The Crown Joule's in South Staffordshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

It's a nice old pub we went in on a Thursday, early evening had a drink and the drinks are very expensive so won't be going very often. Wasn't many people around mainly members of staff. So you could hear a pin drop. Too expensive for us

A friendly pub, worth a visit if you want a cheeky one & grub (food)... My only complaint was the cost of the Peroni Alcohol Free, £4.80 per bottle... The phase (literally) 'They saw me coming' 😂

Update to 3 1/2 years ago and first time been allowed in since the refurb. Turned up twice in the past to be turned away by door man when a 'Word of mouth' event on. Glad to see part of the car park now under cover, bricked off and used for live events. 4 real ales on from Joules Brewery well kept but dont inspire. Especially when its dearer here than elsewhere and get a plastic flexi glass.

Popped in for a pint after the match. Fantastic service,staff very quick to serve as the place was very busy

Friendly place brilliant music and atmosphere top notch really enjoyed my time at the venue

Staff wonderful.. .food for wake very good. Would love to.come back. But we are not burger people xx but love the pub

Disappointingly poor beer, great food and dj set that surprisingly finished at 10

Can't believe we hadn't been here before. Great pub, super food which can be expensive. Brilliant service from friendly staff and Management. Our new favourite. Chicken wing Wednesday is great vfm.

Went on "wing Wednesday", best chicken wings I have had. Nice pint of Joules ale. Very nice young lady at the bar.

Portion sizes were a little on the small side. A more traditional pub menu would have been more appealing. Packets of snacks, such as salted peanuts, are not sold, cups of snacks are but they ran out!

The food was really good and the service was brilliant, will definitely be returning

Screen went down during the Euros final at half time, 100s of people with no way to watch the game from half time. No apology or reparation for a ruined experience and no communication from staff. Will not be visiting again

Omg who were the DJs last night from 8pm?? Absolutely amazing and totally gave the evening class with quality tunes. Probably the best I've ever heard in Codsall!!

Excellent food at reasonable prices. Service was fast, efficient, and friendly. Good experience, thoroughly recommend.

Thank you! We loved “wing” Wednesdays ! Lovely evening and friendly, welcoming staff! Loved the cauliflower wings and I’m not even a vegetarian ! Will definitely come again !

Have visited twice over the last month. It’s a great place. Some lovely ales on tap and the food has been really delicious. It became one of my ‘go to’ places after the first visit. We’ll be back.

I recently visited the crown joules and was pleasantly surprised by the great service and delicious food offerings. The staff at the crown were friendly, attentive, and went out of their way to ensure that my experience was enjoyable. Whether it was recommending a drink or checking in on how my meal was, the service was top-notch. Overall, I had a fantastic time and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a laid-back atmosphere, good service, and tasty food. It's a great spot to unwind with friends or family.

We go here once a month for the LIBRARY SESSIONS!!! And my goodness is it a fantastic night. The music and the people are amazing everyone is havibg fun and dancing together, it truly is an incredible night, when you have chance get down to the Crown joules for one of the library sessions events and you won't regret it! It's an amazing night. The pub itself also is lovely and the food looks fantastic, the outdoor area is gorgeous so even outside of the events it is a lovely place to go to!

Good beers and regular entertainment

A massive Thankyou for a really good night. We reserved the Maritime room for my sons 21st birthday celebration.I was really impressed that all the food was brought out when required and was perfect. I could not fault the service and all the staff were polite, efficient and helpful. Thankyou Ella for making my sons 21st birthday celebration special.

Sunday lunch for a family of four birthday meal. Part of meal was hot and other parts cold. I like veg al dente but these were undercooked Shame as heard good reviews but not our experience for quality of food.

Went out out and popped in here. Good choice of drinks, good atmosphere. Didn't eat. Will pop in again fo sho

Again food lovely - came in on a Friday night - great atmosphere place was packed - ordered food, arrived piping hot and delicious - couldn’t fault the service - will definitely be returning soon

Very spacious lots of rooms, a bit cramped by gents with tables and dart board

A great pub, with a good choice of beers and ales on tap. All staff were very friendly and the overall atmosphere was very welcoming. We didn't eat, but the food reviews are equally as good, so we'll definitely try the food next time.

Food when it comes is great but seems to be focused on drinkers. No table service so you have to queue at the bar for a while to order. Then it doesn’t come out at a similar time. Between 8 of us our food came in the space of 30 minutes meaning some had well finished before others started. Also 30 minutes after ordering we were told that we couldn’t now actually have what we ordered as they had run out. Won’t go back, shame as the food was very good.

