The best restaurants serving British food in Crown East Staffordshire West Midlands

Has a separate vegan section on the menu, with well planned dishes. The vegan cottage pie is beautiful, served with veggies. Chocolate & orange tart for dessert was also yummy. I liked the fact some thought had been put onto the vegan options…. It wasn’t just falafel which a lot of non vegan places resort to (I hate falafel now 😂) Friendly service and my dog was welcome

Having worked at Hoar cross hall for the last three months and visiting the Lancaster cafe every day cannot recommend this hidden gem any more than the 5 stars it has. Tina Janet and Trouble! Have looked after us no end and will help with anything on the menu. The specials are always cracking too. Enjoy. Many thanks Ian and the gang

First visit and def not our last. Basically how a pub should be. Not sport in any way. Lovely atmosphere lovely staff and above everything else lovely food. Even though busy not a particularly long wait. Appreciate a Saturday night so other nights may not have the same atmosphere but I will be trying another night soon.

Located on the main Lichfield to Ashbourne road, the main bar at the Swan remains a traditional, largely unspoilt place to come and enjoy a convivial drink. Lovers of real unspoilt pubs will, no doubt, enjoy this space. The back section of the pub is somewhat more modernised and is focused mainly on food sales. The food here is very good, and reasonably priced too. There is an extensive menu, nothing over-ambitious, but the house speciality is the homemade pies - and excellent they are too. These are 'proper pies' - by that I mean they are fully encased in pastry (not just in a dish with a pastry lid), and there is a good selection available ranging from traditional pies such as Steak & Kidney to some more unusual choices. I opted for the aforementioned Steak & Kidney, a personal favourite, once the staple of all pub food menus but now becoming increasingly rare - and an excellent choice it proved to be. Pies come with mash or chips, a selection of fresh vegetables plus a jug of gravy. The one small negative about this pub is the selection of ales - Bass or Tribute at the time of our visit. I would like to have seen at least one ale from a small independent Local brewery on the bar. There is a small farm shop, mainly selling meat and meat products, adjacent to the pub.

Lovely Sunday lunch! 😊 Beef was cooked to perfection! All veg cooked just right. Everything was fresh and hot. Poppy recommend the restaurant to us , after she came into where I worked. 😊 She was very attentive , friendly and bubbly, all staff looked after us.
