The Crown in Wychavon

As a frequent solo diner around all of the Cotswolds, I have frequented many local eateries and have previously stayed at the Crown. Last night I thought I would indulge myself by dining there. I had two starters rather than one main. The service was excellent, the team were friendly and attentive and the food was 1st class!! Thank you Reece, you really are a top chef, funds permitting I may come back again tonight !!

Sunday lunch was fabulous, lots of perfectly cooked meat, we had beef and pork and they came with all the trimmings - yorkshires, stuffing and sausage with bacon. Big jug of gravy and more veg if we wanted. Cosy pub with friendly service.

The pub has a new chef with a new menu so we thought we’d give it a try. The food was excellent. Good portion sizes and a reasonable price. The service was welcoming, friendly and efficient. The dining area has had a complete makeover and looks absolutely lovely with exposed beams and soft lighting. Very cosy on a dark autumn night. Overall very impressed and we will be back very soon. Keep up the good work.

We have been before. I have reviewed it well, previously, although some years ago, now. However our experience most recently wasn’t good, and not what we expected. We still like the pub and the atmosphere, but the menu was unexciting (at best) and not a match to what we had seen advertised online. But, we had a positive outlook, and our previous experiences to rely on, so we ordered from the unexciting menu. Truly it was terrible - some of the worst food ever. I couldn’t eat mine. It was just stodgy, virtually no flavour, and at a nuclear level of heat. My other half ate his, but said it wasn’t good, and in fact spent the rest of the day regretting that he had in fact consumed it. We should have said something, but honestly, I didn’t know where to start. We were very, very disappointed, and it is unlikely we will return, which I count to be a real shame.

My wife and I visited this pub for lunch today. We found it in the AA Best Pub Guide, unfortunately, in our opinion it did not live up to its billing. The Crown is a pretty pub in a lovely village. The welcome was warm and the service outstanding. Unfortunately not everything on the menu was available. My wife had fish and chips but she thought the fish was almost certainly frozen and not fresh. I had Macaroni Cheese which was short on Cheese but otherwise OK. Perhaps they were having an off day but the pub was, in our opinion, not one of the best.

The staff were more than helpful and catered to our every need. The meals were fantastic, delicious, and served to perfection. The chef came out to enquire if everything was to our satisfaction a very nice touch to a splendid evening,

Really nice ambiance - booth or table choice for Friday night (booking essential to avoid disappointment.) Excellent menu offer & very tasty chef specials - I had the Partridge …wow exquisite! Rest of party had Curry ( Chefs special ) and the Thai expertise of the Chef was in obvious evidence in a rave review of our diners! Pudding offer was excellent! 1 of our party a teetotaller so pleased to have the Corona ‘Cero’ was welcome although they could have a wider selection.

Very good stay. The staff were, without exception , very obliging and helpful . Comfortable rooms, we were all pleased and will return when in the area again.

Stayed for 1 night as a journey stopover. Pub atmosphere was good with the pub being surprisingly busy for 5pm. Food was lovely with large portions and reasonable prices. Staff very friendly and chatty. Unfortunately our room was very cold when entering (had not been warmed through)so we immediately put on the electric radiator provided which helped. Room was cold due to gap in metal windows not shutting properly. Bathroom was modern but needed a good deep clean (mould in shower) and toilet roll holder falling off wall! Room decoration was modern and artful but basics need to be covered eg no pillow or mattress protectors used.

This is a small but friendly pub serving pub grub, not a lot of choices but well cooked and tasty. We had burgers and also cajun salmon. Its a bit noisy but thats all part of the atmosphere which was good.

Very welcoming pub great service front of house.food was exceptional.staying over the room was great very comfortable clean.in all very pleased.

Have really enjoyed their Sunday lunches so we called in at the end of a bike ride on way home. We both had the sloppy beef pizza which frankly was awful. I don't normally post negative reviews but they really should not have served customers this rubbish. They had utilized some left over dried up meatballs, god know how long they had been hanging around, the 'extra heat' comprised the addition of jalapenos from a jar which tasted of vinegar, the 'crispy bacon bits' were neither crispy nor bits, they were chopped up chunks of undercooked bacon and the whole pizza was covered with a mustard flavoured mayo dressing of some sort which was not listed on the menu - if you don't like mustard this would be an unwelcome addition. I wasn't expecting an Italian wood fired pizza from a local pub but this showed a complete lack of care for the customer.

