The Crown in Windsor and Maidenhead

It was delicious The atmosphere was lovely. The waitresses were all very nice. The food was good for its value and everything was delicious. Thank you so much.

Had a fabulous night at the quiz night. It was extremely well organised and the (preordered) food was great, as usual. The service was fantastic and we felt as if we’d been looked after really well. Looking forward to returning,

What a fabulous evening we had at The Crown pub. The newly refurbished pub is fantastic and the food was great. We tried some new starters - fish cakes and lamb shoulder rissoles with celeriac which were both superb. Salads were huge - can’t wait to go back for desert. Very impressed!

I am very disappointed at the way we have been treated. I made a reservation online for 4 people for dinner at 7.30pm on Christmas Eve. I was on holiday abroad until 21 December and when I managed to check my junk mail on 22 December I found a message saying that they had seen my booking for 7.30 but they were now closing the kitchen at 6pm on Christmas Eve so asking me to change the booking to 5.45pm. I telephoned and spoke to them and confirmed we would come at 5.45pm. I had guests arriving from Worcester to stay for Christmas. Imagine our disappointment when we duly arrived at 5.45pm for dinner to be told the kitchen had closed at 5pm. They apologised and we were lucky to find a table across the road at the King's Arms, however I am angry and disgusted. I telephoned today to speak to the manager to be told that nobody was there until 12.00. I asked for someone to ring me but nobody has. We are regular customers who live in Cookham but unless somebody gets in touch and offers more than an apology we will never go to the Crown again.

Met with 8 friends to catch up ahead of Christmas. We went for the 3 course Christmas Menu and both the menu courses and service we all received were superb! Highly recommend the Crown. The new management are doing a marvellous job at rebuilding what had become a neglected business.

Food is always amazing with Kev & Billy in the kitchen, its finally become our new local after living in the village for nearly 3 decades! 10% off fizz on a Friday as well as great service keeps us coming back!

I booked 3 rooms for Friday 17th November and they were modern and spacious. Nice welcome from the staff. Breakfast the next morning was brilliant. Local sausages, bacon. Full English was great. We're going to book for next June as we enjoyed our stay so much

Had lunch here after a very long dog walk. Very dog friendly with treats on the bar. Squid starter was amazing.... So tender with a bit of spice and the dipping sauce was delicious. All meat was tender and tasty and the service was good. Highly recommend this place.

Yet again the most amazing fish & chips ever and the tartare sauce is to die for highly recommend anyone to try it also very dog friendly

Baking hot late summer’s day Excellent riverside walk Called in for a drink Life saver So good in here Very friendly service Comfortable seating The food looked good

This pub is fabulous! The decor is beautiful. The surroundings are gorgeous. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The food is amazing. My family and I stopped for a drink in the evening and we ordered a selection of snacks including salt and pepper squid, chips and sweet potato chips. The most delicious pub food we’ve had for years! We will definitely be going back and will be recommending the pub to everyone we know.

First time here after driving past in so many occasions.Very nice place with a lot of outside space.Really good dining areas toi.Extensive menu with an open kitchen.Well priced and plenty on the plate.My wife was relieved she never had a starter.We'll be back

Excellent pub. Food was simply lovely. Best Chicken Burger I’ve ever had, great salads. Friendly staff. Dog friendly. Recommend.

Went to the Crown at Cookham for the first time since lockdown (when it was quite shabby) and were pleasantly surprised. The newly renovated pub is really smart and inviting. The staff were all friendly and efficient. Four of us had a great lunch with absolutely nothing to fault. Portions were ample and the food was attractively presented and delicious. We will definitely go back.

Stayed for a buisness trip for a week next to this lovely Pub, visited several times for dinner and the occasional drink. The staff are a testament to the establishment with them all being friendly and polite with nothing being too much trouble. The beer is great with a wide selection and dinner was even more special. Dinner was well cooked and absolutely delicious. Tried the Crown Burger which was amazingly cooked and was like a fine dining experience when it came to the quality of the burger! Thanks again for a nice week visiting in and out of the establishment. My advice to the owner is to keep your lovely staff and don't change a thing. All the best for your future 🙌

5 of us for three course meal, drinks and cocktails. Love this place, the staff are not stressed at all, the service is friendly, the food is fabulous, great variety, sourced locally where possible. Love the decor, comfortable seats, such a great night - the cocktails were bangin'. Not overpriced in the slightest - we will be back 👍

As you can see from all those older 1 star reviews this lovely pub in a prime position on the edge of the beautiful historic village and moor has had a succession of hopeless managers. At last it's under a new management team who are doing it justice with a fresh looking refurbishment, proper service and great food. We only had a light lunch but the difference since our last visit a couple of years ago is amazing. The Crown is definitely back on our list and well worth a visit.