Went here for lunch with some work friends. A bit overpriced in my opinion but the food was nice and service was good.

We where party of 10 and and we had amazing time.. the food was fantastic I don’t think we even finish all as it was set menu with mix roast plates and loads of side dishes in middle of table to share. Also shout out for nonalcoholic Prosecco as few of our part members was driving and still wanted to cheers with rest of team. Thank you for having us and we will start planing our next visit. Tums up 100%

Nice pub in a good location with plenty of parking, drinks very expensive and service generally poor, should be a lot better than it actually is, can't comment on food as haven't eaten there as yet. Overall it's ok that's all.

Went on Good Friday for a spot of early dinner it was very busy, we had booked a table the night before, yet this had not been organised so a Family was sadly turfed out of their table (where they were enjoying drinks), no sign had been put on table for our reservation until we actually arrived, to make clear to any patrons that it was reserved from a certain time. This happened again to another family sitting nearby enjoying drinks who were asked to vacate their table that they were occupying as it appeared the reservations had not been organised in advance.(they rightly refused but it makes it uncomfortable for both the current table occupiers and the reserver) Menus were tatty and stained and this made the food uninspiring so we ate food from the Pop Up Street Food outlets on the carpark (this was good and a great idea). Bar was unorganised with bar staff not being allocated areas, bar itself was sopping wet (bar mats or trays had not been put out) and when you eventually did get near bar you got wet. Poor choice of Wine also. Medicine Bakery has such a good reputation and is inspiring - this is not, we had planned to make a night of it, but left early as didn`t feel comfortable.

This is my third time coming for Sunday lunch and every time has been high quality, fresh food, friendly staff and great atmosphere. This week we had the lamb special and sticky toffee pudding. Left feeling full and satisfied. Really great to see the new management thriving!

Amazing sunday lunch, service was just as good and a great overall experience. Food came out very quickly considering how big of a table we had. Definitely coming back!

I recently went to the Crown for a roast dinner with family and it was hands down the best Sunday lunch out we’ve had in years. The staff were very welcoming and the service was very quick. Can’t recommend enough and will definitely be returning!

First time here for Sunday roast and got to say food and service was amazing 👏 thank you

lovely staff, roast dinner was lovely- best i’ve had in a long time. considering we were a large table food came out quickly- was warm and definitely high quality. would recommend to anyone. so well run

Visited yesterday with friends for Sunday Lunch , we had high hopes as we are regular customers for social events & we’ve all eaten at Medicine which is an excellent bakery. So disappointing that they’ve missed the opportunity to serve quality food . We all ordered the same roast beef with all the trimmings as extra sides. They arrived warm served in mini cast iron pots which were cold ! roast beef was not pink as described on the menu ( mine was actually green on the edges , see pic) we all sent it back for it to return hot as if microwaved, the slices of beef were all the same as if sliced on a machine rather than hand carved , 3 roast potatoes ( 2 were cremated, hidden under a huge caramelised carrot. Our waitress was very short with us & we just wanted to leave. The bill was reduced, which we paid. Shame as this place should be a little gold mine , staff training in hospitality is much needed. Cauliflower cheese was the delicious.

£10 for a burger that come with no fries… Not great value for money. Burger was room temp as well. Still hungry. Only positive is that there was a nice dog running round the pub.

Lovely Sunday lunch not enough gravy on plates asked for more got charged a extra 5 .50 .

Visited for my mums birthday on a Saturday evening. Unfortunately, we left feeling extremely disappointed and we will not be returning. I did think it would be half decent upon booking as I knew that Medicine were now part owners. Having said that, whenever we have visited Medicine codsall the staff were always very short and abrupt. So it was great to see that at least something was consistent, if it wasn’t the food! The girls in the dining area were unfriendly and it seemed to be a chore when we asked them to put more wood on the fire. First of all, I think if you have booked for food, I think you should receive some sort of ‘table service’ instead of having to fight at the bar to get drinks and then again to order food. Food was very disappointing. Ordered the ‘frickles’ to start. But it just looked as though they had put all the rubbish in the deep fat fryer and served it up on a plate - there were even loose chips thrown in. Garlic pizza was awful - no garlic or garlic butter to be found. You can’t just bake bread and cover it in rocket with the hope customers won’t notice. Clues in the name - garlic bread! Ordered two dirty Asian fries with added chicken. Portions were tiny for £10 - the chicken was hard and overcooked. We also ordered one portion of Chilli fries. Portion was huge - no consistency! Again, loads of dry fries with rubber cheese sauce and a dollop of lukewarm chilli on top. Drinks were okay and the lady behind the bar was very helpful hence the two stars. Sadly, I will not be returning. I think they may have got a little too big for their boots. Taking on a few too many things at once (Birmingham mailbox, Selfridges, joules & the codsall bakery) such a shame as once upon a time it was the ‘place to be’.

