Crown Inn Goostrey in Cheshire East

Excellent evening dinner and service in nice surroundings.

Great food slow service dues to staff shortage

Lovely place & thats all that can be said 😀

Great pub with friendly staff and very tasty food.

Enjoyed a light lunch here. Nice food, and served really hot. Tomato soup is very tasty. Definitely worth a visit. 2 April 2025 Another lovely visit to the Crown Inn . The staff are friendly and helpful. Toby and Haydon made us feel welcome. The food was very good. Served really hot on hot plates to help keep it hot. Tomato and basil soup is excellent. And the steak pie is delicious with nicely cooked vegetables. So thank you to all the staff working yesterday. We really enjoyed our visit.

Lovely place to have a family meal, amazing food, friendly service, lovely warm atmosphere. Would highly recommend. We were served by Toby and he was very attentive. Will definitely return ☺️

Friendy and welcoming staff. Great food. Relaxed dining. Will definitely be back.

Booked a dog friendly table …..we were put in the ‘Tap room’ …..that wasn’t an issue but the service was non existent ….we were totally forgotten about !!!…. Won’t be hurrying back despite the food being excellent… what a pity

Sadly we never got served or had the chance to enjoy a nice meal. We stood at the bar for a while waiting for a server to arrive. They eventually arrived and went straight to a couple who had just walked through the door! Not even an acknowledgement that we'd been seen, let alone a simple 'who's next please'. Another group were waiting very patiently to pay... very patiently! We had a little wander as it was our first time here and wanted to see where about the tables for dining were; at which point we were told to go and wait to be served. We responded it was our first time and just wanted a quick look before we were served at the bar, and made our way over to ask for a table for four. Anyway, at this point we gave up, and sadly left. We are new to the area and looking for places to frequent/enjoy time with friends and family/dine. 3.45pm on a Saturday afternoon and It wasn't busy, but I guess you don't like new customers 🤔 or you're seriously understaffed... either way, a polite welcome or acknowledgement that we've been seen is basic hospitality. Maybe we'll return at some point and give you another go? We'll see.

Tristan and Toby served us and were extremely attentive. Very polite and friendly. Great service.

Excellent friendly welcoming pub.plenty of parking , nice and warm both physically and from staff . The food was fantastic

Great food and drink… the pies were delicious!! All the staff were friendly and engaging. If we’re ever staying in the area again we will certainly be back

Lovely place, food and staff. Highly recommended

Food yummy, good value 2 course for £15 (we shared starter and sweet), and the staff were very attentive and friendly. Thank you for an enjoyable, relaxing lunch

Tried out the new menu with my family tonight - the food was lovely & we had a great experience. Jack, Maddie, Lydia & Alex were attentive & friendly. I ate off the NGCI menu and my dietary requirements were taken care of.

The food and service was excellent, will certainly visit again and recommend you to family and friends

Looked forward to a delicious roast dinner with a catch up with friends. Sadly the food was terrible. Trio of meats roast dinner ordered. The meat was dry and tough And a waste of money.

I came in for a meal with some family earlier this week and everything was amazing. The staff and the food were both exceptional. We were served by both Tristian and Hayley, nothing was too much hassle! The food was piping hot and served quickly, loved the new menu and our favourite was definitely the kebabs and chicken burger! Will be returning again soon!

We enjoyed a lovely 'twixmas' lunch here with friends. The atmosphere was quaint and cosy and we were welcomed by the friendly staff. The food was very good and well presented and value for money. We will definitely return to test out a Sunday roast. Thank you.

A relaxed, enjoyable early supper. Lovely little steak pie and tasty gravy.

Lydia was a wonderful waitress, she maintained a lovely atmosphere and wasn’t afraid to laugh along with us. Absolutely wonderful!

Also a fantastic experience coming to the crown, wonderful welcome, great food and great Drink

Very good food, very good service. We will be back!

I visited the Crown Inn with my family last week, we had an amazing meal. The service and food were exceptional. We each had a starter and main course, then had to share a pudding because we were too full! Olivia, Tristian and Matt were all super lovely and attentive. We will be coming back again soon!!

