The Crown in South Gloucestershire

Great Sunday lunch. Staff efficient friendly and helpful. Food delicious. Good choice of menu including small taster deserts so not too indulgent.

Lovely hotel amazing management nothing too much trouble! Food amazing ! Thank you kirsty see u next year !

Family meet up - lovely food and great service

A warm welcome. A lovely spacious well presented room. Delicious food prepared by an excellent chef. All staff very friendly and helpful. Well done Kirsty and colleagues.

Delicious food, good service ☺️

Ideal location for walking the Cotswold Way, very friendly and accommodating service and good menu choice. Great pies!

staff were very friendly and welcoming and organised an early check in and a take away breakfast as i left early. highly recommend staying at the Crown.

A great place to stop off and refresh your self good food and service from very friendly staff

Enjoyed lunch at The Crown following a visit to Dyrham Park (National Trust).Excellent food and service.

We chose the Crown Inn as we were going to attend the nearby Badminton House open garden. The staff were very welcoming and were helpful and pleasant throughout our stay. Our room was comfortable and had all the amenities that we needed. Food was well cooked and plentiful although the parsnips, cauliflower cheese and broccoli at Sunday supper were below par. We stayed for 2 nights.

Lovely pub, great food, excellent service. I emailed in advance of my visit for lunch, as I have unusual food intolerances and wanted to check I could be catered for. Emails were prompt and very helpful, so I booked a table. On arrival, the staff knew exactly what I could and couldn't eat, and went out of their way to ensure I was looked after. The meal was absolutely delicious. The pub is right by the main road, but it's not a bother from inside. It's clean, comfortable, and welcoming. If I'm ever in the area again, I'd definitely return. Thank you!

Great boutique motel with super friendly staff

Really welcoming team that really care about you. Food was very good and decent portions too. We stayed on a Wednesday so got 25% off. Rooms clean, tidy, would have been 5* but for a bit of road noise, however I reckon another beer would have solved that. Will stay again

A Great Way to Start The Day. Good vibes on the phone. Wonderful late night check in service after long flight. Rooms feel friendly clean and homely in this small independent offering different level of service (no ugly uniforms just smiles and an uplifting atmosphere) impossible to compare this accommodation to places such as premier inn or travel lodge and for only a few pound more when you understand the breakfast is included! Oh and the breakfast- super tasty great ingredients. Best of all surrounded by other happy guests enjoying The Crown Inn … visit and see for yourself.

One night stop over on way to Wales and perfect location just off M4. Dog friendly rooms very comfortable, food very good and fabulous service from everyone that we met. Many thanks.

This was a family meet half way. Perfect coming off the M4 Staff were very helpful and the toasts we ordered were big and filling. We didn’t know what to expect but were pleasantly surprised !!

Great room with modern features, powerful shower along with a comfortable bed to end the day. The free parking and breakfast included is a bonus. Overall a great package.

Fantastic little pub, service was fantastic and food delicious. Highly recommended. We had both an evening meal and breakfast here as stayed over night. Quality of the ingredients especially at breakfast was high and very tasty. If I lived locally I'd be here more often. Rooms, very cute in the barns. The rooms were stunning and very well styled eith attention to detail. The bathroom is a little tired but functional and fine. The bed was very comfy. The rooms are near the road and there is some road noise, this wasn't an issue for my partner and I wore ear plugs as I'm a light sleeper and was fine. They actually do provide ear plugs for your use if you need them. Would definitely stay here and eat here again. Nice and close for bath racecourse.

Another excellent lunch, thank you 😊

A great place to meet for lunch, good atmosphere and quality fare a short distance from M4 J18

Omg it's just perfect on so many levels for us. We are made to feel so welcome from the moment you check in until you check out. Nothing is too much trouble and you have everything you need. Rooms are clean and comfortable with tea and coffee and of course lovely biscuits which is a nice gesture too.

We stopped here on the way home to Wales from Trowbridge and we are so happy we did! The food was outstanding and the service was excellent, as we just turned up on the off chance and they managed to squeeze us in. This place is a gem and if you ever pass it on the main road, stop in sometime. You won't be disappointed!

Lovely Sunday lunch, had the roast beef and chicken. Lovely tender beef. Loads of veg and gravy. Choc rice pudding and crumble for dessert were fab. Great service and everyone cheerful. Would definitely recommend

Really enjoyed our stay at The Crown. The rooms were very spacious and spotless. Comfy beds. Also pub was lovely and cosy and staff couldn’t do enough for you. Would highly recommend

A beautiful find. A lovely stay, rooms are well equipped & great standard. Evening meal was also lovely with great hospitality. Would stay again & highly recommend.

