot fault the service. Very accommodating lovely atmosphere and food excellent.. Will be back. Thank you

I had the pressed lamb shoulder and it was beautifully tender and tasty. the staff were very friendly and helpful. the sticky toffee pudding and custard should also get a very good mention.

We visited yesterday for Sunday lunch as we were staying in Morecambe. We didn’t book so were fortunate there were a couple of tables left. Initially we were sat on a high table which was awkward and not comfortable for eating, although fine for drinks....

The serving staff are very professional and the food is really special . It is good traditional fare , but the chef is excellent and manages to bring flare to all the dishes . I would absolutely recommend this place to eat .

Really enjoyed eating here. Good choice on menu. All meals great. Good service. It was busy and glad we’d booked in advance.

Went here for lunch and it was delicious. Safely served with all staff following the rules. The prawn sandwiches were gorgeous and hubby loved his ploughman's. Will be back when in the area again. One thing to note, they serve it on a wooden board...

The rib eye steak was a bit fatty but very tender and beautifully cooked. This was our first visit to Morecambe and we tried a number of eateries. The staff here were lovely and everything was spotless.

Attentive, friendly staff, interesting menu and quality of food was a refreshing change to some other restaurants in the area.

Walked in hoping to eat where seated at a table server finally arrived with a menu looking very disinterested so we had drinks and left for somewhere ,more friendly
