The Crown Inn in Tunbridge Wells - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Delicious food, friendly welcome, decent beer….. just perfect.

Terrible experience as they didn't make us feel welcome at all so we went to the junction inn instead. Don't bother. Would give 0 stars if i could have.

Turned up on a Sunday at opening hour 12pm. We were a group of 15 being coming to this pub for the last ten years. We were all wanting a drink and some chips (Nothing complicated) We were not made to feel welcome by the elderly male staff member who quite honestly looked horrified that they had customers who weren’t local people. Looking down over his nose we were told that we couldn’t sit in the garden as it was reserved. So we asked when it was reserved for and told 1330hrs. An hour and half to have a drink and chips, easy, we would be gone before their booking arrived. The staff then said, no food as we hadn’t booked and they were expecting 30 pre orders. We were offered crisps instead. Never had this issue before but clearly they didn’t want our custom. We will be taking it elsewhere where in future. Five minutes up the road where I know we will be welcome. Good luck with your business. X

Excellent, genuinely ancient country pub. This fine hostelry serves "Sussex Best" real ale, by Harvey's of Lewes

What a wonderful place. A couple of locals recommended The Crown Inn as a great place for some Americans to sample some English beers and hospitality. We were not disappointed.

Great little pub in a lovely location. Decided to take a walk from Groombridge Station (Spa Valley Railway steam day, yeah I know, bit geeky but don't care) and decided to go for a quick drink. The nearest was only 200 yards so not much of a walk and Crown was only about half a mile amble so chose there. Sat outside the front, not too much traffic on country road. Good range of beers including a Czech lager I hadn't had before and whose name I now can't remember (sadly!) Hopefully someone reading this will know! Nice little find and will return when in the neighbourhood.

Excellent little pub, with simple, delicious and well-crafted menu.

Went here by chance with my brother before attending a wedding at High Rocks. The warm and friendly lady serving was lovely. We had a couple of pints for a good selection and a beef sandwich with amazing horseradish. The beef was delicious nice thick piece, served in delicious crusty bread, a little salad and chips - perfect 👍 Highly recommend this place if you are in the area.

This absolute beauty of a public house settled closely to Groombridge station is everything the reviews say. Stunning location, beautiful decor, friendly staff and the best portion of chips we've ever had. We will return.

Not been to The crown Inn in ages me and my parents visited on Sunday, Steve and his team are friendly and always provide excellent customer service well worth the value, the roast beef was amazing and ice cream was delicious will be back soon

Lovely 16th century pub in a great setting, although quite close to busy road, so there is some noise if outside. Good beer although would suggest adding IPA on tap. Food (Fish and Chips) was good quality and portions were a good size. Tbh, we couldn't finish our plates but not complaining. Good outside space and friendly staff added to an enjoyable experience.....

Lovely location and atmosphere. Drinks only not food

Decent but very pricey, even before they automatically add a service charge.

Never again! Disgusting! We popped in for 2 drinks & ordered a large portion of chips, £19. We watched the waitress bring out meals for another table & a lengthy discussion on if the large portion of chips were theirs or which l thought could possibly be ours. The chips were put down and the couple at the other table started eating the chips. After a while, 10 minutes, we went up to bar to ask about our chips. To our disbelief the landlord having asked the waitress about the chips, he went over & took the chips from the other table & started walking towards us with the half eaten bowl of chips. Of course we said we were not accepting them and insisted on a fresh bowl. If we had not witnessed this we could have happily accepted the half eaten chips. We definitely would not go back or recommend. If they are cutting corners on chips, they are probably recycling on other food too!!!

An old fashioned pub in a great setting. Just stopped for a drink & enjoyed sitting outside.

Great to see a pub with a genuine old fashioned bar - great location and comfortable seating inside and out

Absolutely fantastic dinner, very caring service, excellent food and great menu of attractive options. Been here before and will come again.

Lovely cosy country pub - good for a pint, very friendly. Food unfortunately was not good. Unpleasant gelatinous slab of mash (I hardly know how to describe how strange it was - I didn't know you could get mashed potato wrong), 'pie' that was a bit of puff pastry balanced on a bland filling, tasteless veg. We hadn't eaten all day so we ate it, but I couldn't recommend. My friend said his chips were nice.

Stayed here for a couple of nights over the weekend: really great food, atmosphere and place to stay for a weekend away.

