The Crown Inn in Cheshire East

Went for Sunday lunch. Excellent food , well cooked and nicely presented.

Landlady lisa is a fantastic host,along with her partner stu,.I am one of the staff and we are all friendly approachable and offer a high standard of service to all our customers young or old,,xx

Good selection of drinks. Friendly management, staff and customers. Great entertainment .

Nice pub, only downside is the blue wall hangings 🤣. Nice pint and dog friendly.

First time I'd visited The Crown as there was a band on I wanted to watch. The staff were really friendly and very accommodating, they had a few 0% options and there was a friendly atmosphere. Big spacious pub with really lovely toilets!

The person serving me was nice, helpful, and informative. However, the bartender next to her seemed really annoyed/unresponsive due to something, and I unreasonably took that personally despite everyone else being nice to me. That lead to an undeniably odd review that I’ve since retracted as it misrepresented myself, and indeed the business. Gotta love the demon drink, right? Incidentally, the beer garden was limited to one table when I visited but that was nice enough on a dark winter’s night, and it had one of those outdoor electric heaters with a button that you could press to keep yourself warm. Much needed on that cold, bitter night

The crown pub is the best pub in bredbury really friendly great live music. Staff are amazing and are always smiling and dancing. Definitely keep going back there and I definitely recommend anyone to go in the crown

hands down best pub ever so welcoming and caring to all people that walk in, lovely inside best staff as well, you couldn’t ask for more it’s perfect xx

Best pub hands down in the area only pub I feel comfortable in due to the fantastic staff and great atmosphere everyone is so welcoming! Music on every Friday and sat never any trouble prices are decent and great selection of drinks love the place

Best pub in Bredbury, lovely staff and great choice of drinks

A fantastic local community pub which is well ran by the landlady and landlord. Never see an ounce of trouble. The staff are welcoming. And one of the few pubs in the area keeping live music going with acts on every Friday and Saturday night - 5 stars from me!!

Stu and Lisa are some of the most down to earth people I’ve met. The minute I walked in the door I was warmly greeted. Came in for the city game, plenty of people cheering on and having a laugh. The half time food was a spicy pasta, gorgeous it was !! Will defo be returning. Thanks Lisa, Stu and staff.

A fantastic family pub, great atmosphere and friendly. Mega busy with football but never any trouble. Live music every Friday and Saturday, all live football games. Friendly, helpful staff including Lisa and Stew who have recently taken over and are doing a great job. All in all, a brilliant pub 🤩

The Crown has a fantastic atmosphere, every time you walk in you receive a friendly welcome. The staff all work very hard to ensure all customers are treated with the upmost respect. The entertainment is always top notch and we always have a fantastic night at the Crown

Good old pub football, any sports

They had goid live music, it was busy but not overcrowded. The Boddies was on top form. The service was good considering it was busy. Overall a very pleasant experience.

Great pub reasonable prises and a great atmosphere, Friday and Saturday live bands brilliant

Top night with top friends. Good band and top landlord.

Great night Brilliant artist (Carlo Sax)

So sad another one bites the dust, unfortunately closed as it is being redeveloped. Probably back to housing.

Friendly place. Good atmosphere

Very welcoming pub hidden away in Bollington. Been here twice now to eat, and on both occasions the pizzas were as good as any I've eaten anywhere. Really can't find anything to fault, so it's five stars from me.

We came here for lunch on New Years Eve and the food was lovely! The Pizza's were delicious! The bar staff were so welcoming and friendly even helping us out to find out where the fella's could watch the football the day after. They went above and beyond. It's a really nice pub, would highly recommend

Nice friendly warm atmosphere and nice staff

Called into this pub whilst on a weekend visit to the area.Good ales served here and a warm welcome. Food is served although we were only their for a drink. Looks like pizzas could be very popular choice. Dog and child friendly

Stopped here for lunch, Service was spot on, very welcoming and friendly and the food was wonderful, thank you

If you love the micro brewery culture and pizzas then walk down the back streets of Bollington and discover this little Oasis .Lots of care and attention has gone into making this a family friendly pub , with outstanding Happy Valley Beer and perfect Pizzas .Worth a visit just for the Beer , add the fantastic Pizza and it makes it a definite place to visit .

