The Crown Hotel Restaurant in North Norfolk

Had an excellent meal at this very friendly hotel. We had a one night stay in Wells and were so pleased we ended up here. Lovely staff very welcoming.

Had lunch here, amazing food,desert was a chocolate brownie, absolutely amazing!! really attentive staff,definitely worth a visit

Only came here for Sunday lunch...what a disappointment. To pay £21 for 1 course (or £37 for 3!!) and get hard roasties, processed meat and just 2 different vegs was a rip off. Most other places in the town were booked up, but not this place...now we know why.

Came here for dinner as a group of 4 friends who hadn’t seen each other for ages. Unhurried and friendly service with seriously first rate food - the sea bass was delicious and the chilli and lime leaf broth it came with worked so well to give it a bit of a kick. Every single meal was outstanding - including the halloumi vegetarian option. Deserts were fantastic too - the sticky toffee pudding was the special and it certainly was! Will be sure to eat here again next time we visit Wells. Thanks for a lovely evening.

We have been going to The Crown about twice a year for the last ten years and this is the first time I have been disappointed. We had a pre lunch drink in the bar and was very surprised at the sharp way the restaurant manager spoke to a member of the bar staff who ask a question. Lunch was a little disappointing the vegetables had been pre cooked and then flashed in oil when warmed so had lost their fresh flavour. The potatoes had either been on the same hot plate as fish, or put in the serving dish with a spoon used to serve fish because they tasted of fish. Absolutely not an experience I have ever had at The Crown. The final surprise was that we were charged £2 for the bread roll I asked for with my starter. Sorry The Crown this Wes definitely an off day for you

Lovely pub with a nice cosy wood burning stove and attentive bar staff.

Came here after visiting for many years and some great experiences in the past. It’s quite pricey, which we don’t mind as a treat when we’re on holiday. However we were disappointed. The service started off well but near the end of the meal it felt like we’d been forgotten about. The staff were polite but we feel we’re lacking management or direction. The food in particular was the most disappointing - the Brie starter was undercooked with little flavour, pork terrine chewy, yorkshire pudding with the roast not really edible, all dishes not well seasoned, and generally lacking flavour. This isn’t the high standard we expected and remember from previous visits and doesn’t justify the price point. Couldn’t recommend after such a disappointing experience.

Quirky hotel, good value food compared with other pubs&cafes in the area. Staff attentive and friendly. Dog friendly in the bar.

Lovely plb nice staff and allow our dog in to sit while we have a drink. Will soon return again

We didn't book but were made welcome. Food and service exceptional Everything was good. Parking,cleanliness and staff more than helpful

On my birthday we took our family for Sunday Lunch to celebrate. Our grandson a picky eater loved his homemade burger in a roll with peas and real chips. He had lashings of butter on crisp rolls too which he loved. My husband had a wonderful generous roast lamb with fresh veg and roast potatoes and a huge crisp Yorkshire pud. My son loved his cream of mushroom soup and croutons though the portion was small, my chicken and ham hock terrine with dried crispy toast was succulent. We were all well pleased with our meal and appreciated the two courses for £28. A lovely celebration. Thank you

The Crown is tucked away in a quiet part of Wells away from the harbour. We didn't stay over (hence the score for the rooms) but simply enjoyed the lovely food the place had to offer. Menu wasn't wide but there was definitely enough choice for even the choosiest person. Starter was terrine followed by the lamb which was beautifully cooked. The special cod was a bit dry but my wife loved her steak and chips. Four stars reflects the slightly lacklustre service and lack of checking in by the waiting staff, but overall for great food in a cosy friendly ambience define to recommend for Wells.

This was a great find luckily for us. Very welcoming staff and the manager was really on the ball. The food was on another level and really first class. We had a great night and can really recommend.

A lovely restaurant setting, service was excellent, quality of food was good, very good value for money, would certainly visit again when in wells

3rd visit to The Crown this year, in fact we extended it by a further day. It didn’t disappoint. The food was excellent as was the service. The copper bath was great in the sunshine and even used when drizzling! Already considering our next stay too. Thanks to all their staff for our continued hospitality. See you next year.

Recently I and my family were guests for dinner at the Crown. The food, the ambience and service were excellent. The following day we were guests for breakfast which was superb. The staff first class and Sharon is a star.