We enjoyed drinks and burgers at this popular pub. The service was warm and friendly. The drinks were good and the burgers were very tasty. Great toppings! And very generous, as were the chips! All served in a takeaway box but we ate in!

I stayed the night here in a modern, clean and comfortable bedroom above the pub. There was a newish bathroom - with a bath and a shower within the bath. Comfortable bed. Kemerton is not that noisy do even though the bedroom overlooked the road I got a good night’s sleep. Dinner was standard quite good pub food - I had fish cakes - and the breakfast was quite good: a decent choice of cereals and the option of cooked breakfast (I didn’t have this). The pub itself is clearly a popular local. Staff were friendly. Overall, a good place at a reasonable price. I’ll go back here.

Visited on a Tuesday night, found the pub full of locals at the bar and a few visitors in the restaurant area. No specials on the menu, but sufficient choice of food to cover most tastes. A good reasonably priced wine list, but we stuck to the beer, which was high quality, well looked after and a good variety. We had a beef pie and a steak, both of which came hot, good sized portions and much more importantly excellently cooked. This is clearly a good local pub, well run and welcoming to guests worth a visit

Love the beer garden, had great lunch with friends and good to see nice selection of spirits on the bar. Cosy interior, real fire and flagstones.... a proper pub!

The welcome was lovely and service was attentive. Basically only roasts were available, but then we knew that. I can speak for the beautiful lamb with a gorgeous gravy. Veg was aplenty with particularly wonderful carrots. Personally I would have preferred a couple more roasties. The grandchildren wolfed their pork and beef which was wonderful to witness. Nice place with a comfortable atmosphere.

Popped in for quick pint and packet of crisps, very nice pub and friendly staff. Food looks good so will try next time.

We were staying nearby and The Crown was recommended to us as a good place for Sunday lunch and we were not disappointed.It’s not huge so is worth booking as we did and it’s clearly popular.It’s a traditional Sunday roast menu with beef (cooked rare and all the better for it!), lamb, pork and a mushroom and nut roast. When we asked, yorkshires were offered with everything and all dishes were accompanied by roast potatoes, and dishes of veg and extra jugs of delicious gravy. The portions were all very generous. There was a starter and a pudding board but we were all too full for that!Service was efficient and friendly.Our only comment was that the plates needed to be hotter - some of the food seemed to cool down a little too quickly.Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Food was fine, service was terrible, bar staff inexperienced, waiting staff really should be trained better in customer service, nobody seemed to be in charge, we finished our mains and after an hour of waiting we went and asked for desert menu, we had to go to bar and get our own drinks and then to pay the bill, it wasn’t even busy, really annoying when staff start moving furniture around behind us when we’re trying to enjoy our evening. Won’t be rushing back.

Went for a cosy lunch on a Saturday with friends and their young son. We enjoyed beautifully prepared food, must have a great chef. Great, friendly service and staff!

stopped by for a cheeky pint at 12.30pm on a Sunday ... Bar area had very limited seating and as the eatery side was completely empty we sat at 2 seater at the end of the bar ... within seconds we were 'told' to move and go sit in the bar as the table was needed ... what would have been nice was ... hi how are you? this table is reserved so if your not stopping long .... woman was very rude, if you're not from the village and dont own a dog... then don't bother! awful service.

Have stayed in the past but just an evening meal this time, nice setting, pleasant staff good food at reasonable prices.

We stopped at this pub after a walk as it was already a bit late and we were hungry. Had a sandwich and a Cesar Salad. The sandwich was 8.95 and nothing special, accompanied by (not very good) chips. The "Cesar salad" i.e. some leaves of lettuce swimming in sauce with some croutons and parmigiano shavings was topped by a entire chicken breast. I have seen much better. Much overpriced for the quality.

Funnily enough we got chatting to the owner of this place in a local pub nearby on the day we had a lunchtime reservation here. Why were we waiting elsewhere? Well this place was packed and even parking nearby can be difficult. (As an aside the other pub in Conderton was also great and well worth trying and it must have been as the owner was eating there).

Great atmosphere and traditional pub, meal was great and staff second to none, looking forward to return

We have visited for post walk Sunday lunch, Saturday lunch, evening meal with friends and just drinks. It is a lovely, friendly pub, with a resident pub dog who is friendly, and other dogs are welcome. A 'proper' local pub which also happens to serve tasty food. Sunday lunch is excellent as are the burgers and many other things.

