The Crown in Horsham

Never been to this pub before but was looking for somewhere to meet up with family halfway and found The Crown Inn and what a find it is. Such a lovely pub with a really warm, friendly welcome for us and our dogs. The food is amazing, lots of choice. We all had different dishes, homemade pie, vegan burrito, vegan burger and steak. All of the meals were cooked to perfection and the portion size was perfect. Really glad we selected the Crown Inn as it will become our meeting point from now on - would totally recommend a visit and the homemade pie!!!

What a lovely pub. A very warm welcome, great food and wine. The building itself is fabulous and the garden is perfect for a sunny day or evening. Will definitely return.

Absolutely amazing pub/ restaurant we had such a lovely evening after getting engaged the staff couldn’t of been more helpful, the owners even gave us a lift back to where we was staying as we struggled to get a cab. Impeccable service throughout and lovely atmosphere deffo be returning!

Remarkably good. Service was good, burgers were next level considering it is a pub in the middle of nowhere. Two staff out front, over 40 people and the control never faultered. Quick, clean, professional. I only hope they are on a living wage.

We had booked for the main restaurant , having been before , it is a nice location rather than the main pub area - which is ok but as a dog friendly pub can be ‘heavy on the doggie’ On arrival we where advised we couldn’t sit in the main restaurant due to a wake. The staff are very friendly and the menu choice seemed to have changed as no roasts which have always been a great choice . We did have a very long wait - over 45 mins but the food was very nice . The fact they offer smaller meals is superb As long as you remeber it is a dog friendly place , we would recommend the Crown , resident dog was particular woofy today .

Came across it by chance and decided to go later that week for dinner. Really beautiful pub with a wonderful garden. Our meals were delicious and very generous portions. Our dog was made to feel so welcome by the staff who really were lovely. Professional and polite. Will definitely be going back and would highly recommend to anyone. Already told our friends about it.

Brilliant service and great food. Family and dog friendly with super friendly landlords who make you feel welcome.

Great ambiance and very friendly pub with excellent food. While staying in Storrington fir 3 weeks in February we first called in at the Crown for Sunday lunch which was delicious. We found the staff so friendly we made a point of calling in several more times during our stay. The friendliness of the proprietor and his family who helped run the bar was lovely and was reflected in the overall friendliness of their other customers. Having met the chef’s butcher early one evening, it was clear he was very proud and committed to the quality of his beef, so we chose a rump steak dinner the next night, which was without doubt the tastiest and most tender rump steak I’ve ever had .., beautifully cooked exactly as requested. Although we are going to be living several miles away from the Crown when we move in April, we will definitely be making to trip to eat there again.

Visited the Crown for the first time last weekend with old friends. Impressed by the quality of the food , piping hot beautifully presented and deli. Lovely friendly staff - will certainly be visiting again

We've just had our work's Christmas party at the Crown and we had a fantastic time. They were really accommodating to our needs, everyone in our group enjoyed their food from the festive menu, and there was a lovely festive atmosphere - just right for our small work do. Thank you to Natalie and the rest of the team for helping us to organise the event.

A typical local.pub relying on.the support of the locals and occasional passing trade. Food at lunchtime offers a limited selection with a friendly welcome from the bar and the Mrs runs the kitchen. Conservatory seating area, provides a selection of motor/ engine parts scattered about,unusual but could be of interest to some.

Really fabulous pub with excellent home cooked food. Friendly staff, great atmosphere and very dog friendly. Would definitely visit again if I was in the area.

Lovely staff and food very good just don’t spoil it and do not let children run riot it is perfect as it is

Booked for Sunday lunch for 1:30 - table for 3. We were shown our table and had to wait 15 mins for them to take a drinks order and then it took 50 mins for food to arrive, 2 x lamb shank and one vegetarian. Lamb shank was tough, only 1 carrot on the plate, along with four Brussels and a sprig of broccoli and 3 roast potatoes and half a parsnip. No Yorkshire with the lamb but a Yorkshire with the vegetarian. Asked whether the food was alright and we mentioned the lamb was tough and not alot of meat and response was “sorry about that”. Asked for dessert menus after 15 mins, no menus arrived so asked again. No one came to take a dessert order so we gave up. Was told by the waitress they were too busy and understaffed. Whilst there we heard two other complaints. A single gentlemen dinner complained about his beef being tough - the waitress said ‘oh we didn’t think so, we taste all the beef and we think it is fine”. Another dinner complained that their dessert was still frozen, it was a meringue roulade The chef came out and said that they just needed to wait 5 mins for it to defrost and then it will be fine. She said that as they were so busy in the kitchen they hadn’t got it out in time. Not a pleasant experience and would not recommend.