Sunday lunch in this fully booked pub today, really pleased with the quality of food - roast beef v good & veg Wellington option impressed this discerning vegetarian - even a vegan option is available! Tasty puds too. Great service, nice helpful staff.

We had a lovely welcome and a fabulous meal in your restaurant, very relaxing. A great meeting place between Bristol and Bath. We look forward to our next visit.

A very pleasant stay for two nights, in mixed weather, one day of sunshine arrival and departure day the seasonal wet weather! Staff very friendly, helpful and attentive to our needs. First class, all of them.

Great menu and locally brewed beers. Great offers through the app too.

Great food and excellent service

Excellent stop off on our journey. Had a great lunch with delightfully staff.

The personnel touches in the room made such a difference.food was fabulous bed soooo comfortable

Looking for somewhere to stay as a mid way meet up and found this lovely place. The food was lovely and the room we stayed was clean, beautiful decor with everything you need, coffee/ tea, shower gel, water, iron etc in the room but in there with an added touch, everything was spotlessly clean and will definitely book again. The staff in the pub were lovely and nothing too much trouble even to giving us a flask of milk for our drinks. Rooms are quirky and definitely worth a trip. Really enjoyed my stay here.

Delightful staff always, always at hand to help and advise. Menus (breakfast, lunch and supper) are varied and suit all tastes. Although not vegan myself, I enjoyed the unusual ravioli and curry dishes. Rooms have everything required, peaceful and the inn is ideal location between motorway and Lansdown Park and Ride into the city.

Very nice people, good food and convenient for Bath. Only downside is the nearness of the busy road.

Rooms are good slept well , Great staff, Great Food, Great service, what more can one say.

A good welcome and delicious food.

We had a very enjoyable lunch. The food and service were excellent. Thank you and we’ll be back again soon.

Really enjoyed our stay, the landlady was very friendly and helpful throughout. Great quality food in the restaurant. Liked the decor in the bedroom and pub itself. Nice rural location near Dyrham Park and great for visiting Bristol and Bath.

The pub is excellent but on its own on a busy road though rooms are at the back so not noisy.

Three adults ate in the pub with our dog. We were all (including the dog) warmly welcomed and shown to our table. The service was attentive and there were no delays. As main courses, we had pheasant schnitzel, the pie and aubergine which were delicious. This was followed by dessert and coffee. We will be back.

Room was very comfortable and clean. Service was outstanding. Very welcoming team at Reception and in the restaurant. Would highly recommend.

We have just spent 5 nights with the crown at Tolldown. It was beyond our expectations. The staff including the assistant manager and manager were exceptionally helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. In recent years other places we have stayed at are minimal contact from checking in to leaving and lack the human touch. Our room was surprisingly quiet and very warm and extremely comfortable. We had a dog friendly room as we have a small dog and it was spotless and also beautifully dressed. We joined the Butcombe loyalty club app and received a reduction of around £20 per night and 25% off Wednesday evenings meal. The breakfasts were delicious and included in the price of the room which made it even tastier ☺️ the dinner menus were a great mix of fish beef chicken etc and the portions were just right. We eat in the bar every night which is so lovely. It’s a traditional Dickensian style place with lush well thought out decor to match the exterior of the building. Both comfortable and pleasing on the eye. The choice of beer ciders and wines were excellent. There are lots of places to visit within 20 minutes or more. The staff were supper helpful in suggestions of places to go for shops and tearooms etc. altogether probably one of the best places we’ve stayed in from all aspects of our experience past to present. If the owners of this establishment read this we just want to say congratulations. the team you have in the crown at tolldown is a perfect balance of what the hospitality sector should be built on. Warm welcomes, great food. Exceptional service. And all round good standards from start to Finnish. we found the Crown to be all of the above and more. And thankyou to everyone involved for a wonderful and memorable stay. A successful business is built on a successful team and the crown at Butcombe has it in spades. Congratulations to all the team and thankyou again for a warm memorable 5 nights stay. We are looking forward to our next planed visit.

Surprisingly good lunch/brunch. Good food and good service

Really nice pub/ hotel … nice breakfast with sourdough toast.. by Nice, friendly manager and staff. I would definitely stay here again

Easy to find as a half way point to meet friends. Food was lovely and staff friendly. The wait was a bit long for pudding order and bill. Think we were forgotten about but it was very busy. I'd go again

A delicious lunch. The menu is full of interesting meals, well cooked and beautifully presented. Will definitely visit again.

