The Crown in Stockport

Very disappointing experience. Poor service, rude staff, sub standard food. Wouldn't recommend and wouldn't go back.

Another outstanding meal at this wonderful venue. The food is just fantastic. I know they win prizes for their pies and I can see why, they are the best I have ever had. ALL of the food comes to the table hot and freshly cooked and the flavours are just the best. The venue itself is spotlessly clean and well presented and the whole experience is topped off with the most pleasant and engaging staff you could ask for.

What an amazing venue! At a family wedding, Staff were amazing too, chatted to Ethan who was just one of the lovely staff members who’s service was first class, food was so nice, entertainment and Dj were amazing too

Lovely food served by happy, friendly staff. There were seven of us for Sunday lunch. We had a variety of meals including a few Sunday lunches of slow cooked beef Brisket, Turkey, Ham and the selection of three meats. Each came with vegetables and Yorkshire puddings with gravy. The meals were all perfectly presented and delicious. A couple of my guests had deserts including crème brûlée, biscoff cheesecake and chocolate brownie with ice cream. The service was excellent and overall good value. Lynne and her team did a great job.

A wonderful time with our 9 Singaporean friends feasting on our Sunday roasts. The staff were incredibly helpful, food was delicious, ambience was great. The Crown staff could not be faulted so 19/19

Brilliant service and excellent food. The waiters were kind with the children and the large room was perfect for our family get together.

We’ve eaten at The Crown on many occasions and it’s always a pleasure in every way ..but never before have we had a Sunday roast , too much other temptation! Well that changed yesterday…roast beef and all the trimmings , a great bottle of wine and excellent friendly service from all the staff . The best roast ever eaten ,it was just gorgeous. The only question remains is ..why have we left it so long !

As well as having an excellent restaurant with a great menu The Crown also has an outstanding function room. The room is very well presented and is spotlessly clean They set the room out to suit whatever type of event you are having, such as weddings, birthdays or even a wake and they offer some really nice buffets as well as special menus. The staff are very warm and friendly and they provide all the help that you need to arrange your day.

My family and friends went on Sat 3rd Feb 23 for my birthday meal, expecting it to be very good but it wasn’t. In fact the food was very poor, garlic mushrooms lukewarm and in a bland sauce, soup was lukewarm and very bland, now for the mains, we asked for steak medium rare but it came medium well and it looked and tasted like a frozen beef grill steak, the sea bass was cold and dry, the breaded haddock was so well done it was hard, steak and mushroom pie was bland, salty and the pastry was so hard it was inedible, the choc brownie was very plain, and also the Sticky toffee pudding was just like chocolate cake with toffee sauce poured over. We had already sent back the sea bass and when asked if everything was ok one person said no but nothing was done . So when we received the huge bill my husband and I complained but the mangeress just said why didn’t you tell the staff, I asked for her to take off some food off the bill but she only took off the sea bass and declined to even take off a round of drinks or starters!! I had to apologise to everyone for the poor food, it spoilt the evening and when you pay a lot of money to expect good food it’s very disappointing and upsetting. We didn’t sleep properly all weekend worrying about it , we definitely will not be going again. We dread to think what a wedding is like there!!

Atmosphere was good but food average. Garlic mushrooms were like warm. Beef stroganoff was nice but meat was a little tuff and not enough sauce so dry. Dessert was jam roll poly and custard, this was the best out of what I ordered. Couldn’t fault the service.

Brilliant food very tasty and well presented. Very attentive and friendly staff. The place was clean and well decorated. Nice relaxing atmosphere

Starter, Garlic mushrooms was only just warm. Main, steak with chips and peppercorn sauce. Steak was meant to be med/rare, it was med well, Chips are frozen chips and the peppercorn sauce was bland as if it was packet. Dessert,chocolate brownie, was OK but it was neither hot or cold. Will not me rushing back

Great atmosphere very busy.Clean and very good service. We done staff very friendly and attentive .lovely pub will be visiting again even just for a drink

Very up herself young girl taking you to our table most uncomfortable seat ever swapped she was proper put out

Well what a find! Wonderful pub, with lovely atmosphere, very helpful, friendly and polite staff. The food was really nice, especially the steak and ale pies, the chocolate fudge desert and the chocolate and raspberry tart. Definitely be returning in the future and can highly recommend it.

We were attending a friends sons 18th birthday . The food was very mediocre and then fell short . The canapes were taking forever. I was feeling sorry for the hosts who had paid a fortune for the party . Never coming back here .

Average experience after not being to the crown for a couple years. The menu is very limited with very basics meals. The chicken Skewer is £16 for 5 small pieces of chicken and a handful of chips, definitely not value for money.