It’s a rather shabby place, picturesquely located, but that’s all. With pretensions to Slavic cuisine, but everything is enough for a C grade. If it’s really sad, but it’s like it’s being prepared in the 5th generation, the name seems to remain, but the taste is no longer consistent. Although the prices are quite high for such quality. The overall impression is also quite dull, the pretense of authenticity and such a pastoral style, in reality everything is just old and dirty. Feeling of desolation.

We are a group of 8 friends who came for Sunday lunch after our walk. I had been speaking to Steve about a surprise birthday cake for my husband a few weeks before our visit. Steve has been excellent, he arranged for us to dine in the Smugglers room and the cake that had been arranged was lovely. The food was good as was the service, when we walked in the fire was roaring and the atmosphere was good, the smugglers room is private and away from the fire and the bar but it worked for us as a party of 8 people.

I’m an oap and this rates in the top 3 worst roast dinners I have ever had the misfortune to have eaten. Don’t know if it’s a new chef since I last visited or just a bad day ? But will not eat there again, and highly priced for what we were served, came out still hungry, we had to go and get something else to eat elsewhere.

Insufficient staff for the number of tables hence the very slow service . The waitress tried her best .We were not informed when certain food was not available, and instead were just presented with poor alternatives, for example a tiny portion of mash potato instead of potato dauphinoise and fish pie instead of chicken pie. The table wasn’t cleared and properly laid , we had to wait for the cutlery whilst the food was sitting on the table getting very cold . The manager was begrudgingly apologetic and offered a 10% discount off the bill . However, when we said this wasn’t acceptable and mentioned he should have had more staff on for the number of tables reserved , he said “I’m not answering that” and stormed off .He sent the lady back with the card machine and we paid what we felt the meal was worth .

A delicious Sunday Roast after a long walk with great company and our dogs. Picked this pub over all others based on their latest reviews, we were not disappointed. Highly recommend for the great Sunday roast and lovely staff.

This was our Golden Wedding Anniversary celebration with my husband and daughter and her husband. Firstly we were disappointed that the pub was dark and cold and the fire was not lit. I had ordered in the past fish pie which was full of fish and topped with potato. On the specials board it said that the fish pie came with dauphinoise potato on the top, it turned up with pastry on the bottom and top, and worse, inside the pie was mostly peas, hardly any fish and the prawns were overcooked. They did provide the dauphinoise potato separately eventually, saying that the new chef didn't realise about the dauphinoise potato. The brocolli was so tough I couldn't cut through it and it also came with more peas! I hardly ate any of it and the lady said that I could have a coffee on the house which I declined, I feel that they should have not charged for the meal at all. We have frequented this pub occasionally over the last 32 years but we will never go back again. The other's food was mediocre and the whole experience was so disappointing !

A group of five people met for lunch at this pub. We each paid separately for our meal. Before payment a 10% surcharge was added by hand to the bill. We were told that there is a 10% surcharge for eating inside the pub. Upon payment of the bill, an amount that appeared to be the equivalent of the added on surcharge was taken out of the till in cash and put in a pot. Very odd!!!! I ordered one of the East European dishes. Plov. When it arrived the garlic was raw. Uncooked. Not rich and sweet. The garlic is supposed to be oven roasted. The plate was sent back. The plate came back minus the garlic. I was asked if I could eat the food without the garlic. I said that rather defeated the whole point. The plate went back. The plate came back with garlic that had obviously been cooked in the microwave. The garlic was like rubber. Not rich and soft. I complained I was told that the garlic had been cooked the way it always is cooked. Rubbish. I know this to be untrue as I have had plov before. One of my friends had his plate brought out. It was not as he had ordered. The plate was taken back. Another plate was brought out. With the wrong food on it. This plate was sent back. The correct plate was then brought out. On the plus side. The food itself was very tasty. We should have been offered some kind of recompense for the poor service. We were not. When I ordered the coffees they should have been complimentary. They were not. All in all an unsatisfactory experience. And because of that we shall not be returning.

Best Sunday Lunch..! Quaint, traditional, Kentish village pub. Roaring fire. Great atmosphere. Very friendly. Local ales to drink. Roast dinner was exceptional. Well worth a visit. We will be returning soon..!