Great Sunday dinner! Great beer. I had the veggie 🥦 option and my other half chicken 🍗, both lovely.

Excellent Sunday lunch, excellent service. Generous portion sizes and everything tasted delicious!

£5 for a pint of Carling? Disgusting, won't be going back there anytime soon! It's just a pub pretending to be an expensive restaurant, overcharging for mediocre food, don't think it will last as there is a lot of competition within half a mile of this pub!

Disappointed with "wings" Wednesday sadly.

Beautiful tasty Sunday roast. Really amazing great service friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended

Called in as been meaning to for a while the pub is nicely set out lots of room beer very good some good IPA’s food well it’s something to do with the cafe down the road which Iam not a fan of written a review on that some time ago mainly around the cleanliness of the place not a huge choice burgers various kinds pizzas and the day we were there specials of chicken wings various flavours we had a fish burger and beef it was ok hope they are more cleanliness focused a shame really an opportunity to do something different with the catering on site to compliment the beer.

Just had Sunday dinner at The Crown in Codsall the food was great the staff were ok the atmosphere was poor children running round the restaurant area very noisy not a cheap place to eat wouldn't recommend going on a Sunday for a quiet meal not what I expected.

Came for a family lunch, gotta say it was beautiful, staff were so friendly and helpful, compliments to the chef Rob for making the food the most delicious Sunday roast I've had for a long time. My hubby had the doughnut sandwich too for pudding which he said was one of the best he'd ever had, and he's a big desert person, well done to the chef and his team 👏 👍

Francesca and her staff laid on an amazing spread for my father in laws wake. They gave us so much time beforehand whenever we wanted to know things when they were constantly reassuring, it all went so smoothly even catering for one of our guests who needed gluten free. We had the Library Room which was perfect with its own bar and we were allowed to use our own music. Thanks so much everyone, you really helped the day end nicely and all commented on how nice it all was. The cakes were sublime and the savouries sooo delicious.

WE held my Fathers wake here on 12th Feb 2024, and it could not have been better , food was great , room at back was great and staff superb, highly recommend!

Dwight on the door was one of the kindest most helpful Dorman I have ever been exposed to. We had a terrible experience with an Uber driver. He was very offensive and refused our trip and left us in the rain. Dwight supported us throughout and made sure we were safe before we got in a second Uber vehicle. Dwight deserves a pay rise he is credit to the venue! 👑 apart form glorious Dwight, the cocktails were fantastic too.

Beer in poor condition. I visit quite a few Joules pubs - nearly all are excellent. This one must be embarrassing for the brewery who have worked the Oracle to get where they are today. Just shocking really.

It's about £40-50 for two people definitely worth while the staff are so helpful and caring and check on you wether your on your mains or puddings the food is really good wish their was a few more dessert options though serving is spot on in my opinion and the atmosphere is relaxing and calming

My local. Best its been in my lifetime since the recent improvements. Great food. Good drinks. Good service. Nice atmosphere and the improved outdoor area is a real plus. Always a good place to go for a couple or a few and for something to eat.

We had the room at the back of the Crown for a wake. Buffet was amazing. Staff very efficient and friendly. We will definitely be back to try the food in the bar. Thank you Francesca and staff

Food was amazing, good verity of drinks and prices are decent. Would definitely recommend anyone to go and we will certainly be back.

Amazing venue run by clowns. A professional establishment should have experienced management and staff but the young (wannabe chav) manager couldn’t organise a child’s party. Rude bar staff and appears to be staff concentrate on the young chavvy locals , maybe family friends, instead of paying decent guests. Would not recommend this place. We visited when it first opened and had a great experience with experienced bar staff and a great manager. It now seems like management and staff are playing at running a restaurant and real ale boozer. The ale wasn’t kept well and not conditioned right, I’m sure Joules would not wznt to put there name snd reputation to this drivel. The manager, Ella, seemed clueless about keeping good ales and beer. If the ‘manager’ didn’t have a clue about cask ales in an ale boozer then time to give the place up to new owners. Rubbish experience, rubbish manager, rubbish food, rubbish ale…..save your money and go to McDonald’s for better service and food

Nice and local with super street food

Had a lunchtime buttermilk chicken burger. Bit small and £4 for fries expensive.

