The Crown in Bournemouth

Food was amazing, cooked to perfection and staff very helpful and friendly. Will definitely be back.

Toilets need updating but great staff, landlord and food.

Had steak and a mixed grill both cooked perfectly. 30% of mains was a juicy bonus.

An excellent meal tonight, the steak was delicious, cooked to perfection, chef Jack cooks to perfection. A lovely evening meal.

It great to watch the sport in this pub now go a couple of times a week to do so

The service was very good, efficient and very friendly the food was also lovely

From the very beginning of my dining experience I was overwhelmed by the welcoming nature of the chef, Jack and the bar staff at this place. It was by chance I came across it in the first place so glad I did! Thank you for the excellent service and quality feed I had that day. Il be seeing you all soon! Love from Mustard!

Very great service, food was lovely as always.

The food, as always, was amazing. Jack, the chef, is such a friendly and welcoming guy. The bar staff are always friendly and chatty too. All in all a lovely pub

Popped in for a couple of drinks. Had a great experience with the staff and the atmosphere was lovely. James and Matt were very friendly

The food here is lovely and they have deals on all the time we had two steaks and a drink really friendly staff we were served by Matthee

Jo was very friendly and helpful , service excellent, food very tasty all plates cleared .definitely will come again soon

Very good food and freshly cooked. Friendly service and quiet atmosphere. Clean and well presented establishment.

Great evening out with friends, very good value for money, will definitely go again.

Roast dinner was very poor, all overcooked, service very slow and table chairs very sticky and dirty. Monday my friend went in to order coffee and they had no milk

Came in on a not very busy day with 4 friends. Ordered at the bar with a very young barmaid at 1.30pm. After 30 minutes of waiting, asked where food was to be told 5 minutes. 12 minutes later still nothing, was told another 5mins. All in was coming up to an hours wait for 3 x hunters chicken and a jacket potato. Hunters chicken barely had any salad and the skimpiest bit of bbq sauce on it. Upon starting to split the bill noticed that the barmaid had no applied the lunch deal offer which we specifically asked for so had to return to the bar for a refund. Not impressed especially as hardly anyone had food and it was not busy.

Becky was so helpful and friendly.

I have been to the Crown many times over the years and had nice meals there but not yesterday.We had booked a table for 5 . We ordered and had to wait an hour for our food , when it came it was very average , the Hunters Chicken had very little sauce, the salad was a few wilted leaves. I had to ask for complimentary soft drinks !!! Then there was a mistake with the bill . We will not be returning.

The waitress Petra gave phenomenal service and was extremely kind and helpful with my partner who has allergy issues!!

Had Fish & Chips and Hunters Chicken (two visits!). Both excellent. Good quantities, freshly cooked, tasty and filling. Impressed.

We had lunch and it was quite ok. The starters with the Natcho plate were very tasty. The fish and chips were ok and the gammon wasn't quite as good. But I really don't have to recommend it. The service was positive, it was very nice and helpful.

Today on my journeys I stumbled upon the pub to be greeted by the lovely young Millie behind the bar. Served a nice cold guiness with a smile went a long way for me in my experience here at the Crown today. Kudos to Millie and the team. I will be returning

Lovely pub, amazing food all brought to me by the wonderful smiley miss millie

Excellent food we had Macaroni cheese it was tastiest I've had and salad that came with was delicious. Will definitely be returning for more food

Great food, would definitely recommend the ultimate chicken burger, staff really friendly and helpful, ellie served us and was very helpful and polite. will definitely be back soon

Great choices on menu & affordable prices... Service is good would highly recommend ☺️

Good service, friendly staff and lovely food

So happy we have found this pub. Short walk from home. The pub is very inviting with a nice atmosphere and a lovely outdoor area. The food is delicious and service great.

Used this pub for a number of years but since then new manager has come in it seems like it has gone downhill the toilets aren't clean the floor feels sticky and so does the tables it seems like they have a very lazy cleaner the only saving grace for the pub is the girls behind the bar are amazing aswel as becky as she has been very welcoming everytime me and my family have been there when she is working it's just a shame that a great family pub has gone downhill like this in a space of a year

Excellent food and drink great service from the bar maid becky

Always good food and choice of drinks

Great food and great atmosphere we were served by becky and nothing was too much trouble

Just discovered this pub, brilliant food, good service and a lovely atmosphere, will now be a regular visitor. Well done to all.

