   Wonderful space. Really helpful and friendly staff. Let us sit around playing games afterwards too with no onward bookings. Thanks guys!!! Only reason for not 5* food is limited veggie options. Value of food very, very fair for the quality of food and venue, but does add up fast if on three courses.

   In short Christmas Day Lunch. Service between 4 courses far too long, taking over 4 hour We skipped the 4 course as we were not happy to wait another hour . Food was average. Not cooked well. Veg under cooked, Roast Potatoes were over cooked and leathery skins. Over priced at £150 per person. We had 2 small glasses of wine and was charged £25. Ripped off and won't be returning for Christmas Day lunch again.

   Christmas dinner was overall ok.. 2 hours for the 1st 2 courses was a very long wait with the dinner taking 4 hours overall. The 2nd sitting arriving were obviously frustrated with the delays and patron complaints to staff somewhat spoiled the dinner as we were sat near the bar and could not help but hear ongoing complaints. Although the initial courses were good and the deserts also, the main course was a disappointment as the celebration dish amd served luke warm. Veg seemed that had been standing for a while, roast potatoes over cooked, and limited sauces provided (1small pot of cranberry sauce between 6 and we had to request a 2nd jug of gravy). Overall a disappointment, service staff worked hard and tried to compensate (althpugj obviously u ser pressure to expedite turning the tables and service started pushing, including clearing plates whilst people at our table still eating) but as a customer that has eaten at the restaurant a few times, for the cost vs. quality and experience this feels over priced and very disappointing. Appreciate things can go wrong but the lack of communication and reduction on quality is not what is expected for the cost charged.

   We recently dined at The Crowne Inn with a large group of 22 people, including 14 adults, eight children, and five infants, and the experience was outstanding. Martin’s patience and flexibility in accommodating our ever-changing bookings were remarkable. Managing a group of this size is no easy feat, but everything was handled seamlessly and professionally. Gracia was an exceptional host, ensuring everyone in our group was well looked after. Her attentiveness, warm hospitality, and impeccable service made the visit enjoyable. To top it off, the food was exquisite and exceeded all our expectations. The entire experience was flawless, and we are incredibly grateful to The Crowne Inn team for making our visit unforgettable. We wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a welcoming atmosphere, excellent service, and top-quality dining. We look forward to returning soon!

    Disappointing! No forewarning that they didn’t have the beef burger. The only cold main dish (salad) arrived 5 minutes after the other hot dishes. The ketchup arrived after the kids had finished their food. The steak was supposed to be medium. It was part med rare and part med well done.! We won’t be back again.
