Stopped here on Sunday lunch time, there was no atmosphere at all. But we stopped due to the little one needing feeding.My partner and i had a roast, it was very poor. All reheated and the gravy with it was as black as tar and no flavour. Since Sunday evening we both haven't not been well and only meal we both ate the same as each other to both be poorly.

Four of us and our dog stopped here for evening meal. Disappointed to find that two of our starters and a main unavailable. What we did have was good and portions were on the large side.Real ale and wine all good.We ate outside where there is a nice garden.

We were looking for a meeting point where we could relax with our dogs and our relatives. We chose this pub and we were surprised as the garden is well laid out, excellent seating not too close to each other.Then we ordered food, it was very very good.We will be back very soon.The staff were very friendly and helpful.Best bit, it has become a Free House, great beer too.

The Crown is such a nice pub the three people (2xF, 1xM) working behind the bar on Saturday evening 20th July were exceptional, super friendly, helpful and really hard working. The food was different from your usual pub fare but the butternut squash and beetroot cobbler was one of the best pub meals I’ve had in a long time. Popped back in there Sunday afternoon and sat in the sunshine in their large and quirky garden. This is the sort of pub I’d love as my local and that says it all. Thanks and well done to all involved

Stopped off here to get refreshments as we had been hiking for a couple of hours.Decide to have a pint of lager which was very nicely welcomed.Then, we decided we would have a bite to eat, which was garlic mushrooms with potatoes skinned fries.I had 10 mushrooms, and my wife had 9, so I thought, what a bonus that was until I got the aftertaste.Couldn't really taste the garlic, but was left with a taste of fat🤢.The mushrooms were £9.00 plus bowl of fries for £4.00. Now I don't mind paying good money as long as I get a good return, which I clearly didn't.I could have complained, but this would have only been a resolution for myself and my wife. I feel that if you are in a position of serving food, then it should always be presentable and tasty.Please take guidance from this to help other customers enjoy their meals.

We visited The Crown while on a barge holiday. There were six of us and we were all impressed. The staff were friendly and the service good. As for the food it was well cooked and presented well. I had the slow cooked pork and it was tender and well cooked. We all said we would definitely return if in the area again. I would highly recommend The Crown.

Dropped in as we were passing the day after a night out. Good welcome, nice beer garden, good food. Wonderful interior decor including marvelous antique cat replicas (not actually taxidermy!) #frescos

We have visited this restaurant on Bank holiday Sunday. I have picked 3 item from the menu , what was not available. Then we ordered a stake - what was £20 but the portion was a smallest I ever seen not even peppercorn sauce. I ordered Veggie burger ,what was so plain, no flavour, no noting. Was so disappointed as it was nice traditional pub, and for that price , I would expect more and better quality.

What a joy to see standards are being kept up in this splendid place. My Wife and I brought Her Dad here a while ago. He was a Chelsea Pensioner and dressed in His full scarlet uniform brought the whole pub to a standstill.The generosity and respect shown by the (then) staff has stayed with Us. Wishing you All the best of wishes, Andy and Maggie, East Bristol.

A good local pub for a drink but the food isn't great, particularly considering the price point. The vegetarian food really isn't good at all and the kids tomato pasta is just a tin of chopped tomato's poured over spaghetti.....no effort made to produce a decent sauce. Another small gripe is that the ancient Heinz Ketchup bottles are obviously refilled with a cheap brand.The bar staff are always good.....attentive and chatty.My real issue lately is that there is clearly someone on site who either lives or works there.....perhaps both, who smokes weed and the pub stinks of it! I have no problem with someone doing so but I don't need to smell it around the bar area while I'm with my family. Unfortunately it's meant us heading a little further to the Northey Arms.

We booked a table last Sunday at short notice. The staff were very friendly, and helpful. The food was delicious, hot and a very varied menu especially for a a Sunday menu. The staff where friendly and welcoming and they accommodated all 4 adults and a baby in a High Chair. Highly recommended.

Lived in Bath for years & has never been inside until yesterday. What a great place! Lad behind bar was friendly, very accommodating & provided excellent service. Food was delicious and the chef took full account (and more) of my (numerous) dietary needs. Thoroughly enjoyed my lunch. Prices very reasonable in my opinion.

Went for a Sunday lunch with friends. Absolutely beautiful food. The portions were amazing (though 2 Yorkshire puddings would have been better!) and everyone praised the vegetables. Service was impeccable and we even had puddings as we didn't want to leave. 2 and a half hours later we headed home very full and very happy. Well worth the drive.

A fantastic little place. We went to visit the University and took a chance before the 4hr drive home. It did not disappoint. It was delicious and reasonably priced! Obviously got dessert too! My son was so amazed by it too, the honey chicken was fabulous 👌