- waited over an hour for our food - two mains arrived then 20 mins later the rest arrived - no disabled parking or entrance (steps to get through the door) After being highly recommended we are very disappointed and we won’t be visiting again.

Great place to eat or drink. Food is excellent. The guys who work there are lovely. Would totally recommend. Maybe book as they do get booked out.

Great atmosphere, incredible prices and friendly staff! And food was great too :)

Great service, great food and atmosphere.

One cannot fathom an idea of how great this pub truly is. Perfect in every way, I would sell my van, house, kidneys and first born to keep this place alive. Literally heaven on Earth.

A few items ordered from the menu they didn't have. Fish was all batter and hardly any fish.

Was served today by James. Was very helpful

Friendly and approachable lady who served us at our table so that we didn't need to go to order at the bar which was great. Quick svs with drinks and a great choice of food. The food was tasty and hot when it arrived.

A great friendly pub, good beer and food.

Great pub wonderful atmosphere served by matt and Hugo incredible pub

Just been along for Tuesday specials, early dinner. I chose the salmon with Hollandaise sauce, cooked to perfection, served with salad and new potatoes, faultless. My husband chose the combo, half a roast chicken and rump steak served with corn on the cob, chips, coleslaw, peas & tomato. Thoroughly enjoyed it, excellent pub food, very friendly staff

Great local pub, great friendly atmosphere. Becky is amazing Great pub grub and always busy at weekends so be sure to book in advance. .

Great service and friendly staff, good chose of Ales and great menu and sky sports what more could you ask for.

Amazing service from the team. Jordan and Maddie were quick with getting our drinks. Food was great, Kat made my food on point. Will be coming back again and again for a great service.

Amazing food and great service, the lovely Becky served us, nothing was to much trouble. We will definitely be back.

always enjoy going there ; its lopular and busy. staff always courtious and obliging.

Lovely friendly pub , bar staff are very helpful and polite didn't eat but food that we saw coming out looks good and going to come back again to try the food

A lovely friendly pub with friendly and helpful staff 😀 have been on several occasions and l now made it my new local food always looks good when it comes out

Amazing service, staff all lovely and food delicious

Becky was amazing. Serving was incredible and food amazing 5*

Wonderful experience on my first visit, will definitely be back now I know they have TNT & Sky !

Great little pub with friendly staff and fantastic good.

Perfect family pub.. Becky and the bar staff are all brilliant and the landlord is spot on

Wow it’s is great the Euros are on they have decorated the hole pub looks good and the atmosphere in there for the first England game was unbelievable can’t wait for the next game the food was good has well we all had burgers

Lovely food. Good selection of drinks and great staff. Served at weekend by lovely barman Hugo.

The pub was clean and inviting. The menu had a good selection of food. The food when it arrived was hot and tasty. The only issue was the length of time between ordering and the food arriving, quite slow but worth the wait. I would go back.

Despite yet another price increase (just before the start of the Euros football tournament, or is that being overly cynical???), it was a pleasant atmosphere with good service. Did not try the food on this occasion. New TV screen is a bonus, with Sky/TNT Sports also now installed. Gents toilets let the pub down though and need (remedial & cleansing) attention, hence only 4 stars given. Shame.

What a great pub friendly staff love it here

Lovely food and great atmosphere. The staff here are very friendly and have good service

Ordered 1 small scamp and chips with mushy peas and 1 small fish and chips came out 30 min later as 2 scamp and chips told staff order wrong so he took it away came back in 5 to say slight delay and sorry. Carrying 2 scamp and chips we said would take that to save him any trouble. We ate these very dry and no hint of giving us back the price difference Staff just don't listen any more.

Great pub with lovely friendly staff like Gary and jordan

Matt and Becky are the best! I will be returning just for them from the states. The cowboy burger was AMAZING. 10/10 recommend.

Absolutely brilliant service from Ellie and Gary on the bar. Food was fabulous. We had the hot dogs and the burgers, perfectly cooked. Can't wait for the next time we come up.

Had a meal , bar staff were lovely including and Kat and Kerian who made the lovely food. Thank you 😊

Great pub amazing atmosphere, thank you to Matthew who served us

Had a lovely lunch out with family, food was great and the atmosphere was so welcoming. Would definitely be back again. Thank you. Massive thank you to kat, Kieran, Garry and Ellie service was amazing.