This is the second year we have visited The Crown for Sunday Lunch and it did not disappoint. From the greeting at the front of the restaurant to our server being super attentive, our party of 6 were super impressed with the quality of our meal and portion size. Thanks to the team at The Crown

Well appointed hotel restaurant with no dogs! Slightly limited menu , pricey but well presented and tasty. Service was fine. Need to book table.

Only had a light lunch at the Crown, very relaxed but caring atmosphere, lovely food well presented the location is a little tucked away but well worth a visit, would definitely return and would love to stay. Lots of gluten free options. Great place, thank you Rod and Ann-Marie Thorn

Had a lovely dinner with friends, one of our group was a vegetarian and didn't like the mushroom meal on offer but they were happy to change this and offer an alternative option (thanks for sorting this Becky).

We went here for lunch. Very nice pub/hotel in a peaceful location overlooking the green in Butlands, Wells. Staff were pleasant, and the service was speedy. My wife had the tasty garlic mushrooms on toast, and I opted for the fishfinger sandwich. Quiet and relaxed atmosphere. We're thinking of staying here in the future it was very impressive.

We had a wonderful meal here on the last night of our recent holiday. We were greeted warmly on our arrival, not rushed with our menu choices and all the staff we met were pleasant and professional. We had tempura prawns and pâté starters, halibut and chicken mains and raspberry parfait. Each dish was faultless. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed. All in all this meal was the perfect end to a great holiday.

The food was Cooke fresh and looked amazing The chicken pasta dish was delicious as was my wife’s sea bass The staff were so helpful and nothing was to much trouble- also great value

We ate here on a fairly busy Friday evening & we’re very impressed by the food we chose, the presentation & the level of service. The lamb main course was superb as was the Asparagus starter. Would highly recommend on the basis of our recent experience. Perhaps best of all the restaurant is dog free!! A very welcome factor when everywhere else in the vicinity is overrun by dogs !!! ( not everyone wants to go out for an evening to be surrounded by canines! ) Well done The Crown.

Fish & Fizz Friday is excellent value. Great atmosphere. The desserts were good quality a real treat. The staff were really helpful, Jamie was very attentive. Will definitely be back.

Dinner out on our first night in N Norfolk, across the road from our Airbnb. Nice welcome, good friendly staff who were knowledgeable about their food and wine, and generally wanted you to enjoy your evening. Great, interesting wine list with loads of choice of by the glass wines, fantastic - well done, owners! Food was good and the choices interesting. The crab bread & butter savoury pudding got a big thumbs up, but my asparagus starter was incredibly small - six short spears of Norfolk sprue, coming in at just under £2 each... and the tempura tiger prawns at £2.25 each as appetisers were also little. The (delicious) lamb rump that two of the party had was described as served with new potatoes, which it was, but just 3 halves under the meat so easy to overlook. Other portions were good - the chicken/tagliatelle was tasty and big, ditto the haddock goujons, which would have fed two! We're not in the 'if it's not hanging off the plate, it's a swizz' camp, but it still did feel a bit of a mixed bag.

We travelled to wells next sea stopped off for a Sunday lunch We arrived not booked but we were given a table went and sat down till the table was ready my husband ordered a coffee and I had a hot chocolate these arrived my hot chocolate was awful cold to strong and look like it was thrown in a cup my husband was Luke warm but I could not drink mine so asked them to take it back the lady behind the counter did not smile just said I will get you another one I said no thank you if you can not do it the first time I have a glass of water. Then we went to the table food arrived and the waitress just put it down on the table no hello how are you as you would have expected a polite smile /hello. We come here quite a lot my view is on this day both staff Bar/Waitress was unprofessional from start to finish atmosphere tense to say the least may be time to move on from this pub such a shame

Not the cheapest place in town, but probably the nicest. Friendly staff good food, comfortable and clean rooms, and excellent choice.

We stopped in for a quick bite while in town, and the service was excellent. We got to sit on the back porch with other people enjoying the sun. The food was fantastic, with plenty to choose from. Try the sausage sandwich; the fries are enormous!!

Nice rustic hotel in Wells, only had lunch and drinks, but both were very good and not overly expensive. The bar area was very busy, but the service was prompt, the barman also secured us a very nice table for lunch.