I’m new to the area and love experiencing new places to eat. However this is one place I won’t be going back to. I’m not sure if there are new owners but the 4.6 google reviews made me think it would be good. Sadly the staff weren’t great and the food was mediocre. Arrived and sat down no problem, asked the waitress what ales there were but she didn’t speak great English and made me go to the bar to “take a look”! Only ordered mains as no starter specials and the menu ones had bog standard options. As a main we went for the fish pie and venison shepherds pie (both topped with Dauphinois) however when they arrived, I was given the “fish” pie which was topped with what appeared to be crushed potatoes (later found out this was supposed to be mash)! It turned out that the meals were given to the wrong party members (just 2 of us) as I noticed mine was brown underneath. Anyway, no one came back so I took the venison shepherds pie up to the bar to explain we were expecting a different potato topping, not problem to get it changed but came back out 10 minutes later with questionable Dauphinois (as didn’t look the same as the fish pie) and stone cold veg, so clearly the dish wasn’t redone. Both pies lacked flavour and filling, it was predominantly potato on both and my partner even questioned if it was actually venison! Drinks expensive too. All in all very underwhelming.

This is a proper pub with great food, well run and worth a visit. Great all year around from sitting in the gardens, terrace in the sun or tucked up inside by the open fire in the winter, enjoying home cooked fayre and a decent pint of Harveys. Go check it out, you wont be dissapointed.

Really quaint and cute and comfy.

Had lunch at The Crown with a group of friends. It was an appalling day but the welcome was so warm and friendly. Our food was delivered very quickly and we had a variety of dishes. The fish and Chios were very tasty due to a very light batter. The fish starter was massive. We enjoyed it so much that we will return. Booking at the weekend is essential.

Been there a few times now. Lovely staff, food created with care, excellent local cider!!! Location is amazing with great walks and views around the area. Driving there through the Sussex countryside is also a treat! We had a gluten free and vegan chocolate desert with vanilla ice cream and custard. Really nice!!! 😋 will definitely return!!!

Lovely pub… food really good … will def b back

Very nice pint of Harvey's. Classic country pub

We were fortunate enough to have an amazing Christmas Day lunch with these guys! Food was great, service was excellent. We couldn’t fault anything! There were 16 of us and we were all very happy with our food. Thank you for making our day so memorable!

Best old pub around Crowborough and Tunbridge wells.

Love this old pub, go to Groombridge 2 or 3 times a year. My father grew up here and was laid to rest in the smaller grave yard with his parents. We always stop and have lunch just to stay in the village for a bit longer.

This is a very pleasant country pub with good food and warm welcoming staff. Well worth a visit.

Amazing oldy-worldy pub. Lovely log fire. Lovely staff, excellent reasonably priced food. I recommend the Brie, bacon and cranberry sandwich which comes with chips and salad (£11.50)... absolutely wonderful! I shall be returning

We visited last Sunday the menu sadly was mainly roast. I was looking forward to try other things. My roast was beef and it wasn't my favourite, overcooked. Service is friendly and nice.

Lovely setting, superb pint of Larkin's. Didn't eat there so can't comment on food.

1st visit here and wow beer and food was amazing. Will definitely visit again Would highly recommend it to passers by

If you arexa lover of cheese then go here for the cheese board alone. It is the best I have ever eaten. Bar none. The wines are good and extremely reasonable. Tthe oortion sizes are fantastic. These guys know how to entertain.

Fairly uninspiring food but beautiful old country pub

We ate there on a Tuesday night and they couldn't wait to lock up!

Nice olde pub with a cute little outside seating area. Good service.

Came here with my brother who is a regular/local and I was made to feel very welcome by the landlord and his staff and would've stayed longer had it not for needing to get the bus home. Can't comment on the food as I we didn't dine there but 100% brilliant country pub.

Great pub in a beautiful area, a shame I've got late after the kitchen was closed. Looking forward to visit it again!

Good food in a historic building. Generous quantities but good quality. For some people one of their sandwiches would be more food than they'd eat for lunch. Prices are reasonable considering and the people who serve go the extra mile. Just a word about the beer, Harvey's of Lewis make one of the reference "Real Ales" and this pub keeps it well. Try it it may become your benchmark,

First visited this great pub in May when we enjoyed a really good pint and lunch. Returned again today for an even better meal. There was a good selection of food, both on the menu and specials board.We chose the hunters chicken and the belly pork. The food came quickly, was freshly cooked and absolutely delicious! If in the area you must visit the Crown Inn as it has everything you need - great tasty food, good atmosphere, quaint internal dining area (very old inn) and large external eating area.

Lovely old pub, great friendly staff. The food prices are on the higher end of what I would expect to pay when there is no table service and the food was average, although the chips were great.