Wow amazing food, great service and a lovely cozy pub. Highly recommend.

We stay here regularly, so obviously we like it. Convenient for Bath. Food is excellent and the rooms are warm and cozy. As a Butcombe club member we also get a good deal...….

Nice clean and large bedroom with a super shower. Pubs dinner was excellent and breakfast was also very good. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would love to stay here again.

We had a lovely meal here on Saturday night. The good was marvellous, and the staff really helpful and friendly. Also, gorge decor!

Lunch at The Crown Tolldown was superb. Great location, great staff, great meal.

We popped in both ways on our way to Wales, lovely country pub on the road to Bath, interesting menu with enough to keep the kids excited. Butcombe brewery on draft as well.

Had an awesome Sunday roast and the staff were super helpful. Thank you to Oscar for the impeccable service.

We came as a party of 3 for dinner. Lovely food very friendly staff and a beautiful old pub. The only thing I would have a slight issue with is that my wife order a fish stew and it was tomato based which she found to be a bit unusual and was expecting something different. She’s not a big fan of tomato based sauces so perhaps this could be spesified on the menu but that is being picky. Overall had a lovely evening.

Have driven by many times. But came here finally at the suggestion of a friend Five of us met up as The Crown was central to us all. Excellent place. Friendly service. Delicious food. Highly recommended

Lonely, friendly Butcombe pub. Good beer and food and 25% off food Wednesday’s with a loyalty card.

Great rooms and a nice pub, would highly recommend if your staying in that area.

Another very nice stay at the crown on our way back down to Cornwall.

Lovely food, slightly cramped table, but great atmosphere and friendly service.

Lovely welcoming pub, great rooms, and really good location just off M4. Food is well priced and very good.

A great place to eat and stay. The food selection, quality and value for money is excellent. The rooms are warm, cosy and well maintained. All this matched by the excellent service and attention to detail. Will definitely return. Thanks for looking after us. 😎

Great pub and food in the evening. The overnight accommodation/rooms were excellent. Breakfast in the morning was superb.

Family Sunday lunch pleasant service wide menu not just roast sizeable helpings and delicious food.

The place is idyllic and charming. The room, spacious, beautiful and very comfortable. Great breakfast, extraordinary attention and charming Hanna

We chose the pub for its location to support family meeting up from different locations early in the New Year after we weren’t able to meet over Christmas. I mentioned in my booking a special request and the staff went out of their way to accommodate our requirements. Food and service were outstanding. Thankyou everyone at The Crown for making our party of 9 meal so special.

An easy place to meet up for a lively meal.

We really enjoyed our visit here, food was lovely and service was on point. Highly recommend and will definitely visit again when next in the area.

This was our second visit to The Crown. It’s in a great location. The rooms are extremely comfortable and have everything you could need. The food is excellent and Kirsty and her team are friendly and efficient and make you feel so welcome. We will return.

We loved our stay here Stayed in the annexe rooms which were cozy,warm and had everything we needed Defiantly felt homely Bed was comfy and big Breakfast was excellent and ate one night in the pub,and it was again excellent Greeted on arrival by a lovely young lady who was very friendly and helpful Wil definitely return when we are next this way Thankyou much needed break after Xmas busy days

Took our friend out to lunch for her 91st birthday.

Had a tremendous Boxing Day lunch with all the family, including those from the USA. Food was excellent as was the festive atmosphere. Would thoroughly recommend.

What a great stay hosted by the amazing team at The Crown Inn at Tolldown. The rooms, breakfasts and service throughout were of the highest quality and value for money. Thank you all. And thank you also for hosting 20 family members for Christmas Day lunch - the food and service were simply outstanding in a warm, relaxed setting.

Excellent food and service, will definitely be returning!

We had a superb Christmas Eve lunch at the Crown. Food absolutely delicious. We will most definitely be back

Stayed over xmas for a family getogether, everything was top rated, our room was 5 star as was breakfast. Xmas lunch with family was excellent and the staff were very attentive, especially with the young child in our party. This was the second xmas we have been at the Crown, and will happily come again.

Excellent staff, food and room.

Room very comfortable and clean. Breakfast out of this world!

Booking was easy, staff friendly at a very busy time. Location is easily found just off the M4 - the lack of views is made up for by the convenience of being an excellent pub so well placed.

We ate here for the second time after calling by on our way home. The food is incredible and service immaculate. All the staff so friendly, welcoming and attentive. The fire was roaring and the atmosphere was that of an old fashioned country pub ! Totally 10/10 We will be back for sure Merry Christmas to you all !

Superb meal on Dec 20. Excellent service. Good quality food. A reliable venue at all times.