Have been reluctant to return but with new owners, this place is a gem! Came in for breakfast with two young noisy children. Staff were amazing, breakfast was incredibly tasty and really good value for money considering some other places local charge more and are not a patch on this place. Would 100% recommend The Crown again.

This was a random visit to a tastefully refurbished pub on a weekday night out.Wow is all you need to know,it is just so impressive.It is bright and cheerful as were all of the staff we encountered.The food,service could not have been bettered anywhere.How lovely to see happy smiling staff , it creates a brilliant atmosphere Roll on some nice weather as there is plenty of outside space to enjoy and the river is just a short walk away. PS I would travel there just for the triple cooked chips !

Terrible. The landlords children running around the place and the indoors set up like a crèche. Terrible beer and really shocking customer service. Landlord wandering around in his flip flops and his pregnant wife saying “stop ducking Spraying the febreeze”. Unclean, there were fruit flies everywhere. It such a shame to see such a lovely Establishment run down this much. Someone get rid of these people!

Coming from Maidenhead I know the Crown well...Now living out of area I always classed the Crown as a safe bet for good food and pleasant surroundings when returning for a visit... Called in for a pub lunch before a long drive home, we were handed a beer stained tatty menu with several dishes not available. being short on time we ordered anyway. to say poorly prepared would be an understatement and clearly very cheap ingredients used. Before leaving the I popped into the toilet, if I had of done this before ordering I would have walked straight out...It looked like toilets hadn't been cleaned for weeks along with the bar floor. I would advise to steer well clear until The Crown sorts it's act out and returns to the standard we expect of Cookham

Went for drinks on Sunday which was a lovely sunny day. What has happened to this once busy pub. Service was slow even though there was hardly anyone there. Won’t return.

We ordered two drinks and some food, when we got the drinks one of them had something floating in it. The mens urinal smelt like they have not been cleaned for months. The food we ordered some sandwiches which looked like is done by a...

We visited this pub today and I wish we hadn’t bothered. We arrived about 1sh and the landlord was already telling customers that they had run out of lots of food on the menu. A few mins after we queued for our drinks (only one...

Booked for 2 nights plus paid extra for breakfast. Ended up leaving after 1 night, no breakfast as choice was very limited. Very upset with accommodation standard and landlord abusive!

We arrived and got shown our room . The outside area was very untidy and overgrown with clutter outside But hey we were only staying a night so didn't complain. Room was fine with nice fresh bedding and towels and in my opinion a comfortable...

Smashing pub, with best location in Cookham. Fish and chips absolutely superb, and recent service from “Kate” (?) was of the highest order during a busy Wednesday evening shift. Will definitely return. Ignore many of the reviews on here!

Beautiful location and good music but shame about customer service. Was charged £6.40 for two pints of blackcurrant cordial and soda water - having spent £1 for the same drink the day previously in Henley. Also spilt a drink having just bought it and they...

Very nice owners who were very helpful. Unfortunately I would never stay again as there was quite a lot wrong. The positives: a great position in central Cookham close to restaurants, the train station and the river. The bathroom in my room was clean as...

My husband and I and two of our friends stayed overnight at the Crown as we were attending a party in the village. We were very underwhelmed. Pub looked tired and grubby. In the room, the light over the bathroom mirror didn't work (neither did...

Stoped here for lunch with my 3 children and was extremely enjoyable. The service was fast and food delicious. The landlady and her partner was really friendly and come over to talk to the children etc. I will defiantly be returning here to sample some...

My friends and I came to the crown for a drink, we ordered our 3 drinks with the waitress and waited for them to arrive. After waiting 45 minutes we went to the bar and politely asked if they would be coming out soon to...

Dropped in for a late lunch and was not disappointed. All the Covid risk management arrangements were being adhered to and we felt able to relax and safely enjoy a decent pub lunch ‘out’. Our first, since March 2020. The serving staff were friendly and...