Popped in here after a lovely walk. Website and reviews made it look so appealing. Only one or two people in the bar, but restaurant booked out. After ordering our drinks, the staff explained that there was no way the kitchen could make us a sandwich. We left almost 20 minutes later - and there were still no people in the restaurant and only a few people in the bar. Such a shame a pub cannot make a sandwich (when empty).

This local pub was delightful in a quiet village location.The rooms are well decorated with comfy beds & the food/atmosphere in the dining area was second to none.

An excellent well run, and friendly place to stay, great english breakfast, and evening meals, and their Sunday lunch is fab, just your mum made it, really lovely food, plus great craft beers, also room was clean and functional, would certainly stay there again.

The weekend we were there the CRown offered a Brunch Menu. They coped realy well with a group of 22 of us which included 8 children/infants. Thanks

The Sunday lunch is worth leaving home for - seriously!! Had an absolutely fabulous lunch with friends last Sunday and could not fault it - the portions were very generous, the gravy was to die for, vegetables that were cooked just right, wine that was not overpriced and really friendly staff. It is a great pub with a great atmosphere. Dogs are more than welcome - booking is essential! A little far to drive for lunch every weekend but I will be back - thank you, wonderful hospitality all round.

Proper traditional pub serving great food at reasonable prices. Good selection of real ales. Good service from very friendly staff. Overall, very good and we will definitely return.

Yes, the best. Great beer, brilliant locals, wonderful staff team and the food is just plentiful and great (vegetarian and local meat). Many thanks and highly recommend.

Delicious meal, value for money, highly recommend the duck - melt in the mouth! Staff friendly. Kemerton is a lovely village.

Bredon Hill has a large selection of good quality country pubs but if you are looking for good quality ale after a walk or bike ride you can do no better than here.

Booked a room here. Didn't look much like the photo! Small, bed clean but carpet needed a good scrub or perhaps replacing. Overall rather tired and grubby. Had a meal in the restaurant and that was good. Steak cooked exactly as asked for, lovely chips. The starter of smoked duck breast was tasty but rather a small portion. Quite an expensive meal for what it was. Staff really pleasant so a shame that the experience wasn't as good as it should have been from looking at the website. Breakfast ok but not brilliant.

Stopped in to the Crown for a quick drink. Friendly welcome, clean, tidy, well run place. Pet (dog) friendly, loads of space inside and outside. Clearly a well loved pub if the photos on the noticeboard are anything to go by. Will definately come again.

This is a great English pub with friendly staff, it appears every customer is treated like an old friend with a homely feel. Its great that there are games by the fire from traditional pub fun. We went there as a family 3 generations and the landlord made fuss of my elderly mum. Food is great value and lots of it

We arrived a bit late after a long walk. The place didn't look much from the outside, but once through the door it was lovely, with a warm welcome, great food and drinks. -No "ready meals" here! The deserts were superb too. Highly recommended.

Booked lunch for four persons after a long hike in Bredon Hills.

My wife and I met in this pub 20 years ago so it's a special place. Since then we moved completely out of the area and have recently returned. Last Sunday we booked a table for lunch and have to say without any reservation the food and service was first class, no wonder it was so busy.

Regrettably the food experience was not good. That being said I will visit again as the pub and staff were welcoming and it could have been an off day. In summary the soup was ok but far too much and far too rich. The salmon risotto was far too oily and left an over-riding taste well into the following day. Sometimes less is more!

My partner and I popped in for a Sunday drink- the pub was absolutely packed which must be testament to how good the food and drink is here!

We waited patiently to be order drinks and food at the bar for over fifteen minutes but could not so much as catch the barman's eye as he was very obviously only attending to one side of the bar, serving several newcomers before us. A simple acknowledgement would have gone a long way to increasing our patience however as none was forthcoming we gave up and left.

Stopped here on local recommendation, (resident of Bredon), following a wedding at St Giles' on Saturday. Even though we were quite late, arriving at 2 pm, we were pleased to find a great welcome and a very appealing, relaxing environment.

Locally sourced food and all the better for it, an extremely popular venue so book in advance. Good value food and wine and prepared very much to my liking.Very friendly staff make this a must visit Inn

I come here every chance I get. The food is always on the money, atmosphere is brilliant and the service is perfect. If you want honest, fantastic tasting, unpretentious food you really can't do better.

