Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

This was our first visit to this amazing pup, greeted by a smart professional waitress called Darcy our service was wonderfully polite. The quality and choice of food exceptional catering for GF and DF meals. Darcy had amazing attention to detail making sure our gravy...and horseradish sauce were gluten free and safe to eat. The bar also had an excellent choice of beers, a great local pub which didn’t impact on our visit. Highly recommended for a family visit great food amazing service, a reasonably priced friendly restaurant. Looking forward to our next visit.More

The Sunday lunch is very popular, which is not surprising as it is very good. Plenty on your plate and a dish of seasonal vegetables as well. If you want a quick meal this is not the place to go, rather it is a place...that gives you the chance to enjoy a drink and conversation, just as it should be. The staff are friendly and helpful and make this a good place to go.More

Visited last minute tonight. Roughly 20 minutes before closing although you wouldn’t have known. We were made to feel soo welcome even though we were probably those annoying customers who turn up last minute and the end of the night 😅 We had a Rump...steak offer. Good price, great steak! My husband really enjoyed the wine pairing! Med-Rare recommended I love my fish and had the Sea Bream from the Fish Friday Specials. Cooked perfectly & great quality for the price! I would love the recipe for the sauce 😉 We joined the Gin Bar for an after dinner drink to finish the evening. We will be back!More

Bad bad experience. We often go out as a family for Sunday lunch and try different restaurants in the area. They’ve all been lovely so far until we went to The Crown. The manager in particular was very rude to me on two separate occasions,...he shouldn’t have been front of house. We were left for ages with dessert menus until they finally came back to us….I wouldn’t have minded so much but they were serving other tables which had been given their menus after us. The food was ‘ok’ but my food was undercooked. Won’t be going back or advising friends to go there.More

Had the pizza deal tonight, buy one and get one half price. Both pizza’s were badly burnt on the bottom and could only eat 3 slices of each. The “Veggie one” had a handful of green olives, uncut, thrown on the top looking like they...were forgotten when it was cooked! This will be the last takeaway I have from the Crown. Absolutely terrible!More

On arrival at the restaurant we found that a large private party had taken over the whole restaurant and we were put into a small unattractive room in an isolated location, when I made the booking the person taking the call should have made me...aware of this issue. A very poor experience due to the less than average environment and very average food. Very disappointing experience as we had a visitor from Leeds as our guest.More