We had a really lovely meal here on Sunday. We went on the spa valley railway and decided to get off at Groomsbridge and have a look around the village. I had read the reviews for this pub which were all excellent and so thought we would try it for ourselves. The food was really delicious. We ordered roast dinners and chicken nuggets and chips for the grandchildren and we all really enjoyed our meal. The staff are all very friendly and there is a lovely garden which you can walk around in or sit in and enjoy the lovely views. Will definitely return on our next visit to Groomsbridge. There is also a really nice play park 8 min walk away next to the village hall.

Love the oldie worldy type of pub but found the barman rather sharp. and the price of 2 beers and 2 pims/lemonade more like what you would pay in London

Great little pub. Loads to choose from on menu..

Really lovely food and even better service. The gentleman who served us went so far out of his way to help my mother who is less mobile than she would like to be. A must visit!

The food here is to die for- we came twice!! The lamb wellington is cooked to perfection. Beer Garden is lovely and staff were very co-operative about getting the food up the hill.

Love the Crown ...love Groombridge ... Reliable as always !! Great food and lovely people !!

A good country pub offering good beer in an agreeable setting. Bus 291 stops outside.

Having returned to the area after a 37 year absence, I thought we'd revisit the Crown, for my birthday dinner. There was just my wife and I. We had booked and were greeted by welcoming, enthusiastic staff, to a remembered, warm, clean and cozy ambience. The meal was perfect as was the Argentinian "Malbec". The International Menu's "Solyanka Soup" is a must-have! Thank you so much.

This a great country pub which has an interesting menu and including some rather splendid Golubski

I got molested while staying in the b&b would not reccomend staying here overnight but the food is good you might get food poisoning and catch chlamydia off the toilet seats or the manager.

Went to Crown this evening and was served by a lovely young lad who was quick and efficient. The pub is spacious with inside areas, cosy bar, restaurant and outside tables - everything was clean and I noticed the barman was constantly wiping/cleaning the bar. Parking in front and car back in the back. Ordered a brie ploughman's and mac and cheese with a portion of chips. All came out in a timely manner it was hot, fresh and delicious, plentiful and certainly ticked all our boxes. We would certainly recommend and will be back shortly. I feel so very sad that we have just come out of difficult times with Covid and now an increase in utilities. You have to feel sorry for the staff and owners as they are doing their best to accommodate and please so many people. It would be such a shame to loose these quaint pubs from our villages and although I respect your reviews I do think you should consider before you write such negative and damaging comments. On the continent people take time to enjoy their food and beverages, talk and laugh with friends and enjoy themselves. Again I would recommend and please try it for yourself you will have an enjoyable tasty meal.

Past many times and finally decided to stop, best ploughmans and chips in a long time! Lovely staff great menu so will be back soon to try something else of it. Lots of vegan/veggie options, much more then I'd have expected

Phoned (at midday) and booked a table for 1.00pm for 2 people. Arrived on time and ordered food (Fish & Chips and Scampi & Chips) at 1.20pm. Despite assurances that the food would be coming soon, at 2.15 with still no sign of food, we left. Reason given was that people had all arrived at once. There were 11 people in the pub! At least they did the decent thing and did not charge us for our drinks. If people arrived without booking then they should not be given priority and should be told that there may be a delay in ordering food. We were not told there would be any delay upon arrival or at any time after ordering that there could be a delay. If they were people who had booked then they should not have taken our booking. Very disappointing.

Rather uninspiring I'm afraid and also expensive. Too much messing about regarding ordering. I was waiting a while along with any chap who lived locally. Fish was just delivered on an empty plate. I've never seen that before! However fish was Ok, not special. It's a shame as it's a nice old fashioned pub, just lacking a good pub atmosphere. Probably won't go back again,.

Great little country pub steeped in history. Had really good lunch served by the very friendly landlord. Would definitely recommend this pub if in the area, or if you fancy a trip out! Good food and drink, friendly atmosphere, great pub and garden.

The Crown Inn in Groombridge is a must-visit for anyone looking for a great dining experience. With a 4-star rating on TripAdvisor and a 5-star hygiene rating, this 16th-century free house is a gem in the heart of Kent. The menu is beautifully conceived and prepared, with dishes that are always fresh and absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is great, the servers are friendly, and the prices are reasonable. The Crown Inn is not just a restaurant, it's an experience. Don't miss out on this hidden treasure!