Kat did a good hunters chicken😁

Good choice of menu, quick service

Went today for a few pints & food, absolute bliss, lovely outdoor area to enjoy the good weather! Thanks to Matthew for the hospitality.

lovely surroundings great staff very helpful, good food, quality very good

I went with friends and we all enjoyed our meals

visited the crown last week, served by millie who was lovely and helpful x x x

Well wahat a crock of .... The manager when questioned on drink prices became very defensive to a simple question. My husband and myself both ordered drinks at the bar and heard completely different prices than charged. We can't both have misheard the prices which were well above what was charged. The customer service was non existent. I've live within 2 miles of this pub all my life and I can honestly say that it is no longer a welcoming local pub...it thinks it's something else since it's refurbishment... it's not. Won't be going here again.

Lovely service guys supported me over the phone to book the table

Lovely meal. My wife had scampi and I had a curry. Both were great quality and adequate portion sizes. Service was pretty quick despite being busy (we booked quite early). The staff were helpful and seemed happy to serve.

Sadly, not the local we loved for 20 years. Landlord & Landlady stood at the end of the bar while one very good barman did his best to deal with a queue of 5 people and struggled on his own. Management Were not interested. Sadly the food was very poor quality & small portions. End of an era.

Very good service! Friendly staff. Good value food.

Really slow service. Table booked for 7pm but we couldn't order a dessert at 9.15pm as it was too late. This was not our fault as took nearly an hour to receive food. Similar problems last time we visited. Gone down hill since new management.

Clean brighter and good service

We had to wait for 1 an half hour for our food never waited that long there

Wife and I returned on 10 April for dinner with a friend who has a new puppy which was no problem for the restaurant staff (Becky, Millie & Ellie) who sat us in a "dogs allowed area" inside (pouring with rain outside) and even brought Bobby his own drinking bowl . The food was of the same high standard as our prior visit -we recommend the Fish & Chips and wife and I shared the Mega Mix Grill - All perfectly cooked in a warm and friendly atmosphere . We used to travel out of town to Country pubs but having discovered the Crown on our doorstep so to speak, this has saved on needless travel - thank you again the great staff at the Crown. Prior visit experience below My wife and I dropped in for a late lunch as were passing close by the Crown Broadhurst Avenue Bournemouth, and thought why not. There was plenty of parking, the place was warm and welcoming and the staff - Becky and Molly - brilliant both highly efficient and helpful with our menu choices. Great to have staff that care about one's entire meal experience. The mega mix grill was outstanding being perfectly cooked and presented - thank you

Such a lovely atmosphere upon arrival very welcoming The staff were brilliant with my 2year old son The food was the best home cooked style food I have ever had So glad we have found this little treasure we shall be using this pub again thank you to all staff xxxx

The service and the food were very good. Very disappointed that a group of three men on the next table were using foul language and were vaping some of the time.

No prawn cocktail. Service was very slow. No tab running, (One was run for years with previous landlord, John, with no upset). Extras not offered e.g. mustard, Mango chutney had to be requested for curry. Staff were pleasant but there was no 'soul' in the premises. It seemed like it was all process, process, process and customers were there to serve the needs of the business. The place was clean and tidy and neatly laid out - it was noticable but the heart of the place was missing.

Nice food very reasonably priced Staff very helpful

It was OK. Not particularly warming. No meet and greet, we had to find our own reserved table. It was clearly marked 5

I was served by the lovely maddie, Matthew and Hugo on a Saturday night! Xx

I booked a table on line but no table was reserved even though you confirmed the booking. But food was excellent and the service from Beckie was also Excellent

Had a lovely meal. Service was excellent. the only disappointment was someone smoking in the entrance outside and you could smell the smoke inside.

Popular local. Good food. Good value. 2 electric car charge points.

Pleasent staff Enjoyable evening nice food

The food and service here is very good and they have real ale which is nice.

Speedy service, food was great - served by Eva who was very understanding and patient with our dietary requirements

we popped in to the Crown was greeted by the manager who showed us where are booking was explained that we could order at the bar or on the QR code on the menu which we did it was is easy to do The food was lovely and the staff was helpful and friendly will be back thank you Crown

Service by a server named Eva was lovely, had a great time.

The lady on duty was exceptional attentive, especially regarding the food order and service was quick. The food was piping hot, unfortunately the only draw back is everything is served with albeit excellent chips and peas. My Aunt and myself enjoyed the Steak and Ale pie, especially as it came with delicious extra gravy, as I was eating the pie I would have preferred say broccoli instead of chips. My Aunt is unable to eat peas, beans or mushrooms however settled on half of a grilled tomato thanks to the kindness of the lady on duty, she loved the chips.