Excellent service and nice staff. Unfortunately, when we arrived, we were told most of the menu was unavailable.

Great service and great food. Had a really good Sunday lunch. Roast beef and all the trimmings. Service was excellent and we all enjoyed our meal. Would recommend The Crown.

We were served by Olivia who was very accommodating from the off with allergies. Also nice to have someone serve you who seems happy to be there. Food was excellent as always. Looking forward to the new menu.

Very friendly welcoming staff, knowledgeable, attentive. Quick, but not rushed service. Lovely hot comforting food. Cosy atmosphere.

Food was fantastic! Took advantage of the 30% off mains deal and were not disappointed. Would be happy to pay full price for what we had. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere. Will definitely be back with friends in the near future.

Could not fault the whole eating experience

Had 2 Festive meals over Christmas in a group both very nice staff was brilliant and service was great when the restaurant was very busy Jay and Alex & Haydon in the kitchen and staff serving the food Kate Hayley & liv all made for a great experience would highly recommend can’t wait for our next visit

Super meal as usual at a lovely local

6 of us had a fabulous evening at The Crown yesterday night. We all had a main course followed by a Quiz. The food was extremely good, my steak cooked to perfection and everyone else happy with their meal. As it was Quiz night the pub was very busy but the staff were brilliant, friendly and cheerful although very rushed and they helped to make a great evening. Well done The Crown and all your staff!!!

Great pub with very friendly staff and excellent food and service.

Lovely cosy environment. Cheerful staff, good service, fabulous food. Well run, efficient pub.

This was our 3rd visit and as always the service was 2nd to none and Isabel who served us was very helpful, friendly and courteous 5* to Isabel

Great place for food and drinks. Great staff amazing food.

Disappointed visit, with two Christmas parties there was loads of room but little service at the inn.

Food great service excellent comfortable not rushed and overall great friendly place to eat or just go for a drink love coming to The Crown for food and an evening out in great company. Hope and Hayden are brilliant attentive hosts

Fantastic dining experience, great food, friendly staff and a really good environment.

Tristian couldn’t have been more accommodating he was so lovely and we will be returning not just because the food is incredible but because he was incredible and Lydia was also so lovely such a sweet girl !!

This was our first visit on our way to an event at Jodrell Bank. We arrived a bit early but had a warm welcome on arrival. Its a lovely pub, food was delicious and tasty. Staff very friendly. Will definitely return

For a family gathering we booked the Crown Inn. Ordered the food and it arrived quickly and was excellent. Definitely going back!

food was great friendly staff nice atmosphere

Great experience all around. The food is terrific and the staff are very welcoming and friendly. Lydia always has a smile for us and we always enjoy our times here.

We had the steak pie Delicious , lovely pastry , nice tender steak full of flavour and delicious gravy The carrots were so tasty Couldn’t fault the food or service would definitely recommend and will visit again in the future

Found this place while staying at the cranage spa hotel. What a great place, really good food and very reasonably priced. Different staff the three times we came and they were all excellent.

First time coming here and the food and service was amazing! I had a chicken burger and my friend had lasagna which she loved. Tristian was our server and he was super attentive and very helpful as I can be rather picky sometimes :) Thankyou Tristian!

My favorite pub. The best staff, the best service, the best lasagne.

We enjoyed a good evening meal in the bar area. The pub was happy to welcome us with our dog. Friendly service from bar staff. Food was piping hot!

I used to come to The Crown in Goostrey when they hosted Poems & Pints events. In 2024, me and my family came back for Sunday Lunch. The entire establishment has changed so much since we last came, and The Crown is even more wonderful than it was before. The food was absolutely delicious, the staff asked about and fulfilled all dietary requirements, they made sure all our orders were as requested, they provided colouring in for my niece to make sure she was entertained whilst waiting for food…we’ve been to The Crown twice this year now, and the service has been absolutely top-notch, with the food being Olympic-Standard. The atmosphere is tremendous and comfortable, the clientele are friendly, you’ll be spoilt for choice with the menu and The Crown caters to all. Thank you all very much and have a wonderful Christmas!

Always amazing meal and service. Nothing is too much for the staff and the food is always outstanding. Thank you very much!!!!

