The Crown in Stratford-on-Avon

Good food but had a couple of issues. We just wanted to find a local pub. The crown came up. Instead of a one mile we travelled five miles, due to road Closures. We parked up, paid the parking fee, which should have been redeemed inside which the bar staff never reimbursed us. After a drink we wanted to eat. Ask if we could get a table. We were asked if we booked. I replied no as we were told we didn’t have by the young girl behind the bar. It wasn’t busy, so there were plenty of tables. Our food took ages. I had ordered gravy with my fish & chips, which was really watery. After the meal I went to pay. The young girl looked at me and went to the other side of the bar. I waited patiently It was getting busy at the bar. The lady who showed us the table, called for help serve. The young girl went straight to the gentleman that had just arrived to get a another drink. But the other lady asked her to serve me. Reluctantly served me. The bill was £44.33. The watery peppercorn gravy cost £2.50. The Crown is a lovely pub, with good food. Staff just need to change their attitude.

It's our local but they're now ' at it'! Just checked a bill from an earlier meal + drinks for £80 - and a 10% service charge had been added! £8.00! And half of the bill was for drinks at £40 - which my husband physically went up to the bar to order - and HE brought to the table!! If I want to be pedantic, I should go back and request a £4.00 refund on 'the service' we didn't receive. But you know what....we won't bother eating there again....and the drinks at a social club local to the pub are 35 - 45% cheaper so they will have our future business! Just Beware! Don't set up a tab for drinks - and maybe pay for your food ' at the bar'. It might be interesting if they try to add 10% at that point - for getting staff to do what they are already paid to do - and bring your plates to the table!! Not impressed!

I just visited this place and it has impressed me to such an extent that I am writing this review from right outside. Amazing and friendly atmosphere. The food was excellent and the service was just outstanding. The server was very humble, polite and very professional. We just walked in for a drink and ordered 2 portions of spicy loaded cheesy fries. 🔥 I am sure other options would be of the same quality. Looking forward to visit again next week with some more friends and would definitely be trying the same spicy loaded cheesy fries for sure.

We visited here on 19th March for food and we were very impressed. We were the only people in the restaurant and we were looked after very well and the food was delicious! Decent portions and prices Would definitely recommend! Thank you ☺️

Stopped in for a quick one en route to the Stratford Town game. Very amiable hostelry seemed quite family friendly and a pleasant enough pint.

Had a fantastic meal here while on a short break in the area. The Thai curry was fantastic and bonus that it was both GF and Vegan. My halloumi burger was also fabulous and nice and filling too with great chips. Would come again!

Poor food reheated meat. Reheated potatoes. Over boiled veggies. Disappointed! I have been there many times & it’s usually good. Beer good☹️

Visited today Sunday 2nd of July. Arrived to be totally ignored by bar staff. I was first at the bar and the barmaid decided to serve the chap next to me who arrived after, as they were old buddies! I walked straight out, but was convinced by my gf to go back in! Barmaid again served a chap who was after me first. Decided to stay and ordered two beef dinners and drinks. Food was v good, and Ben (if he’s not the bar manager he should be) gave us a complimentary drink after I complained about earlier. Ben was very busy but was very attentive and his service and manners were impeccable. We tipped Ben , unfortunately the tips are shared as the barmaid deserved zero. All in all a very nice pub with great food. Be careful of looking after the locals tho and ignoring walk ins! Well done Ben for great service and saving what would have been a walkout! Would have been 5 stars but the initial experience was not great! We will be back 👍

Good food at a reasonable price. Dog friendly which was great for us to take our dog with us. Staff friendly and very helpful

Great food, varied choice. Supported us having 3 small dogs. Ben the waiter was very polite and helpful. We have visited on a number of occasions and have never found fault. Would highly recommend

We visited for Sunday lunch which was excellent. The food was great quality and nicely served. It was so good we visited the following evening and again the food was superb. The roast beef on the Sunday was delicious with lovely, generous vegetable side dishes. The Monday night steak and chicken dishes were the same great quality as was the desert. A very traditional, community pub with good parking and a few minutes drive from the town centre. Great value for this quality. Highly recommended.

Really lovely food and service at reasonable prices, the crispy beef salad was my choice for main and it excelled my expectations, my wife had steak and really enjoyed it. Our starters were also lovely and the passion fruit cheesecake was a nice finish and really well presented. Would definitely go again if back in the area.

With spending a couple of night’s at Stratford Christmas Market, having found this little gem last year. Our return was eagerly awaited, what could you say about it, excellent food, brilliant variety of drinks and a larger than life landlord who ensures everyone is given a warm welcome. Four of us were eating 3 had the Christmas dinner and a steak with spicy chilli prawns, very rare between the 4 of us that the plates were empty without any complaints. Well done to everyone and as they say we’ll be back.

The staff are amazing. The prices are reasonable for both food and drink. The food is really good. I've been coming here for years as I work nearby, and am glad it has bounced back after lockdown.

Stopped here for the night in our motorhome in the car park. Had a meal on Saturday night there was an offer on 2 rumps steaks and a bottle of wine for £35. Bargain. Meals were excellent, I eat steak a lot and that rump was the best rump I’ve had. Always have fillet so was a bit undecided but as the offer was on and you would normally pay £20 to £30 for a bottle of wine I thought I’m not losing much if it’s tough. It was more like a very good sirloin steak absolutely perfectly cooked 1 medium and 1 medium rare. Beautiful peppercorn sauce with it aswell. Staff very friendly, great little pub 15 minutes walk away from the town centre. Can’t wait to go back again in the near future, highly recommend especially if you have a motorhome and stop over.

Stedet hvor man bliver taget godt imod. Der er altid nogle at falde i snak med.Maden er som på de fleste pubber i UK, god og ikke så dyr."Spillebule" og tv rum, med sport kørende konstant, er separeret fra spiseafsnittet, så man kan spise i fred for hujende sportsfanatikere.Personalet er venlige og imødekommende, og er lige som de fleste andre spisesteder i Tiddington, gode til at rådgive og svare på spørgsmål om maden.

La très belle façade à colombage attire l'oeil.Une fois entrée, pas de déception, l'accueil y est très chaleureux.

Went for a family meal very quiet, service was good can't fault that but my meal was very poor i had the beef and ale pie with side garlic ciabatta bad choice. the menu states 'Homemade beef and ale pie with shortcrust pastry top,vegetables, jug of fab gravy and homemade chips or mash'. sadly the end product wasn't up to scratch presentation is everything this looked like it had been defrosted and was thrown on the plate, beef was good pastry not so, garlic ciabatta was served in a basket but i didnt realise in till i got to the last piece that the basket was covered with GLITTER. why? horrified this isnt the first time ive had a bad meal at the crown and i shall not be eating here again..