Dropped in drinks and bar food at outside tables. The waitress was far to close to us in serving food- within a couple of feet with no mask or visor. Felt really uncomfortable. Difficult to complain with family members present as seems like paranoia. But...

Popped in for a pint so this is somewhat of a minor review but nevertheless good awareness of distancing requirements and a decent pint. Not sure what the food is like but may well try that on the next bike trip.

We have had a wonderful stay food accommodation both first class staff very polite surrounding area has some lovely walks by the river we will definitely be back very soon

The pub has recently got new managers in. I must say the new couple were extremely pleasant. There children are right little characters too. I’m really glad me and my partner decided to give the pub another go. We had a really lovely family Sunday. The food was great quality. Really nice and fresh. I had the roast beef, my wife had the homemade steak and pie and the children had mini fish and chips. Couldn’t fault it. The new guys are not from this way but you can tell they are really trying and want to make the pub a success and given time, I think they just might!

Myself and my friends were out for the evening in Cookham, when we arrived at the Crown it was empty and there was a unpleasant smell. We got our very over priced drinks and sat down. A few of us went for a cigarette and made a joke about the smell in which the bar maid stuck her head out the door and said ‘you can finish your drinks and F*** Off’ We went back in side and finished our drinks when the landlord came downstairs and also told us to ‘F*** Off’ Im shocked how disgusting the staff were. Such a waste for a nice pub to be run by such horrible people. Last time I will go to that pub and I will continue to tell people to avoid this place.

Visited Friday evening at 5.30, not one other person in the bar. Decided to order a drink and took a seat. Awful ambience, all the lights fully on, dreadful background music, bar area felt cold but the fire was not on, table was sticky, the whole experience was poor. Left as soon as I finished my drink. There are 8 pubs to choose from in Cookham and in my opinion The Crown ranks 8th!

Had a nice time following a business meeting . The lady who worked there made us feel welcome. She was very down to earth and I enjoyed the visit. Beware, the toilets are freezing cold

Pre booked a table for 11, parked in car park went for walk came back to pub for a drink before sitting down to eat. I knew as soon as I tried to order drinks that there was likely to be issues eating here. For a pub in between Xmas and New Year to have no ale at lunchtime - one of which is sourced from the excellent Rebellion brewery not 5 miles away - was a portent for things to come. Had it not been a family get together I'd have walked away at that point. I offered to go there and get a a keg for them, to which the answer was "yes please if you could that'd be great" To lunch. Sat at table, and then waited 30 mins for order. Post order, another 30 mins for food, plus about 15 mins between first food arriving and last food arriving, The 12 inch pizza arrived as 2x7inch "we didn't have a 12inch base" (i.e. no frozen 12 inch pizzas in freezer), my own "deluxe" burger was dry and over cooked, and generally the whole thing was a bit of a shocker. I did complain, along with others, who it seemed had been waiting an age for just chips for example, and was given a 15% refund. Not enough in my books, but at least some remedy. However, I would caution all that decide to eat here. Everything is done on the cheap, but charged at a premium. Oh, and don't expect any heating. The manager / owner told me she owned the pub but if it is owner managed, she doesn't know how to run a business. My advice. Avoid.

This pub has so much potential and it’s such a shame that the owners aren’t capitalising on this.We stopped for a quick drink on a Sunday afternoon after a winters walk.Firstly, the fire wasn’t lit, which was a shame. There was also a drain/bleach smell which got stronger near the toilets. It was quite unpleasant and I was glad that we weren’t eating.The table was also sticky although had obviously been cleaned prior to our visit. The mismatch of chairs doesn’t work. It isn’t quirky and just looks a mess. The smell needs addressing, as does the cleanliness of the toilets. For a Sunday lunchtime in December it was worryingly empty. It’s a great pub but they need to up their game if it’s going to survive!

We had a lovely Friday lunch here after a 7 mile countryside hike. Lovely menu and the lady working was friendly, attentive and very helpful. Quick service, delicious and fresh food. Nice ambience and welcoming atmosphere. Hadn’t checked out any reviews before our visit but really surprised, now I have, to see a number of negative reviews. Appreciate it depends on many factors including day and time of visit and personal opinion, but our experience was all very positive and we’d certainly come back again!

