    Incredible good food (esp. the venice and the apple-rhubarb crumble) and very hospitable staff. Cosy atmosphere with great music selection playing in the background. Can highly recommend.

    OMG we had the venison and it was so delicious, we immediately made another reservation for next week! The crown is a lovely pub, great service with a smile. We booked a rental in the area just so we can have a couple of diners here. 10/10! See you soon

    Lovely place, great beer. Fabulous menu but none of it quite delivered. Overcooked and some of it just a bit weird. Shame and disappointing. Think we might have just caught them on an off day and will try them again.

    The portions seems to be getting smaller than the prices are going up. There is a lack of imagination with regards to the menu. It would be nice to have a one or two special occasionally