Went with my wife and two friends to their New Years Eve dinner. The service and food were excellent and there was a real buzz around the pub. Given the uncertainty over what arrangements regarding pubs and entertainment would be in force over the New Year period, it was obvious that Natalie and Scottf had planned the occassion very well and all credit to them and their staff for making it a very enjoyable evening.

Nice welcome, good food and great beer. We had the seafood platter which we could not fault. Look forward to sampling other items.

Having lived in Storrington for over 7 years, I’d avoided this pub because of less than favourable local rumours. What a pleasure I’ve missed! I know the pub changed hands before lockdown, but a decision to visit today was a revelation. Walking distance from home, a very friendly welcome and excellent beer. Lunch of a mixed fish platter for two was outstanding, top rate and friendly service and great value for money. Iain behind the bar knows his beer too! I’ve now got a new local👏👏

Cosy, incredibly welcoming, staff are just wonderful, dog friendly, delicious food! Nearby walking routes make it an ideal location for food and drink after

This pub is now under new management but is still as good as ever (if a bit expensive) I hope they keep up the quality and the service but bring the prices down just a wee bit. We will definitely be back.

We popped down from Crawley for lunch on recommendation from friends. It was over 30 minutes driving but well worth it. The location is idyllic, the premises are rustic and large. The staff were ever so friendly and attentative. The food was great, we had...

Not been for awhile but still very good value for food drinks a bit on the expensive side lovely roast dinner for £7-95 staff very friendly with plenty of parking worth a visit

It’s great food a bit over priced on some things and I think new people took over now but we left a tip of £30 as there was 10 of us and a gentleman made a comment and said you do now it’s 10% service...

A few of us stopped for lunch after a rather leisurely five mile walk - thank you to the Crown for letting us all park our cars in the car park for the morning. The staff were very friendly and a table had been set...

On arrival for coffee and lunch ordering only one person was available so it took much longer than usual and also there was no facility to state what time you would return or provide your name against your order. It all went according to plan...

A group of 7 of us booked in for lunch mid-week and we’re glad we had booked as the restaurant was full to the brim - a good sign. We were given a very warm and friendly greeting on arrival. Our choices of menu varied...

Stopped by on a cold wet day for a spot of lunch. Atmosphere ok, warm-ish but not cosy. Excellent pint of Harvey’s Best Bitter. Liver, onions and mash ok, chicken and leek pie the same. Portion size ok, just not full of flavour. One member...

Six of us dined here, we all had starters & a main course, all presented well, 3 puddings were eaten, I myself had no room left, can't wait to go back.

Dropped in on passing. Very friendly staff at a very busy time. Very good selection of food at a range of prices. Enjoyed the lunch very much.

Four seniors simply stopped off for a drink, and of course to put the world right !. Warm and cosy 'olde worlde' atmosphere, friendly welcome form the bar staff, but found it strange, that on ordering a bottle of wine, it was decanted and 'aerated'...

Excellent meal ,Beef Stew ,dumplings, veggie Lasagne delicious 😜followed by Apple pie and custard lemon merague with ice cream .Recommend a visit

Visited recently for Sunday lunch, was very disappointed! Seated in a very hot stuffy conservatory area which needs updating. Meal was average, over priced for what it was in my opinion. Sticky Toffee pudding was like cardboard, possibly over microwaved!? Only up side was the...

One of my favourites for food and drink, great quality, great service and very hospitable. There is a good selection on the menu and some great specials. Never been disappointed

This is our favourite place to eat in the area. Good food, good portions, very helpful staff, good beer selection. Nice touches like the table being laid for us instead of just having the cutlery dumped.

So, first ever time in the pub and we won't go back. Ordered a portion of chips with our drinks as we didn't have too much time. The chips were £3 sonI was expecting some good quality and a decent sized portion. What we actually...

Ticked all the boxes really: good food and beer choices, decent bar scene, pleasant staff, nice natural light in the extension. Food delicious when it arrived, plenty of it too - even the fresh veg.

Quick bite to eat on arrival at local holiday cottage. Despite being very busy, staff were attentive, friendly and keen to assist. Good value for money and ideal for families.