We went for a drink here today. Everything about our visit was bad. It was expensive, the service was slow, it was dirty and the seats and table were all falling apart. How is it possible for a pub to get it all so wrong? Mercifully we weren’t eating. There are loads of other pubs in Cookham. Choose any of the others, but avoid this one.

As a local we have given this pub many chances because the location is so great, especially in the summer. Sadly we are always disappointed one way or another. Visited yesterday for an evening drink, there was one waitress and one bartender. Service behind the bar is always so slow, the bartender had to go down and change the lines for 5-10 mins. I tried a different beer to last time as the last one was flat and had to be returned, however the other beer was flat also! Stacks of empty dirty glasses line the bar, and the waitress walked around for 5 minutes with the same pizzas trying to locate the people who ordered them - and the pub was barely busy! This could be such a great place if they put the effort and more staff in!

Visited on BH Monday looking for initially a drink to decide on where to go for a lunch. Friendly and helpful so looked at food and decided to order. Tables sticky and when ad used staff was given a cloth to wipe down ourselves. Not great customer service so did make us a little concerned re our food. Waited a considerable time but when arrived was generous and good quality. Perhaps a little more customer service detail required as took ages to clear adjoining tables although not overrun with customers .Suggest a little more focus on food areas to manage more efficiently.

Tried this place for an early evening drink whilst staying in Cookham recently. Friendly service and no problem getting a table in the bar area. Decided to have some dinner as well and chose Scampi, chips and salad from the specials board. My food was served promptly after ordering and was well presented. I thought the food was okay, nothing special and after a while it all became a bit heavy and stodgy.

I couldn't rate the pub because we didn't stay. We thought we wanted a pub lunch with friends yesterday; used to enjoy the Crown in the past but on this day, we left without ordering. The place appeared to be under new management...balloons, notice on the chalk board, etc. But it had no warmth, even on a rainy afternoon, without a fire going and feeling chilly throughout. The table where we sat with a drink was sticky all over. Uncomfortably so. The back room had chairs stacked up; all the other alcove rooms were just bare, cold and dark. It had no atmosphere at all. We made the decision to eat elsewhere in Cookham since this is a wonderful little town for pubs. With competition fierce, it's a mystery why the Crown doesn't do something to warm up its interior, clean the place and make people feel like they want to come in and stay awhile. Won't be returning.

Not impressed with the cleanliness of the restaurant/bar area. Table needed to be cleaned well the cloth used should have been in the bin . Food very disappointing Cesar salad most expensive bowl of lettuce I have had. Will not be returning in a hurry.

Really good pub lunch. 4 of us had totally different meals and all were rated 5 star. I wholeheartedly recommend the baked Camembert. Service friendly and good.

I stay in this area often but this was my first stay here. It’s a good pub in the centre of a great village with the rooms at a bit of a premium due to the location. The rooms are clean and well maintained although I did clock the low mattress when I walked in. The rooms look great but I was disappointed that all I got for a £100 was two mini soap bars as toiletries. Fortunately I had brought shower gel with me. The worst bit was the bed which had a hard and lumpy mattress despite having quality pillows and duvet so was very difficult to sleep on. It was all a bit odd. The pub was fine: service was good but they’d had a problem so it was full of smoke so my clothes stank of it. Decidedly average but I just visited on a bad night.

This place just has so much potential. It could be so very warm and welcoming. But it’s not. It always seems chaotic .

We went out for dinner as a family on a Saturday night whilst staying in Cookham with no reservation and the Crown was the only place with available seating for a party of seven in the whole High Street. It is situated at the open end on the High Street and looks very inviting. Outside amenities would make this a great summer venue, overlooking the Green (moor?) - which would be uniquely pleasant at that time of year.

Service always friendly . But cleanliness and maintenance are not good. This place has great potential but needs better management

We often go for walks around Cookham, with lovely river and hill walks giving you the opportunity to take in breathtaking scenery. The Crown is then a must for a beer, bowl of chips, soup or main meal. It is a lovely place to sit and take time out and the staff are professional, but also very friendly. Tom served us and he was so chilled but also dealt with us really well.

We booked in advanced for Friday night, but there was no need as the restaurant area was quiet. It is nice pub and restaurant, and it was pleasant to have our conversations because the music wasn’t too loud and we practically have part of the restaurant to ourselves.