Excellent food and service as always especially Hayley. Lovely atmosphere. Quiz night is always great too. Will be back again soon.

had a family dinner here and the food was amazing. pub was lovely and Hayley who served us was brilliant.

Fantastic night for the George Michael tribute night. Superb service from the team and food was perfect! Great party atmosphere!

Good dining area friendly staff good food & drinks. Well looked after.

first visit but wont be the last, party for 4,and we all had a lovely pleasant evening, the food was fantastic and staff were very efficient, welcoming and friendly Would recommend to anyone to give The Crown a try, I've already told friends to go hope to see you soon

Good food, nice people and reasonable price.

Table booked for 8 people. Great food, service and attention to detail - served by Hayley and Tristian

Service was prompt,food was lovely and fresh,atmosphere was nice..

A lovely meal at the Crown, Goostrey. Beautiful food served quickly and piping hot. Wonderful staff that delivered great service, a lovely experience and I will definitely be back again very soon

Nice food, great service, lovely place, will be back, had the halloumi kebab which was great. My cousin had the cheese leek and potato pie which she said was the best pie she ever had

Lovely,cosy pub in a pretty village with good car park. Pleasant staff on bar and serving food. Good food - reasonably priced.

My first visit and I'll definitely be coming back.

Came in on Sunday and whilst it was very busy the staff handled it fantastically well. I can see why they run out of roasts so fast as they get very busy and the roasts are literally out of this world! Kate and Hayley were lovely. Will definitely be back. Best pub in the area.

Never had a bad experience here. Tristian is so welcoming and Jason the chef always produces a great meal. The chicken and chorizo kebab and the steak and ale pie were delicious, they arrived quickly and hot. Service is always great, with the entire team being friendly and knowledgeable. Good range of drinks too!

Firstly, we booked a table for 4-30 pm on a Sunday afternoon for my partners 18th twins birthday meal. We got a phone call at 3-45 to say there were only serving roast beef & had no Yorkshire Puddings,(how hard is it to make them) then on arrival taking our orders we were told all roast dinners were finished. So we ordered Steak & Ale pie….. 5 mins later the Steak n Ale pie had run out, so its probably best if you ask what they have got to be honest. After we ordered what basically was left, my partner asked for extra gravy, it arrived just as she finished her meal, & guess what…….they charge you for extra gravy!!!! Hence to say we didn’t pay for the luxury of extra gravy. I would avoid this place and go to the Space Invader pub next door, far better food & a very nice landlord (host). Don’t waste your money!

Booked a table for 5pm, was really looking forward to trying a roast dinner for the first time there but was advised when we got there that there were no roast dinners left at all (looking at the reviews this is a common occurrence) and a number of other mains were also sold out. Decided to stay and had two normal mains. The food was alright, the 30% off mains made it good value but I wouldn't have it again (I had a chicken burger, the batter was quite soft, a buttermilk fried chicken burger should be a bit crunchy if it's battered). Really annoying that they'd sold out of roast dinners, 5pm is not late at all. I don't think I'll be coming back to try again. Overall extremely disappointing.

Great meal, great beer, great service, great place… really love the Crown Inn and would recommend to anyone!

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, warm, cosy & just the right level of lighting. Good quality, hearty food, hot & well presented. Tristan looked after us tonight, so pleasant & attentive without mithering too often…..professional but also easy to talk to - a credit to the Crown. Great food & great service!! Thank you & See you soon 😊

Lovely welcome on arrival. Sunday lunch 3 roasts was superb! Dog friendly in the pub area. Nice that small 125 ml measures of wine are available. We will be back. ☺️

We had a lovely meal, very friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere.

1st time visit to the Crown and so very pleased we finally made the effort…..Whilst we had a 30% off Main meal voucher we had cycled through Goostrey several times and discussed visiting this appealing pub many times. A lovely setting, a nice cosy pub, lovely food and the locally brewed beer very nice too

Pleasent atmosphere & helpful staff. Good menu choices & tasty food

Lovely friendly staff, nice atmosphere. Good food, though only 3 pieces of chicken on a skewer costing £16 was a little disappointing, could have been more chicken, slightly less onion

A great pub and extremely friendly

Visited the Crown a few times recently and been served by so many lovely staff! Kate and Hayley have been amazing on our recent visits. Both so lovely and nothings ever a hassle! The foods always cooked perfectly. We’ve tried the food from the main and the lunch menu, we were pleasantly surprised by the new Specials they’ve put on for the weekend! Delicious! We’ll be sure to return again soon, definitely recommend a visit!