Went for my bro in laws 50th! Really nice place, good atmosphere, and really good local beer 🍺 Big pub nicely decorated and really nice friendly people. Well worth a visit if your around that way. Food was really good too. I tried the Vegan hotdog, that was bangin, and there were a few more vegan options. All food looked great!!! 👌

Nice place, clean and well presented, friendly staff anf a good selection of beers

Nice dog friendly pub. Very friendly staff (to both humans and dogs!). Nice food from Medicine Bakery. Would definitely visit again.

Excellent location to relax and chill or meet with friends and enjoy amazing food.

We booked the library room for a family celebration. Three of us arrived 30 mins early to decorate the room and were welcomed with a lovely coffee and the beautiful roaring fire. We had ordered the buffet which offered a great selections of items and was fabulously presented. Everyone commented on the quality of the food and there was loads.....so much so our guests were taking home food boxes which they kindly provided us with. With many small children having the room to ourselves was tremendous I would recommend to anyone looking for a lovely revenue for a party!!

Extremely disappointed that my burger came out raw. I only noticed after eating half of it to see the other patty bright pink, we sent both burgers back and the chef seemed to admit it was below standard. We were offered another burger or something else but completely off our food now and left feeling sick - anticipating getting sick - and frustrated. Won’t be returning to any medicine branded establishment again.

Recently refurbished, looks very nice , not too busy on a Tuesday night, but enough for a good atmosphere.

It’s nice inside and the potential is there for it to be really good. Just a shame about the food and service. We had a table of 5, drinks orders were extremely slow, and food was not great. I had the duck, was £18 for a dry warm-ish plain duck leg, slaw, and fries, all very bland so don’t recommend the duck. Final bill was very expensive and didn’t feel it was worth it. Also they required a deposit on booking and when I called in advance to reduce the party size they said they should charge me but they’d let me off! It’s just a pub.. definitely put me off going back.

Unfortunately not a great visit. Service was good from the one worker on her own however the food was terrible. Ordered the Medicine burger and it came out Mooing. The Burger was undercooked and still pink and bloody throughout. The server took the food back and returned with “The Chef said it’s his fault and it’s still raw and if we wanted him to make a new one” Was too off put due to this so left with empty stomachs.

Quaint old pub with a nice energy about it.

Great place to eat, service and food excellent, big car park out back

New food menus was lovely, but had run out of sourdough (table was 7.30pm) which was a shame with them being renowned for their bakery, really wanted tbs bread, lots of space and areas to drink/ eat in. Outside area is great since the refurb. When you arrive there is a table to greet you with a laptop but no one there, it’s confusing and then the bar staff refer you to the front table for your booking, would be good to either have someone permanently on the front to greet you or just have a sign to say order/ greet at the bar.

I tried the buffalo cauliflower wings, they were cold and very spicy but different! I had a bit of the margarita pizza and enjoyed it.

This was the first time going to the crown since the refurbishment. My partner and myself only went for a couple of drinks. We had one drink and left. The bar had spilt drinks all over it. None of the staff seemed concerned about this. We got our drinks and decided to sit outside as it was a bit of a miserable atmosphere inside. They have done a good job to the rear of the pub (looks nice) However that's the only, one good point. We decided to leave after our first drink and went opposite to the love and liquor. Much better atmosphere and drinks were cheaper too. I don't think I will be in a hurry to return.

Didn't try the food, as we did not know about the strict booking process. Interior setting was open plan with plenty of seating.

Went on weekend with family for lunch. Got greeted and was told that could sit anywhere apart from one table that was booked but when we went to sit in one area, we were told we could not as the tables were reserved! Despite being told it was "order at the bar", the table that was reserved recieved table service throughout their meal. As we were not informed and it was not clear regarding menu options for children, it was lucky we stumbled upon the kids menu that was located at the bar. The food was enjoyable enough but the loaded fries we ordered were below par. Lacked flavour and we both agreed that the they tasted like cheap oven fries. Disappointing experience considering how much we usually enjoy visiting medicine bakeries and anticipated visiting the crown for the first time.

Nicely renovated pub with lots of little snugs and cosy corners and a large beer garden

Overpriced since medicine took over. Small portions, food was average. Wouldn't go again.