This was my first visit to the Crown, we were a party of 14. Drink selection was great with a good pint of rebellion on offer. Service was great both at the table and from the bar. We all had a selection of different dishes I personally had the burger which was fab. Food was all served in good time. Two of the guys had the vegetarian option a green curry, although they didn't dislike it they commented that it was a bit watery, but OK. Some had puds which all went down well.

Decided to try somewhere different for a change after a recommendation about the chef at the Crown inn. Turned out to be a great decision, the food can only be described as exceptional, and the price? Well that was a shock because it was so reasonable. The bar and service staff were also excellent. Will definitely be going again soon, looking forward to the winter menu.

We are regulars at The Crown and happened to drop in on Monday evening for a couple of early drinks. We noticed the introduction of Steak Night on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays so were tempted try what all the fuss was about as it was really busy and the steaks looked amazing. We weren't disappointed and would have expected to pay double the £12 that we being charged for the steaks we had in any other restaurant. We both had the desserts as well which were only £3 when ordering the steak - the biggest cheese board and chocolate puddings beat us but left us very satisfied.

Very friendly staff but filthy cuttlery, less than mediocre food and for that hopelessly overprized - even for a tourist hot spot. Please improve!

Just had the most amazing lunch experience, wonderful happy staff, great location and delicious food. The Thai Fish cakes where outstanding and the salad that came with it so tasty and refreshing. The dessert orange and cardamom with white chocolate bread & butter pudding with ice-cream was to die for. Left a very relax happy couple.

Stopped by with friends for a drink friendly staff. It's generally busy for drinks due to its location a short walk from the Thames.

Disappointing. Staff were great, timings were good, atmosphere was nice, but the pub was filthy, with sticky drink stains and dead flies all over the window sills. Our table was also really really sticky from years of use and could do with being re-varnished. There were a lot of staff on, which was great as it was clearly the reason service was efficient, but perhaps one of them could have run a cloth around. The food, although absolutely fine, did not warrant the price tag and was on the whole just “fine”. - I resent paying £11.50 for 6 slices of beef tomato and some mozzarella, but no point complaining as the staff don’t set the price. So all in all, friendly staff, but price point is way off. Perhaps better just to stop for a quick drink next time...?

Uninspiring menu. Ordered quite late on a Friday night. Took a while to come. When it did it was actually fine. On the plus side it was cheap. However will eat somewhere else for a bit more choice of menu.

It is interesting to see that others share view about the quality of this pub.

We were staying locally and were looking for a casual, relaxed evening meal and the Crown was recommended. We'll we nit disappointed, lovely local, friendly and the best burger we have ever had by far and for burger lovers out there one nor to be missed! Order their all steak burger with the full works and expect to be delighted :)

Okay new favourite restaurant for us. Service was fantastic. Very attentive and friendly. The menu traditional but very well done and good value. Food was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Well done everyone at The Crown!

Would recommend this restaurant/bar especially after a lovely walk in Cookham. Good menu choice, fresh food and quick, courteous service. Plenty of outside tables so you could take your dogs

Booked for a Sunday lunch and on arrival were greeted with a warm welcome. However the menu was a bit odd with light bites and just pizzas and burgers and not what we were expecting from a pub menu. There were a couple of specials but still not much variety. Luckily as it was Sunday they did roast chicken and beef, so we ordered these. The roasts were very good with good portions, great roast potatoes and vegetables. Our waiter was a great young guy very friendly and attentive. We had a good meal but not sure we would return due to the odd menu.

Ate here with 9 colleagues this week. The menu is pretty simple but there are some gems. The steak and ale pie was delicious and their fat chips are also very good. Also the starter buckets are worth trying, especially the whitebait. The bill for 10

I/we were a bit disappointed in the limited menu but understandably it was late'ish on a Saturday night, overall a good experience and the 'Crown' itself is warm & friendly place to visit...

Pleasant location in Cookham over looking the green. Plenty of out door benches. Smart and comfy inside, friendly bar staff. Food over priced and under quality. Steak and ale pie okay but chips and peas lacked quality. Pizza was pale and tasteless. Mushroom gary wax was in fact a pancake.

The service was excellent. Warm welcome, incredibly efficient and pleasant waiting staff who were both attentive and made you feel, quite genuinely, at home. The food itself was good, if not spectacular. The beef was tasty, if a little fatty, the roast potatoes were similarly good, although could have done with a bit longer in the oven. The yorkshire pudding was excellent, and the gravy very nice. Others in our group had pizza (6/10), a decent topping if a slightly chewy base.