There wasn’t a table free in the competitors venue. So, we walked by and headed to the Crown. Lots of cars outside and no doubt a scrabble to park in any season, let alone March. Inside was immediately warm. The bar had a few guests within it and the bar was manned by one team member that was more than able to cope. Even with the occasional episodes created by a crashing till. We found a seat by the fire with the angry sign reading: “Do not touch the fire”. A shame really as a roaring fire (or any fire) would have been just the ticket here, even beyond the obvious warmth that was already present. We disrobed and headed to the bar we dodged our way past other guests that pickled the pathways around the randomly (if heavily) populated furniture “showroom” and made our order. Now, I personally did not order the first round and therefore was unaware of the pricing structure here at the Crown but I did get the second round and I am currently plotting a significant “job” where I can repay the Bulgarian national debt that was needed to buy two Guinness, a Baileys, a coffee and a 175ml wine and soda. (£35ish!!). You have been in this scenario where one tries to work backwards the Individual pricing… for the sake of time, letters and sanity.. I will let you do that. Whilst I plan the job regardless! In the bookcase opposite I note a tv screen that shows a rotation of arty “foodporn”. Some local pictures festooned in sepia and some very old advertising that frankly wouldn’t be allowed in the modern day. I am not sure I saw the relevance of all the slides but it filled the time as I stretched out the drinks to avoid the third abuse of one of our money holders. The toilets were clean, the decorations were good and entertaining (even the silk map above the urinal showing the local area and its war style access points). Some lights were out in the closed restaurant. I suggest a lack of 50ps for the meter were the cause. I can only assume the till was full of notes and card receipts based on my own short reconnaissance. Also, if you charge these prices make sure everything is perfect. Tables cleared immediately, chairs reset, bathrooms checked regularly and much more besides. Then the price pales a little against perceived value. Blah, blah… Hey look, we liked our visit and may have stayed longer if the pricing was inviting. However, that’s the crux of these modern times isn’t it? The venue “may” be great, the fayre “could” be stunning but if the abiding perception is about the price then something has obviously gone wrong, hasn’t it? Maybe next time..

Great hotel to stay for a one or two night getaway. Staff are friendly, nice breakfast and rooms and very nice. It’s lovely and quiet here. I’d come again.

We visit Norfolk regularly but haven’t been to the crown for a couple of years. I must say it didn’t disappoint, service good and atentive without being intrusive. We were a party of 4 and were impressed with the variety of both the starters and main courses on offer. We were also pleasantly surprised with the quality of the dishes that were delivered. Really good meals had by all. The only observation I would make as both starters and mains are quite large, not over facing, but meant none of us were able to have a pudding. Disappointing for us and maybe a lost revenue opportunity. For the crown. That aside I would wholeheartedly recommend visiting as a couple or a family.

Stayed here for 2 nights in a copper bath room and it was fabulous. The food was amazing, the room was spotless and gorgeous. Can’t wait to return.

We often visit this area of Norfolk and often have thought about dining at the Crown, but this was our first time. And it was fantastic. Great setting, lovely and inviting ambiance complete with historic flag floors and open fires crackling away, and a very convivial dining room. The staff were friendly and enthusiastic. The very varied menu did not disappoint. Food and wine were simply delicious. Complete with some very unusual options, which were yummy. We will certainly return.

Excellent, good value menu with inventive use of local produce and a great wine list. The staff were efficient and really friendly. They knew their product and obviously loved what they do. Just wish their website was pushed up the Google search list, because I'd loved to have stayed there too.

A really comfortable pub, excellent prices compared to another nearby pub. The staff were all pleasant and polite. Had Sunday lunch here and were perfectly happy with their varied menu.

A lovely evening in comfortable surroundings. Food was excellent (Sole and Lamb). Service was excellent - staff were polite and attentive to the right level.

Although it took a while to get anyone’s attention or any acknowledgement despite standing at the bar to tell them we had arrived for our 7.30pm booking, when we did, the staff were friendly and showed us to our table. We sat in the dog friendly section which was nicely decorated, with low and relaxing lighting and an appropriate volume of music. Not an enormous menu but a nice selection of dishes which we were happy with. We both chose the Crayfish Cesar Salad which was a nice portion size and one the chicken with tagliatelle with a cream mushroom and redcurrant sauce and the other haddock goujons. Both dishes were delicious and we both thoroughly enjoyed them. The sauce with the chicken was just divine albeit a little on the thin side. Ideally a little more tagliatelle would have made me happier to soak up this gorgeous sauce, but the staff happily brought some lovely fresh chunky granary bread. Sadly, we won’t have time to return to try some of the other dishes on offer this trip but certainly will on our next visit. The staff were friendly and a lady who we assumed was the manager was very friendly, full of personality and shared loads of info on the hotel, about staying there in the future and even about the ingredients of the gorgeous chicken sauce. Talking to other diners who were staying at the hotel, all had nothing but praise for the food each evening and their stay there. We were really impressed. Had a lovely evening and will be back. Thank you for such a nice evening.

