Christmas Day meal,I booked the meal under the conditions stated by The Crown which was payment in full not refundable.A Christmas gift for my daughter and her husband. We could not fault the meal or the service , But when we were ready to leave a member of staff with a list told us we needed to pay, which was extremely embarrassing. Fortunately I had my iPhone with me and after some time searching found the receipt. Completely spoilt the experience.

Absolutely lovely country pub on archetypal village Green. We visited for Sunday lunch. Huge portions of well cooked food. The steak and ale pie was fabulous with perfect short pastry and rich gravy. If you manage to have space for dessert be prepared for more huge portions. The interior was spacious with comfy chairs and roaring fires. Dogs welcome. Friendly staff. Recommended.

We are really happy to see James the chef back. Whilst everyone has pitched in, doing an amazing job whilst James was away it?s great to see him back preparing some amazing meals. For our recent meal had steak and ale pie with mash which was delicious and reasonably priced. Best pub food around in our opinion. Well done everyone, you make our local very special.

Very good food,drinks and service.me my wife and our dog went to the pub for Sunday lunch. We was told that there was a area inside where we could sit with our dog, my wife had a Sunday roast of beef with all the trimmings and I had a big burger and chips, we both said how lovely our meals were. The staff who served us were all very nice and nothing was any trouble, I would recommend this place to anyone who are looking for somewhere to eat in the area .

Our first visit - certainly not our last. The food was excellent with a wide choice from a variety of food types. The decor was stylish yet also had the feel of a local pub and the staff were attentive and professional. We had a great evening.

Nice spot, nice staff, however take some advice. Don't order the sharing seafood platter. £28 for a few pieces of fried fish and a small portion of cockles... Mean.

Had a truly fantastic Sunday lunch. Lovely tomato and garlic soup, roast turkey with all the trimmings and an exceptional lemon cheesecake accompanied by limoncello, delicious. Will be back soon.

Visited for Sunday lunch with my parents. Very friendly and welcoming staff, nice atmosphere and pleasant food. The Sunday lunch was generous and well presented, with fresh vegetables of carrots, kale and broccoli, however neither the food nor the plates were particularly hot which was a shame as the food cooled very quickly. The desserts were very good though. All in all, a pleasant meal, but next time, please make sure the food arrives at the table hot!!

We had a delicious roast dinner today. Food was delicious, service was excellent and price was good. My roast Turkey was cooked to perfection and it came with all the trimmings - a very generous portion. I will definitely return and would recommend.

Visited for Sunday Lunch. The restaurant was freezing.....yes it was a very cold day and yes the cost of heating has increased considerably but it made the room uninviting and not a place for having a relaxed meal. Staff were pleasant but very young(18-20) I would guess and clearly not experienced in service or communication with customers.....no personality and no conversation. Food was ok apart from rock hard roast potatoes that appeared to have been cooked the day before and reheated. Oh...and if you are going to provide extra gravy in pots dont place the pots on the plate in the middle of the food we were about to eat. We had desserts which again were ok although every dessert came with ice cream no custard.....us British love our custard.The ice cream accompliment was the smallest of scoops and mine had split and was grainy in texture. Would we go back?....maybe to try again but we will wait to spring or summer my feet might have thawed out from the cold by then.

We ate in the restaurant for an evening meal which was decorated lovely for Christmas. The fire was roaring which added to the ambiance. We found the menu had lots of verity but wasn?t overwhelming. Everything was presented perfectly and we could not fault the food. Everyone said their food was delicious throughout. Although on the higher end of pricing, the portions were sized according to this so no issues with paying slightly more than other places. The mussels and pheasant were stand out favourites on our table. Deserts were also really large portions, the cheese board could have been halted and it still would have been worth the money. When it came to the end of our meal there was a 10% service charge added to the bill (we had seen this on the menu already). This added around £15 to our total. We decided as a table to leave a cash tip of slightly less as personally we found the table service wasn?t the best we had experienced. We felt slightly forgotten and the staff gave the impression they?d rather be somewhere else. We paid the total without the gratuity and were told there was the remaining left to pay, we said sorry for the confusion but we want to remove the gratuity to which we had a snappy response before we could even explain we were leaving it separately. This changed the whole dynamic of our evening and left a sour taste. We decided against leaving a tip at all after this. I feel the kitchen staff have lost out as a result of the front of house staff on this occasion. Regardless of the staff on this particular evening, the food really was lovely and I will recommend the restaurant.

Food was a little pricy but was very good We Sat in the restaurant which was VERY cold,one small fan heater set at one end of the room really didn?t lift the temperature enough. Service was slow and inattentive. Waiting staff need to be trained to show appreciation to customers if they wish them to return as they are the forefront of the business.