Really great food and ambiance. Usually have to travel to Birmingham for this type of food so great to have this on the doorstep. Lovely, friendly staff

Went for food with a friend on Friday night had booked a table. We were seated straight away in the beautiful library, nice atmosphere in the pub walking through. Service was excellent and food was too. Not a massive choice but something a bit different to the norm which is why we went. Going again this weekend with my sister.

We live a stone's throw away from The Crown. We looked forward to giving the newly reopened place a go.... Not sure what to make of it really, only half full on Saturday evening with little atmosphere. Same good range of drinks as before except more expensive now. We tried the food, nice but overpriced and not much of it. Not sure what they're aiming for here, especially with so much choice around Codsall...Maybe live music nights would be more appealing to us. I'm not saying "never again." It was only one drink though before we headed to the vibrant and welcoming bar opposite for the rest of the night...

I visited this place solo the day before going with my family to celebrate a birthday. I was one of the first customers at lunchtime and the beer was indifferent although replaced without argument. Prior to renovation one could get sandwiches or similar at lunchtime no more burger or hot dog was offered I declined. I visited the next night with family to celebrate the birthday. We placed our order and asked for a side of nachos to dip as a starter. Were told that they don't do starters all food is delivered together so didn't order the nachos. Waited sometime for order to arrive and my grandson's wanted something to nibble, my daughter-in-law went to the bar and found neither bar staff or any evidence of crisps or similar so went to the nearby Co-op to purchase crisps. The boys ate the crisps before their pizzas arrived we then waited 5 minutes for the 2 orders of burgers to arrive and a further 10 minutes for the last 2 pizzas to appear. So much for all food is served together! We also had to search for cutlery and napkins ourself and remind the waiting-on staff if they could be found to bring a large jug of iced water. The burgers and pizzas were OK. To sum up if you want to eat reasonable burgers or pizzas with your fingers washed down with so-so beer then have to wipe your greasy fingers on your clothing this is the place for you. That of course is problematic if you come by car as parking is limited and I did not see any designated parking for disabled ot PRM customers. As an advertisement for both Medicine and Joules Brewery this is a failure.

We didn't eat. Nicely done renovation. Joules beers are not to my taste which is overall why I gave 3 star rating

Recently refurbished and looks excellent. Poor service. Long waits. Bill mix up. Need to really re look at staff levels and experience to bring the Medicine touch here.

Really nicely refurbished. Food was very average, excellent service tho The sort of boy racer/young drinker vibe is not their fault I’m sure. Will try it again next year.

Came here for a meal with some friends on a Friday evening. It was busy inside and outside. Staff were friendly and helped with any questions we had re drinks and food. The food was delicious, I had pizza and a side of chips. They are dog friendly as well so we could bring our furry friend along too.

Looked forward to seeing the Medicine brand in a pub, really not worth the wait, cant see what they have spent the money on, pub itself still looks very tired. Menu options very limited. Queso Beef has a small spoon full of dried beef which was inedible, fries looked like they were several days old McDonalds fries, cold and soggy! Pizza were minuscule and dry, needed cutting with a hammer and chisel A mix up by the staff over our bill left the waitress chasing us across the road for the extra money, all very confusing and amateur Bouncers on the door overlooking us eating our meal was a bit overwhelming Certainly won't be returning

First time and long awaited visit to Medicine at the Crown in Codsall. Service is a little odd, very quick to take orders for drinks and food and then not seen again with drinks for over 30 mins (we had to ask for our drinks). 2 of us ordered chicken burgers, 1 duck leg confit - duck leg was tasteless and both burgers were raw!!!! Substandard and quite frankly not expected for this type of establishment. Both meals were sent back and management apologised, nearly another 30 mins wait before replacement food arrived. Again, one was undercooked and tasted awful and the other one was covered in a strange white gloopy sauce (was supposed to be Korean bbq). Chips were strange, almost like leftover fries, cold floppy and undercooked. Again, both meals sent back and at this point neither of us wanted to eat anything else. Drinks were offered, again took 30 mins to arrive and 2 of them missing. Really disappointed with our visit, as visited both the wolves town centre branch and codsall bakery many times. Jennifer dealt with our issues and cleared the bill and was very apologetic. Such a shame, as the menu appears lovely on the piece of paper just doesn’t live up to expectations once it’s on the plate! We shan’t visit again, which is a real shame.