After driving to brancaster decided to come back to wells and my husband suggested the Crown , great suggestion , we had a lovely early evening meal, service was very good from both bar staff and waitresses , food was delicious we had oysters to start and then a dressed crab and a very posh fried haddock in fingers and chips all very well presented..somewhere to head too for the more discerning customer.

I know it’s an eternal problem in hospitality but they need more bar staff Felt really sorry for the girl serving on her own 30 quid for two double gin and tonics and 5 attempts over an hour to get the card machine didn’t help Food looked smashing though (we’d just had an average meal at the globe and came here for drinks and wish we’d lunched here instead)

We dined here on our last night of our holiday. We had the most amazing meal. The staff were friendly and offered great service. It had a great chilled atmosphere in a beautiful restaurant. The food was exceptional from start to finish. Yes it might seem pricey but I believe you pay for quality and we felt we had it here. The oysters and crab were amazing.

Went for a drink with plans to book a meal for our anniversary. Rude barmaid who wanted to serve her friends before us and then couldn’t bring herself to be cordial and acted as if we were making her life difficult by ordering our drinks. One word answers and no service skills, obviously a change in staffing as this has always been a favourite place to visit in the past… we won’t be returning now!

We read the reviews and were a little apprehensive about requesting an outside table but this was not a problem. Really enjoyed the food, wine and excellent service. We also enjoyed just drinks in the bar on the previous evening. Would be more than happy to go back when next in Wells.

We ate here on a Sunday evening and just had main meals as we had eaten out earlier in the day My husband had the roast beef Sunday lunch and I had pan fried Salmon with noodles in a broth Both meals were exceptional Would recommend

We recently spent 2 nights at The Crown while on an independent bicycle trip around Norfolk. I was looking for a boutique hotel with a modern decor and The Crown delivered. The public spaces are more historic, but the room (Copper Bath Double in adjacent building) was exactly what we wanted -- totally modern, tastefully furnished, private patio (with great chairs for reading/lounging), a large, up-to-date bathroom with large walk-in shower. Being off the main road at the end of the village green meant that the room was very quiet, even with windows and patio door open. The room was serviced daily (which doesn't always happen post-covid), staff were very friendly. We had an excellent dinner in the dining room one night and two lovely cooked-to-order breakfasts (with buffet of cold items) both mornings. We'd highly recommend the hotel and we'd stay again if ever in Wells.

Lovely restaurant and staff very attentive after an awful experiences at The globe . Food fresh and not frozen , I would really recommended.

Arrived hoping to get a table outside as we had our small dog with us. We were told in an unfriendly manner that this establishment did not serve food outside. I was then shown a very small inside area which allows dogs. When I asked...

We chatted to Becky outside and desicded to book, and we are glad we did as the restaurant was busy, and the reason for that is because the food is delicious. We also chatted to the owner Chris who told us the story of how...

Busy market day, so a nice buzz. My husbands cheese sandwich and chips was made with a thin sliced supermarket sandwich loaf with grated cheese inside and was dry and uninteresting. Think the sandwich was 8.50 plus the chips! I was hoping for a salad...

We ate at the Crown on two occasions during our stay in Wells. Sunday lunch, which and dinner one evening. We have eaten here on previous occasions when on holiday in Norfolk. Glad to say the food and service are still excellent.

We were in Norfolk and went there in our last night for Sunday dinner and the all the food was cold, served in a cold plate, swimming in gravy including soggy Yorkshire and potatoes and all the vegetables were hard and cold also. It was...

Very very poor value for money, veg was passable, potatoes where hard undercooked and the supposedly star of the show was clearly pre packed stuff, very unbecoming of what used to be a very good place to eat. Oh and you couldn’t cut the meat,...

Sunday lunch. Starter of prawn cocktail and smoked trout salad , very nice although I couldn't taste the lemon dressing. Main Sunday lunch of beef and another with pork. Quite simply not hot enough. Roast potatoes were hot, vegetables tepid, meat cold and yorkshire pudding...

we were recommended to the Crown by a friend who lives in the area, me and my wife went for dinner, and we must say it was very dissapointing, we both had the Haddock gourjons which were no crispy , and not seasoned at all.