Good ales (Always some Happy Valley beers available) & good food (well known locally for it's pizzas, but does much more too).

Great atmosphere great night, watching live music can't beat it .

Went for lunch here, the staff here were the rudest! Not one smile to welcome you in the pub and on leaving and saying thank you they were all sat around staring and completely ignored us. Food was good shame the staff ruined it will not be returning!

It was our first visit to The Crown, in Bollington, since a new team took over in December.The menu featured a five-bean chilli – but since I went in search of the perfect chilli – and in the process discovered Heston Blumenthal’s recipe – I’ve been consistently disappointed by restaurant offerings.So, as this was The Crown, not the Fat Duck – I decided to try the Jerk Chicken. I wasn’t expecting too much – I was wrong, boy was I wrong.Now any chef can chuck in the chillis to crank up the scovilles but without the right mix of spices and flavours you’re just heading for a blistered tongue and disappointed taste buds.To be very honest the jerk chicken was hot as Hades – and certainly not for the faint hearted – but the flavours were a revelation. Accompanied by some perfectly cooked wild rice I was almost in spice heaven.She who must be obeyed had the same – and was equally knocked out. Two of our friends shared a huge portion of spare ribs and a ‘hanging’ kebab – which turned out to be two kebabs suspended from a metal spike enabling the provided butter to drip from top to bottom.Our two other friends went for a beef lasagne and the five-bean chilli – which was pronounced ‘hot’!!!I said earlier that I was almost in heaven with my jerk chicken – almost, as the sauce, or if you’re posh jus, was just screaming out for some bread to soak it up.Thankfully a nod to the waitress and a request resulted in a plate of freshly-baked, lightly charred, french bread. Now I really was in heaven.Adding three beers, a couple of bottles of wine, a couple of additional glasses of wine and several fruit juice and sodas resulted in a bill for just shy of £130.00 – for six people.Will we be going back – like a shot – but be warned, the jerk chicken (and the chilli) isn’t for the timorous.

Great pub with excellent food. The pizzas are always popular when we have family round. Perfect place to reward yourself after climbing White Nancy.

The Crown offers high quality food and drink at reasonable prices in a pleasant modern environment e.g. a soft drink and a large homemade Pizza for £7.95. I would definitely recommend this pub

Great local pub! Atmosphere is always good! A place to easily make friends!

Had drinks after long walk up to white nancy, looked at menu and called in again week later to have fantastic veg pizza, huge! And very spicy hot five bean chilli. Lovely. Very cosy pub, very popular. Nice wine too. Will be back.

A great Saturday night out beer very reasonable priced and excellent live music

Surprisingly modern interior in this family orientated pub. Called in for welcome drinks late afternoon after a circular walk in the adjacent hills and countryside. Plenty of room to sit and relax. Newspapers, too.

I stumbled across this great little pub by accident. I needed to urgently charge my car on a trip to the area and the pub came up on a search for charging locations. The staff were very friendly and happy to let me charge the car so I popped in for a while. Didn't eat this time but the menu looked good and other customers seemed very happy and their food looked good! Will be back another time I'm sure.

Very close to White Nancy and very tidy interior. We came for lunch (which means a limited menu) and we had a pizza. The pizza was delicious and staff attentive. Very nice place would definitely come again.

I just want to warn everyone considering eating here, stay far away from the toasties, paid £3 for a ham and cheese toastie and it was basically just bread. I have a picture of the 5 diced squares of ham that they graced me with but can’t upload on here. Would’ve complained but no one visible at the bar and I didnt want to interrupt the landlady who was sat down at a table eating a McDonald’s... Plus this isn’t the type of atmosphere that you feel comfortable complaining in if I’m honest.