Fantastic food, we have been here a few times now as moved to Marple and all meals we have tried have been amazing. Great range of beers. Staff very friendly and very helpful.

Spotless premises, nice atmosphere on entering, lovely friendly staff, 3 fantastic meals paired with lovely wine ( nice glasses) and piping hot latte and teas. Staff actually remembered the request for water for the table which is a rarity. Highly recommend.

Have been several times for lunch and have always been delighted with the food and the service. Will keep going back!

Fantastic service, very friendly helpful staff. The food was perfect. Could not find fault with anything. Will definitely be going back!

The food and service are absolutely superb - 1st class! The lady front of house is exceptionally well organised, friendly and accommodating and the staff are efficient, helpful and attentive.

Our first visit here today . Absolutely fantastic roast / soup / fish &chips / chicken / leek / ham pie . Gravy / lemon meringue pie ice cream . And to finish the best cappuccino ever 👍. Well done to all staff absolutely superb 👍

This place is a rare jewel. The food is excellent. The pies are hand made and to die for. Crunchy chips. Gravy hugs. Heaven. Walks nearby are stunning. But the customer service is just standout. Warm welcome. Attentive and responsive. We brought our old lab and she was spoilt absolute rotten. (If you want to eat without pets there are plenty of options at the Crown too 🙂) We live in Stockport, but will definitely make the trip back!

Absolutely fantastic lunch. Pies made on the premises by a true piemaster are first class. All of the food was serves hot and fresh and all came to the table at the same time. The menu is really nice with plenty of choice and reasonably priced. The premises are spotlessly clean and there is a nice friendly relaxed atmosphere, ideal for an unhurried lunch. Our server Millie was lovely and made the visit even more enjoyable. Congratulations to everyone at The Crown for achieving and maintaining such high standards.

The young waitress who took our order was lovely however:- The website describes it as an unforgettable experience…. It definitely was for our first visit ! Our main meal came but we had ordered starters? That went back our starters came but one was not what we’d ordered? On ordering deserts ( a different waitress ) we asked if it would be possible to have ice cream and custard, of course was the reply. Dessert came with just custard, this was whipped away by a very disgruntled waitress and corrected for us! On paying the bill no acknowledgment of mix ups ie sorry ? Doesn’t make you want to revisit.

Had lunch outside today. The pies used to be amazing but I think the chef who made them has left. At £15 for cheese and onion it was too expensive . The cost of ingredients would have been minimal. It was tasteless. The waitress asked how it was and I said it was not nice. She laughed nervously and asked if we wanted desserts or coffee. When I paid the gentleman also asked. At least he apologised. There is no point asking if you do not address a complaint! My husband's burger was also £15. Again it was not worth the money

The Crown is located in the Hawk Green area of Marple. The is a large car park to the rear and the premises were very well presented. There is a large outside area as well as plenty of tables inside. There were real ales on offer all from the Robinson's stable. The menu was varied and the food was cooked and presented to a high standard. The serving staff were very professional and the service was very good. Prices were on the higher side when compared to other local establishments but the value for money was OK. If you are in the area I would certainly recommend a visit.

Visited on the off chance as the Crown is such a pleasant looking pub in a nice area. Good sized car park. Recently decorated throughout, the interior was tasteful and attractive. Comfortable seating and friendly staff who can be summoned by a call button on the table. A varied menu of pub classics and a few other dishes. Service was quick and food was well presented and tasty. Not cheap, but good value. A well kept cellar and good coffee added to the experience. Recommend.

My husband and I came to visit Marple for the day. We found The Crown by chance whilst looking for a different restaurant (that no longer exists). I am so glad because lunch at the Crown was a lovely experience and topped off a wonderful day. Millie (our waitress) was an excellent waitress who was attentive, friendly, and able to make us feel right at home. The interior of The Crown is nicely lit and very comfortable. We ordered lasagne, beef and mushroom pie, and garlic and cheese ciabatta. Our food was beautifully presented, tasty and hot. This was a really lovely outing.

Food was ok . I think we hit the quiet time between lunch and dinner so it wasn’t as food as previous visits . The staff were very friendly and helpful. My reason for only 3 stars is that we was seated in the bar...

Nice food but small portions for same money as similar pubs felt a bit cheated likely so you would buy a dessert

We decided to go last minute. Made to feel very welcome . The food was absolutely delicious and way above my expectations . I had the piri piri chicken . My husband had the piri of the day I never really eat dessert but the...

Went for a meal on Saturday night for my mums birthday. We actually booked as a bit of a "pre-theatre" meal en route to Manchester to watch a show, so I did advise of this on the booking as the staff were aware we were...

