Went here for a drink half way around a walk. Very smart pub with a lovely garden and a good range of beer. Didn't try the food but the menu looked good.

Brilliant outdoor dining area with massive space for kids to blow off steam. Great food, on the pricey side but when you factor in the facilities and setting it's actually decent value.

Food babies likely<br>If you have three courses, generous portions, a bit heavy on deep frying. Or perhaps it was just our choices. But I was relieved the ice cream was not deep fried! Beautiful setting, good service. A little echoing for a large group, as noise can increase off bare walls. Lovely gardens.

Venue great, lovely outside area with lots of picnic tables. Food in general is good,BUT, there isn't any chicken on the menu, as a non red meat eater and the quality of the pork is poor and not really wanting fish for Sunday dinner I found the choose rather limited. But everything else is great, and the young girls serving are polite and efficient.

After a 5.5 mile ramble around Hartest and Somerton on a rainy, windy day in October, my colleague and I were looking forward to lunch. We had been allowed to leave our cars in the pub car park beforehand which was a great help.
On entering the Crown, the first thing I noticed was a roaring fire and a cosy lounging area to the left and then the bar immediately in front of us. This is a very welcoming pub and the layout and decor is excellent. It was not particularly busy during our visit, but I can easily imagine it would be a very popular venue in the evening.The lunch menu is not extensive but nevertheless provides a good variety and I found a number of dishes to my liking. I settled for liver and bacon which was excellent, while my colleague had the steak burger which he enjoyed greatly. Sadly, we both felt too full to indulge in what looked to be some very attractive puddings and settled for a coffee instead.
I have to say the staff were very helpful and attentive and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I feel another ramble coming on, and next time I shall leave room for one of those puddings. I have eaten at a number of country pubs in the last few years and the Crown is definitely up there with the best.

Not visited the establishment for some time and was pleasantly surprised with the changes made.
There was a new raised seating area in the main bar area and that was where our table was. The comfortable bench seating was idea with plenty of space.
On arrival drinks were served quickly and efficiently and we were shown to our reserved table.
The service was done with a smile even though were not ready on the first occasion.
The starters were large and tasty and reasonably priced.
The mains of which there was a varied selection, including as it was a Friday that we visited, discount for over 60’s on the fish and chips!!
Our party chose four different meals and they were served in good time and there were no complaints from anyone, indeed there was praise. There was just enough to satisfy and the cost very reasonable.
The desserts were chosen, and although slightly on the expensive side, were well presented and very enjoyable.
A very enjoyable evening in good pleasant surroundings.

Friendly gastropub, with good food, excellent wine list available by the glass as well as bottle and great for meeting and chatting with friends over dinner. Beer selection disappointing especially bearing in mind they have a micro-brewery in BSE