Excellent staff, great atmosphere watching the City games, great manager very friendly and professional.

Early evening pizza and couldn't have been more pleased. Straight from work we sat outside at the front and shared a fab pizza (plenty for two). Lager very nice too.

Went for early evening meal. Pizzas were fantastic and all staff were really friendly. Bright and clean surroundings. Thank you

We popped down the road from our house and had two fabulous pizzas as a treat...goats cheese balsamic vinegar and rocket - delicious! cant wait to go back!

Great little pub and great sevice

Always guaranteed to get a great pizza here! Brilliant value for money. Warm welcome and nice view of white nancy outside ❤

Real entertainment on a Friday and Saturday nights.

Good pub live music plenty of people in

Superb food and an absolute find!!

I would book as it’s not the biggest! We booked a table of 10 and had a fantastic experience. It is a pub but the service and the food easily exceeds expectations. The pizzas are excellent, as are the burgers and particularly the hanging kebab! It’s Kid and dog friendly. Wow a real find.

Great traditional pub good crowd.

As a family we go here quite regularly and I have to say that you will not find a better pizza in the whole of Cheshire.

Durante su estancia en un hotel local para el fin de semana, la corona fue mencionado como un pub cerca, así que por lugares llenos de líquido para refrescarse antes de reunirse con los amigos.

Stopped here for the Sunday roast carvery after reading reviews on tripadvisor. I wasn't disappointed. Good portion size and reasonable priced. I have not long moved to the area to will definitely visit again. I hear their pizza's are good, look forward to trying them.

Noche cuando cerca de Hollin Hall.

Visited here on a trip to cheshire..wanted to watch a football match before dinner at a local hotel we booked.Lovely atmosphere in local community.Food looked lovely especially the pizzas! Staff lovely too but top marks to the manager of The Crown..we asked to order taxi...

Regularmente este pub con mi pareja, amigos y/o familia y comentarios positivos. Simon y Jo son unos anfitriones acogedores y una eficiente y limpio establecimiento, con un excelente bar y equipo de cocina. La comida siempre es impresionante, con la pizza un punto destacado, así...

Visitamos con amigos, familia y perros - muy amable, acogedor pub ahora sirve una gran relación calidad-precio en un domingo de asados! Cortes de carne de calidad y mucha variedad de acompañamientos, cerveza fantástica. ! Sin duda volveremos! !

Hemos visitado este lugar en un par de ocasiones y sentir que debo finalmente a revisar. El menú es variado y para todos los gustos, la comida es excelente y los anfitriones son muy amables y siempre te hacen sentir bienvenido. Sin duda lo recomendaría.

Been here a few times as the food is nice however, on the occasions I have been in service is slow and the landlady always seems to be drunk!

Stopped off on our way back from Cheadle RoyalFriendly locals Pub and Diner which had just started a Sunday Carvery !!Generous portion of tender Roast beef and a good selection of fresh veggies with a choice of hot and cold puds All washed down with a good selection of alesWhat's not to like

If you want a great hand made pizza, then go to The Crown in Bollington. Pizzas here are far superior to some of the better known pizza chain restaurants. If pizza isn't your bag, speciality pies are also on offer. Staff are friendly and efficient and the pub is clean and cosy. Try the quiz on Thurs nights....great to jiggle those grey cells now and again

Good place to meet new friends staff always happy and friendly good live bands on Friday and Saturday plus it's a nice warm atmosphere come and join us .

We were here for my grandson's fourth birthday. The Crown was his choice and I'm so glad it was! My first time here, but my family come here regularly, and love it. Warm welcome, and very attentive, friendly staff.

The Crown is always very friendly and welcoming. Last night after a quick drink I ordered a takeaway pizza from the specials menu. The goat cheese, walnut and honey was delicious. Well done and thanks for doing something a little it different from the standard range.