The crown is special, as soon as you enter you are looked after so well. We have eaten here often, but never had the Sunday lunch. It was amazing, meat cooked perfectly, gorgeous roast potato’s and veg done to perfection. The service is exceptional, Lynn...

Good service, but food very average.Good choice of Robinson’s beers. Pleasant dining area. Would we go back again ? Possibly but certainly not to eat the pies as the crusts were rock hard, filling only adequate and gravy did not match the variety of pies...

Amelia looked after us and the food was exceptional. Gluten free Chicken Pasta was as good as i have eaten. Chicken and Mushroom pie and Fish and Chips all superb. Highly recimmended

A great atmosphere with on the ball service, all in all a great afternoon out in nice surroundings and good service.

The best Sunday Lunches, roast beef was cooked perfectly. Brought friends for dinner, all were very impressed. Thank you.

We came for lunch with our dog, had a walk along the canal first nearby. The service was great, staff were lovely with our dog and the food was beautiful Definitely need to book again for a roast dinner!

Having been made most unwelcome at our local restaurant as they won't let 10 people book we tried The Crown at Hawk Green. Well what a difference. The staff were pleasant, no problem with the booking of 10. Very welcoming and a most enjoyable Friday...

Exceptional food as always ! Gorgeous environment to truly relax and enjoy your meal. The new extension is stunning. A perfect place for a romantic cosy meal or a place to book out for your special events. Always a pleasure to be here!

Took a group of 56 people for a meal at the crown today. Everyone loved the food and the service was great. We pre_ordered the food to make things easier. Big thanks to the staff at the Crown.

Visited on spec without a booking. Shown straight to our table. Service was friendly and prompt. Food was quality and good value. Busy place speaks volumes. Loved it. Thanks

By the time my food arrived everyone else was half way though their meal. Staff non plussed when I raised this. Food was average at best. Much better eateries out there.

Took advantage of the nice weather yesterday to have lunch outside. There is a new menu and we enjoyed the fish and chips. The batter was so light. Our daughter is vegetarian and was pleased by the choice. We have gone here for years and...

Brilliant pub, fabulous team and gorgeous food. Love this place, will find any excuse to go again!! Beer garden at the front was clean and tidy with call button system which was a nice touch.

Unfortunately I can’t give a zero. Food was Luke warm and took forever to arrive, rude staff. Complete waste of time and money!

We visited the Crown for a Sunday lunch today. I must say that the service was excellent from the waiting staff. We both chose a Sunday roast of beef and mixed meat. Both were served with traditional fayre. Very well presented and tasty. Puddings followed...

A group of 6 of us went for a meal recently. The meal was fine, but when asking about having coffee afterwards, the resulting reply was "Sorry No, we've turned off the machines !!" How absurd and so disappointing. Why couldn't we have been informed...

Given that Covid restrictions are finished I do not understand why there is no drinks service at the bar? You have to sit at a table and order a drink? You then have to wait for it to be brought over and then attempt to...

Dreadful unpleasant landlady, hoping for a nice family meal but met with a rude landlady who should not be in that job. She has absolutely no customer service skills. If you want a friendly environment for a family meal DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!!! Previous reviews...

Lynne and the team always make you feel welcome - great pub , great food - would highly recommend Good food good beer always a pleasure

Everything this pub is perfect. The staff, including the manager Lynne are exceptionally friendly and go above and beyond to cater for families, children, dogs and even large groups. Customers are welcome whether they turn up after a muddy walk with their dog and just...

Probably the worst experience I’ve ever had at a restaurant/pub, if anyone you know or anyone in your family has a disability I would stay well away from this establishment, I never grew up with anyone in my family with a disability so I never...

Absolutely disgusting treatment of my disabled son. The manager should not be in a public facing position. She waited until we had eaten and spent our money to then come to us whilst I’m paying the bill and just out of the blue said… I’ve...

Two of us visited Christmas Eve for lunch and soon regretted it. Food very mediocre and poorly presented and looked as if it had been thrown onto the plates looking nothing like the images shown on the website. The menu has been the same for...

Have eaten here a number of times over the past two years with both family and friends. The staff are always attentive and friendly. The interior has a nice ambience and theres a good atmosphere. Most importantly the food is delicious and well priced.

Amazing food and great value for money. The staff are the friendliest ever. Made such a dull rainy day a fun day to come out. Thank you. X

A group of 8 of us dropped in there yesterday, unannounced, for lunch, as we'd hired a canal boat for the day. We'd never been before. It's a lovely pub and the staff couldn't have been more accommodating and although busy, set up a table...