Reserved a lunchtime table. The menu has a terrific assortment that was broad and diverse. The sandwiches are huge! Good atmosphere, and the staff are very attentive.

Very pleasant evening, delicious food and great service. Staff very friendly and attentive. Enjoyed our visit

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal at The Crown - although the veggie dishes were a little overpriced. Staff were lovely. Atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Looking forward to going back.

We'd book a New Years Day lunch and it was delicious, Gina had the Haddock goujons and I had the mussels. Bothe we perfect! Well done the Crown, It's silly saying we'll be back as we eat there probably every time we go to Wells,...

Booked table for family outing, so easy to do on phone with wonderful staff. We were running late after visiting elderly relative, so had to call to let staff know. Was pleasantly surprised it wasn't a problem to arrive later than scheduled. Food was tasty...

Had a great evening here with my husband and teenage son - lovely service, tasty food and some fascinating books in the bookshelf, which provided us with some very interesting after-dinner conversation- check out the 1970s Blue Peter annuals!

Stopped for a late lunch at this pub/hotel and you could not fault it. The staff were welcoming when we arrived and we were served by the manageress, who was really friendly and was very kind to our granddaughter, nothing was rushed even though we...

Lovely hotel with great service as with some reviews this isn’t a cheap establishment but it’s Wells ! Having stayed at the hotel and visited a number of times for drinks/lunch/dinner have always found the food lovely and the service friendly making the atmosphere overall...

We were a family group of 12 for Sunday lunch but our table in the bay window was reserved for only 10 people so 2 people had to sit on a small round table nearby. This was not ideal and upsetting. Fortunately my husband had...

Very welcoming and a lovely building. Only two beers on tap but fab selection of wines!! We popped in for a Sunday roast. The selection was either beef or pork… The presentation was lovely. Just a huge shame the meal was of a school dinner...

We visited on a Monday night - a group of seven friends. The food, drink and service were all excellent. The starters included crab spring rolls which were superb and substantial. Mains included venison stew (lovely and rich) and a huge bowl of fresh mussels...

One of our favourite places to eat when in Wells. Menu is a little pricy but brilliant quality and generous portions, so we'll worth it. Very good service and lovely ambience in both restaurant and hotel bar. Staff always seem Frank happy to chat. Particularly...

The sunday lunch is excellent.Staff were welcoming and service was second to none.Would recommend a visit

Last time we went it wasn't good, but I thought we would give it one more try as it used to be lovely, a crab sandwich was £9, very ordinary and very overpriced, gluten free options were extremely poor (and you had to pay a...

Very good hotel with quirky , comfortable rooms and a popular restaurant. Unless you are visiting for the carnival in early August beware the noise goes on late, particularly in front facing rooms.

I always have to visit the Crown when in the area. We sat on the deck and had a lovely lunch. The oysters at the crown are the absolute best in the area (or anywhere else). Perfectly shucked and a lovely creamy texture. Husband had...

We had the Friday fish and fizz - absolutely delicious, well presented, a lovely treat. Restaurant and bar nicely done out. Staff friendly. For dessert we had the A.B.C (Amaretto, chocolate brownie & espresso coffee) and 2 Homemade chocolate truffles (perfect if you can’t squeeze...

Decent interior and seating arrangement. Had some nice drinks. Would have scored here as 4, except for being robbed on the bar snacks. £2 for a small bag of crisps (half filled with air). Come on Robin Hood!

Friendly and helpful staff and excellent food. Comfortable and spacious dining area good range of wines and a nice pint of beer

What a disappointment! The menu is uninspiring. The food was average and overpriced. Some of the staff were very rude. We won't be returning.

Visited this restaurant and hotel many times over the years but won't be returning. Location is fabulous, food ok but some of the staff have a very pompous attitude which ruined an otherwise enjoyable meal.

We had two great meals here on our recent stay, very welcoming staff who gave us a great table so we could tuck our dog Jasper out of the way! My wife had the risotto both times as it was so good, and I had...

Very lovely relaxing dining room. Staff well informed about the menu. Chicken Main was excellent- so good that I didn't have a pudding (always the most important part of a meal for me!!). Excellent service and they didn't keep coming over bothering us - just...