We had a really super time here. Pizzas were really very good perfect thickness. We walked from Rainow and back and had lunch here in the middle what a treat thank you

If your driving around the area pretty much lost and spitting feathers...just pull into the carpark and go in...like we did. Obvious strangers to the area we got such a friendly welcome and seeing how nice it was we opted to have lunch. Great food. Good veggie choice. Proper good coffee! Spotlessly clean including bathroom (always a good sign of standards). Mums already planning another visit. Next time im planning the trip and walking up that fab hill next to the pub. Thanks for the welcome. We really needed it!

I heard about this place on silk radio so thought id give it a go as reviews were good. Booked a table for 7.30pm for two. At 7.15 i rang to say we would be 10 mins late as it was a 45min drive and there was a diversion. I was then told that the kitchen was now closed. I asked what this meant in terms of our table (i spoke to Alan both times) and he said there was no food available but we could still have a table. Now in over 25 years of booking a table at a pub and restaurant i have never booked a table (nor would anyone on a Sunday evening) to just sit there. Obviously i cancelled it - very disappointing. Not a good experience. Went nearby to the Cock & Pheasant which was excellent!

Met up with friends on our first visit to this nice wee village pub. Good wholesome food and dogs allowed!! .... Also noted my mother has the same flowery wallpaper !!! (chuckle)

Stopped here for lunch on bank holiday Monday, completely unsure what to expect as although I live in Bollington, I have never been. Well, it was a nice surprise. The place is neatly refurbished and we received a friendly welcome. There is a good selection of beer on the bar and a few nice touches like a 'bring and borrow' bookshelf and local magazines/papers etc. They have been wise with the menu, in that it's not an enormous choice, but what they do, they do very well indeed. We had pizza and salad and it was all really delicious, very fresh, tasty and well presented, arrived promptly, and as we were sharing they brought plenty of spare plates and cutlery without us having to ask. It was also a bargain lunch, so we left very happy indeed.I like this much better than pubs that try and do a lot of complicated things on their menu, but then either take ages to prepare them, do them badly, or half the things are 'off' due to missing random items. This isn't like that at all. They have picked a formula that obviously works, and they deliver it with skill.Nicely done.

There are plenty of lunchtime options in Bollington, but more often than not we find ourselves in the Crown. Its not the prettiest place and the beer selection is a bit hit and miss, but its child friendly and the pizzas are simply awesome. It's always our kids' first choice. Very friendly and helpful service and you've got a great package.Heh they even do takeaway pizzas too!

We stopped by this pub on a lovely sunny Sunday afternoon. It was 2:30 so a bit of an unusual time to eat but we were greeted with smiles and the food was served promptly. There was a good range of beers and ciders, better than I was expecting for a small ish country pub. We ended up having a lovely afternoon sat outside with passers by wishing us well!

Was staying at a local hotel but the food was only ok so went on the net and found the Crown Traditional exterior , modern inside , friendly staff . Ordered homemade Pizza and it was the best I have had in 20 years , thin crust and Caio Bella topping Wife had Ribeye Steak perfectly cooked (unlike our hotel the night before) You must eat in this place if in the area Date of visit St George's Day 2016

Came for Saturday lunch. Excellent pizza's and steak & kidney pie. Good beer. Friendly service. Overall it was really good.

A return visit to this pub for my wife and I. For me, the Sharp's Doom Bar and a fanatastic pizza with cheese,tomato and chorizo,while my wife had the Coors Lite and a cheese and ham panini. We both enjoyed our lunch very much,in this greta little pub/restaraunt. The staff are great too.

A charming family and dog friendly pub.It has cask ale, premium draft and bottled lager and great pizzas and burgers and spicy Thai Curry

We were staying in Pott shrigley and decided to visit the Crown for lunch. We had a pizza which was very nice and the staff very friendly.The pub is nicely decorated and very clean. They also had different kinds of Italian coffee on their menu.We will visit this pub again the next time we are in Bollington.