Oscar was wonderful and attentive. Food was fresh and delicious. Great venue

Three of us reserved a table for lunch at 1.00pm on Monday 16th December’24. We arrived early and had a very warm welcome by a very efficient female member of staff. Our table was ready for us. We had with us our small quiet dog who was also welcomed with a biscuit. Service was excellent, although the restaurant was very busy. Our starters were very enjoyable and well presented. Our mains again were amazing; very tasty and well presented. Overall we were very impressed and have made plans to return. The owners should feel proud of the staff at The Crown. Nothing was too much trouble for them and as each group of guests arrived they continued to offer the same high standard of welcome and presentation. Thank you staff. Your welcome made such a difference.

I was completely impressed with their professionalism an customers service.🎄🌁🗽

Met my son for a Saturday brunch. Lovely surroundings, easy to find. Cosy. Great breakfast. Friendly and efficient staff. Will definitely visit again.

Good meeting place close to M4. Very comfortable, good parking and opening hours. Comprehensive menu that covers a good range of meal requirements. Food well prepared and presented by friendly staff. Enjoyed our visit and meal and hope to repeat the experience early in the new year.

I wanted to say what fantastic service I received it's always a God send. My journey was so stressful with the weather on Saturday and I was i had the warmest welcome from the manger. She is amazing! Everything you should be in hospitality! I go to a lot of place and this place is like a warm hug. The food and service is always 10 out 10. Thank for being amazing 👏 love ❤️ what you do, I've been a customer for over 10 years. I wish I could never leave.

Staff were friendly and accommodating. The service was efficient and delivered with a smile. The Christmas pie was delicious and the presentation of food was good. A very pleasant atmosphere. We will definitely return here when next in the area.

Fantastic food, lovely staff & great service 10/10

Very nice lunch at The Crown. Friendly staff who didn’t rush us but were on hand when needed. Good food and plenty of choice.

We were in the area for a couple of days visiting relatives and booked for an evening meal. Booking was simple and we were greeted by a lovely waitress who looked after us throughout our stay. We would highly recommend The Crown.

Incredible food incredible value incredible service!

Great place, friendly staff, good location

A late decision to stop on our way home from Bristol child care weekend. Warm welcome, lovely room , excellent evening meal served by friendly Oscar ! Good breakfast included and friendly service. We have already booked with friends so will be back in March 2025. So glad we decided to treat ourselves to one night and look forward to returning.

Safe for celiacs. They have a dedicated gluten free fryer, use a gluten free beer for the beer battered fish. Lovely staff who take allergies and dietary restrictions seriously and actually understand cross-contamination and they all speak to each other so I didn't have to repeat myself to different staff regarding the dietary requirements. They ensured even the ketchup was safe for me to eat and were really kind and lovely. There wasn't a massive food menu but the food was really good and great quality. Prices were good too and so were the drinks and the ambience. Driving out of the pub was a bit trickier so be aware that if you come by car you need to join a rather busy, especially during Christmas time, road but it's doable. Great parking with lots of spaces, lovely views from the outside and you can't hear the road at all.

Lovely place. Tastefully decorated. Very good food. Friendly and competent hard-working staff. Only negative comment is that they text you at 7:00 am (!) on the day you are due to arrive and on the day of departure, and also spam you with loads of emails.

Unfortunately not a good experience. The waitress dropped 2 full pints of drink all over my husband. Glasses and all. I appreciate that accidents happen but the staff then just gave him some towels and said don't worry we won't charge you for the drinks. They weren't even our drinks! Tried to raise to another waitress that it wasn't acceptable and she just said I don't see what your issue is. She was very rude! My issue is you dropped 2 full drinks over my husband who then had to drive an hour home in soaking wet clothes and you didn't try to do anything to fix it except made a rude comment that you didn't make us pay for the drinks you spilled! Also, when we arrived we were asked would we like some water for the table. We weren't told this water would cost us nearly £4! Such a shame because it's a lovely little pub and food was nice.

What an amazing place. The food, service, ambience, the people. This is a must to visit if you're in the area. You'll need to book though as it's that good. We'd like to thank everyone for their extremely warm welcome, we can't wait to come again, next time we will be staying.

We met here for lunch. Service was excellent, and food was what we expected - good pub grub.

La struttura è davvero molto bella, con arredi caratteristici da tipico pub inglese. L'ambientazione sembra quella di film natalizi molto molto romantici. Il cibo abbondante e buono. La stanza per dormire molto comoda. Tutto il personale è stato estremamente gentile. Assolutamente consigliato!