As a firm believer in the community value of a good village pub, I can't speak highly enough of The Crown. It's the kind of pub that makes other villages envious. Having said this, it's definitely not a pub for locals only. Walkers, tourists, new faces and irregular visitors are all welcomed with a smile, which they invariably take with them when they leave.

We called in here for a pint and a sandwich one lunchtime.

Great food, excellent service, highly recommended. Everything we ordered was superb. Whether it was the amazing Crown Burger, Fish & Chips or Monkfish. Not a massive menu but everything was great. Staff and service exemplary.

We really enjoyed the relaxation, accommodation, food and the fine company at this lovely pub in the countryside near Tewkesbury. We can certainly recommend it.

Quirky, quaint pub. Friendly staff. Dog friendly. Limited parking. Reasonably priced drinks. Decent real ale. Reasonably priced food. Very good food. Nice breakfast- fruit, berries, variety of cereal. Cooked breakfast very good. Nice, big, airy, well appointed, comfortable bedroom, away from the main road so nice and quiet. I've been travelling around all week, staying at different places. This is the best place I've stayed for a while.

Stayed here for one night to split our journey. The pub is friendly and welcoming. the evening meal was really good. The bedroom was clean and smart. Will return.

This is just a really lovely country pub, but with added zing of lovely food and friendly service. We came across it by accident on a Saturday lunchtime, and were really taken with its charm. The food was quick and (more importantly) also good quality, and the landlord was friendly and warm.

Great food, great atmosphere a real British Pub, no jukeboxes or T.V.s just great company, great food and professional and friendly service. The rooms was clean and tidy and very cosy. I will defiantly be going back again ( night not take the wife next time as my secretary would love this place )

Looked a great village pub and the staff are extremely friendly.

Everything you could want in a country pub! Great food and a good atmosphere, the staff were friendly and the service was very good. I had the crown burger and it was excellent and so full of flavour. Only down side is it was a long walk home, but can't blame the crown for that!

First class food in a country pub.. Large portions. Great service. Great choice of beers and ciders.

A friendly hospitable village pub. good home cooked food both at breakfast time and in the evening. Bedrooms very comfortable and equipped with tea/coffee making facilities and also a hair drier. really great atmosphere. In my opinion how a village pub should be. .Would certainly go back. Congratulations to the couple who run it ,they know how to make you feel welcome.

The restaurant is situated in a pub in a lovely village and looks appealing, both inside and out. I was there with family for a Sunday roast lunch. Lamb, pork and beef are offered. The pork was deemed acceptable, the beef was only slightly overcooked but the lamb, despite assurances from our waitress, was horribly overcooked and almost too tough to eat. The gravy was the same brown sauce served with each of the three different meats. The Yorkshire puddings were not cooked all the way through. When we complained to the waitress about the overcooked lamb the manager came to our table and apologized. He graciously removed the lamb from our bill. I doubt we will return.

We eat here at least once a week and have never had a bad meal. The service is always excellent even when it is very busy. The home made chips are fab & my husband says the faggots are the best he's ever had so they must be good as he loves his faggots!! Would definitely recommend this pub for food.

I took my elderly parents here for a mid-week lunch after reading some of the other reviews here on TripAdvisor. I liked the place as soon as I walked in. It is fresh and contemporary without losing any of it's character. It wasn't bustling when we visited but it was busy enough to have a nice atmosphere. We were made to feel very welcome by the owner and the service was attentive but not at all intrusive. We only had one course and tea/coffee but we enjoyed it very much. I'm not a coffee drinker but my parents both commented on how nice it was. We will definitely be back.

We only popped in fpr a pint & to have a look at the menu having heard it was in new hands. Initial impressions were good with decent staff and excellent beers. It was all let down by some parents who had no interest in their kids who were running around making a nuisance of themselves until finally becalmed by iPads - with the volume turned up! It's a shame that adults like this are allowed in pubs - management take note. The menu looked good & we'll come back to try it out; just hope the clientele befit the surroundings!

We went to The Crown for Sunday lunch after reading a very good review of it. I booked well in advance via email. We were 10 minutes late for our 1pm table but the first thing we were told when we arrived was that they needed the table again for a second sitting... instantly making us feel like they were trying to get rid of us!

Went for a quick lunch on a Friday. Girls behind the bar were polite and helpful. The menu gave enough choice but not too much. We opted for the beef baguette which came with a dressed salad and chips. the beef was beautiful and rare (as described on menu) the chips were crispy on the outside and fluffy soft on the inside. On the whole it was a lovely experience.