Anytime I've ever been in to the crown I've always had a great time. They have an excellent selection of beers, wines and spirits to suit any preference. The food is always so delicious, and cooked from scratch by their excellent chef. Staff are always so friendly and go above and beyond. Thursday nights quiz is always popular and has a great turn out. Regarding a previous review saying that there's underage drinking, I'm 20 years old and staff always check my ID to make sure I am old enough to be drinking.

I moved to Bollington in Feb 2015, and from the first visit to "The Crown" was made to feel welcome, it's a friendly pub with fun events, quiz nights, bbq in summer, Christmas fair and festivities and themed fancy dress parties. The food is amazing and Pizza to die for, better than any Italian, staff are always accommodating and service is efficient. Great pub just to call in and have a coffee and read the paper after a dog walk in the beautiful surroundings, or a twilight couple of beers with a pizza, or a sociable evening with friends.A must if you are passing through Bollington or staying nearby for the weekend. Welcomes elderly, middle aged, teenagers, kids babies and dogs!!!!!

After visiting the pub a couple of times since moving to Bollington a few months ago I found the Thursday quiz night to be a good night out. A good quiz with plenty of people taking part. So, last night three of my friends visited me and I said we should go into the pub.When we went in I found that there was only one table free underneath the TV so sat myself down to secure it. There were no drinks, bags or coats on the table so I wasn't barging in on anyone.Anyway along came a couple of youths who said that the table was reserved (under age drinking by the way.) There was no reserved sign so I mentioned that this was a 'public' house and therefore I had every right to use the table.The next thing I know the landlady comes over and tells me to move. So whilst not happy about that I moved and stood by the bar. One of the youths then decided to make a smart alec comment that I verbally reacted to (yes, I shouldn't have.) The next thing I know we are asked to leave by the landlady and weren't even allowed to finish our drinks. Seems to be a very clicky pub where it's one rule for one and one rule for the other.

Came across this amazing little pub and had a great value lunch with no compromise on quality in a relaxed and informal little pub. Dan and Bevalacqua

My husband and I were invited by friends to have pizza here, just before Christmas. We were just going to turn up but my friend telephoned before we did. Just as well - they were packed! We agreed a time to go and we had missed the rush. It was lovely and peaceful. A nice clean pub with lovely decor. The staff were great, too - very friendly and approachable.We all ordered pizza. It took a little while to come but then again, this isn't your frozen-throw-it-in-the-oven pizza so it was worth waiting for it to be made! The only improvement I would suggest would be to offer coleslaw as a side because I love coleslaw with pizza.Pizza was gorgeous and apparently they do a BOGOF on Mondays!We will be back.Thanks guys!

I used to go to The Crown years back to have a pint & play pool as it was one of the few pubs in Bolly with a decent pool table. Beer was good, atmos. was good, but the pub a bit drab.However, that all changed a few years back. It's still a pub well worth visiting for a pint or two, but the decor is much improved and the pizzas are absolutely lovely. Much tastier & healthier than dominos or any other delivery pizza and really reasonably priced. Just a shame there's no delivery!Family friendly & allergy aware - important to me asmy daughter has a severe peanut allergy.Definitely worth a try.

We called in for a quick beer nice pub atmosphere. . Nice few outside benches for enjoying the sun on a good day.

We went there for lunch on a weekday. The pizzas were great, tasted freshly-made, and well worth the rather long wait. We had small children with us, and sat outside in the patio area, and therein lies the reason for three stars only: this area was, quite frankly, dirty, with litter/cigarette ends on the floor that looked as if it had been there quite a while. I realize that the mess will have been left by previous customers but honestly, could the management not take a broom to it more often? Also, one of the two cubicles in the ladies was missing a lock. Sloppy maintenance that lets down the chef and bar staff.