Busy country pub with friendly atmosphere. Their fillet steak is excellent and we have never had a bad meal there. Excellent value for money with good service. I would definitely recommend a visit.

As an introduction, I will point out this is a popular haunt; the food was very tasty at an acceptable price. I like also to compare the price of a pint of diet coke (£3.60) to a pint of the cheapest beer (£3.90 - taken...

We went with 2 small children and they couldn't have been more helpful. The real surprise was the food which was lovely. The quality was much better than we expected from a pub lunch and not expensive either. Will definitely return. Great old style pub...

Fantastic Saturday night drinks and dinner in quaint English village pub! Great and friendly staff, good cocktails and food was brilliant. My Thai prawn noodle dish was superb- worth waiting for as pub so busy. Locals all in enjoying good beer and food- loved the...

We had a very nice meal here recently - staff all very friendly and helpful and the food was excellent - plenty of it and hot.

Just stopped in for a drink after hiking with friends on the near-by South Downs. The beer selection is very good and the real ale was fresh and well served. We did not eat but the food going to other tables looked very tempting!

Very good food, home cooked, good choices and plentiful plateful. Well trained staff, wearing badged sweatshirts, nice touch. Nice warm restaurant area.

Despite there being a quiz night and the inn being packed, we were found a table in a quiet corner . The staff were very efficient and the food excellent value for money, served promptly and very hot. Drinks were reasonably priced too. There is...

A little more effort and detail could make this good beer pub into a pleasant eating location, the fish 'n' chips was terrible, dry salad, small frozen fish. But the steak pie was lovely, generous portion, hot veg and loads of meat well worth the...

Visited today 29th of August 2016, with my wife and daughter. We got there just as the kitchen had closed, but was still given a table and made to feel so welcome. There was no hurrying us, even though they we're probably trying to clean...

This is our favourite local Inn. Food is always hot and beautifully served and fairly priced. Would really recommend their fillet steak for a special meal and their lighter menus, smaller plates for mid week lunches where three courses are less than £14. Staff always...

Have been a couple of times. Food is very good, quite varied menu, good prices. Staff are friendly and helpful. Plenty of tables and space. Easy parking.

Food and staff are excellent,very friendly,best to book weekends gets very busy,lovely and clean,animals in the garden and play area for children.

Went for dinner with friends. Menu offers smaller portions of you're appetite isn't up to a big meal. Standard meal portions are big and I can recommend the steak with blue cheese sauce, and the hearty cottage pie. It's uncomplicated food done good. Staff helpful...

Martin & his team have got this pub working really well. Good traditional pub food at very reasonable prices. At lunch times you also have the choice of a smaller appetite menu which is great if you fancy two courses. Best lasagne in town

Delicious food & fantastic service. A lovely park and animals in the garden to keep children occupied. Definately be coming back.

I have lived near thhe pub for nearly 7 years and never visited as it looked rather uninteresting and on a noisy roadside location, However with the other 2 pubs in Storrington being even less enticing my wife and I called in for a drink...

Have eaten here several times the staff are friendly and helpful. You can choose either regular sized meals or from their smaller appetite menu which was quite sufficient and reasonably priced either one two or three courses. Two course £10.95 or three course £13.95 with...

We'd been very pleased on a previous visit just before Christmas and went this time as a family group for mid-week lunch. They offer different menus ( which was important to us as one of us requires gluten-free) to choose from whilst taking the orders...

We went here for a family Sunday lunch and it was our first visit. Impressed with the choice on the menu and with most main courses coming in at under £11, the cost was reasonable too. Friendly staff and we enjoyed watching the antics of...

We went here for convenience but also knowing the food was away better than "pub grub" we have visited on numerous occasions and never been disappointed with the quantities or quality the food.....well done "The Crown"

Great pub, very reasonably priced pub food, Eleven of us for my Aunties 82nd Birthday lunch. Three menus offering full lunch , smaller sized with a one, two or three course offer and a gluten free menu . A good selection of dishes to suit...

This is a wonderful pub with friendly staff, excellent food, great value for money, and plenty of parking

We visited the pub along with half a dozen fellow walkers for lunch. Plenty of atmosphere as it was very busy - always a good sign. Furthermore it was an attractive little pub with history dating back many centuries and in typical style with several...

We ate here twice on our recent visit to Storrington. The pub is very welcoming, with an interesting menu and great beer. Service is always efficient and friendly.