The food was really great, except for one jarring exception. I had a bowl of mussels so full of grit and sand they were inedible. The real problem however was the waitress arguing with me repeatedly that this was to be expected with mussels. Having...

We come to Norfolk every year and always dine one evening at The Crown. There is always a great choice and the staff are so very friendly and helpful. We had the pork and the market fish Thai curry and sent back 4 totally empty...

Ate here with friends on a recent visit to Wells. It's a very nice place and the waiting staff were very obliging (the barman was a bit grumpy though). the food is good although quite pricey.

Located at the end of a very picturesque green surrounded by period houses Very friendly and efficient service with a very good selection of gastro pub fare. We both had fish - cod and haddock - which was cooked perfectly We will be back

Had dinner here last night and was so good we booked for the next day’s Sunday lunch. Apologies to the lovely staff as I actually booked the wrong day but was all sorted quickly. Food fantastic both times with Sunday lunch being exceptional. Thank you...

We had 3 nights in Wells and ate here every night. Food is excellent, staff are friendly and prices reasonable. The ambience is cosy and welcoming with a log fire in the bar. We particularly enjoyed the vegetarian risotto and the Friday Fizz and Fish....

Cancelled our booking for a special meal on the last night of our holiday with 4 hours notice despite the booking being made the previous day. Busy Friday evening so unable to book anywhere else. Thanks for ruining the end of our holiday.

It’s okay, bit pricey, service is nothing exceptional. Been here a few times, but feel it doesn’t do anything to make us return

This is a lovely, characterful pub/restaurant and we were lucky enough to dine here on a recent visit to Wells. We started with sharing dishes of oysters and tempura prawns. The oysters were delicious but the prawns were out of this world, being meaty with...

We went to The Crown, as Wells, in October, is winding down. The local restaurants in the evening close early and many not open. In the daytime, it is a hive of activity. Nevertheless, in the evening, unless you check closing times and book in...

We have eaten here many times and on this visit we all left very disappointed. Menu was very limited for a dinner menu. Didn’t cater well for GF or DF and had no oat milk (even the cafes in WNTS have oat milk!) Used to...

We had the seafood platter and a couple of ales on a rainy day. Beautiful food, in a gorgeous setting of a restaurant. Some of the best salmon I've ever had. Have already recommended to many!

Walking from our base in Norfolk Woods decided to stop by The Crown for drinks, very nice place, all the staff were extremely helpful, recommend.

Came here for Sunday lunch with friends excellent plates of roast beef and roast lamb all with an excellent choice of seasonal vegetables. Washed down with an excellent Argentinian malbec.

Just returned from delicious Sunday lunch at the Crown Hotel in Wells next the Sea. A range of options , well presented and cooked and also accommodated a request for a roast chicken lunch, which wasn't on the menu. Charming service and reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend.

Just had a lovely break for 3 nights at the Crown.Lovely room,we booked as bringing our two dogs.All the staff were fantastic friendly,helpful and always smiling.The food was excellent cannot praise them all enough,we shall return.

The lightest freshest fish goujons ever! Really well cooked with stacked chips and nicely dressed leaves. Poached salmon dish also lovely. Highly recommended. Service friendly but not very organised. Eventually given menus but no follow up for over 20 minutes. We were hungry and asked if we could order. No bill presented, just a payment machine brought to us (we asked for the bill to review). This needs sharpening up but the food is great and good value.

The Crown is situated in The Buttlands, a lovely green 10 minutes walk from the harbour. We decided on the 3 courses for £30. Our roast beef dinner was nearly as good as mine! The beef cut like butter and the Yorkshire puddings were enormous. Lovely surroundings and friendly staff.

The manager was extremely rude, and considering the The Crown has a substantially big restaurant and was empty she turned away a family with young children.If she at least had the decency to be polite about not having the capacity to serve a small family we would have been happier to leave without a fuss.We are now in ‘The Globe Inn’ just located 50m down from The Crown which that has a better menu. The food and service is amazing so don’t waste your time with ‘The Crown’.

Four of us had a wonderful meal here last night. We had all had three courses and every dish served was incredible. This pub is top notch and leagues above other pubs and restaurants in Wells and the surrounding areas. The service was brilliant and the staff were welcoming and friendly. Can't believe that this is the first time that we have discovered The Crown having stayed in Wells many times before. Enjoyed it so much that we booked again before we left. Highly recommended - you will not be disappointed!