Very good pizzas, the kids love them. Regular take away haunt. The pub itself is a local with a reasonable range of beer

Best atmosphere, best food (pizza's are delicious) and the staff are amazing, couldn't be more welcoming, feels like home. Highly recommended! The trivia night on Thursday is a must, the place was full of people, everyone having a blast!

Had a lovely afternoon at the crown. Plenty of room at the back for our two young children to play, Great food and a really good atmosphere. Many thanks to the aussie lad and the chef for cooking me a pizza after the kitchen had closed on sunday evening. Also the pizza was amazing. Thanks Alot guys.

Really friendly over the phone. Pizza's were lovely and we have been and sat in before now and all food was lovely

A really nice family operated pub, a good meal, nice pints and great service what else could you wish for in a pub like this. Best family pub in Bollington

Really good proper Italian-style pizza that we often get to take out; lovely chips too (not your average greasy take-away kind). Very bright nice pub to meet in for lunch. Free wi-fi -- always a great bonus. Great selection of drinks and great hot chocolate! Super lovely friendly staff. Wonderful pub overall, highly recommended.

We booked The Crown for a family gathering over a lunchtime. The food was excellent, as was the choice of beers and spirits. Staff couldn't have been friendlier. Thoroughly recommended.

My wife and I stopped in for a drink and I decided on a panini to go with the pint of Doom Bar. Both pint and panini were very nice,as was the wife's Peroni,and the pub itself was great. Would definitely call in again.

Have eaten here a few times and really enjoyed food and service, pizza's and burgers are very good as is the breakfast. If your previous visit was before June 2014and you were put off by poor service would recommend you try again, new management have greatly improved both quality of food and level of service.

Small family local with a great chef and a good selection of beers, lager and ciders. The new team running it , Jo, Simon and family are delightful and nothing is too much trouble. A roaring fire is lit on cold days, and delicious hand made pizza is available if you want a change from the traditional pub menu.

Popped in on a Saturday lunchtime for a quick bit to eat. The staff were very friendly and efficient and the food was great. At lunch they offer pizzas and light bites. We had a pizza between myself and my daughter and my wife had the omelette and salad. The pizza was superb, very tasty, crust seemed hand made and probably cooked in a wood fired oven (I forgot to ask!). The omelette was definitely no 'light bite' it was large and very good. Because we are little pigs we also asked for a couple of bowls of fries on the side and the chef asked if she could do us a bowl for the table which we agreed to but even between three we had a job to consume the huge pile of superb skinny fries. All round great job! We even booked a table for Christmas Eve!

On Saturday for our daughters 7th birthday party we organised a treasure hunt in the area and arranged to end the party at The Crown for pizza and chips. Communication prior to Saturday with Simon and Jo was great, they were able to answer our enquires efficiently and offered advice on quantities to order etc. When we arrived at The Crown the staff were very welcoming and within 10 minutes of the children sitting down the food (which was pre-ordered) was served. It was superb and just what was needed by 10 hungry children and 3 hungry adults. As we have regularly eaten at The Crown we knew that we would be getting great service and great food .... the service we received on Saturday was outstanding.....the timings were perfect, the food outstanding (as always), the pub was clean and welcoming and the staff were very attentive. The Crown in Bollington is a great place and we always recommend it.

Had a super meal here with my husband & teenage sons. Can't grumble about the food or service, just the rather ignorant large table of drinkers next to us who not content with encroaching on our table managed to nudge the poor girl serving our drinks so that my son ended up wearing the coke he had ordered. No apologies whatsoever from the drinkers to my son or the poor waitress. Great food though & poor clientele should not put you off. We will be back!

Total shock when we stopped for lunch in this place. Amazing food, staff and the decor is brill! Well done to The Crown Inn. Great atmosphere and very reasonably priced.

We stopped at The Crown after walking to the top of White Nancy. Simon and Jo were really attentive and we were treated to lovely home cooked pizza and Sunday dinner. The pub was clean and felt really homely. We will definitely return for another visit to try out the growing menu - looking forward to trying the breakfast menu too!!! See you soon!