Basing my stars from 1 experience on a very busy Friday evening. I felt like I spent my evening alone whilst my partner went off to get the drinks, the queues were very timely at the bar- this really needs to be addressed! We ordered food which took about an hour to arrive. My partner had chicken burger and chips, he said the burger was really nice but the chips were cold and like rubber. I had pizza but had to send it back due to being undercooked dough!! Second attempt was really nice though. They had a live band and the atmosphere was really good. Overall a really good pub with hard working staff that just need to address a few teething issues.

Nice pub decor a bit off the wall which I like but could do with a good clean and too many flies buzzing around for me to have any food. But definitely worth a visit.

I booked a table for my birthday a month or so before the date - Bank holiday Monday. The staff had no copy of the menu for me and it was not on the website. They saw me taking photos of the menu for my family. I booked the table on line and gave my details for the deposit of £5 a head. I tried to call but the number provided was out of action. I returned 2 weeks before my birthday to confirm. They had the number of guests wrong so lucky I checked and they also confirmed that it was for a birthday. When we arrived the items we fancied were not on the menu and there was only 1 dessert. The waitress said more may be sent by the cafe. The food, mainly pizzas was not the best, the sourdough is really hard and difficult to eat. I asked if there were more dessert choices at 730 and was told- in a very blase manner -that the kitchen was closed. This is totally unaccceptable- if we had known about the lack of choice we would have gone elsewhere. To make matters worse 2 service charges were snuck onto the bill totaling 21%! When I called to complain the lady I spoke to was apologetic and returned my service charge. Unfortunately my birthday celebration was completely ruined. The staff had ample opportunity to tell me that there was a limit to the food they would provide but didn't bother.

Visited on a recommendation. The beer courtyard was busy but not packed. I ordered the buttermilk chicken sandwich. The bar staff were polite, but the female member of staff chose to ignore me waiting and served someone who she clearly knew before me. The sandwich arrived with a weird tasting dressing. The chicken itself was a chicken thigh that was tough in the same places and almost pink in others. The dressing was almost non-existent, and who puts gherkins on a chicken sandwich!! However, the waitress who cleared my table - Myah (hope I spelt that correct) was a delight. Warm smile, asked how the food was, and apologised on behalf of the restaurant.

Nice place but don't like prices £5-00 a pint is rather expensive

Really nice pub and setting, very nicely done out. Great selection of Joules draught, and decent menu. Personally, the food was good but not great. I had the buttermilk chicken burger which I was expecting to be chicken breast but was some gnarled up bit of chicken that was far smaller than the bun. Fries were disappointingly average too. Decent sized car park to the rear and a nice large beer court.

Was excited to try this after it had changed hands but was sorely disappointed. Service is incredibly poor - with the staff just seeming incredibly disorganised and confused (I would presume due to a lack of training). Some very strange decisions made with putting ketchup in Grolsch style pop - open bottle which, given the viscosity of ketchup resulted in it going all over our table when opened and food that, while ok, wasn't of the kind of standard I would have expected for the price and was oddly inconsistent with the temperature (I had the beef Queso where parts were hot and others tepid). Feels like a venue where someone has had a lot of ideas that look good on paper but don't seem to work in practice. Hopefully it can improve over time.

Visited for lunch. Excellent friendly service. Comfortable setting with a lovely menu. I tried something new off the menu. It was hard to choose only because all the dishes sounded amazing. The food was so tasty and portions were substantial I couldn’t finish it all so was provided with a box to take away what I had left. A great asset to the village we will be returning.

So sad to be writing this... no atmosphere... took ages to get served, and the pub was not busy. Staff need to smile and engage positively. Hubby chose three different ales and none were exceptional. On the upside we were greeted by a smiling gentleman, I think he was greeting the diners... well done that man! We were there for drinks only.

8 of us went to the crown for food last night and had a great meal . Excellent service , massive portions and the food was amazing and fair price. Definitely go again and can’t wait for them to do Sunday lunch

What a nice place, food was fantastic and the staff were so friendly especially Mya who was lovely and recommended us some nice food. Many thanks we’ll be back soon, Helen and Andrew.

We have been twice now each time there is no one at the bar and it is nearly impossible to get served at the bar . Everyone sitting near us was saying the same. People complaining about poor food. Big groups of young boys. Bouncers...

Lovely place to sit, eat and chill. The new outside area is lovely with plenty of room to sit under cover if the weather turns. We had the lamb flatbread and chicken burger which were so nice. Not your run of the mill pub food. Saw the pizzas coming out and they looked lovely too.

A beer and a pork pie £12!!!! Outrageous and to top it the beer was awful. I love Joules beer and this was a real disappointment.