Came here for my grandad’s 85th birthday, no one even took notice regarding this special day or making it special by any means. We came in as the first people to arrive, we were taken to our seats. We waited for 35 minutes before even getting a drink or some water which is outrageous considering I am 38 weeks pregnant and my grandparents are elderly. I did shout across saying excuse me and was ignored by a lady. I ended up going to the bar as my poor grandad was standing there when he is not great on his feet for around 10 minutes trying to grab someone’s attention for drinks. I eventually stopped a lady who was going to just carry on walking, I explained we have been waiting for 35 minutes, she advised several people came in at the same time so they were in dated. I explained that all I wanted to know was were we go the bar to order food and drinks or would someone come to us, she advised they will come to us. Bare in mind we were the first ones there and they were serving drinks and food to others before us is ridiculous when we were the first ones in. When we eventually got round to ordering drinks the lady did apologise, though we were quite frankly annoyed we accepted this. My nan was ordering a spritzer and the lady was saying well what one and my Nan said with lemonade because she didn’t understand what was being asked, lady came across quite rude when questioning my nan leaving her feeling embarrassed. There was also quite an attitude in the way this lady spoke, whether that was an accent thing or not. When our drinks eventually arrived I got given a cider when quite clearly I said appetiser and I’m heavily pregnant so you did have to laugh. The man went back to the bar and sorted this. There was no heating (though it’s summer it’s very cold in there). Also lights were not turned on straight away and were incredibly dim when they were on. Food arrived, I had the burger which was not the best I’ve had, bacon very fatty and didn’t seem cooked properly. The burger was quite pinky. The only thing good was the chutney jam inside, the bun, coleslaw and salad. The chips were processed and tasted awful. Temperature was nice and hot though. My step father advised his fish & chips was incredible and you could not fault it. My nan advised the fish pie was lovely and my grandad finished his plate so assuming his was up to standard. After food we were served by a lovely lady with glasses who I must say made the experience that little bit better and could not fault her, a credit to the team for sure. She served us hot drinks in a timely major which was lovely followed by pudding which again was lovely. We then squared up and left. Overall, I would not come here again and I’m appalled how this place has treated myself being pregnant and also my grandfather who is elderly and especially on his birthday when it was supposed to be a delightful and joyful experience. Lots of flies! And crumbs still left on the table. It was so difficult to get anyone’s attention that I wasn’t able to successfully complain. It’s a shame we have wasted such a huge amount of money especially in these hard times. I do wish the pub take note from this and I would appreciate a response/resolution though I’m sure this will be ignored.

It's been four years since last I had the pleasure of visiting this pub, and I'm very pleased to report that it's still as good.The server is still as good - friendly, welcoming, capable of multitasking, and by the second round, knew what we drank....

Good pint of Harvey's at a friendly place

Went with extended family, 17 of us aged from 7 to 77. Pre booked 2 weeks in advance. Waited nearly an hour for simple bread and olives starters. Main course ( another half hour later) was hot and varied from mediocre to good according to...

What a disappointing lunch this my first visit with a walking group. 45 minutes wait for a Caesar salad with cold chicken at £16.95 chosen for speed of service and hardly a diner in sight. We were told booking was unnecessary mid week and only...

Lovely pint of Harvey's sat on the green watching some May Day Morris

Thank you for the superb food you provided us with yesterday.good portions and nicely presented dishes. We have not been for about 5 years but the food quality remains the same This does not apply to some pubs at the moment. A lovely old ambience in the pub !! I shall be returning with the walking group hopefully in the not too distant future.

Great pub. Good beers & excellent food choice including excellent, unusual & tasty Eastern European selection.very friendly landlord. We'll definitely go back

Had dinner here with friends & I can highly recommend. I had the warm goats cheese to start, it was absolutely delicious, my husband had pate, it was an amazing portion & everything was perfect. I also tried my friends Mushroom soup, which was divine...

Family party of 6 with 2 hungry teens much enjoyed the Easter Sunday roast. Steve and partner looked after us really well as we had reserved a lovely table near the huge inglenook fireplace. Service was good (we each requested a different condiment with our...

Wonderful pub with incredible food! Highly recommend it for a great time!

Lovely food, good sized portions. Friendly staff. Beautiful old building.

Great pub, great food, but think you need to book as it is popular , charming character, seats out the front, and seating / patio at the rear of pub.

The best pub food we have ever had, fresh and homemade, desserts are lovely , brilliant setting, great staff, priced fairly, we return frequently, would highly recommend,

Amazing food and friendly staff!

Very nice pub with good menu for home cooked food at a good fair price. Easy parking and great walks in the area.