I stayed at The Crown for the first time last week whilst away with work. The food was fantastic and the beer was brilliant! Service was top class and the pub has a really nice country feel to it.

A group of us had lunch here on Sunday and I can't recommend the place highly enough. Not only was the roast exactly what the doctor ordered, but the staff could not have been more welcoming, friendly and accommodating. One of the best Sundays I've had in a long time. I wish I'd tried the mulled cider though!

Brilliant Sunday roast once again, friendly service from the guys as usual. Great home cooked locally produced beef, cooked pink just how we like it with home made yorkshires Always a great atmosphere at The Crown

Our party of 12 ate here on a quiet Monday evening. My Mother in law had telephoned our order through two days before as she was convinced this would speed up the service. I'd said I would like the vegetarian pie, depending on the ingredients so she said she would ask. Apparently, the answer was are there any you don't like? She had ordered it on my behalf. I was very disappointed as the content was new potatoes and broccoli in a white sauce. Very dull! Come on, this is 2015, I expected more ( a variety of seasonal veg) and as it was served with mashed potatoes I really can't believe the filling was also potatoes.

Visited The Crown one Saturday last month with a large party of family, and couldn't have had a better experience.

If you find yourself near Kemerton you must pop into this welcoming pub... the staff are so welcoming and the food is just delicious. We ate on the Friday evening and went back for Sunday lunch - a superb choice of sunday roasts. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and the food on both occasions were excellent. On route through Kemerton with your four-legged friend - they are welcome too. Not sure when I will back in the Cotswold, but I will certainly make my way to the Crown when I am.

New to the area looking for someone to talk to and have a good beer, I found it! Great range of ales and at what I think are cheap prices. Staff are superb, the customers are friendly and so I keep going back.

Most impressed by the speed of response to an e-mail I sent to ask whether the bar was dog friendly and whether there was a garden with shade. It was the hottest day of the year so far and the dog could not be left in the car! Lee Martin replied almost at once, to confirm that dogs were welcome and that there was shade in the garden.

Friendly, great ale, looks like wonderful food, lovely courtyard...... super landlady...... cosy and will visit soon.

The Crown Inn accommodated our stag party for much of Friday night, Sunday lunchtime and a few others of us stayed until Sunday evening. As a group of friends we always try to come across well avoiding English lout behaviour and I hope this was the case. The owners were great fun, the beer was excellent and the food on Sunday was delicious. Thanks again chaps, Rich said he'd send a Guinness engineer your way shortly :O)

Heard on the grapevine that this had new landlords so we went to try the new menu. Always has a great range of real ales, and was busy on a weekday night. The staff were friendly and we got a table. This is one of the few traditional old pubs and looks the part too. Dinner was great and the lemon tart was really good. Will come here again.

I was treated to lunch at the Crown today, our first visit since the new landlord took over.the food was ok pub grub ,I had a very tasty meat pie with crushed new potatoes which made a nice change, a bit more variety in the vegetables would of been nice, just garden peas were served. when we ask to view the pudding menu our disappointment grew, there were just 2 desserts to chose from,we decided on the torte ,chef appeared to tell us this was not available and it was lemon tart or nothing basically ,so being pudding lovers we opted to give it a try.It was to quote Paul Hollway suffering from a soggy bottom.If pudding is your thing the Crown is not the place for you but if you want basic pub grub at reasonable prices it's worth a try

As part of a Hen weekend celebration we had lunch at The Crown Inn in Kemerton Village. We also stayed at the Upper Court for a fabulous weekend; they catered for 24 lovely looking hens. The food was fantastic - the chef presented the food on wooden board that comprised of a selection of roasted meats that included pork, lamb, and Roast beef, with stuffing, sausage, roast potatoes, and Yorkshire puddings. You could help yourself to array of the selection. Served separately were your trimmings, including gravy. I must say this was one of the best cooked Sunday Roast, I've had. Compliment to the Chef, and the staff at The Crown Inn. You are a credit to the Village, and the local community for providing such good produce. We thoroughly enjoyed our Sunday stroll through the Village - I am sure we will be remembered.

Delicious lunch last Saturday. Food was fresh , reasonably price and nicely presented. Staff are always friendly, helpful and welcoming.