Excellent food, menu for small appetites, good value for money and very attentive staff, would always recommend this pub

I live in Surrey but my parents live 2minutes away from the pub. We often eat here when I do come to visit, and we have never had a bad meal or drink or anything here. Perfect for any type of meals to have. Keep...

This inn is looking very tired inside. The carpets are stained and the toilets need refurbishing. But the offer of smaller portions is appealing and the staff were very friendly and efficient. We ordered chicken curry (well, chicken in curry sauce) and haddock and chips....

Have been here at different times of the day and on different days of the week over the last two years... for meals on impulse, Sunday lunch and on special occasions . Always busy for Sunday lunch, I'd recommend booking. Good selection of pub grub;...

Sunday lunch at The Crown is a must. Service and ambience is first class as is the quality of the food on offer. A really nice typically English "Country Pub" with a well laid out restaurant section. Highly recommend it.

excellent pub food especially the homemade curry mmmmmm! pleasant surroundings too, a nice family atmosphere

This has got to be the best pub food found in the surrounding village of Storrington. Not only value for money but great choice & very friendly staff. So popular its best to book. In summer a lovely garden with lots of Pygmy goats.

Un típico bar ingles con muy buen trato por parte del personal. A very típical British pub with a very...

This small village pub off the A24 still maintains its traditional charm. Nice ambiance, good menu and real ales. Not well signposted but would recommend

Visiting within a group the food showed that it had been cooked in bulk, although there was plenty of it, so a little disappointing. The staff too many times served the orders wrongly. Outside party catering the food looked to be better, and it was...

I absolutely love coming here!!! I try and visit as much as my husband will allow!!! The food and service is great, but have to say was a little disappointed to find the garlic mushrooms have been taken off the menu!! Get those back, and...

Perfect area lovely pub reastaurant made to feel welcome food was excellent with a lovely choice and having animals in the back garden was a lovely touch.

We have visited The Crown on many occasions and have never been disappointed. The food is fantastic and good value, and the staff are always friendly and attentive.

We have lunched here many times and the food can always be relied on. The smaller portion options are good value, though they do seem to be getting even smaller. No bad thing for pensioners, I suppose! Service always good.

This is a good place for pub grub and might well be called 'The Pensioners' Retreat', rather than The Crown. It always seems to be busy at lunchtimes, mostly with the older generation, for whom they cater very well. No complaints.

Finding ourselves running very late to get home we decided to call in for a pub meal - anywhere? Not exactly the stuff of the discerning diner. But we struck lucky in a few ways.Five minutes later we would have not got a table. Add to that two large parties and we would have had to wait for our food. But the biggest stroke of luck was the fact we had chosen something of a gem.Service was prompt, polite and efficient. The menu was extensive (not always a good thing) and when the food arrived it was freshly prepared and really excellent. Value for money is spot on and there is even a decent selection of real ale. Couldn't ask for more.

Ate lunch there today.. food was average at best.. pate starter very salty, partners whitebait from frozen. Mains followed suit.. my calves liver and bacon was fairly revolting.. need CSI to prove it was calves liver tasted very strong more like pig... mustard mash had way too much mustard and was very vinegary.. chips with fish and chips tasted and looked like McCains. Mother's roast lamb was obviously cooked in a bag.. avoid. Plus points... they let the dog in. Staff were just ok but not especially welcoming.. place was very quiet and now I know why. Also watch out for prices. set lunches 2 courses £10.95 these are small sizes ask for regular size and the price goes up to evening cost.. we paid £15.90 for starter and full size fish and chips and £17.50 for pate followed by liver and bacon. I checked the signs outside which claim "traditional pub food" I was looking for a claim of homemade but there wasn't one.. maybe this is telling.

Our first visit to this restaurant and were welcomed at the door by the charming landlord! The very professional and well trained staff continued on the charm offensive with just the right amount of attention and chat but never irritating. A credit to themselves and the pub!As a vegetarian I was delighted to find a nut roast on the menu- too many pubs/ restaurants think we only eat pasta and cheese in various forms. We both had the set lunch menu which was fantastic value for money.The gardens are home to two gorgeous pygmy goats- my happiness was complete! Will definately be visiting again.

Have visit serval times and always enjoyed but went for a late Sunday roast and found the staff very lazy and the people who work there where shouting and kids running up and down. Food was nice as usual