We stopped in for a quick coffee while out walking (there are many pleasant walks nearby). The welcome was warm and friendly, the coffee was good, the service was prompt and the price was reasonable. A bonus is the bar area is dog friendly so we were able to sit inside with our dogs while drinking our coffees.

Staff were great - I have to say the poor rating is nothing to do with them. The waiter and waitress could not have done more. They were balanced and attentive.

Really nice gastro pub with friendly professional staff. Good choice of food. My wife had cod wrapped in smoked salmon, I had beef and ale pie. Both of them to die for. Can't fault it.

We met friends for a meal last night. As we have a cocker spaniel, we had booked a table and got a lovely private space behind the fire. The service, as well as the food knowledge, was brilliant. Kelly was well up to speed on both the food and drink menu. The food was excellent. Nothing overly fancy, just great well cooked meals. Congratulations to Greg, the chef. This was the second meal we ate here while on holiday and wish we could eat more often. The pub is beautifully clean and well decorated and the staff are excellent. Nothing is too much trouble and they are very friendly. Well worth a visit.

Just moved into the area and have visited the crown a couple of time. It's not a village pub where you go to meet people but it's a nice pub and the staff are all very nice. Had dinner there the other night and they had no issues to me changing the chips with my meal for mashed potatoes. The steak and ale pie I had was very nice! If you passing and want a drink and/or food then I'd recommend the crown. And if you can't park in their car park the there a free car park at the other end of 'the moor' which is a very short walk. Well worth a try and the Thames is a short walk away too

It's good; just not amazing. I was actually a bit apprehensive after some of the reviews I read; but I shouldn't have been.We had a very reasonable lunch; the salad was particularly good. Room for the night was quite small; but not small considering the price with a large bathroom. Breakfast was really very good. The pub itself was really nice and the London pride was great. I would definitely recommend it.

Lunch for three, limited menu, long wait, good food. We will eat there again but not one to make a special trip for.

Hubby and I dropped in on our way from work last night and enjoyed meeting Andy, the crown's new chef.The steak pies were excellent - they have not taken them off the menu which has been drastically reduced.Nice, as always to see the lovely Kirstie too.Thanks for a nice supper. It was a nice way to end the day.

It looks great and it's in a great location, but there the plaudits end. Small selection of beers, very pricey food and limited menu (although the steak and ale pie was good), and very smelly toilets. The extractor fan in the gents was covered in thick greasy dust, so I don't think much thorough cleaning is done. Using the facilities is very unpleasant. Some staff were friendly, but some made me feel I was interrupting them.

2nd time I have visited in the last year and I was pleased to be looked after by the wonderful Kelly again! Always very professional and passionate about the food adding personal recommendations - and she never lets my glass get empty! I will most certainly be back! The Calves liver is a must try cooked to perfection.

We had breakfast on Sunday morning and it was lovely: really good sausages, bacon and black pudding, friendly staff, and a nice pub.

This place used to be fine for lunch. Since it's been taken over the menu has changed for the worse. All the items on the menu are either deep fried or incredibly unhealthy. The staff look like they need a good bath. Poor attitude and very unhygienic - we both were up all night with sickness and bloated stomachs.

Had been for a walk alongside the River Thames and stopped here for a drink. The range of beers was good. Service was friendly and efficient. We sat outside in the sun, which was very pleasant. Overall a very good visit. I can't comment on the food but the food being eaten by visitors looked good.

This was a welcome place to rest weary feet after a walk along the Thames. The pub is unattractive inside and out but it does have a nice view over grassland from the courtyard garden. Friendly service and a surprisingly delicious light lunch, a sort of flat bread with a choice of fillings, good value at £7. My pint of the Crown's own beer was full of dregs and had to returned. If I was in Cookham again, I would seek out The Bounty right beside the river.

Happened to be in the area, so not a planned visit. Pint of lager and bottle of cider £9.75! Sat outside, ordered food, nothing on the menu that was Sunday lunch related, and nothing in the chalkboard inside regarding Sunday lunch, so assumed that it was available. Ordered a Crown Burger and BLT. The burger was not cooked throughout and a little too pink on the inside, the chips were just awful, not crispy on the outside, just soggy with oil, they were left. BLT OK, but bacon was quite salty......