Great food at good prices. Friendly staff. Matt and Kate looked after us really well.

I was here the other night and Matt was very welcoming and very helpful , definitely recommend and I will definitely be coming back!

We have Just had a lovely beef and pork Sunday dinners. Even though it was 5pm, where in some places it means the veg and roasts are dried out, the veg and roasts were all lovely. Plenty of veg and meat. Gravy came in its own pot which is also a plus as you can choose how much and where to have it. Service efficient and pleasant. Will be back. Keep the pork on the menu please!

Friendly welcome. NIce decor. Ordre taken promptly. Food served fresh and hot - excellent (so many places serve luke-warm!) Fish cakes and Arancinni to start were both delicious. Good fish and chips. Proper mushy peas and proper chips. Fish could have been a bit chunkier, but it was fine

We had the best service from Tristian, he’s amazing! I’d 100% recommend visiting, you won’t be disappointed.

The food was really good really enjoyable evening, I was served by alesea who was really attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Would highly recommend to anyone

Friendly staff, good choice of drinks and food. Food was lovely. We booked for Sunday dinner but they had all sold out. What was excellent service is that we was called before our visit to advise on this. Excellent service!! We chose other food off the menu which was lovely. Really enjoyed our visit.

Welcoming upon arrival, delicious food and lovely atmosphere

Great service from Isabel, Lydia & Kate and good food

Warm greeting Not rushed at all A member of our party is both gluten & dairy free .... catered for very well

Excellent Sunday lunch. Great food, including vegetarian, nice atmosphere and friendly service. Definitely need to come back soon.

Mum and I took a chance on a last minute booking for Sunday Lunch last week. When we arrived we greeted by our waitress Olivia, she seated us took our drinks order and gave us plenty of time to peruse the menu. We chose from the Sunday Roast section. Mum has a garlic intolerance and Olivia showed and explained the menu app which explained which foods to avoid. I had the Beef and Mum had the Turkey option. When the meal was served it was hot and pleasing to the eye. The food was cooked beautifully and tasted amazing, we sent our compliment to the chef. We even had dessert and Apple and Cherry crumble which was gorgeous. Mum and I we very pleased that we had chosen The Crown at Goostrey and will definitely recommend it to all our friends and family.

A fab local that has tasty food, a great atmosphere with friendly and smiley staff. We were served by the lovely tristion who was attentive, well mannered and helpful when we had questions about the menue. We often come for either dinner or just drinks and everytime its a lovely experience.

This was an unplanned visit but we were very glad that we did. The food was really nice and there was a great choice on the menu, catering for all tastes. The kids menu was very good. The Crown was dog friendly too, so the whole family enjoyed it.

The food was good service was very good we were served by Tristian who was brilliant he his a credit to the Crown and we hope he is there for a long time.

We had a lovely birthday lunch, the staff were fabulous as was the food.

Staff were great. Very welcoming, brought treats and water for our dog and couldn’t fault them. Food was good too, we will be back to support our local pub

We made the atmosphere, Matt was a top fella 10/10 would come again (just for Matt) absolute top fella

Great food & service. Dog friendly too.

Don’t know why we have left it so long because we had an excellent meal. Service also excellent very pleasant staff. Will definitely be visiting soon. Many thanks

Lovely pub with a great atmosphere - I walk my dog here frequently and we are always greeted with fast and friendly service. Staff are always lovely and service is great even during especially busy periods. I cannot eat gluten and the gluten free/NGCI menu is extensive (pretty much all of the dishes off the regular menu can be made gluten free). I have eaten here lots of times and never had a reaction so I know they handle allergens carefully. A personal favourite is the gluten free burger!

Great service from Kate & Tristian. We had a lovely dinner

Excellent food and service. Fantastic value for money