Went for a weekday lunch at the crown and was served a pie of the day at £8.95 which was actually pasty floating on liquid with blocks of belly pork floating too... They offered no lunch time special boards or OAP specials. Maybe take a leaf out of The Bell in Eckington's book... Much much better pub/restaurant.

I was recently driving through Kemerton where I noticed a sign for a pub. I'm pregnant and constantly in need of a toilet and food so we kept an eye out and shortly came across The Crown. The pub is perfectly situated with a small area for cars outside the front, unfortunately it was full but I took this to be a good sign and was not mistaken.

To celebrate the start of spring and some decent sunshine, we decided to explore the Cotswolds on our bikes and stumbled (or cycled!) upon this little gem. Warm and welcoming staff, great atmosphere and the food was spot on. In fact, being quite a fussy group, we often struggle to find a place that offers something on the menu for all of us, but this did the trick. We'll return!

Whilst en route from Manchester to Bristol, we came off at Tewksbury and had Sunday lunch at the Crown which was only 10mins from the motorway. After some great cask ales and a fabulous Sunday lunch, we continued our journey, having heen delighted by the extremely welcoming Staff and Landlord and the delicious food.

Atmosphere good. Log fire going in the corner. Busy at weekends which is always a good sign. We have been for drinks and staff were all very friendly and welcoming. We went back for lunch and though quite good, it could have been made very good with a bit of effort. I had chorizo in my salad which was cooked just how I like it but when I ate it found it really chewy. On closer inspection the outside skin had not been removed. Once I had managed to pull it off each piece, it was lovely. On my next visit I am planning a proper meal as opposed to a snack and my husband would normally be drawn to fish and chips but the lady on the next table told us the fish was excellent but you had to be careful of bones. If this happened to him then one mouthful of bones would have him not wanting to eat it. I was also surprised that although the meals were reasonably priced, (£13 for two lunches), by adding a pint and a half of coke and a plain baguette (as no bread with salad) I was charged £7.15 which seemed a bit steep. That said I would still go there again as it is so welcoming.

Had a lovely evening last night with a couple of friends, the service was so friendly. We had a lovely meal, the burger was homemade and was so tasty. Great atmosphere, with a lovely inviting log fire. would recommend having a meal or just popping in for a drink.

My husband and I came to the cotswalds for a short stay. The staff at the crown at kemerton couldn't have been more accomadating , they were friendly,helpful and very enthusiatic with our requirments and made our stay even more pleasureable and we will definitely come again as the food and the rooms were just the added bonus

The food was overpriced and of poor quality. Breakfast was all fried, including the scrambled egg! No attention to basic cleanliness or presentation. Pub ambience was rustic and scruffy place needed a good clean.

Came here for dinner with friends ,starting with the beer a very well kept pint of Butty Bach was very welcome. Found this a very welcoming pub with friendly enthusiastic landlords. I had the sirloin steak which I asked for cooked rare, it came cooked perfectly with lovely hand made chips and a good selection of salad and lovely mushrooms. Although the menu is limited there is enough variety to suit all, better to do a little well than a lot poor, so full marks for the food.

On a recent visit to friends we called in for an evening meal as we'd heard it had changed hands. The service was mediocre. Menu was rather limited in contents. When the meals arrived they looked and tasted bland. Definitely need the condiments to add some taste. As to the price, most certainly not worth it.

We popped in during a very busy Fete for the village and we were greeted by a very enthusiastic barmaid/landlady who had more smiles than you shake a stick at.

We arrived last minute yet the chef patiently waited and served up a very filling dish. It was plaice with dauphinoise potatoes and a beetroot-based side. Personally I'd have preferred more seasoning, but that I was able to add. Service was very good and we stayed over for two nights at the Crown, enjoying excellent breakfasts and (at last for a pub) decent non-alcoholic drinks. [Tip for a thirst quenching drink: one of their cloudy apple drinks plus half a bottle of their non-alcoholic ginger beer - not ale - with ice in a long glass.]

A very enjoyable birthday celebration at Quinlan At The Crown, enhanced by lovely food and good real ale. The ambience maintains a good balance between pub & restaurant. Probably one of the best medium rare steaks we've ever had followed an excellent starter. I was told that they were happy to remove the sprinkler on the hand pump, if required (extra marks). Any suggestions? The jelly, ice cream, shortbread dessert needs upgrading to match the rest of the feast and local ales on offer would be a welcome bonus.