Came here for dinner with a friend, ordered the Gluten free based pizza - served under cooked!! Asked for another one in which they served the same pizza again, still undercooked and had been thrown back together on the plate (quite literally). Sent back again! Meanwhile my friend had already finished her food. I finally did receive a pizza which looked much better. Wish it didn't take so long.

Been hearing about this amazing Italian night on fab and was keen to try it, sadly the base of my pizza was black, half the toppings were not on the pizza that we ordered, the base sauce was poor and there was not a hint of oregano as suggested in sprinkles in the menu. I don't mind eating pizza with my hands but one should not assume everyone feels the same. Jolly farmer know how to do pizza suggest you talk to them.

This pub is very friendly. Varied menu. Good service. Food is very tasty. Light bites for lunch. Good for families too.

Came here just before rocking the moor for what we hoped would be a tasty reasonably well priced meal. Once through the gates these festivals have you as a captive audience.The pizzas were delicious - we chose one with mushrooms and truffles and it was outstanding with an excellent crispy thin base. Also ordered the Spaniard which was very good too. We ordered too many fries but apart from that - hot and salty!Highly recommend

Last minute decision for lunch. We used the sandwich menu good sized portions, selection of real ale. We returned after about 18 months still pleased with the food. Planning to go back again as part of the dog walk.

The cost of staying at the Crown is unreasonable for what is provided. One should not have to ask 3 times at the Bar before soap is provided, The cleaner said she'd ordered it but hadn't got any. Worse than that was going for breakfast on the Saturday morning at 9.3o (breakfast was from 9 -- 11) to be greeted ny a young waitress asking if we would like a drink as the chef hadn't arrived! He appeared at 9.40! Then, when ordering breakfast we were askes if we wanted our cereals AFTER our cooked breakfasts! I wasn't overly impressed by a notice on the dressing table saying that in the event of the alarms going off during the night to ring a given number. On checking out you are not given a detailed bill of what yu have spent so you have no way of knowing if it is correct. I would never go back!

We popped in for a Sunday meal and wish we had not sadly. The table tops are sticky from either under-cleaning or in desperate need of resurfacing. Our group was seated promptly, although there was no reservation on their book, they checked their computer and there was.We were handed our menus and the waiter explained everything not available, which for Sunday seemed a little weird.My food came, and the peas were very slightly cooked, the meat in my wife's was still blue/bloody and cold in the center. My wife's meat was sent back, and the meat that returned was not the meat that left, but still it was better (than nothing). The meat's gravy tasted like corner shop Bisto.There's so many disappointments here, cracking location, very good staff, but let down completely by shoddy kitchen we'll not be back. Ever.

Freshly cooked good food with some interesting choices for vegetarians. Very well presented dishes and the breakfast is freshly cooked to order.

Great Service from Anna, she really looked after us well.The Steak and Ale Meat Pie was good value. Hubby ordered Cod and chips, he enjoyed it but said it could have been a slightly thicker portion - mostly batter.All said and done, it was a relaxing, enjoyable lunch experience and we will definitely be returning and recommending the dining room to our friends.

We had a double birthday celebration at The Crown and our waitress/manager, Anna looked after us from start to finish. She couldn't have done more to make the meal a more perfect experience!! She made us welcome from the very start and ensured that our orders were taken swiftly and that the food was delivered to us without delay. She gave us the personal touch, with a mixture of warmth and professionalism that makes her an asset to the pub!! We loved our roast dinners, both the chicken and beef, and other people had the Thai chicken and steak pie which was equally yummy!!The location is magical with gorgeous views of the village green. We will definitely be coming here again and will be recommending it to all of our friends! Thank you Anna and the team for a truly unforgettable birthday celebration!!

I recently went to the Crown for an evening meal and what a pleasant experience it was! We sat by the open fire and enjoyed 3 delightful courses and we were looked after by Kelly - what a credit she is to the Crown! Every need was catered for and she was so welcoming and friendly - we will definately be back soon :)

Visited the crown with a group of friends last weekend and was a tiny bit worried because of seeing the reviews on here but was pleasantly surprised. We really enjoyed our time. Friendly staff and had a lovely meal. Good portion sizes, fair prices and good beer! Thank you to Tom and his staff for an afternoon which was exactly what we wanted. From our visit some of the comments on here are very surprising!!! Keep up the good work.