Today we had the most delicious fish pie….topped with dauphinois potatoes and served with perfectly cooked veg! One of the best pies that we’ve ever tasted …great service and friendly staff

To be fair I looked up the reviews before eating here and seeing loads af 5* perhaps contributed to being a bit underwhelmed. Service was painfully slow 45m for mains and 30m+ for 3 desserts (two the same, one ice cream). Think perhaps ordering off the "specials" board was a mistake, as my fellow diners enjoyed their main menu dishes. If it was based on my sole experience I would not return however everyone else seemed to enjoy food so on balance 3* given. Honest review - Avoid the specials, and expect a leisurely service.

Very welcoming, lovely food, good value!

First time that I have been to this pub. The food was excellent. Service was great and courteous. I had a starter of baked camembert with bread and lovely mixed salad. For the main course, Lamb Wellington with dauphinoise potatoes, broccoli, Cauliflower and carrots with a red wine jus - absolutely delicious, but I couldn't finish it all! So no pudding for me! Beer well kept and smooth. They also had a magician there when I visited and his tricks were amazing. I've seen him before - Adam Smith from Royal Tunbridge Wells - he gets better every time I see him. Strongly recommend the venue, although it's a busy pub, so get there early as very popular. Not surprising considering the quality of the food.

I popped in here twice last weekend as I heard great things about their food especially their international menu and I was not disappointed at all... My first venture I had a Russian cabbage roll dish (Golubtsyi, translated as "little pigeons")... a hearty dish consisting of cooked cabbage leaves wrapped around a filling of ground beef, rice, onions, carrots and spices slow cooked in a tomato based cream sauce (possibly sour cream, or cream and a squeeze of lemon)... Served with a creamy mash and accompanied with some pickled mushrooms & cabbage and a cooked tomato... Very filling and satisfying! My second dish the following day was a dish called pelmeni, Russian dumplings that consist of a seasoned meaty filling wrapped in thin, unleavened dough which is served in a tomato/cream sauce... Basically little pillows of deliciousness! The atmosphere was a typical country pub setting with a nice welcoming feel, where you don't feel rushed and can just sit there and relax over a pint! Staff were lovely and accommodating... Recommended!

We didn’t plan but we were so lucky to get stuck next to this pub, the owner Steve helped us and for many other with the chaos of the Snow, I will visit again in the Summer

Got stranded here overnight in the snow and The Crown absolutely saved us. Provided an excellent room and last-minute food and accommodated us and our panic. Lovely people, well run, comfortable

We visited the Crown Inn as a walking group of 25. Steve the landlord and all his staff were exceptional. We booked and pre ordered our choices, inevitability there were some changes to be made as people could and couldn’t come, but Steve was always very patient and polite. When we arrived everything was ready for us. All 25 of us cleared our plates and throughly enjoyed our meals. Everything was just so nice. We’ll be sure to return when we can Thank you to all at the Crown Inn.

Very traditional. Need to book, as limited seating

Due to a 90 mile round trip have not been since Feb 2019. But what a Glorius Return we three had . A very warm October day we set off for the essential pre - booked lunch . Very fond memories of our previous visit...

We were a large group of 6 kids, 2 toddlers and 10 adults. The place was not big enough to accommodate us all on one table, so we sat the kids on a table in a closed section whilst we adults and toddlers were seated at a large table. Staff were extremely good considering the mayhem we brought!! Good selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic beers. Good selection of wines etc.. Food was amazing and that was what all of us thought. No one had any negatives. I had the slow cooked Lamb shoulder Wellington. Amazing!!! Whatever they are doing at this pub...please don't stop. Big thank you to the staff for dealing with all the mayhem and requests. We'll be back but perhaps a smaller group next time!!😋

Lovely old pub with great food.

Stopped for a drink while house hunting. Great little pub with generous servings of food. Will stop there again

Had a beautiful lunch - melt in the mouth lamb Wellington, dauphinous potatoes and loads of fresh veg. Friendly staff and lovely atmosphere, will certainly go again

Wonderful old tavern. Lovely landlord and staff great traditional old pub good ale and just had a goats cheese salad followed by venison lasagne lush yummy generous and reasonable priced! What more do you need?

We visited The Crown for a family meal. The young waiting staff seemed clueless and were unfriendly. The food was nice but expensive for a pub meal. The toilets smelled strongly of urine and were dirty, with a bin overflowing with used paper towels. Disappointing...
